Incorrect, caustic to sarcastic humor, crazy situations, and above all, entertaining characters that quickly draw you into the world of illegal bookies and their clients with varying degrees of gambling addiction. If you ever had any illusions about the human species, you'll quickly forget them under the influence of…

The influence of Tim Burton is evident; at first glance, the slightly morbid and quirky artistic aspect of the project influenced by the Gothic style stands out. A major plus is the casting of the interesting and charismatic Jenna Ortega, who seems to have been born for the role of Wednesday; she perfectly fits the…

The initial reviews likened it to "something like Fargo, set in the middle of the Australian desert," and I would say the creative team aimed for something similar. However, The Tourist didn't come close to Fargo's model due to an underdeveloped screenplay, which, while it introduced some interesting ideas, failed to…

This Czech interpretation of true crime succeeded. The subject was easy to choose because the Stodola couple became legends of criminology years ago. Director Petr Hátle relied on a pair of actors who are fairly new. Jan Hájek has directed plenty of average things, and Lucie Žáčková is also a much more prominent…

The most mediocre and classic mainstream horror genre film that can possibly be made for the least discerning audience (teenage girls). On the one hand, I appreciate that the whole movie isn't just haunted by one boogeyman, but every single protagonist has their own demon and they surprisingly have great make-up…

I was expecting more from Antoine Fuqua, who lured Hong Kong star Chow Yun-fat into his actioner. It has a decent pace, but the film feels very B-ish and doesn't offer much besides decent shootouts. A 90's B-movie standard that will appeal to few today. 60%

Adam McKay is a pretty decent comedy director, and he's nicely assisted by Will Ferrel, who's always there for him. I'm not a fan of NASCAR racing, so this plot didn't interest me much, but I was pleased to see Sacha Baron Cohen as a gay Frenchman. There are some decent lines, but the running time is unnecessarily…

Adam McKay and Will Ferrel are back together and they're doing great. A great story about two adult slackers who are forced to live under the same roof after their parents get married. From this point on, a game of hijinks, double-crosses and various contrivances that can be a decent trip on the diaphragm begins. At…

The biggest asset is the casting of solid comedians, but it seems to me that the film was only running at half throttle. I laughed a couple of times and wasn't bored, but given the premise and the actors a lot more could have been done – the attack on the kid and the dog were pretty over the top, though. 60%

This film tries to play at being something more than it is, and that hurts it. I found the story both uninteresting and overcomplicated, but there were some positives. The villain is great, his constant smiling is powerfully provoking and the massacre in the hospital is a strong moment in the film. For a debut, the…
