An Australian high school drama. Over a few years, they produced 209 episodes, which is incredible by today's standards. The show was a follow-up to the film The Heartbreak Kid, which didn't manage to connect in the Czech Republic. As different classes and groups of kids rotated through, the series depicted a wide…

Edward Scissorhands is the essential meeting of Tim Burton with Danny Elfman, Johnny Depp, Winona Ryder, and Vincent Price. The basic story comes from classic Burtonian settings, combining caricatured American suburbs and the gothic dark world from the monster studios of Universal and Hammer. It is kind, loving,…

One of those iconic 90s movies by Tim Burton, which I completely missed back in the golden era of VHS tapes and video rental stores. Looking back, it's obviously fun, but it's still just an adaptation of trading cards from the Topps company that never quite stepped out of its shadow. Some ideas and casting choices are…

#15 DCEU. The final film of DC Extended Universe is the Aquaman sequel. The film runs smoothly, following the classic concept of a buddy movie, in which the main enemies from the first film become partners under the influence of circumstances, and together they fight against a new enemy. This is something absolutely…

A very weak, generic genre film. A group of young adults are trapped in a spider's web along with the entire residential building due to one single mistake. In the place I watched it, they really tried hard and placed artificial spider webs and spiders, but that's pretty much all that can be remembered positively…

The Three Musketeers is a visually beautiful and rich spectacle in which lovers of eye-candy will find their own. In terms of story and acting, however, it is pure average. I don't exactly do a double take on the pompous and arrogant Musketeer talk, of which there was a serious abundance. Of the actors, I was most…

At first and second glance, a TV movie with a catch-all title that at times reminded me of the (awful) Mountain Medic with some of its shots, but fortunately only reminded me. Otherwise, it's an average film, brisk and witty within reason, set in a Bavarian village that's largely full of narrow-minded rednecks with…

After Plan 9 from Outer Space, Glen or Glenda is for me the second film from director Edward Wood, and I found it a bit more interesting. As far as the premise goes, it's pretty daring, especially as it deals with transvestitism, but the script was wretchedness, horror and dread. Bela Lugosi, who was supposed to be…

I have to admit that I kept The Intouchables locked away in my "drawer" for a really long time, but I would like to slap myself right now for depriving myself of such a unique film, the kind that isn't made every year. On the one hand, there is tragedy, especially given Phillippe's health and Driss' social background.…

From Beginning to End is very similar in theme to the 2005 short Starcrossed, which also depicts an incestuous relationship between two brothers. The latter, however, was more emphatic and emotionally more intense, perhaps due to its shorter running time. From Beginning to End attempts to chart the evolution of the…
