An enjoyable comedy from a school setting, with a great Ice Cube. They don't make many school comedies anymore, so I'm always happy for something like this where I'm reminded of the years of my life five years ago. It's funny, the pacing is brisk, and even though it doesn't offer anything innovative I didn't mind. 70%

The Spaniards are here again. This time I am not too impressed with their new film, but it is a solidly directed film that deserves attention. There is a serial killer on the loose in the city who only targets older women and two detectives are tasked with tracking him down. It’s more of a crime drama that only shifts into thriller mode in the final half hour, but there's certainly no shortage of suspense. I was expecting more brutality, maybe even a twist, but those who like similar films should give it a go. 65%

A fairly likable little kidnap thriller that entertains and manages to thrill at times, but disappoints all the more because there is no explicit violence or rape and it lacked an interesting twist. As it is, it doesn't have much to stand out from the competition. Mom and Dad is both similar and significantly better. 60%

Enjoyable shit!! Covenant has a slightly longer run-up than I would have liked and the opening isn't very engaging, but anyway, the 15-strong crew makes it clear from the start that the horror viewer is not going to be short of a high body-count, and it isn't. As soon as the crew sets off to visit a new planet, a densely atmospheric, juicily brutal (finally a decent use of the R-rating), visually arresting and at times goosebump-inducing inferno begins, and it doesn't let up until the climactic finale, which lasts around half an hour and meets the strictest criteria of a true horror fan. Michael Fassbender and Katherine Waterston are absolutely amazing, the white xenomorph is one of the most attractive creatures I've ever had the opportunity to see on screen, Baby Alien and the unexpected final denouement are also satisfying. Overall, it's got decent balls especially when the Alien is rampaging on screen. If it wasn't for the slower opening, I'd go for the full score. Nerds and nitpickers will probably grumble, others might be satisfied. Interesting fact: one old man was so turned on to the alien that he had to see it even at the cost of not being able to walk. Apparently, he wanted a repeat of the theatrical opening like 38 years ago. Story 8/10, Atmosphere 9/10, Gore 8/10, Visuals 10/10, Action 8/10, Suspense 8/10,Humor 2/10.

I avoided the film for a long time, which makes it all the more worthwhile at the end. I laughed a lot for the first half hour. The ego of the arrogant main character was over the line, but that's what made it interesting. Once the action shifts to grandma's house the blackly humorous comedy becomes a disturbing, slightly twisted and gripping thriller that sticks out in its originality. Very good, even surprising entertainment. 75%

The Italian version of Deadpool is a refreshing genre film that is very pleasant to watch. It's got pace, decent action, cool visuals and there's some violence, but I certainly wouldn't go overboard with the words (too much blood for Europe) Italy is far from the French. Interesting piece.75%

Compelling philosophical reflections, great actors, amazing gore orgy and breathtaking visuals. I'm getting more or less what I like from the series, so I'm satisfied. 85%

If you don't have a problem with India, here's a tip for an interesting thriller based on true events. The story revolves around a plane that is hijacked by terrorists and highlights the acting performance of the chief stewardess, whose courage earned her a medal for bravery and actually made her an icon of India. There is not much to add, it is suspenseful, nicely shot and very realistic. Those who like films on similar themes should not hesitate. 75%

I didn't enjoy this at all. An hour-long conversation where nothing interesting or exciting happens. Boring as fuck. 40%.

A pretty OK grindhouse B-movie that has great characters and is properly gritty. There's rape, some gore, the action showdown is very cool, but apart from that the film doesn't have much else to impress. For me, however, it was enough for one viewing. 60%.
