She Will
Older moviestar and her nurse go to a secluded place to recover, but the spirit of witchcraft still lingers there

Great atmosphere, lacking story
It laid down a promising groundwork for a modern witchcraft tale, but I felt it ran out of ideas and became a somewhat uneventful movie not really going anywhere, and without a satisfying ending.After Yang
A man tries to get his broken droid and familymember fixed, and finds out a deeper level in it than he realized

Atmospheric but ultimately too thin
Saturated with a mellow and melancholic atmosphere that almost gets you in a dreamy state as well. I appreciative how it's more of a wandering, soul-searching sort of poetry than a clear-cut story, but ultimately I found it too thin on substance to make a lasting impression.Next
A guy can see two minutes into the future, which brings him into trouble when he is asked to help prevent a terrorist attack

Idea not fully utilized
It's a nice idea that provides some fair entertainment. But a nuclear terrorist attack is not the most inspirational thing they could have done with it. The 'gift' soon becomes gimmicky and the story a little standard.Paranormal Activity: Ghost Dimension
It's about ghostly activity all caught on camera

Fresh in the wrong place
They invoke some more obvious, frequent and in your face material, which I can understand was necessary to breath some live into the formula. But the slow, nail biting chance of maybe catching a glimpse kind of was the point. So now it starts to er towards a regular horror glued by jumpscares.Aporia
A widow gets her husband back by using her friend's machine that perhaps failed at time travel, but can kill a person in the past

Slowish and sober, but still a worthwhile time puzzler
I am quite a sucker for these sober, intimate, low-budget movies that still deliver a clever story and time travel puzzles. This one did indeed fall into that category, although it was a bit lackadaisical and perhaps too minimalistic.Jarhead 2: Field of Fire
Supply mission in Afghanistan turns bad and turns into a mission of a very different nature
Wittenberg

ok-ish, next time believe in yourself
It's not a bad war movie. It is, however, a little too preoccupied with setting up mandatory warmovie cliches and visuals, and showing how great and fun the military is. The Taliban apparently also have serious aiming issues.Ip Man
The (true?) story of a Kung Fu master who stood up against the Japanese during ww2.

Good and bad things from China
It's not always an easy watch because of that painful Chinese overacting and slapstick performances that make it feel like a farce. But as the war begins, the colors fade and gradually it strikes a more serious and interesting tone, and the elaborate superfast kung fu keeps it afloat.Cruela
How Cruela de Vil, you know the villain from 101 dalmatians, came to be

Well made, just not much in here for me personally
This was received well and praised highly, and I can see the well made and well told story in it. Personally, I was hoping for it to be a bit more vile, more shock, more magic and a lot less about fashion. It has a bit of a happy musical vibe that is not my cup of tea.Black Sea
Sacked submarine pilot gathers team to find golden treasure on the bottom of the Black Sea
Wittenberg

Somewhat exciting but slightly shallow
With both paranoia and claustrophobia in the same story, it should have gone overdrive in nail-biting tension. But it feels a bit forced and sluggish, so we're left with a fair submarine movie with a couple of exciting scenes.Dracula Untold
Vlad needs extra powers to save his town and people, so he drinks the blood from a dark figure and becomes a vampire.
Wittenberg

Nothing really good, nothing really bad
I can appreciate how it doesn't overdo things, but at the same time it doesn't excel in anything either. It's all a bit flat and muffled. And you know, maybe vampires are not that scary or impressive anymore.Movies found: 1048 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 306 - 315
