Gorgeous to look at, with really decent shark terror as well
This is beautifully shot and was made with much finesse. At times, the imagery of the ocean feels like living paintings. Acting and thrills are also good, making this one of the better sharks movies out there.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.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.Looper
Assassin kills victims that are being sent from the future... until they sent his futureself

Mean and original
Apart from a slowish middle section, it's a wicked, smart and playfull timetravel movie.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.Land of Mine
After WWII, young german POW's are brougt to Denmark to clear the beaches of mines

A good movie about something bad
Needless to say a rather depressing affair, but it isn't dwelling in it's misery. There's a (intentional?) contrast with the sunny beach, mellow light and ordeal that is taking place. The developing relationship with the ruthless captain and the boys worked for me.Mountain
A documentary that explores our relationship with mountains
Wittenberg

A poetic analysis
Instead of a dry analytic approach, it chooses a more poetic blend of music, philosophic narration and plenty of spectacular images. Very beautiful, but I remained on my couch nonetheless. And while the sport scenes are probably rightfully part of the story, they felt a bit dissonant to me.Grave of Fireflies
A brother and his little sister try to make it through the bombardments of worldwar 2
Wittenberg

Honest and sad
A sad and sober story without much window dressing, instead focusing on these kids and their innocence, and heart shattering daily tasks of looking for shelter and food. I wasn't as destroyed by it as some viewers apparently were, but that's just because I have no emotions.Superbad
Two constantly arguing but inseparable friends on a mission to get booze and laid on the last party of the year

The Tarantino of highschool movies
The constant and lengthy foul-mouthed dialogues and contemplations create an atmosphere reminiscent of Tarantino movies. It's kind of like an adult version of highschool movies. Cool.Movies found: 1046 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 331 - 340
