It (I) (2017)
7/10
Nice horror thriller
5 February 2020
Nice horror thriller. However it follows this linear line that only goes in the direction of the movie, in order for the next step to happen... Obviously, any real kid would run away at the first sight of the clown!

The Road (I) (2009)
6/10
Entertaining post-apocalyptic story
5 February 2020
Entertaining post-apocalyptic movie. But I find it hard to make this subject interesting in a 2h movies compared to "The Walking Dead" (the TV show is great but I follow the books which are amazing). The latter goes much farer after the disaster, how to re-organize everything... A multi-episode serie model allows to spend much more time on the psychological aspect on different characters, how to form groups, how to survive...

Why Him? (2016)
6/10
A good entertainment
5 February 2020
A good and entertaining U.S. comedy. It is funny and it often stays on the right side of the line between funny and stupid. Just another random comedy though...

My Sassy Girl (2001)
9/10
A must-see lovely romance
5 February 2020
A lovely romantic story that we wish it never ends. The movie is funny, joyful, sad... We have time to go deep into the personalities of the 2 main characters. A must-see!

A good sci-fi Korean entertainment. A pleasure to see Tae-Hyun Cha almost 20 years after the great romance "My Sassy Girl".

You (2018–2024)
9/10
Very nice
6 January 2020
Great production from Netflix, very entertaining psychological thriller.

Compared to many (many!) of their production, it's not slow. But slow enough to spend time to develop the personality of the characters.

Season 1 and 2 fit well and are not redundant. People who liked Dexter should enjoy You.

Extinction (2018)
4/10
So so...
31 July 2018
This is my first movie from Netflix, I wanted to get my own idea of their production for a movie.

The visual quality is ok. The main idea of the scenario could actually be interesting, especially once we understand the turnaround...

But actors are way too slow and boring ! Action scenes are unexciting and the scenario lacks of thinking.

Ok, it doesn't worth 0 or 1 or 9... but there is still a huge gap with a production from Hollywood.

In few words... Entertaining !
24 March 2018
While in Jumanji 1, the virtual jungle was released in the real world, here players are sent in a real jungle as fictional characters.

It's important to watch this Jumanji 2 without expecting something necessarily better than the first one, which had a big impact and is still great in our memories.

Although some scenes are silly, some others are very funny. The scenario is random but it's a nice and entertaining movie.

In few words... Entertaining but not really exciting
17 March 2018
Nice scenario, about spying and relationship between South and North Korea. Not a spy movie though, human-oriented instead.

Not really exciting compared to other South Korean masterpieces. But entertaining and appealing.

Thelma (2017)
4/10
Worth seeing but...
15 March 2018
Strange phenomena appear while a teenager discover new feelings...

Eili Harboe acts well and some suspens or scenes are efficient... But a bit disappointed about the supernatural movie that I expected. Movie is also slow, too slow, and the supernatural effect not present enough. If that's about parents / teenager relationship or, teenager love story, I would go for other movies.

Stronger (I) (2017)

Based on a true story, so it's hard to obtain a scenario with originality. I guess there are better movies to understand how to build a new life after being newly and severely handicapped.

The move is just ok. But the same as those where patriotism is prominent and the U.S. need a hero.

Nice action movie, not the usual martial art action movie from Jacky Chan, but he's performing well, darker character than usual.

Scenario is classic though.

Baseline: In the 60s in Hong Kong, 2 couples move in the same day into adjacent apartments. What links are they going to create ?

A wonderful romance, with magnicient visual, dresses and music. A masterpiece.

Baseline: a young scum/riffraff becomes a secret agent...

Great action movie, violent but yet hilarious. Original, and new faces on screen make it a very nice movie.

Baseline: Irish people attack London. Jacky Chan is in the way.

Random and classic storyline, but good action movie, had a good time. Jacky Chan appears here in a darker character...
