Great change of tone
With it's minimal animation, stiff voiceovers and Japanese girlpop power vibe, it took me some effort to get into this. But this beautifully contrasts with the dark and vile direction it takes on later, and then, when it starts to mess with time and your head as well, the effort had been worth it!The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

Awesomeness, but did not leave me in awe
It's a beautiful grandiose piece of work. But somehow I was looking at it more than I was experiencing it. And why are these whining hobbits the chosen one? And why didn't Gandalf summon those giant birds earlier, to get them there immediately? WHYYY.T-34
A Russian ace tank commander is captured by the germans, but gets a unique opportunity to escape. With a tank, of course.

Tank porn. It exists.
A rather bold action flick showing loads of tanks with super slowmo shell penetrations and sweaty screaming Russians. I feared it was more of a videoclip than a movie, but the story catches up and makes it worthwhile and quite exciting indeed. Perfect for tank aficionados like me.Midnight Mass
A new priest comes to a small island with a deeply christian community. Alongside miracles, he brings something more sinister

Reli horror story with pleny of class (and monologues)
Very atmospheric, with a calm but steady pace, a slow but addictive built-up of mystery and loads of interesting characters. Many tend to talk in long, long, monologues which impresses at first, then starts to feel unnatural, then slowly become too much and even get in the way of the finale.Touch Me Not
I think it's about a woman trying to break through her fear of intimacy

Experimental sexual therapy
No, it's not soft erotica as the description might seem to suggest. Instead, it is an experimental, wandering movie that explores the meaning of sexuality to remarkable people. Cold due to the bright lights and analytical style, yet intimate by letting us in.Prometheus
Team sets out on a spacejourney to a investigate a distant location indicated by ancient cave drawings

Beautiful failure
Shattering beauty in an exciting alien universe - badly damaged by an unlikely crew doing unlikely things in a scenario full of WTF-moments.Raya and the Last Dragon
A girl sets out the unite a divided nation, but needs to revive the last Chinese dragon to do so

A sweet adventure with some new and some familiar stuff
A competent, colorful and quite exciting adventure. I liked how the appearance and behavior of the dragon wasn't 're-imagined' and stays close to the Chinese originals (even if they somewhat resemble Little Pony's®). The humor and inevitable morals in the story are a bit much, but ok.Leave the World Behind
A family on vacation find themselves cut off from the rest of the world, with an increasingly horryfying realization that something terrible is happening

A thrillride
All in all a really satisfying movie that draws you in by feeding you small chunks of the puzzle without overdoing or spoiling it. Interesting characters, interesting and well paced story.Underwater
People have to find their way up to the surface when something assaults and crumbles an underwater station

Not much new but still good underwater thrills
This was unexpectedly solid in fact. Not much wrong with the underwater and alien excitement at all. It is let down by the rather linear story with no real surprises, and looses an entire point for awful appearance of Stewart. God I wish she looked like she did in Camp X-ray in this.Turist
After a man's unheroic behavior during an avalanche, both the skiing vacation and relationship with his family is falling apart

Intriguing and very well acted
It beautifully showed how this single event was slowly infecting and spreading like disease in their marriage, courtesy of the textbook acting and gentle pacing and camera work. One of those movies I didn't plan on watching, but couldn't stop once I did.Movies found: 1043 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 181 - 190
