The Killer Shrews  |
Rating of: 1.5/4

Cult classic monster movie about mutated shrews running amok on a remote island. Acting is hokey and the effects are just dogs in furry costumes. But it's not without its campy charm. |

Its a dull, slow paced movie. An old thief robbes here and there, falls for an old lady and has ,,Robin Hood,, aura, but a hero without real adventure and motivation. He just does it, but we re not in any way obliged to agree, not even to watch this dull pelicula. Another great actor ,,bites the dust,, in a regretable movie. Shame! |

I really wanted to like this film. But, having been too young to "come of age" in the early 90s and too old to appreciate it now, this movie was just not for me.Bridget Fonda's character is annoying and I just could not relate to the characters in this film. However, the soundtrack is killer. |

| Only the Brave (2017) |
Rating of: 3/4

Many movies based on true stories can be tricky to adapt because either the story is made too emotional or too sensational. Only the Brave strikes a good balance between the characters and the story, and is made better by the casting of Miles Teller and Josh Brolin, both who shine. Jennifer Connelly and Jeff Bridges are also great in their supporting roles and you really get a feel for this group - and makes the impact of their sacrifice so much stronger. |

| Christine (1983) |
Rating of: 3/4

"Her name's Christine."
"I like that."
'Christine', like most Carpenter movies is an under-appreciated thrill ride with a twisted sense of humor. Solid performances, excellent score and John Carpenter can any movie stylistic despite the absurd concept.
However, I wish Harry Dean Stanton had more to do. |

Relapse is a part of recovery.
8 Years ago I found myself in a similar hopeless situation. With my back against the wall. Desperately searching for a way out. Knowing that I had to change my way of life drastically. Or else I would be admiring the roots of green grass till eternity real soon. The will to change was there. The courage too. Only I couldn’t do it. And now, after all those years, I’m happy I made the right decision back then. For me, “Beautiful Baby” was a bitter pill to swallow... |

Noah Idea
|
|
What an absolutely diabolical waste of time. The themes Darren Aronofsky wishes to explore here (environmentalism, the morality of the divine mandate, man's nature) are substantial, which makes his utter inability to even begin chewing the massive chunk of biblical text he bit off all the more apparent. The story of Noah does not need to be contorted into a tale of one man's struggle between love of family and love of God. For starters, the story of Abraham and Isaac is literally about that and... |

There is a message hidden in this film and I liked it. I just wished the idea that being a family man (especially for the husbands) was explored more. It was entertaining enough, but to be honest, I don't think it is at par with the current celebrated animations like Big Hero Six, Coco, and many more. |

'Shame on us'

I was familiar with the scientific experiments done with apes such as Nim before seeing this documentary. What I didn't know, though, is the appalling fate of these chimps once their scientific use became irrelevant. 'Project Nim' was a shocker and an eye opener.
Focusing on Nim, a chimp torn away from his mum and raised as a human being (he was taught American Sign Language) so as to test Noam Chomsky's ideas on language and language acquisition (no need to go into controversial linguistic ... |

I loved all the Japan-inspired artwork (especially the still images), but found the dogs less interesting, both visually and in terms of the storyline. In general, I like Wes Anderson better when he tells stories set in the human world, with real actors. |
