I just love closed environment movies! Cramped in a small room, a couple of characters try to escape/survive and show the best and the worst in them. Although they have to be well written, most of these movies is a great study of characters and the claustrophobic vibe just adds to the tension. ATM is [...]
Devil is the latest M. Night Shyamalan’s movie, although it is directed by John Erick Dowdle it still has that Nighty vibe. On the first glance this movies seemed perfect for me, a group of people crammed in an closed space (elevator) with Satan among them. Sadly, Devil turned out to be one of the [...]
He may be a pedophile, but he makes damn good movies. Of course this time Roman Polanski is directing Yasmina Reza’s play “Le Dieu du carnage”, and during this relatively short flick you can sense that theatric vibe. Although people bitched about the actors I found them compelling and perfect for their roles. They were [...]
Bruce Willis doing what he does best is the most accurate description of this movie. Based on a novel by Robert Crais, it begins with a noir intro, that slowly introduces the unique style of directing. As the movie progresses we can witness one hell of a thrill ride. Incorporating elements of thriller and action [...]
I just love British cinema, their distinct sense of humor, and tragedy and when you add to that excellent actors, I believe that we have a winner. With the next generation of British actors taking over from old school, I think that there are more and more talented actors and directors out there. This movie [...]
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 [...]
Starring Nicolas Cage, Nicole Kidman and directed by Joel Schumacher (The Number 23, Phone Booth, 8MM) I had high hopes for this movie, but it turned out to be average hostage situation flick with characters that I would steal from for being douchebags. A rich guy, obsessed with his work, aging wife and a troubled [...]
Directed by Nick Cassavetes (Alpha Dog, She’s So Lovely, My Sister’s Keeper) John Q is a rather controversial movie about health-care in America. It seems that this movie has been pushed aside due to its subject, and we are here to correct that error. First of all this script is quite real and I believe [...]
Hey lets mix up bank robbery, romance, action, comedy and mystery in one movie! Sounds quite interesting, doesn’t it? But, in reality, this has to be done with great precision and perfect script with solid acting on top of all that, and in Flypaper we see how this mixture almost made it. First of all, [...]
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 [...]
Coming to us from the guy who wrote The Hitcher and Near Dark, 100 Feet is a movie with a slightly misleading title. I expected (as you can notice I expect a lot in my reviews, and almost always I’m wrong) everything else from a serial killer who chops off his victims feet to foot [...]
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 [...]
If you’re up for something a bit more weirder and mysterious then run-of-the-mill thrillers, check out this movie. This is also an opportunity to see Jeff Daniels in a much more demanding role than in Dumb & Dumber, although after that movie he rarely appears in comedies (check out Imaginary Heroes and The Squid and [...]
