Don't Look Back (2009)

👎

[3/10 · 19 January 2022]

The film disappointed.

Disappointed many. But, first of all, an undisclosed plot. The director, Marina de Van, took on a job that was beyond her. She failed to clearly convey the idea to the viewer, to reveal the content. The film leaves more questions than it answers.

111 minutes I was trying to figure out what's what... But when I realized, I was disappointed. The pretentiousness of the film does not correspond to the content. Figuratively speaking, it turned out to be a loud, but blank shot...

For example, it remains a mystery to me why, after the accident, the heroine stayed with a strange woman? Why didn't her parents bother to take her daughter back home? Why did she imagine her husband in the image of her brother (and already an adult), although she saw him in early childhood and could not know what he looks like now? What's the point in the fact that half of the film Monica Bellucci was plump, as if by leaps and bounds? And many, many more questions...

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

Cool

[10/10 · 19 January 2022]

8.9 out of 10-really? The Dark Knight is undeniably visually impressive, full of flashy special effects, stunning production design and spectacular action set-pieces, but the fans who have rated this film so highly clearly have as little grip on reality as its antagonist The Joker (Heath Ledger).

152 minutes of relentlessly dark, dreary, depressing drama-the enjoyment factor turned down to the lowest possible setting-this overly complex and frequently logic-free sequel to Batman Begins sees director Christopher Nolan once again presenting the antics of a man dressed as a bat in a completely humourless fashion. And if Nolan is going to take matters so seriously, then so am I...

Forrest Gump (1994)

....

[4/10 · 19 January 2022]

6 Oscars, laudatory reviews of film critics, 700 million fees, Tom Hanks cast. All this after watching the movie suggests the idea - for what?

Initially, the film begins with a story about the childhood of a poor, sick boy, whom no one loves, everyone bothers and whose only friend is a blonde girl. And I hoped that the whole drama of this story would be built on this. On the crippled fate of a sick person. But they show us a beautiful fairy tale. A fairy tale about how you can become a hero by simply escaping from the battlefield, well, yes, such shells could not touch our "hero" in any way. A fairy tale that you have to run away from any troubles and so you will be saved. And then everyone asks why our men are so squishy, so look at the movies they watch. A fairy tale that you can just take and become a ping pong champion, a professional running champion. Speaking of running, there's too much of it throughout the movie. It feels like the director wanted to focus on this.

Scream (I) (2022)

Wes Craven has the talent to scare your pants off and proves it with this well done blood letting. The script is refreshing and the story moves along at a pace that keeps you jumping.

The cast is very energetic and interesting. Featured in this crisp chilling tale are Neve Campbell, Courtney Cox, Skeet Ulrich, Drew Barrymore and David Arquette. Give a big round of applause to Roger L. Jackson, the eerie voice on the phone.

This one is a supreme nail bitter.
