Good for me. Very satirical, bold, suspenseful and solidly bloody towards the end. The nurse was very seductive and just plain sexy. Nurse 3D is a terribly silly and cliched horror B-movie, but a very modern and entertaining one for that. 65%.

This didn't go so well. The Human Race suffers from a very low budget and a look that is like something out of the 90s. Fortunately, you get too bored, there is always something going on, but it's pretty unsatisfying and I'm not happy with the gore, which is poorly handled and I'd rather not have seen it. The final twist does have something to it, but I still have a lot of unanswered questions. 40%.

I really didn't expect such a three-hour adrenaline-pumping, biographical ride! Even though I don't like Scorsese, he makes films I avoid like the devil, so I bow down to him for this one. Directed with great talent, energy and an incredible script that has depth and features a lot of funny lines. Drug abuse, wealth, greed, and a handful of colorful characters all mixed into a Scorsese cocktail that will make you want to see this film again and again! 100%

A very good thriller! The film has lots of thrills and quick turns. A classic child kidnapping plot with a very clever and interesting set-up where Mel Gibson gives the kidnapper a solid "fuck you". It doesn’t top Payback, but it’s a thriller worth watching for sure.

Great Thriller!! I'm very puzzled by the poor rating on IMDB (only 6.4), because this film is excellent in all respects. Nicolas Cage was still in form, an excellent script concerning a very dark plot, a look into the underworld of porn (snuff!) and great twists. Perfect in every way, can't fault it. 95%

A three-hour gem full of star actors! Few people can make a film that is so kinetic, energetic, desperate, riveting, blunt and brilliant with such a simple story. Al Pacino, Robert De Niro and Val Kilmer give perhaps the best acting performances of their careers. However, it is disappointing to see a very overlong running time and insufficient space for the female cast – Ashley Judd and little Natalie Portman – but I am satisfied. A solid olds-chool flick. 80%.

At first I was scared of this film, but unnecessarily so. Without a doubt, Hollywood fell flat with me because this film showed a whole new, novel visual and technical side that took my breath away throughout the entire runtime. Not only is the film beautiful to watch, but it also features three surprising and unpredictable twists. An impressive experience. 80%.

The French have done it again. MR 73 is one of the grittiest crime dramas I've ever seen. This film is about honour! An homage to the torture, the courage, and the lives of the people the film is based on. The biggest highlight is definitely the birth at the end, which convinced me that I never wanted to see one with my own eyes in my life.

A very enjoyable and entertaining little thriller with a great cast. The film isn't afraid of nudity, it's abundantly present and there's also lesbian sex. We don't get too much thriller suspense, but there are enough uncomfortable chills and thrills. I had a great time. 75%.

A solid film, the only thing that bothered me were the numerous flashbacks, but otherwise it is a proper revenge flick featuring a 13 year old girl who takes out all her opponents. Decent fun. 70%

A very entertaining teen slasher in a very attractive location: a fairground or more precisely a haunted castle. Although there is no gore at all, we are treated to a great atmosphere and an excellent villain who has a perfect mask for his time. Tobe Hooper stumbled a bit with this.

An incredibly convoluted and smart horror film! The gore scenes and the visual effects effects were unfortunately weak, very unsatisfying for today, but what manages to captivate is the fictional intricacies between the characters, with victims becoming murderers and such. The twists and turns and the plot are great, but as far as the horror aspect is concerned, it's rather below average. 50%

Tony Scott's worst movie. I didn't like this artsy, boring little tale at all. The film is relatively short, but it struck me as uninteresting and long due to its indulgent nature: unscary, unfunny, uninteresting characters, and boring.

The first 40 minutes are excellent. The main character didn't take any crap with anyone or anything and the blood was flowing. Unfortunately, in the second half the film slowed down considerably and boredom set in, which is a pity, I was enjoying this French horror film. Fortunately, the very brutal ending was nice, but I'm not going for 4*. 65%

This didn’t interest me at all. I found a synonym for the word atmospheric: boring and uninteresting. The film flows terribly slowly, there’s nothing surprising, the story did not entertain me at all. There’s only one thing I can praise and that is the beautiful ten-second soundtrack with flute. 35%

Great remake! I wasn't too impressed with the original, probably because I was just starting out in Asia, so I really enjoyed the new Oldboy. The film grabs you from start to finish and doesn't let go! Even though there are only three action scenes, they are fucking brilliant and bloody. The pace of the film is very fast and dynamic, there is always something going on, being solved. Josh Brolin was perfect for the role, he's a proper tough guy! Just a great thrilling ride that will keep you entertained. 75%.

A cool action movie. I consider the unknown cast and the very unlikeable protagonist as a downside, but as far as action is concerned I am satisfied, even if there wasn't much of it. There is an excellent scene where the bad guy uses a very unusual weapon, roll meter, and of course there is a certain amount of brutality. It's watchable, but not great. 65%.

My most anticipated film of the year has finally received English language support! This is the perfect portrayal of a teenage traumatic upbringing of five fathers of thugs. Hwayi: A Monster Boy is hyper-actively stylish and ultra-violent!! I stress the word violent once again! This film features more gore than any horror film in the last two years! It's a very uncompromising over the top ride that will wipe the eyes of even the most hardcore fans. This has no competition, this is definitely the clear winner in the action/thriller genre for the last decade. The warehouse scene is such carnage I thought I was going to explode like a red-hot boiler. I fully recommend it!

For me, the best episode of the franchise. It's not as unbearably loud as the first one, nor as visually aggressive as second one, or as shallow in plot as in the third one, which bordered almost on a Mexican soap opera. It has proper with, unexpectedly funny scenes, good visual ideas, and during action scenes the camera circles the space in an interesting way and chooses unconventional angles. And the biggest surprise is the one I least expected it from. Martin Lawrence may still be a pain in the ass, but holy wonder, he's funny here too. Starting with the unwanted "visit to the beyond" the goofiness and his sort of messiah complex make sense and I just enjoy the dude as an actor, unlike, say, the king of awkwardness Kevin Hart. The only one who spoils it a bit is the character of Will Smith's nephew, the youngster just can't act and in all the scenes he looks equally impassive, as if he's not even enjoying it.

A pretty gripping story told through the eyes of a soldier in hard times about the way things are in the army. Sam Mendes is definitely a great director, but I wasn't impressed with this film. On the other hand, Jamie Foxx and his wisecracks are great. This is certainly a good movie, but it's not really to my taste and I would give it about 6.5-7 out of 10, but it's definitely worth a watch.
