You need to look like a fucking burglar

Out of inspiration and sheer boredom, an author begins to follow people at random. Although he creates certain and relatively clear rules for his hobby, the activity is somewhat stupid, but also scary, why not dangerous. Especially when the following turns into breaking and entering. With his debut work, Christopher Nolan manages to tell a lot in an hour. The powerful and interesting story even has a clever ending.

We must forget if we want to go on living

A unique and epic courtroom drama about the Nuremberg war trials. One of the landmark works in film history. A three-hour masterpiece bursting with star power (Burt Lancaster, William Shatner, Richard Widmark, Spencer Tracy, Judy Garland, Montgomery Clift, Marlene Dietrich, Maximilian Schell) and powerful storytelling. One of those films that you have to see in your lifetime. Directed by Stanley Kramer in 1961.

Burnt to a crisp

Osgood Perkins has made some pretty good horror films. Not groundbreaking by any means, but engaging and unique. Like Longlegs (2024) and The Monkey (2025). Unfortunately, there's nothing really worth mentioning here. Painfully boring and incredibly uninteresting, pretty rubbish, almost amateurish horror. A weekend trip to a remote cabin turns nightmarish and then the story just stops there.

A time uncountable by days

Two little brothers are adopted. They are separated at such a young age that they can't remember anything about it. More than 30 years pass and when one of the brothers needs bone marrow from a close relative, the truth is revealed to the boys. And so is the fact that the other one got a better start in life. A longer stick, so to speak. Emmanuel Courcol's The Marching Band is sufficiently touching and warm-hearted French drama.

Curses are lifted

A previous work from Hokum creator Damian McCarthy from 2024. And like Hokum, stylish horror storytelling, very true to the genre and as horror films should be, it's scary and atmospheric. The stone house a couple is reconstructing is haunted, and a blind medium arrives there to investigate his sister's death. A stone house a couple is reconstructing is haunted, and a blind medium arrives to investigate his sister's death. And the house's dead spirits give no one a moment's peace. 

The fog that stole souls

One of the best series of recent times, the ten episodes of which are easily devoured with enthusiasm. A wonderfully old-time horror story brought to the present day and suitably tongue-in-cheek. Overall, a nicely executed series created by Katie Dippold, with a new season already on the horizon and one can only hope that they understand how to end the series early enough so that it is not sadly just artificially revived in the future like it happened to Lost (2004-2010) and as is happening to From (2022-).

It's clobbering time

This is pure nonsense. Entertaining and well-made cartoon-like action, but there's no point in expecting anything great from this. Overall, a very mediocre and overly safe Marvel movie. The story is nothing special and the characters seemed pretty shallow. Their development has been badly overshadowed by CGI technology.

What is given, may be taken away

Impressive. An excellent Shakespearean drama, even. But without the first-rate acting (Jessie Buckley won an Oscar for best actress in a leading role), this would be easily forgotten. An emotional love story, tragic in places, and a story that pulls you in even when this kind of thing would normally bore you. 

The whip of thunder

The last part of The Roundup trilogy. Undoubtedly the weakest of the film series. Lots of violent action and acrobatic fight scenes, but the story is confusing and actually quite pointless. A Korean police unit tries to keep the city under control, but there are vile drug dealers everywhere and not all police officers can be trusted. The endless fights and action for the sake of action are starting to get boring. The humor is also starting to repeat itself. 

No goddamned trout for sale

Two brothers are committing robberies across Texas. And the Texas Rangers are on their trail. David Mackenzie's Hell or High Water (2016) is a pleasantly eventful modern day western. It's spiced up with an excellent soundtrack, brilliant acting (Jeff Bridges' character in particular stands out), and a strong story with great dialogue. In principle, a very traditional bank robbery movie, but top-notch in terms of entertainment.
