Fair horror
I loved the Indian setting and the story had potential, but ultimately it keeps relying on familiar tricks and I thought everyone was overacting a bit.Other Life
Scientist invents memory injections, but when it is used against her the line between real and artificial memory starts to blur

Lifeless
Nothing wrong with the idea, but it is let down by the miscasted lead playing the cocky, cold emo-scientist. The story is also annoyingly vague, and not in the intriguing, mind-bending way I was hoping for. A few days after watching this, my wife asked how it ended and I had no idea what to say.Other Lamb, The
A small cult with a single male leader herding only females lives in seclusion in the woods. Revolt looms.

Minimalistic but not
The cinematography is as sober and plain as the cult members live their lives. It's almost a collage of images and unspoken emotions instead of a traditional story, but you still can feel the revolution building up beneath the skin. Good.Osmosis
Futuristic clinic develops an implant that will help people find their soulmate. But there are plenty of problems as the grand opening comes closer.

An original but sterile scifi drama
These series score with originality, a gloomy atmosphere and a couple of interesting storylines. However, the scenery, characters and atmosphere are so ice-cold and sterile that it is hard to empathize any with it - nor did I find everything very logical.Osiris Child, The

Bits and pieces
At times this has some pretty graphics, some decent acting and some passable action scenes. But if also features some annoying characters to ruin things, and as a whole felt a bit directionless, and empty.Orphan: First Kill

Pointless and boring prequel
Many people were impressed bu apparent plot twist, but I was very bored with this empty shell, and found the acting was quite problematic. Adults acting like children is always so over the top, like they act like a caricature of a generic child. Weird and cringy.Orphan
After a miscarriage a family takes in an orphan, but they take in a lot more than they bargained for

Adult enough to avoid horror pitfalls, but doesn't add much either
For the most part it stays away from cheap scares, and has enough confidence to slowly but surely built up the tension and story, and reach a fairly creative reveal. But it fails to get under your skin as it remains slightly tame and suffers from some implausibility.Orbita 9
Woman on a long solo space mission gets a visit from a mechanic, after which she learns the true nature of her mission

Nice scifi with a twist. One twist - early on.
With a plotline that it's impossible to describe accurately without ruining it, this is a pleasant scifi done just fine. It's just that, after the big twist it's, sort of de-energizes a few notches. When the big reveal is almost at the beginning, it's harder to keep us hooked.Oppenheimer

A fascinating drama disguised as an adrenline action ride
A very intense and splendidly shot, acted and directed movie. But part of me thought Nolan was cheating, by presenting what is essentially a drama as an pumping action movie, using all of his film-making prowess. There was a dissonance beween what was actually happening and how it was presented.Open Water 2: Adrift
People on a yacht trip jump in the water to go for a swim, but forgot to put down the ladder first

It will pull you in, too
I didn't want to go see this movie, but the terrifying story and suspense did keep me glued to the screen. The confusing ending with mixed memories from a past wasn't really necessary.Movies found: 1046 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 341 - 350
