Three stars are a bad way to average out a contradictory project that began with my enthusiasm in the first season and ended in deep disappointment during the third season. It must be admitted that the creators managed to extract from very little (the project manages with a minimum of locations and effectively only a…

Only very rarely does a series succeed in creating an atmosphere and style that are difficult to liken to anything else. This series exudes bizarreness, darkness, and the mustiness of decades-old, neglected corners of a decaying house full of inhabitants with twisted characters, corroded by invisible evil. Sticky…

The most ambitious in content, the most magnificent in production design and the strongest in characters of the entire Dollar Trilogy. Unfortunately, it's also excruciatingly long, and as iconic as Morricone's music is, it's mostly about its central melody. Eli Wallach is the most interesting and best-acted character.…

The comparison between Candy and Love & Death is absolutely fantastic. Two miniseries based on the same true crime case filmed around the same time for different networks. Love & Death is a more charming, entertaining HBO drama with attractive actors and a grand courtroom atmosphere in the style of David E.…

The development of the Batwoman series is truly intriguing. The first season emerged at a time when the Arrowverse was expanding into unprecedented dimensions. The solo "Batwoman" series had a great reputation among readers after 2011, but the fundamental problem was that its comic book depiction was geared towards…

The first-ever Scary Movie is the best of the entire series, next to the third installment, thanks to the selection of films it parodies, most notably the iconic Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, which are teen classics in their own right. Anna Faris was still a star within comedies back then, and Regina…

It is the third installment that is the brightest spot in the entire Scary Movie franchise, as it takes aim at perfect horror films like The Ring, Signs, and The Others. The opening scene with the dumb blondes, the verbal shoot-outs about rats, mice and zombies or the wacky president and the truly hilarious Samara,…

Jane Eyre is a timeless classic from the pen of one of the most famous female writers of her time, which comes to life once again in an extraordinarily impressive film adaptation. An orphan, who has been pushed from one evil to another since he was a young child, grows up to become a young and intelligent woman who…

Downfall is a prime example of a quality historical film that mixes authentic events, perfect acting and great technical workmanship. It tells the story of a man who can be a caring husband and affable employer on the one hand, but also a monster without a drop of compassion on the other. We are, of course, talking…

Dracula, an infinitely cruel and ruthless ruler, but at the same time an immensely loving man, struggles through the centuries to find the love of his life again. This (literally immortal) story comes to life in Francis Ford Coppola's adaptation, with Gary Oldman giving an absolutely brilliant performance as the…
