This movie… I don’t get it. The story is a pretty ordinary “I need to live my own life” coming of age tale; the path this movie takes is also predictable (her singing clashing with her family “responsibilities”), and that becomes a significant plot point later. The only difference is the CODA stuff (Child of…

I need to show my hand pretty early on here – I didn’t enjoy The Power of the Dog. I am writing this review right after the Oscar nominations for 2022, where it collected impressive 12 nominations. And I watched it only a couple of days ago, so it’s freshly in my mind. And I will…

One thing I admired about Nobody is how quickly the movie announced itself. For better or worse, you know what you are in for after the opening two minutes of this film. And, paradoxically, that opening (or the decision to start your movie from the ending) informed me that I might not have the time of my…

I don’t get it. This movie has three ultra-mega-super-duper stars that all proven they can carry movies, and those were all actions movies nonetheless! So how come, when you put Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds together in one movie and let them “loose”, you get something like Red Notice that is not bad, but also not great? This film might…

Let’s get something straight from the getgo – if you have ever visited my blog, you know I am a Star Wars simp/fan/enthusiast… whatever you want to call me, it’s probably a fair label. So take this review with a pinch of salt because I know I might be one of the few (based on…

This will be a weird review for me to write, as I will admit it straightaway – Eternals is without a doubt MCU’s weakest film in a good couple of years. It has a lot of issues; it throws a bunch of new characters your way; it was directed by Chloé Zhao, who up until now had not…

As I hinted in my Encanto (2021) review, I have seen Luca, and I liked it. Even though it came out way earlier than Encanto, for some reason, it took me a while to get to this film. And that was a shame because I enjoyed it. Not as much as I have enjoyed Encanto, but still… I promise this entire review I…

I won’t lie – this was one of the Marvel movies that didn’t speak to me enough to see it in the cinema. Part of it was because of the ongoing pandemic, and the other part… I simply didn’t know enough about this character. And this is where I have learned not to doubt the…
