Slightly less nimble and less daring than the modern remake. A 90s adaptation with all the trimmings. It's interesting to compare the depiction of 19th century social conventions in the two adaptations and look for differences in delivery and specific nuances. Excellent performances by all involved, perhaps only the…

Well-written, entertaining and wonderfully readable by the modern scheming of the powerful prima donnas who want to be in charge. The acting is great, especially Jeff Goldblum shines as the absolute boss who finds out what others think of him and decides to put them back in line. The old Greek myths are raped with…

At times it reminded me of the last two seasons of Lost with its cluelessness, including the hatches that also lead somewhere. There are mysteries, unpredictable situations, but it doesn't lead to anything meaningful. For about half an hour or so, I was amused to see how dumb the whole thing was, like watching some…

A stare down of two alpha blind men and one maniacal Nakadaie. Too bad the "single-shot" action has been replaced by a "Zatoichi vs. lots of us" style. It's so weak in action, cluttered, without ideas, without choreography. It's only present during the naked bathhouse action. It often teeters on the edge of (un)wanted…

It could almost be called "Two Musketeers and Eva", because everything revolves around D'Artagnan and his efforts to save his beloved and then Athos (a magnificent Vincent Cassel) and his "skeleton in the closet"; the other two are neither interesting nor essential to the plot at all, apart from their awkward jokes at…

A more successful and, in many ways, more sophisticated installment from the DC stable than Justice League: War. I appreciate fresh ideas, so I was pleased to experience a taste from another parallel Earth, where there is an exact opposite of the heroes we know from the league. The story is truly high-quality, not…

It seems to me that the quality of DC animated films fluctuates significantly. Compared to Crisis on Two Earths, this one is a weaker installment. I expected a more solid plot, but it seems to have remained on paper, as the story was very predictable. There was an overabundance of action, and you can't really complain…

I’ve never seen a film centered around Christmas that predominantly functions as a horror, but here we have the first one that fits into that category. It starts off quite comedic, and you might wonder what you've gotten yourself into, but it gradually intensifies until it becomes a full-fledged horror. The cast is…

Netflix has been really going full throttle lately, churning out one film after another. You might think that with such a high quantity, the quality might not be exceptional, but the opposite is true. Jeremy Rush managed to make a film with one quality actor, a top-notch machine (of course, a powerful BMW), and a…

I always enjoy hearing stories about lesser-known figures, as they often reveal intriguing details. Barry Seal's life is so extravagant that it grips you and doesn’t let go. I had been looking forward to this film for a long time, especially considering the successful collaboration between the director and Tom Cruise…
