Basically the backstory of one of Starwars' rebel hero's

Slower and more wordy than Bold of of the Beautifull
Yes, I liked the ground based, real person, non-jedi approach too. A shoutout to the wonderful future retro design. Other than that, I am lost why this is praised so highly. I found it agonizingly boring, empty and slow, like the god awful and pointless prison episodes and discussions about banking.Warriors of the Future
Furure earth is polluted AND invaded by an alien plant, but high tech warriors attempt to use the plant to their advantage.

Cool action without a soul
Sure, there is some smart looking, pretty bad-ass exo-suit/robot/hi-tech warfare in here. But the movie is another truly awful Chinese attempt to copy dumb blockbuster vibes, boring characters, unclear action and yawn inducing cliche crap. Shit man, spend that money and CGI skills more wisely.Troll
A paleontologist (?) works with the government to prevent an accidentally awoken troll to thrash Oslo.

Only the monster is unique
Trolls are nice monsters for a change, and I somehow expected this to have a Nordic class of restraint, mysticism and folklore. Instead, they went with a full-on Hollywood blockbuster monster-movie vibe, with all the tired cliches and annoyances that come with it. Like you've already seen it.Hellraiser 2022

Yawning at cenobites
Despite the powerful images and lore it could built upon, this turned out incredibly bland, uninspired and boring. There is no tension curve, no interesting story, no likable characters and it's not scary at all. The quasi deep mumbling of the cenobites made me go 'whatever' and then fall asleep.Speak No Evil
Danish couple visits Dutch friends they met on vacation. The weekend slowly becomes agonizing, then turns into something much worse.

A tough watch, but the quality makes it a worthwile one
The feeling of ever growing discomfort really gets to you, and works well because of the natural acting and settings. It ends sad and depraved, but somehow feels like the right conclusion of the dread that had been accumulating.Fall

I forgot what movies can do to you
"These first 10 minutes were more exciting that the entire Starwars series we are watching," my wife remarked. And she was right. It may not be perfect or very realistic, but I can't remember a recent movie I shouted advice at, and which caused so much anxiety and sweaty hands.Terrifier 2
Girl faces a a clown that slaughters people in the most brutal ways

A bold slaughterfest with eighties vibe
There's plenty of shock value, with executions that are bloody and painful the watch. They also managed to set up an eighties vibe by the colors used, and perhaps even the acting style. But I also felt is was a bit long and pointless.Don't Worry Darling
A woman is living a perfect live in an isolated town, but she slowly discoveres something is off. Set in the 50's

An entertaining, mysterious puzzler with a dash of sciencefiction.
I love these "somethings-not-quite-right" movies, and this one certainly delivers. The energetic actors, color palette and lively fifties vibe add to the mix.House that Jack Built, The
A serial killer collecting the bodies in a freezer, and also trying to build a house

A shocker with depth
Jack's methods are not slick, but somewhat insecure and clumsy, which only adds to a the morbid sensation of watching going about his work and dragging around corpses. His constant dialogues with his conscience (?) and the peculiar use of stock footage elevates this movie from just being a shocker.Contracted
After a onenightstand, a woman's body starts decaying rapidly
Wittenberg

A decent little shocker
Overall, the woman's decay is shocking enough and wasn't overdone. Her struggle with it, and the oddly apathetic reaction of the people around her, adds to feeling of isolation and helplessness. The story is a little straightforward though, hardly going anywhere.Movies found: 1049 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 216 - 225
