Fallout is teetering between 3 and 4 stars. One might assume that for die-hard fans of the game it would be more like 4 and the opposite for the uninitiated. From the perspective of someone who has never seen or played the famous game, form clearly trumps content. I'll leave aside the fantastic visuals and special…

Due to the imaginative nature of the whole concept (Japanese folk horror meets Dexter meets Black Mirror), it repeatedly cycles through (necessary) passages where one character explains at length to the other (read the viewer) "who, what, why, how". It doesn't have a breakneck pace, and it feels a touch longer than…

“Titanfall”, but without the balls. Literally. Weak visual effects, a leaky script and an unlikeable protagonist. It's not just that Jennifer Lopez's acting is bad, she's playing an unlikeable cow that Agent Smith should slap around. Weird dialogue, bland action, and the only thing that can be praised is the…

What else to expect from Vojtěch Jasný, a man with a big heart, than a pure poetic film. The first thing that catches the eye after a few seconds is the rousing music by Svatopluk Havelka, which runs through the whole film. All four short stories are simple in plot, it's the atmosphere and visual experience that's…

A more melancholic and weepy version of Me Before You in the lower middle class. Javier Bardem is excellent, there are some great ideas and some interesting dialogue, but it's primarily the strength of the premise and its existential overtones than how it's executed. The love triangle was like something cut out of a…

There's probably no need to nitpick all the quirks surrounding the intervention in the warehouse. Sure, it was a pretty action-packed episode, but the action wasn't the main event. The real fun happened elsewhere, particularly with the "honest" banter between Tearney and Taverner. I love how the creators effortlessly…

A low-key and unusual slasher from Australia that's worth a watch. Scare Campaign is a popular Prank TV show that scares its victims, but one day they will pay the price. The film has some pretty fresh twists throughout, impresses with solid gore and thanks to the sweet 80 minute running time, it goes by pretty…

Probably the weakest of the X-men movies, but it's still good fun. I was struck by the rather dull visual effects, the weaker action and the not very interesting new X-men, but I found some positives here. Quicksilver steals the movie for himself again with his amazing scene, I was also intrigued by the connection to…

Although the trailer looked promising, the film itself passed me by in an arc that made me puzzled by the praise. I wasn't entertained, I was bored, the action was almost non-existent, two plus points for a minor brutal scene and a the fairly good visuals. A gangster/non-ganster, anthology/non-anthology movie, I don't…

A acclaimed Korean affair that has rocked festivals, cinemas and audiences from an acclaimed director who has made brutal thrillers like The Chaser and The Yellow Sea and strikes again. The Wailling is perhaps a mix of all genres from horror (there is exorcism, gore, contagion, virus) with elements of comedy, crime…
