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 insanely brutal zombie flick from Japan takes home the award for best zombie film of the year! I am Hero is more or less a competition to the Korean Train to Busan and although I didn't like the trailer much, it may have won with me. At the beginning I couldn't find much to like about it, my attention span only…

I can do these movies. Miles Teller is slowly but surely building his career and Jonah Hill is already a star on the comedy scene and here he more or less pulls the whole film off. I find movies based on real events that happened recently far more appealing than movies based on reality from the distant past. The…

Clint Eastwood and Tom Hanks, in their old age, give precise performances in every way. I wouldn't have hoped for a biopic drama to blow me away more than anything else in recent memory. I watched until two in the morning to see how it would all play out. Suspenseful, intelligent, engaging and perfectly acted. It's…

A classic B-movie like something out of the 90s. It reminded me especially of Hard to Kill with Steven Seagal. The visuals are TV-like, the acting is mediocre and the plot is classic for similar films. The fights were bad. 50%

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…
