Mystery...
9 April 2023
"In the Shadow of the Moon" is an Action - Mystery movie in which we follow a Philadelphia police officer on his mission to track down a mysterious serial killer. This takes years but he is committed to succeed on his mission.

I found this movie very interesting since it contained plenty of action and mystery. In addition to this, there were some plot twists I could not predict, something that made the movie even more interesting. The direction which was made by Jim Mickle was good and the way he presented both the plot and his main character made the difference. The interpretations of Boyd Holbrook who played as Locke and Cleopatra Coleman who played as Rya were very good. All in all, I have to say that "In the Shadow of the Moon" is an interesting mystery movie and I recommend you to give it a try because I am sure you won't regret it.

Amazing...
9 April 2023
"Homestay" is a Drama - Fantasy movie in which we watch a young man waking up in a hospital where some people inform him that he is a spirit who has been given a second chance to life in his body but he has to find out the reason why the previous owner of this body committed suicide.

I liked this movie very much because it had a very clever plot, mystery and much of suspense. During its whole duration it was an emotional roller coaster and the way Parkpoom Wongpoom, who was responsible for the direction, he presented his main character, his family and the plot in general was simply amazing. In addition to this, the interpretation of Teeradon Supapunpinyo who played as Min was very good. To sum up, I have to say that "Homestay" is a nice movie and I recommend everyone to watch it.

Great plot...
7 April 2023
"Searching" is a Drama - Mystery movie in which we watch a father trying to find his daughter after she was mysteriously disappeared. He finds some information and some secrets on her laptop but still has to learn more about them.

I liked this movie very much because it had a nice and very interesting plot that contained plenty of mystery, suspense and some plot twists that I did not predict. The direction which was made by Aneesh Chaganty was very good and he succeeded on presenting his main character very well, something that made the audience feel what he's been through and follow him along his journey and searching. In addition to this, the interpretation of John Cho who played as David Kim was simply amazing and very different than what we used to see him. To sum up, I have to say that "Searching" is an amazing movie and I strongly recommend everyone to watch it.

Teen Wolf Too (1987)
3/10
Not good...
7 April 2023
"Teen Wolf Too" is a Comedy - Fantasy movie and the sequel of "Teen Wolf", in which we watch Scott Howard's cousin, Todd going to college where he turns into a werewolf and things get more complicated for him.

Since I had already watched and enjoyed the first movie, I have to admit that I had high expectations from this movie. Unfortunately, I was disappointed by it and I have to say after watching it that I would not recommend it since it was a waste of time. It had a great potential but failed to succeed mainly because it was not as good as the first one. In conclusion, I have also to say that "Teen Wolf Too" is not a great movie and I believe there was not any reason of creating this movie.

I enjoyed this movie because it was funny and it had a simple but still interesting plot. There were plenty of hilarious scenes and a lot of humor. The interpretation of Michael J.

Some other interpretations that have to be mentioned were Jerry Levine's who played as Stiles, Susan Ursitti's who played as Boof and James Hampton's who played as Harold Howard. Lastly, I have to say that "Teen Wolf" is a classic 80's movie and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

"The Secret Garden" is a Drama - Fantasy movie in which we watch a 10 year old girl is sent to live in Misselthwaite Manor in Yorkshire with her uncle. There she finds out that her new house has some secrets and she needs to search more in order to reveal them.

I liked this movie because it had a nice, beautiful and heartwarming plot and combined very well fantasy with drama. In addition to this, the direction which was made by Marc Munden was good and his beautiful work was obvious through the whole duration of the film. The interpretations of Dixie Egerickx who played as Mary, Edan Hayhurst who played as Colin and Colin Firth who played as Archibald Craven were also good.

Not as good as the first...
5 April 2023
"Kaiji: Final Game" is an Adventure movie and the third movie of the "Kaiji: The Ultimate Gambler" frnachise, in which we watch Kaiji participating on four different and very dangerous games Babel no Tou, Saigo no Shinpan, Dream Jump and Gold Janken.

When I watched this movie I had already watched the two previous movies of the franchise so, I knew what I was about to watch. I had also some expectations from this movie because I was a bit disappointed by the second movie. The plot was mostly the same with the previous two movies so, there was not anything new or anything that the audience could not predict if they have already watched the previous movies. The direction which was made for one more time by Tôya Satô followed the same steps with second movie and it was a bit more boring. To sum up, I have to say that "Kaiji: Final Game" is an entertaining movie but it has many differences with the first movie that I personally consider it the best of this franchise.

Average evolution...
5 April 2023
"Kaiji 2: The Ultimate Gambler" is a Drama movie and the sequel of the "Kaiji: The Ultimate Gambler" franchise, in which we watch Kaiji being one more time in debt one year after the events of the first movie. Another chance to wipe away his new debt comes in front of him and for one more time he has to take that risk.

