I'm going to say it, and I'm surprised myself. Even though I'm an old boomer who grew up on the first Planet of the Apes from the late 60s, and even though I'm not a fan of the CGI serendipity of today, the direction that Rupert Wyatt took 13 years ago, Matt Reeves continued, and now Wes Ball has followed up on, is…

A mediocre poliziotteschi from the year when the popularity of this once super popular subgenre in Italian cinemas of the 70's started to slowly fade away and so did the yappy career of the charismatic Luc Merenda, who looked good on camera, but in all his films acted exactly the same, with a limited acting register.…

Not as good as the first two films, but considering how barren comedy is these days, it's more than decent entertainment that won't offend fans. Moving Ted to a school is a fine idea, once again he's getting stoned, is foul-mouthed to everyone and dispenses wisecracks, and it's again properly incorrect in terms of…

A family friendly adventure that surprisingly isn't as annoying as I suspected before watching it. Kumail Nanjiani gives a comedic undertone to the film and I found the whole freezing apocalypse thing fine, in fact even the orb villain looked very nice, kind of a mummy mix. Kids will like it a lot and parents at least…

I caught up with this rather praised crime drama-thriller that surprised me with its shocking and unpredictable conclusion. It's an intimate film with a couple of characters, where a daughter commits a nasty crime and the parents try to cover it up from the police. The hopeless and heavy atmosphere is woven throughout…

Ninja Kamui immediately piqued my interest with Song-hu Park at the helm, the same director behind the gripping first season of JJK. Known for his knack for choreographing exhilarating fight scenes, Park and his team deliver solid work here, seamlessly blending traditional animation with CGI. The fight sequences pack…

I approached this movie with a hint of skepticism but those worries quickly dissipated. The storyline didn't exactly break new ground, but it wasn't half bad. If you're familiar with your fair share of mafia movies, whether they're from the West or the East, you pretty much know what to expect here. I braced myself…

An excellent movie, the only flaw of which is that it is not a typical Tim Burton film full of nihilism and attractions. And none of his notorious actors are cast here - Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, or Eva Green. In the eyes of some, Burton filmed a heretical civilian film against his trademark (although he at…

A very satisfying continuation. The second series focuses on the relationship between Anne Lister and Ann Walker and, of course, Mariana Lawton reaches her peak, as promised by the posters. Yes, certainly, the realities of the 1830s may not be to everyone's taste, but they are presented very understandably here. After…

Rewatching this on the day when the president of the Czech Republic signed the partnership agreement has a deep importance for me. While back then in 1996, the lesbian wedding was still partially the culmination of running jokes, in the following decades, we could see how the real world around us was changing. And…
