A more melancholic and weepy version of Me Before You in the lower middle class. Javier Bardem is excellent, there are some great ideas and some interesting dialogue, but it's primarily the strength of the premise and its existential overtones than how it's executed. The love triangle was like something cut out of a…

A more thoughtful, tense and overall more minimalist version of Civil War with a gradually escalating atmosphere in the style of Take Shelter. Technically outstanding. Great cinematography and editing. Superb acting, a shame some elements were left unexplained and perhaps the conclusion was too rushed given the…

A tribute to a difficult profession, which it's a shame doesn't have its own category at the Oscars. Fall Guy is certainly not popcorn for everyone, which is why it will have a difficult time with high box office and general acceptance. For the average viewer, it's far too loaded with references, innuendo and props…

Undisguisedly Hitchcockian. The script is very stupid, but what Brian De Palma spoils as a screenwriter, he makes up for mightily as a director. Plus, he's not afraid to use the skills of Ralf D. Bode and Pino Donaggio. More than one scene could have gone straight into the textbooks as an example of "how to slowly…

This hammy romp about a deaf and dumb killer who has to overthrow a totalitarian regime spares no expense with absurd scenes, black humour and incredible action that combines the best of The Raid with childish imagination and naivety. The self-parody sequences where the protagonist tells the story in a video game…

For a Czech production, this is a very precise piece of filmmaking, nothing to be ashamed of internationally. The creators did an excellent job both in technical execution and in telling a story with a very original and well-developed idea. From the script, through the visuals, to the acting performances, everything…

I don't know! The film didn't particularly impress me and unfortunately, it didn't stand out in any significant way. The plot unfolded at a slow and unnecessarily drawn-out pace, which significantly detracted from its dynamics and overall appeal. Despite the creators' apparent effort to faithfully reflect the…

This is a real success for German Netflix. The film stands out with its conceptual originality and surprisingly good quality of execution. The script brings an innovative idea that, in the context of contemporary commercial society where many strive for quick and easy wealth, feels quite realistic and relevant. Given…

The main flaw of the third season is that I just couldn't buy into the idea that a family team, including one serious alcoholic, could outsmart the secret service. If they can, then the Brits have bigger problems than I thought! Still, it was a fun episode that stayed on its well-set course, so I enjoyed it. Now, I'm…

Go figure! The third episode managed to avoid the issues that bugged me in the previous ones and had almost everything I'd been missing. I finally had a great time (despite a few minor flaws) because the story actually moved forward. The plot was interesting, the Korean creators added some nice tension and another…
