This is a remake of a less known movie Ha-Hov, about three Mossad (CIA of Israel) agents and their hardships with a escaped Nazi doctor. I don’t know who made the poster for this movie, but whoever was that he made a fatal flaw portraying it as an espionage thriller with lots of action and [...]

It is pretty hard to transform a good book into a movie, but if it works it is usually pretty amazing. The autobiography of an infamous British drug dealer Howard Marks was a bestseller, and it is a pretty logical idea to turn it into a movie. But, although the beginning of this movie was [...]

Continuing with the mildly entertaining movies, next  is Father of Invention. Although the poster and Kevin Spacey were promising, the movie turned out to be average but still watchable, arguably only because of the lead actor. Being a great fan of infomercials, I expected much more from this movie, maybe a more complex plot and [...]

The Perfect Host is probably the best movie I have seen all year, and it’s going to be hard for any other to top this perfection in a these few months. Do not watch the trailer and do not try to find out more about this movie, it will spoil the fun! Just trust me [...]

Russell Crowe established himself as a pretty sure thing when it comes to thrillers, you know that he will be good, whatever role they give him. It is funny to see someone who started as a leader of a Nazi gang (Romper Stomper) come all this way, but even then you could notice that look [...]

I know that you are used to seeing different types of movies here, but Another Year was just too good to pass up. It is beautifully directed, shot, acted and written  a heartwarming story of life and everything else. It is very honest, without any prejudice it shows us the life of an older married [...]

I just love movies where things go horribly wrong, or someone fucks up (Very Bad Things vibe), and Brotherhood is one of those movies. Without much hype or drama this movie was released and I am sure that it will pick up its share of glory and movie history as time goes on. This is [...]

Alcoholism is always a good subject for a movie, and Everything Must Go, exploits this as its main theme. Luckily the mantra about how it’s a disease and all the other mainstream crap is quite subtle and you can hardly sense it, mostly by an almost exploitationist approach of the director and Will’s relaxed “acting”. [...]

Banking on the obscure subject and sort of an X-Files vibe, Shelter tries to create that weird psychological-thriller atmosphere with a large religious influence. And when I say religious I mean it in a ritualistic, almost voodoo pagan sense, with a dogmatic christian thing of being a believer or not as a counterpart. The choice [...]

Ross from Friends directing a movie about child abuse, are you fucking kidding me? Oh, how I was wrong about him, because this turned out to be one of the best movies that I have seen in a last few months. Everything was perfect, from acting to story, which was so disturbing and intense that [...]

Ten years after his last movie (Ghosts of Mars) Mr. John Carpenter returns with just a puff instead of a big bang. But, I guess this is my fault from expecting more from one of my favourite directors.  I have a feeling that Carpenter will have trouble finding his place in modern cinema. Maybe this [...]

Loosely based on the original Mother’s Day (this was a Troma flick which makes the quality of the remake almost comprehensible) from 1980 this updated version took the premise to a much higher level and created a very intense and suspenseful movie. Directed by Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw II, III, IV) and set in a [...]

I have to admit that this movie was a frightening experience for me. I don`t know why it was so scary, but during the entire movie I was on the edge of my seat (I mean bed). Many say that it is a mixture of more popular movies like Poltergeist, Paranormal Activity, The Exorcist and [...]

Stake Land, huh, this mixture of The Road, Zombieland and other post-apocalyptic movies is pretty watchable. And don`t be fooled by the adrenaline filled bloodbath at the beginning of the movie, it is pretty slow, but for fans of post-apocalyptic settings (they thrown in vampires and zombies to cover those fans also) it is a [...]

Black Death is the fourth movie directed by Christopher Smith (Triangle, Severance, Creep and that`s it) and I have to admit that I loved every one. This time, with a bit more money he was able to make a movie about humanities first brush with bubonic plague. Although this is the main story, there are [...]

It is really hard to define this movie, it uses typical ingredients for a teenage horror movie, but still it is much more than just that, mixing mystery, science fiction and even time travel. All this lumped in together produced a decent flick that is not some masterpiece but something that is worth watching. Granted, [...]

Luc Besson decided to turn a comic Les Aventures extraordinaires d’Adèle Blanc-Sec into this movie, whether this was a good move for him I do not know, but I was entertained by a movie. Adele is more sexier than in the comic (there is a pretty hot bathtub scene), and she is a female, French [...]

The latest Coen brothers movie is finally here (the next one is Gambit in 2012), and I have to say that you need to be a bit warned before checking it out. True Grit is a movie based on a book by Charles Portis, much like its predecessor True Grit from 1969 starring the legendary [...]

Created from a fake trailer that you have seen in Grindhouse package, this movie was a bit of a disappointment. Actually, it was made only because the trailer was so popular on youtube and Danny was pestering Rodriguez constantly to make it. So I was expecting a bit more content, but what we got was [...]

As soon as I saw that Guillermo del Toro was attached somehow to this project I knew that it is going to be good. He produced this movie and Guillem Morales (The Uncertain Guest) wrote and directed it with a very noticeable European vibe. So do not expect another Pan’s Labyrinth but something with a [...]
