Action packed scifi
This movie adds a whole new dimension to the term bullet time (great scene on how to shoot up robots for dummies). The story line is somewhat overly dramatic at times, but man... the action and visuals are impressive!Wittenberg

Intense movie
This movie sucks you right in, forces the viewer to smell the desert and all the rotten things that will happen later on. Great acting, intense experience...Wittenberg

Hot and involving
The Texas desert heat oozes of the screen, as does a firework display of class acting. The slow pacing only contributes to the constant feeling of stress and dredd of things to come.The Eyes of my Mother
When her mother is killed during a home invasion, the daughter grows up isolated to develop increasingly strange and sadastic ways

Not for everyone perhaps, a delicacy
It has a unique atmosphere that is dark, sad and macabre, even of the blood won't show red in the black and white execution.The Hateful Eight
Bounty hunter, his prisoner, and a bunch of cowboys get stranded in an inn, in a Agatha Christie kind of setting

Who can be trusted? Damn those cowboys, just shoot them all...
Typical Tarantino twists, blood, gore, and humour in a successfull blend of western and detective elements. The story slowly unfolds in this somewhat lenghty movie, but manages to grasp your attention until the last second....Ghost in the Shell (2017)
Live action Manga remake of the android fighting crime, her past and herself

It gets it right
So people were complaining this had no depth, but were fine with Avengers? Screw that. This is an awesome looking movie that is exciting throughout and has plenty of depth and bucketloads of atmosphere. It also strikes a good balance between a 'western take' and the core Japanese original.American Hustle
Con man and con woman doing a lot of conning, with Feds, politicians and mobsters involved

Great acting in a movie filled with conning
Conning, trickery, treason and seduction with a thin layer of comedy showing through occasionally, in a balanced movie with great acting by the main charactersMemoria
Woman occasionally hears a sound that noone else does, and sort of wanders about trying to figure it out

Not suitable for jitterbugs, quite magical for the rest of us
This will put you to the test, as it consist entirely of static shots that take an eternity and in which very little appears to happen. It may be a bit arrogant and pretentious (and boring?) at times, but the setup also constitutes a serene, mysterious and hypnotic atmosphere that is very special.The Covenant
An American soldier's life in Afghanistan is saved by a local translator, a debt he gets to pay back.

Good and gripping
A good war movie with some tense moments, good performances and a gripping story of debt and friendship. I was quite moved by it. Only their perfect aim, especially compared to the Taliban's, was a bit dissapointing.The Babadook
Widow is trying to get by with her needy son when she also releases a shadowy presence in her house by reading a strange childrens book

Succesful on multiple levels
Even more than the restrained and tasteful horror story, I was impressed by the suffocating and agonizing experience of watching her slide into insanity, due to sleep deprivation, desperation and social seclusion. It's sad, original, scary and intense. Bravo.The Beaver
