Incorrect, caustic to sarcastic humor, crazy situations, and above all, entertaining characters that quickly draw you into the world of illegal bookies and their clients with varying degrees of gambling addiction. If you ever had any illusions about the human species, you'll quickly forget them under the influence of…

The influence of Tim Burton is evident; at first glance, the slightly morbid and quirky artistic aspect of the project influenced by the Gothic style stands out. A major plus is the casting of the interesting and charismatic Jenna Ortega, who seems to have been born for the role of Wednesday; she perfectly fits the…

The initial reviews likened it to "something like Fargo, set in the middle of the Australian desert," and I would say the creative team aimed for something similar. However, The Tourist didn't come close to Fargo's model due to an underdeveloped screenplay, which, while it introduced some interesting ideas, failed to…

This Czech interpretation of true crime succeeded. The subject was easy to choose because the Stodola couple became legends of criminology years ago. Director Petr Hátle relied on a pair of actors who are fairly new. Jan Hájek has directed plenty of average things, and Lucie Žáčková is also a much more prominent…

The most mediocre and classic mainstream horror genre film that can possibly be made for the least discerning audience (teenage girls). On the one hand, I appreciate that the whole movie isn't just haunted by one boogeyman, but every single protagonist has their own demon and they surprisingly have great make-up…

This film tries to play at being something more than it is, and that hurts it. I found the story both uninteresting and overcomplicated, but there were some positives. The villain is great, his constant smiling is powerfully provoking and the massacre in the hospital is a strong moment in the film. For a debut, the…

A solid, intelligent and suspenseful thriller. Imagine your wife dies and a year from now on that day she calls you on the phone? And you have a unique chance to change your wife's future! From this point on, it's quite a gripping suspenseful ride full of interesting twists and turns, detective investigation and a…

I first saw Metropolis in 2011, and a decade later I decided to rewatch one of the greatest films of the first half of the 20th century. The novel's Thea von Harbou exhibits visionary traits, and Fritz Lang's adaptation is no different. As one of the last films of German Expressionism, Metropolis is no longer as…

A parody set to the sounds of czardas, full of truly funny moments and allusions to horror vampire classics, led by the excellent master of parody Leslie Nielsen, who knows very well how to entertain the viewer. Then there's the slightly different Van Helsing, who has fun intimidating students during dissections, or…

This legendary comedy, directed by Billy Wilder, still retains its wit and humour after half a century. The perfect performances of the main "male" duo Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon are complemented by the great Marilyn Monroe, who was really pretty. Lots of verbal innuendos, funny moments, catchy music, interesting…
