All of my movie reviews…
Your enjoyment of this movie will be directly influenced by whether and how much you like Aaron Sorkin as not only “the screenwriter”, but also Aaron Sorkin “the director”. Because The Trial of the Chicago 7 is the purest Sorkin I have seen since… maybe ever? The fact he’s behind the camera and not “just”…

Before we dive into the review itself, can we just (and by “we” I mean Hollywood people in charge of coming up titles for movies) stop naming movies “Bad _____”? Honestly, this is the third movie and fourth “content” called Bad Education, next to the TV show Bad Education (2012), (hence the word content), the…

When comes to sequel(s) to classic movies, I am always a bit too sceptical. Let alone after almost 40 years, where the story usually revolves around “let’s catch up with our hero and see how miserable he/she is”. And Doctor Sleep is no exception, at least for the later part, as we do follow adult…

The Old Guard is based on a comic book (anybody remotely surprised at this point?) but let’s just get down to the business – it’s Highlander (1986) except without the Queen’s soundtrack, Christopher Lambert or Sean Connery but with Charlize Theron, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Dudley (Harry Melling) from Harry Potter movies, so… upgrade…? Downgrade? I…

Biopics are hit or miss with me. That is why I went into this one with not only no expectations, but also no knowledge of what actually happened back in 1996. I had no idea there was a guy named Richard Jewell, I had no idea that he went from a hero, who was just…

I remember hearing really good things about this movie a year ago, when it came out. But then, regretfully, I have forgotten all about it. But couple of weeks ago, some movie people I follow on Twitter started to “argue” that even though it’s really new, Klaus is a Christmas movie done right and will…

The Grinch is definitely one of the better movies that came out of Illumination Entertainment. Yes, the studio behind the Despicable Me trilogy, that had also given us minions, and not just the annoying yellow creatures, that somehow became the template for all of your “cool” auntie’s memes (if you don’t believe me, google “Minion…

Ad Astra feels familiar, yet different. It mixes Interstellar (2014), 2001 A Space Odyssey (1968) and Gravity (2013) together to create something that’s not as great as either of those film, but it’s still interesting nevertheless. Also, it take the “best” elements of those movies (space travelling feeling of Interstellar, the slow pace of 2001…
