Ray Ferrier is a divorced dockworker and less-than-perfect father. Soon after his ex-wife and her new husband drop off his teenage son and young daughter for a rare weekend visit, a strange and powerful lightning storm touches down.
That’s how I want a good mainstream sci-fi to be. Luxurious looking, entertaining and not going into drama too much. Acting, story and effects are good too.
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.…
When mankind beams a radio signal into space, a reply comes from ‘Planet G’, in the form of several alien crafts that splash down in the waters off Hawaii. Lieutenant Alex Hopper is a weapons officer assigned to the USS John Paul Jones, part of an international naval coalition which becomes the world’s last hope for survival as they engage the hostile alien force of unimaginable strength. While taking on the invaders, Hopper must also […]
Average mainstream scenario with good effects. I was watching it to chill and it ended up better than some kind of "Jack Reacher", "Battle Los Angeles" or "Total Recall".
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…
A group of teens break into a blind man’s home thinking they’ll get away with the perfect crime. They’re wrong.
An overrated horror movie. Acting and filming are better than average, but the movie doesn’t show anything new and still belongs to the B category.
Nearly a year after a botched job, a hitman takes a new assignment with the promise of a big payoff for three killings. What starts off as an easy task soon unravels, sending the killer into the heart of darkness.
A weak movie from Ben Wheatley. It’s about style and effect, but fails in the later. And the story is unfinished.
An FBI agent teams with the town’s veteran game tracker to investigate a murder that occurred on a Native American reservation.
I like slow movies if they have a reason to be so. Seems like this one is slow just to look serious, also having too much drama of same kind…
In the futuristic action thriller Looper, time travel will be invented but it will be illegal and only available on the black market. When the mob wants to get rid of someone, they will send their target 30 years into the past where a looper, a hired gun, like Joe is waiting to mop up. Joe is getting rich and life is good until the day the mob decides to close the loop, sending back […]
This movie is about nothing. The whole time I felt that they threw a supposed to be intelligent time travelling idea over the standard shoot-em-up. The scenario is twisted and…
Welcome to Rekall, the company that can turn your dreams into real memories. For a factory worker named Douglas Quaid, even though he’s got a beautiful wife who he loves, the mind-trip sounds like the perfect vacation from his frustrating life – real memories of life as a super-spy might be just what he needs. But when the procedure goes horribly wrong, Quaid becomes a hunted man. Finding himself on the run from the police […]
Shows the emptiness of modern action/sci-fi big budget movies. The guy is just immortal and gets through everything. I quickly understood this and immediately lost the interest. OK, it’s action…
After a former elite agent rescues a 12-year-old Chinese girl who’s been abducted, they find themselves in the middle of a standoff between Triads, the Russian Mafia and high-level corrupt New York City politicians and police.
A typical movie with Statham. Should be OK with crisps and beer, but nowhere as exciting as “Snatch”, “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” or even “The Transporter”. As time…
