After two phenomenally balanced, carefully constructed and emotionally dense seasons, the third one seems a bit muddled, inconsistent and less suspenseful than we are used to. The frequent twists and turns around Brody's character actually caused him to become quite fundamentally exhausted as a main figure, and the…

A whole lot of nothing. It’s a shame that the screenplay for Wolves wasn’t written by Shane Black or Quentin Tarantino, or anyone who can write a funny line and enrich the dialogue with something meaningful. It's okay to avoid suspense and action when you have something to say, and yes, it can be something as banal as…

80's horror movies are the best, but unfortunately this is not one of them. Most of the time I felt like I was watching a comedy – the opening chase of Malcolm by the wardens of the asylum was like something out of a slapstick movie. Just when Linda thinks she can make cheap money babysitting a kid, but she finds out…

An average entry into the zombie horror genre, which has recently moved into cheap B-movies. This one was obviously a bit more expensive, but it doesn't bring anything new to the table in terms of story. It’s a character drama set at the beginning of the apocalypse, but it is slow to get going and it's only in the…

A now time-tested classic that relies on great practical effects that easily leave today's CGI crap biting the dust, with giant worms who seem to have come out of the best of Stan Winston's productions. In terms of plot, it's an admittedly monster B-movie, but with A-list production and top-notch practical effects.…

Putting aside the early 2000s and its heap of cringey German comedies, I’d say Germany has finally cracked the code on making decent comedies. Ever since Fack ju Göhte, they’ve really leaned into likable, fresh characters and easygoing humor that may not be laugh-out-loud but still makes for a chill, relaxing watch. I…

An over-the-top case of holiday madness: on one side, you've got the guy who moves in and decides his house will be the brightest, most decorated spot the world’s ever seen. On the other, his neighbors, who aren’t thrilled by the spectacle. Cue the extreme, legal drama that only American laws can inspire. Because this…

Irgendwo zwischen einem dramaturgisch leicht aufgelösten Tagebuch einer turbulenten Periode, einer soliden Beobachtung und einem fragmentarischen Versuch, Čaputová besser zu verstehen. Es gibt einige emotionale Momente, das demütige Charisma der Präsidentin wird treu dargestellt, der zufriedenstellende Schnittrhythmus…

A brisk crime horror film about a serial killer who picks up prostitutes, and not just any prostitutes, they all have a history – they're from Las Vegas. The murders are gritty, but we don’t get to enjoy them in detail. There’s a jackhammer, a lawnmower, a chainsaw. Perhaps the most bizarre is the sucking out of…

In the opening, we witness the assault on fifteen-year-old Annette and then the brutal torture of a pervert. Of course, we don’t get to see the welding work, but I wouldn't have expected that. Well, then comes the drama, as Jeff Farrell, an American painter who has just let his rich mistress go, gets caught between…
