Good intentions, a solid cast, and some decent battle scenes make 12 STRONG adequate viewing for those that like war films. |

Anderson's new foray into stop-motion territory
|
|
In 2009 Wes Anderson directed the stop-motion film “Fantastic Mr. Fox”, which was met with great commercial success and critical acclaim, earning an Academy Award nomination for best Animated Feature, with some even claiming it deserved to win. Nine years later he’s back at it with an adventure that involves animals and humans, a great deal of his characteristic deadpan humour, and thousands of perfectly symmetrical shots. Visually stunning, charming and with a really big heart, “Isle of Dogs” ... |

| Fahrenheit 451 (2018) |
Rating of: 2/4

I can't fault the acting, as both Michael B. Jordan and Michael Shannon both give outstanding performances. However, in trying to update this classic story for a more modern age, it leaves out a lot that made the novel as important today as it was when it was published. It's a shadow of the novel and while, not bad in of itself, it's not really Fahrenheit 451 at all. Read the book, watch the film - but don't weigh them equally. |

"Solo: A Star Wars Story" by Yojimbo
|
|
A young runaway from a slum planet falls in with a gang of thieves who plan to steal a valuable shipment of fuel in order to buy himself a ship and return for the love he was forced to leave behind.
Despite a rather shaky start, the latest spin off from the Star Wars universe is pretty much exactly what I was expecting; a likeable buddy heist movie with plenty of action, gags and fan-pleasing in-jokes along the way. Alden Ehrenreich is no Harrison Ford but he is okay, although routinely over... |

Hey, you still have the Manifesto?
The what?
The Manifesto, man.
Don’t tell me you threw it away.
“Rebirth” is a psychological thriller of the Netflix collection. I certainly won’t deny that I have become a fervent supporter of the Netflix Originals series. I’ve seen already some great movies (“Spectral“, “iBoy“, “Before I Wake” and “Message from the king“). And also some less successful experiments (“Mute” and “Death note” eg). “Rebirth” is a special case and ends somewhere in the middle... |

History as only Spielberg could tell it: history-free. Aimless and way too long. Only saving graces: it was inoffensive, no gratuitous violence, and Malkovich is so quirky that you keep watching just to see what his character will do next. It was just...weird. |

Metropolis
|
|
Metropolis is much more than just a sci-fi film. Certainly, we are talking about the most astonishing project of a German genius named Fritz Lang, who definitely had the guts of experimenting with something different in order to create cinema. What Fritz Lang offered to the world in 1927 became one of the most ambitious and fascinating cinematographic projects in cinema history, not only because of its thematic elements, but because of its visual style. Basically, Metropolis created a whole new... |