Since I had already watched the first movie I had some expectations from its sequel but I believe it did not reach its potential and it isn't as good as the first one. The plot contained some interesting twists and unpredictable moments but they were not enough to make it a great movie as the first one. The direction which was made by Tôya Satô who was the director of the first movie was good and he tried to maintain the interest of the audience following his successful steps of the first movie. Unfortunately, he did not succeed mainly because most of the people would have already watched the first movie so, they knew what to expect. To sum up, I have to say that "Kaiji 2: The Ultimate Gambler" is not a bad movie, it isn't just as good as the first but still worth watching.

In addition to this, the interpretation of Tatsuya Fujiwara who played as Kaiji Ito was very good and he made the difference. All in all, I have to say that "Kaiji: The Ultimate Gambler" is a great start of a trilogy and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

Twist (2021)
4/10
Below average...
4 April 2023
"Twist" is a Crime - Drama movie in which we watch a modern version of the classic tale of Oliver Twist. There are many changes from the original version of it since it takes place in present day.

I have to admit that I had some expectations from this movie especially because of Michael Caine but I was disappointed by it. I already knew most of the plot but there were some unpredictable surprises that made the movie more interesting. In addition to this, some plot twists were a nice touch and something that made the difference. The interpretations of Michael Caine who played as Fagin, Lena Headey who played as Sikes, Rafferty Law who played as Twist and Rita Ora who played as Dodge were good but not so good in order to save this movie. In conclusion, I have to say that "Twist" is an average drama movie and I advise you to reconsider whether you really want or not to watch it.

I liked this movie because it had a nice and interesting plot. It contained a lot of mystery and suspense, something that made it even more interesting.

Lastly, I have to say that "The Night Clerk" is a nice movie and I recommend you to watch it.

"The Social Dilemma" is a Documentary in which we watch how social networking affects people, their everyday activities and their lives in general. This dangerous impact of social networks change the way people think and act and tech experts explain more about social networking and its activity.

I found this documentary very interesting and I believe that everyone needs to watch it in order to be informed about social networking. Nowadays more and more people use social media and smartphones on their everyday lives so, I believe it's very important for everyone to be informed from a serious source, from people that actually worked on high tech companies and know better than anyone the truth behind it. In conclusion, I have to say that "The Social Dilemma" is a very interesting documentary and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

Suspense and action...
2 April 2023
"The Take" is an Action - Drama movie in which we watch a pickpocket cooperating with a CIA agent in order to find out more information and stop a terrorist mission in France.

Since I did not have any expectation from this movie I was not disappointed by it. It's another action movie with plenty of suspense and overall interesting enough to spend your time with. It isn't something extraordinary or something you have not watched before but still worth watching it. The interpretations of both Idris Elba who played as Sean Briar and Richard Madden who played as Michael Mason were good and their combination worked just fine. Lastly, I have to say that "The Take" is a simple action movie but still better than a lot of others so, it's worth your time.

Boring...
2 April 2023
"Settlers" is a Thriller - Sci-Fi movie in which we watch a group of settlers on Mars trying to survive while they have to deal and try to cooperate with each other, something that is more difficult than it sounds.

I have to admit that I had some expectations from this movie because it has to do with a very popular subject. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed by it because it lucked of suspense, information and its plot was boring and it created some plot holes that were never explained. The direction which was made by Wyatt Rockefeller who is also the writer was not good and he did not reach the highest potential possible. To sum up, I have to say that "Settlers" is a slow, boring sci-fi movie with not much to add and I advise you to reconsider before watching it.

"Silverton Siege" is an Action - Drama movie which is based on the real life siege that took place in Silverton, Pretoria in 1980. Three young freedom fighters taking over a bank and its customers hostages demanding the release of Nelson Mandela.

I found this movie very interesting and the fact that it's based on real events made it even more interesting. Mandla Dube on the direction of this movie made the difference and he succeeded on presenting very well the events of Silverton Siege while he also presented the politics behind that. The interpretations of Thabo Rametsi who played as Calvin Khumalo, Noxolo Dlamini who played as Mbali Terra Mabunda and Stefan Erasmus who played as Aldo Erasmus were very good and they also made the difference on this movie. Finally, I have to say that "Silverton Siege" is an interesting movie and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

1 April 2023
"OtherLife" is a Drama - Mystery movie in which we watch a young woman trying find a way of better using her part of a drug that induces time-compressed virtual realities. She has her own reasons to succeed on this but she has to hurry.

I liked this movie despite its simple plot. It contained some decent action scenes that made it interesting but it lucked of main context on its plot. The direction which was made by Ben C. Lucas was also simple and he tried to present an interesting topic but I believe he did not succeed despite the high potential of his movie. The interpretation of Jessica De Gouw who played as Ren Amari was good but also not enough to save this movie. Lastly, I have to say that "OtherLife" is another mystery movie that is combined sci-fi and could not reach its potential.
