The Outfit (2022)
Very good movie
Shot entirely in one place. Well sewed up story. Not too much not too less. Balanced pace and good ending. Good acting overall. Focus on the story and less on irrelevant scenes and light shows. Recommended.
Encanto (2021)
No Encanto
Very interesting idea but boring and not so magical execution. Wasted potential. Flat story and predictable. Songs are forgettable. No Disney magic here.
Lupin (2021)
Disappointing Part 2
Entertaining Part 1. Shame Part 2 was a lot less entertaining, lazy writing.
Raya and the Last Dragon (2021)
Disney can do better
Visually is ok but the rest is not. The story is boring and a bit too obvious. No surprises here. It is watchable at best.
Amend: The Fight for America (2021)
Interesting historic view on equality
Good documentary about the 14th amendment and the fight for equality (racial, gender, etc.) in the US. More focused in the history and not so much in discussing the present times. Smart decision.
Animals on the Loose: A You vs. Wild Movie (2021)
Too artificial
Very artificial. Story is so so but some situations are rather unrealistic.
News of the World (2020)
Very good movie
Good acting. Interesting journey across Texas. Overall a good western. Feels like a well thought movie, good mix of paces. The idea is not to have action just for the sake of it. Does not try too hard, which is a good thing.
Hotel Artemis (2018)
Very watchable movie
Ok story. Good performance from Jodie Foster. If you have some free time deserves a try.
The Dig (2021)
Very good acting, interesting war drama
Interesting story with a classical emotional war drama pace. Very good acting. This movie was silky smooth.
Bridgerton (2020)
Boring.
Not worth watching. What a disappointment. Netflix should use their money to produce better shows.
Soul (2020)
Interesting idea
I enjoyed the movie's idea but I felt it lacked a proper ending. Therefore 7 and not 8.
Room 2806: The Accusation (2020)
Some interesting parts
Interesting to watch if you want to know more about this case. Not worth watching otherwise. Just a pity it does not offer DSK's take on the case.
Mank (2020)
Boring.
Dull story. Dull picture. Pointless use of black and white.
Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey (2020)
Not a Christmas movie
Feels more like a BLM statement than a real Christmas movie. Equality is not this. The story does not feel like a Christmas movie at all. It's a banal fantasy flick.
Rebecca (2020)
Better than expected
Very decent movie. Interesting story about a man that was terrorized by a manipulative woman. A movie about complicated and destructive women.
The Queen's Gambit (2020)
Very good first episode.
Very promising show. Perfect tempo. Interesting story.
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2020)
Funny at times, previous are better
Clearly too many people already know Borat. Funny movie at times but no longer scandalous as before. Donald Trump and Co. are the new target. Perfect movie for Joe Biden's campaign.
David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet (2020)
Well made documentary
There's not much new here but it is surely very well made.
The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020)
Less scary than The Haunting of Hill House
Very good show but not at the same level of The Haunting of Hill House. Much less scary.
Enola Holmes (2020)
Uninteresting story
The story is at times too predictable and too feminist. They should have focused on the story.
Venom (2018)
Funny movie
Funny movie and way more entertaining than Black Panther.
Black Panther (2018)
Nothing special
So much hype for a banal movie. Nothing interesting happens in more than 2 hours. Classic story with no surprises. No reason for such a poor movie to get so much attention.
