Immediately following the discovery, they decide to send a team down to the depths of the ocean to study the space craft. They are the best of best, smart and logical, and the perfect choice to learn more about the spacecraft.

Very interesting movie. Not only in its idea, but how it goes from good to bad, and back to good. The beginning is a very entertaining sci-fi mystery thriller, the…

1997
Drama, Science Fiction, Mystery

Contact is a science fiction film about an encounter with alien intelligence. Based on the novel by Carl Sagan the film starred Jodie Foster as the one chosen scientist who must make some difficult decisions between her beliefs, the truth, and reality.

A clever and well executed sci-fi story. There is a great balance between science and human angle, which reminds me of Arrival in a way.

1997
Drama, Thriller, Mystery

A tormented jazz musician finds himself lost in an enigmatic story involving murder, surveillance, gangsters, doppelgangers, and an impossible transformation inside a prison cell.

Woah, a hardcore psychedelic odyssey. Sexy, stylish, well-acted, you name it. The only problem is that it’s too darn confusing.

When Ellen, the matriarch of the Graham family, passes away, her daughter’s family begins to unravel cryptic and increasingly terrifying secrets about their ancestry.

Amazing debut for Ari Aster. With a help of great actors, creative cinematography and little details, there's something sinister about everything in this story. This is a painfully slow movie…

A bride’s wedding night takes a sinister turn when her eccentric new in-laws force her to take part in a terrifying game.

A fun wicked ride into the even more wicked ending. The acting and cinematography are very good for this kind of movie, just the actions of the characters are unbelievable…

2010
Thriller, Mystery

A writer stumbles upon a long-hidden secret when he agrees to help former British Prime Minister Adam Lang complete his memoirs on a remote island after the politician’s assistant drowns in a mysterious accident.

Polanski’s more concentrated than ever. Maybe too much. The movie has everything, but it’s cold, and that’s a bit of a problem to me. I just didn’t care about the…

Christine Collins is overjoyed when her kidnapped son is brought back home. But when Christine suspects that the boy returned to her isn’t her child, the police captain has her committed to an asylum.

Good actors, careful execution, all the things you could expect from Eastwood are here, except the story which is a bit lacking to my taste. I better like other Eastwood’s…

With no clue how he came to be imprisoned, drugged and tortured for 15 years, a desperate businessman seeks revenge on his captors.

Solid, but overrated movie. Not the best from Chan Wook Park. Technically, his unique style is there, but the movie is just needlessly hysteric, something many Asian films suffer from.…

Kate and Matt discover that a part of their house can grant wishes. In the wake of several miscarriages, what they want most is a child.

A very good idea with a lacking execution. The movie is just a bit too dull. I think we would see a much better movie given a bigger budget, but…

Delphine is the author of an autobiographical novel that has become a bestseller. Exhausted by the promotional tour, just when she feels out of place, paralyzed by the idea of having to start writing again, she meets Elle, a young, attractive, intelligent, intuitive woman who seems to understand her better than anyone.

I am a fan of Polanski but this is one of his weakest films. It has a darkish mysterious theme from his other movies but the story is lacking and…
