Sulfuric and hydroflouric acid for blood

A group of young people want to change their miserable home planet to a planet with at least one Sun. With a brighter future in mind, they need to hijack a deserted spaceship that just happens to be floating around useless. But of course, that's the one where the alien monsters reside! Alien Romulus started off great, a good idea and proper tormenting claustrophobic horror in the making. But the potential was promptly killed.

Hope is just another burning soul

Be prepared to see something you have never seen before. Everything in Adolescence is great. Mind-blowing even. Everything but the story. The cinematography is pure magic and the acting, wow, it's properly done, thought-out and executed to absolute perfection. The uncomplicated story is the only downfall. This four episode thriller mini series was created by Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne.

Rumors are often revealing

Jewish refugee Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) plots a revenge against the Nazis who slaughtered her family. It catches the attention of the Basterds, a group of guerrilla soldiers led by Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt). Things might end up in a bloodbath and the deaths of key figures in the leadership of the German Nazis. Quentin Tarantino's war movie Inglourious Basterds (2009) is wicked and entertaining historical nonsense.

Fuel for astronomy

An ordinary car mechanic from Essex, UK, meets a draq queen. Sort of fancies her. And a whole new world appears and ignites a love story of two different people. That's all there is to it, pretty average drama as a whole.

Prayers don't work

It's fucking solid piece. Hugh Grant is great. Superstitious mumbo-jumbo doesn't fuck up the suspense and thrills in its religious horror entirety. A killer film.

A passage through thunder

Gard B. Eidsvold's performance as Vidkun Quisling (1887-1945) is one of the greatest and most memorable acting performances I've seen in recent years. Every single detail in his portrayal seems to be thought-out to perfection and makes a huge impact on the movie. Vidkun Quisling was a Norwegian Nazi collaborator in charge of Norway's government during the country's occupation by Germany during World War II. An intriguing and insightful film by Erik Poppe.

Eyeless hellbound blues

They probably ruined The Crow's (1994) legacy with four other sequels already, but this fucking thing is blasphemous beyond everything. Quasi-Gothic trash with a story that is an absolute mess. Some graphic violence to lift up spirit, but an abomination otherwise. 

Never to return

Season # 3 made Seinfeld a household name with eight Emmy nominations. It comprises 23 episodes and it was initially aired in 1992. According to the co-creator Larry David the season three was a big turning point for the series in terms of how the show was made. The episodes are some of their best: The Pen, The Parking Garage, The Red Dot, The Subway and my personal favourite The Limo.

A little puppet on a string

It's pretty good nostalgia. Harmless fantasy horror and proper eye candy. But unfortunately too many sidestories took momentum away from the main one and everything was a bit rushed. Nothing iconic, an easily forgettable movie.

The day after the wheels of shadow

Cafe owner Kato gets a message from himself. He gets it from the TV screen in his own cafe which is two minutes ahead of time thus showing images from the future. Together with his friends they start to play around with it. Perhaps make some profit from the peculiar time machine. Thank heavens, Beyond the Infinitive Two Minutes lasts only 70 minutes because the mindfuck it generates becomes a bit too thick to chew. Pretty clever - and funny - little thing nevertheless.  

Road of the righteous

Frustrating, overly sentimental, clichéd and soulless little thriller. It makes no sense why Robert De Niro and John Malkovich decided to be part of this abomination where a recovering drug addict becomes a vigilante.

Like wolves in the sun

A progressive hearing loss makes a detective feel himself useless. A security risk even. His hearing aid dies down while working on a case. He ends up trapped in an apartment building to be demolished with a deaf girl who is a witness in a murder case and there's a plenty of bad people wanting to kill her dead! The Silent Hour is a predictable and flawed thriller.

Evil has many faces

Ivan (Mads Mikkelsen) is a priest in a rural church. He's suspiciously happy, sees the world through rose-colored glasses yet convinced he's at war with Satan. The rectory is also a halfway house for paroled convicts. In comes a neo-Nazi (Ulrich Thomsen) sentenced to community service who immediately questions the minister's faith and view of the world. Brilliant dark comedy, absolutely hilarious. Directed by Anders Thomas Jensen. 

Boiling brains on an atomic level

Popcorn cinema for people who don't think so much. It's photoshopped Marvel action with so much jokes and snappy one-liners that it becomes exhausting. The story is just a mere footnote and renders itself useless before it even started.

Bad time for rats

Swedish secret agent Carl Hamilton gets in contact with German terrorists and joins their posse. He's undercover. Their plan include an attack against the CIA headquarters in Stockholm. They've filmed quite a lot of Jan Guillou's book series with Swedish heavyweights such as Peter Stormare, Mikael Persbrant, Jakob Oftebro and Stellan Skarsgard in the leading role. The Democratic Terrorist (1992) is decent, but nothing more.

Living in the clouds

AI moves into a family of five. She learns the family's behaviors and anticipates their needs, she's a helpful little fucker. But she also comes with disturbing features. Pretty interesting techno thriller/horror movie, but lacks in suspense. A lost oppurtinity really.

Sometimes a sinner

Intruders pop up at James and Kristen's summer home and they come up with bad intentions. It's stuff of nightmares. These masked strangers are no good. At times, The Strangers, by Bryan Bertino, is truly bloody scary. Entertaining breath taking horror. Too bad though that all the characters are stupid beyond belief.
