The 6th season was more interesting than the 5th thanks to the discovery of the Rus, but that's about it. The series is just treading water now. You have to wait nine episodes for one battle, all the interesting characters are gone and only the annoying ones remain. The biggest paradox to me is that the least interesting character from the entire series is the only one who has survived. I wasn't bored, but I was watching more out of principle. Visually, it doesn't compare at all to the first season. 6/10.

This is awesome! A guy wakes up one day with everyone being afraid of him because he the whole world has had a nasty dream about. His life is falling apart before his eyes and he experiences an unimaginable nightmare. The finale? It is unexpectedly brutal and literally delicious. 9/10.

An audiovisual Sci-Fi CGI banger in the style of Predator, about fighting lizards on a beautiful planet. Four loaded minutes! 8/10.

Very nicely shot by Latvian standards, and the First World War setting is definitely welcome. However, the film suffers from it and turns out to be a bit boring. The characters didn't interest me much, it is necessary to clarify that the film is primarily a war drama, with very little action, and even there is some action, it is mostly uninteresting. It lacks brutality, intensity, and tension. The soldiers stand in place, shoot, reload, the end. I understand that the weapons in the First World War were different from those in the Second, but it could definitely have done more interestingly. Additionally, the Latvian army was very small, so it appears modest in every aspect. For me, it is not gritty and rough enough, it is too polished, and the civilian scenes are tedious. The protagonist goes through three partners, and I don't need to see that in a war movie. Those who prefer romance, emotions, and a drawn-out story over war carnage will be satisfied.

A perfectly modern war film about defending a US base in the Hindukush mountains against the uncompromising Taliban. Honestly, it is much better than I expected, and if it wasn't for Black Hawk Down and 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, I would have given it a full score. Without a doubt, The Outpost is better than the recent Mosul from Netflix. Orlando Bloom and the likable Scott Eastwood are the stars, and in the first hour there is a very good introduction to the 60 soldiers who reside in the base. The character development is good, the military lines are accurate, and the calm before the storm is atmospherically appropriate, and probably no one expected a 40-minute war hell to break loose after an hour, which is intense, thrilling, and visually captivating. It's a bit disappointing that the gore was toned down, but it is still a well-directed, brilliantly acted, and suspenseful war film that I really enjoyed.

Sad and original. The process of making quite creepy characters. Definitely solid. 8/10.

An overall original idea, but that’s pretty much it. There’s no action, average visuals, nothing really interesting happens. 6/10.

A very original, impressive, and beautifully mysterious six-minute short from Canada, based on one photograph from the late 1930s. The beauty lies in the details, and what they are able decipher from one photo is literally fascinating. 8/10.

Trash B-movie mixed with C-movie, whose quality teeters between decent and bad, but in the end, it's a fairly tolerable cocktail that I didn't believe would be so much fun. The opening scene, where zombie Nazis hijack a plane, is such mayhem that I couldn't believe my own eyes. The film also tries to have an interesting story with the Nazis, who, by the way, have excellent make-up and costumes. Occasionally, there is bad CGI, but overall, it's surprisingly decent visually, with high-level gore and more beautiful female assets than ypi would see in a lifetime. I wouldn't recommend it to women, especially intellectuals, but for those who like to switch off during a movie, want to laugh, love Nazis, good music, enjoy gore with a lot of nudity and sex, and appreciate the few decent jokes. It didn't disappoint 😃 I also liked the scene in Vietnam or the final showdown. I was surprised by how many interesting ideas they managed to include in a relatively bad movie. I had a good time. It's splatter entertainment through and through, but at your own risk. If I had to describe the film in a few words, it would be something like this: gore, boobs, gore, Nazis, flying sharks, boobs, gore, gore, gore, and boobs once again. Story**, Action*****, Humor*** Violence*****, Entertainment*****, Music****, Visuals***, Atmosphere***, Tension***. 7/10.

An exotic and honest tribute to 1980s and giallo from Uruguay, and quite possibly an unofficial remake of the excellent Anguish: Blind Terror. We haven’t had such a thoroughbred slasher in almost two years, so The Last Matinee deserves great attention from fans of the subgenre. The story takes place in a cinema, where a classic movie, Frankenstein, is being screened when a psychopath in a black cloak starts wreaking havoc with a knife, enjoying pulling out people's eyes. After a lukewarm first half an hour, the film gains quite a decent pace. The soundtrack is excellent, there are even Argento's red filters, and the gore is solid, although I have some minor complaints about the murder weapon (I would replace that pocket knife the killer uses with either a kitchen knife, a hook, or an axe, but that's just a detail). It's a bit disappointing that there is no nudity or humor, which are typical for the genre, but otherwise everything works, from the visuals, the tension, the music, and the violence. Enjoyable stuff for fans. Story***, Action***, Humor*, Violence****, Entertainment****, Music****, Visuals****, Atmosphere****, Tension***. 7.5/10.
