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.Gods of the Deep

Pulp that almost wins sympathy, but the amateurism was just too much
When you have no budget, is it foolish or courageous to make an underwater movie? Either way, I was tempted to give this fun borderline amateur movie some credit in all it's cheesiness, but the silly story and Numark audio mixer serving as pilot controls were just too distracting.Monolith
The host of a radioshow about the unexplained, picks up on a story about mysterious black bricks - a story that comes close to her as well.

A decent single location mystery
A risky movie, featuring mostly a single person in a single location, but I thought it succeeded pretty well in setting up an interesting mystery puzzler, with a dash of scifi. There was room for some more intricacies if you ask me, but all in all good job.Eerie
A girl school is haunted. The school psychiatrist (?) tries to find out how this came to be so.

A tiresome, unscary horror with nothing new to offer
The low saturated colors give this movie a somewhat tight and professional look, but that's just superficial. The truth is that it has only a very loose script and tired cliche horror moments on offer. It really got quite boring and stopped being scary early on.Road, The
Father and son try to survive in a ravaged world, where all life has died and the last humans have resorted to cannabalism

Moving but very comfortless
A very bleak and depressing affair, almost excessively so. You start to wonder if there ought to be some kind of payoff for enduring all of this, but I am not sure there was. But I have to say, I was moved by it.Saw X
When fraudulent people take advantage of the SAW mastermind's cancer, he subjects them to his sinister traps

Stupid movie that pushed the wrong buttons with me
Were the victims in the previous parts also bad humans, getting what they deserved? I can't remember, but I found it far fetched and dumb. I reached a state of irritation, meaning I also found all these traps ridiculous. I mean how much time would each cost to even set up correctly? I'm out.Ghost Story, A
After a deadly car accident, a man wakes up as a ghost and dwells in his former house, with his former girlfriend

A unique point of view in a unique movie
The long, sometimes very long, static scenes mean this movie will not be for everyone. But for me, it neatly visualized the endless time ghost exist in, until their unresolved issue is dealt with. I also loved the ghost perspective, and it is quite haunting and even touching at times.Days, The
Series about the Fukushima disaster

Surely this was more nerve wrecking?
We followed this series with interest, but it felt like it failed to capture the terrifying race against time this must have been. There's a lot of staring, sitting around, hesitation and discussion. An on-point observation about Japanese culture perhaps, but I wonder if it went this way.Horsehead
A young woman is plagued with nightmares, and tries to master lucid dreaming to figure it out

A failure
Somewhere in the distance there may be some good intentions, but ultimately this is a failure due to amateuristic direction. It results in loads of random pointless stuff happening for way too long, a lack of a clear story or focus, and not understanding of what makes movies scary.Poor Things
A scientist revives a woman, who then explores the world and herself through the eyes of a child

An irresistably bizarre and unqiue movie
A wildly bizarre but incredibly rich movie, that is beautiful to look at, features amazing characters, is surprisingly funny and is simply unlike anything else - without being arrogant about it.Movies found: 1042 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 21 - 30
