Another year, another remake of a recent foreign movie. I managed to see the Danish/Dutch original, also titled Speak No Evil (2022), one night before watching this movie. That movie is a masterclass in tension while it touches on many societal themes (emasculation, politeness, power dynamics). Long story short, I enjoyed my time with it,…

Unlike many, I didn’t grow up on the original Twister (1996), and I only watched it for the first time a couple of years ago and thought it was fine. So, I wasn’t particularly “hyped” for this sequel; however, after some initial reactions, I felt if I were to see this movie, I should do…

I am old enough to remember when the original Mean Girls (2004) film came out. It took me two viewings to get into it, and I still wouldn’t say it’s my favourite movie. However, within that genre, it undeniably left a mark on our pop culture and helped to put some young girls (at the…

This movie is all kinds of weird. I will put aside my Czech bias of this movie, based on a Czech novel (Spaceman of Bohemia), and the fact this movie contains only some tiny Czech Easter eggs, but the main roles are an American man and an English lady with no attempt to do any…

Bradley Cooper and I have a complicated relationship. Firstly, it’s one-sided, as he doesn’t know I exist. Secondly, and much more importantly, I have always liked him as an actor, even when his main schtick was doing “just comedies”. He was charming and seemed like a chill dude who would be fun to talk to. And…

It took me a few weeks to finally see this movie in the cinemas, so by that point, I had heard mostly positive reviews about this film and how charming everything was. So naturally, I was hoping for a lovely, charming and joyfully magical movie and what I got was that, but… Wonka is one of those…

This is a “me” issue, but I wasn’t as hyped for Napoleon as everyone around me seemed to have been. I knew a few things about him, and I don’t find him any more or less fascinating than other rules, who, at one point in time or another, conquered a vast amount of the world. But, the…
