Pipeline
6/10 by slowedown December 28, 2025
This is your basic story of a heist gone wrong. The criminals all have noble reasons for committing the crime but circumstances change. Simple story with a touch of humor. The characters were believable and played off each other well. Seo In Guk was amazing as usual. Lee Soo Hyuk was very good as a villain. Bae Yu Ram was really funny in this and shined in this role. Overall, this was a funny heist movie that turns criminals into heroes that save the day.…

Jurassic World Rebirth
8/10 by kevin2019 December 28, 2025
"Jurassic World: Rebirth" looks absolutely astonishing. The locations are amazing, the photography is luscious throughout, and it is an ideal slice of exhilarating entertainment which is effortlessly diverting. It borrows like crazy from various other films - it actually begins to resemble a 50th anniversary tribute to "Jaws" (1975) at one point (and yes, they definitely do need a bigger boat this time) - and it is only genuinely imaginative when it comes to the dependably excellent action scenes which come thick and fast this time around - so fast, in fact, that you barely have time to draw b…

Woman of the Hour
8/10 by signsoflife December 27, 2025
Tough but commendable choice for a directorial debut, to make a story out of something as complex, layered and non linear as true crime and gendered violence. And to do it so demurely—goes to show that a good film doesn't need to explicitly perpetuate exploitation in order for it to be present and sensed. What else to say but that I liked it... Woman of the Hour didn't strike me as yet another true crime adaptation seeking to conflate performative justice and mass entertainment, to me, this couldn't more clearly –neither on the nose, nor subtle enough to miss– be a critique of what cont…

Anaconda
6/10 by Manuel São Bento December 27, 2025
I headed into this 2025 reimagining of ANACONDA - not a remake! - with a mix of cautious optimism and a heavy dose of nostalgia for the 1997 original. Having followed Tom Gormican's knack for meta-humor, I was curious to see if he could successfully transplant that self-aware energy into a creature feature. What I found was a film that thrives when it leans into its own absurdity, particularly through a movie-within-a-movie satire that mirrors the chaotic, often delusional passion of indie filmmaking. The central dynamic between Paul Rudd and Jack Black is the undeniable heartbeat of the exper…

The Party Animal
3/10 by RottenPop December 27, 2025
Vanity projects are mostly disasters, let’s face it. They can be fun to laugh at but they are usually failures with little point other than to boost up the star. And 1984’s The Party Animal is definitely one of those disasters. It’s a sad, pathetic and often mean-spirited flick romp that is more memorable as a VHS cover on the shelf than anything you would even attempt to entertain yourself with. Yes, this film tries to fancy itself as a comedy but that’s stretching it quite a bit. And the only real character we get is Pondo, played by Matthew Causey. He’s insufferable. Leaving me wondering ho…

F1
6/10 by Brent Marchant December 27, 2025
I could beat around the bush about this one, but I won’t: If you’re looking for innocuous, mindless entertainment lacking in substance and riddled with clichés and implausibilities, all supported by admittedly impressive action-adventure cinematography, then this is the movie for you. Writer-director Joseph Kosinski has yet again created a picture that’s the perfect choice for those times when you just want to kick back, turn your brain off and let your consciousness be nurtured on a mind-numbing visual pacifier for a few hours (although, in this case, those “few hours” may go on a little long…

Avatar: Fire and Ash
by Jason December 27, 2025
I watched this movie last week. The visual effects were stunning, but the storyline was clichéd and didn't break away from the pattern of the second film, so my rating for it is lower than for the first and second films.…

In the Lost Lands
by surferuk December 27, 2025
Reminds me of of the films Priest and legion but only half as good. There seem no suprise element throughout, as if you've seen it all before. A lot of films with Milla Jovovich as the action hero have that in common along with a dystopian element. Its worth a watch at very least. The actors carry the film given the storyline. There was a double headed snake that gained my interest early on, but after that it lacked a purpose bit flat and too somber. (I was hoping it was going to go along the lines of using clever ways to kill enemies with all manner of creatures... but no.) There needed to be…

Seven Pounds
7/10 by CinemaSerf December 27, 2025
We know that “Tim” (Will Smith) was involved in a car accident that saw his fiancée and six others killed. Now, six months later, he quits his well-paid engineering job and determines to do what he can to help make seven people’s lives better. Firstly, he helps his younger brother (“Ben”) with a partial lung transplant, and then he adopts his IRS inspector identity to help out “Emily” (Rosario Dawson) who has got herself $50k in the hole with Uncle Sam. He isn’t cavalier about whom he helps, indeed he goes to quite some effort to select those he wants to assist - and it’s a far from traditiona…
