This French historical drama is worth a watch. The men settle their honour by duelling each other with swords or pistols, and the acting is dominated by fencing master Roschdy Zem, who plays a very likeable character. It's got attractive visuals, strong themes like honour, pride and feminism, interesting dueling rules…

The story from an unreliable narrator, a double agent, full of deceit and uncertainty. Hoa Xuande is the discovery of the year, an utterly convincing performance from a chameleon you root for despite his moral failings. He's overshadowed only by the multi-role Robert Downey Jr. and he's a little different every time,…

The first episode with the series' Julia Pennyworth. Casting Christina Wolfe was a classic whitewashing drama because in the comics she's the dark-skinned daughter of Batman's butler Alfred and Mademoiselle Marie (but only since 2014). Originally, everyone was white, and Julia started as Julia Remarque, whose…

A film that offers some impressive moments, but as a whole it mostly skims the surface. It deals with a few key themes, but it is mostly too thesis-like and one-dimensional. A raging America where we get no introduction and a miserable, rushed conclusion. Jesse Plemons steals for himself what is undoubtedly the film's…

It’s too colourful, too CGI-laden, and Jennifer Lopez runs around with her big ass at the beginning and admits in one of the dialogues that she has wrinkles and covers her grey hair because nobody gets younger, and for that she gets my nod because her Botox colleagues in the industry probably see it differently. You…

The triple combo of Robert Zemeckis, Brad Pitt and Nazis simply can't go wrong. Allied portrays the view of World War II from a different angle, which is always interesting. While the film is primarily a romantic drama, the chemistry between Pitt and the lovely Marion Cotillard works well here, the atmosphere is…

I was hoping for a more interesting experience. China is not even close to Korea, but I must admit that visually the film is on a decent level and the action dominates over the dialogues, which is also a plus. The action, however, is not very gripping, there’s blood spurting sometimes, but there are no gore shots, I…

Although I am not a fan of the drama genre, this Hungarian female trio intimate play full of intrigue, eroticism, cynicism, superiority and elegance suited me well. The acting by all three female protagonists is impressive, the dialogue is clever, the sets are impressive and the atmosphere is mysterious. The ending is…

A decent and unusual kidnap thriller where at times it is not obvious who is the victim and who is the perpetrator. Dominic Monaghan plays the lovelorn psychopath convincingly and Ksenia Solo is a proper mm attractive bitch. There is rather little gore, but when it comes down to it, it's definitely worth it. The final…

An interesting film that cleverly masks its low budget with black and white cinematography, but it's a pity that the director didn't have the balls to go off the rails like the director of Human Centipede II. Every time something that might have been pleasing to the eye was about to happen, the director just plain and…
