Alan Pakula's All the President's Men is one of my favourite political investigative dramas, and this film, two years younger, takes a slightly different approach. The investigative journalism is still there, but the investigation is more straightforward, more of a life-and-death levitation, the solo of one embattled…

A variation on Reacher, Rambo and all those rogues who have to get justice with their brains and fists and lots of bullets, but this time a little more realistic, bureaucratic and actually less successful. Jeremy Saulnier carefully builds the conflict around the seemingly banal and all the more real friction between…

The Daltons have met the handsome Paddy and his wife on holiday and now visit them one day at their country estate. But it soon becomes clear that something is not right. And leaving won't be easy at all. Speak No Evil is a gripping and suspenseful psychological thriller that isn't afraid to open up interesting themes…

Slightly less nimble and less daring than the modern remake. A 90s adaptation with all the trimmings. It's interesting to compare the depiction of 19th century social conventions in the two adaptations and look for differences in delivery and specific nuances. Excellent performances by all involved, perhaps only the…

Well-written, entertaining and wonderfully readable by the modern scheming of the powerful prima donnas who want to be in charge. The acting is great, especially Jeff Goldblum shines as the absolute boss who finds out what others think of him and decides to put them back in line. The old Greek myths are raped with…

Wow!!! The film by James Wan is out and it’s something  nobody expected from him and absolutely goes beyond everything we thought. It’s about a woman who sees murders as they happen, only that the killer is not a man, but something supernatural - I don't think I'll go into any more analysis, because the less you know,…

After the opening fight, which pissed me off in that typical Asian style, I was holding my head and thinking that if it goes on like this, it will be a disaster. Thankfully nothing like that happened and for how scared I was of this solo fight, it turned out pretty well. The action is top-notch, there's a nice blend…
