  • Alien: Romulus (2024) The first 30 minutes were passable, but far from the greatness I had been led to expect. The setup felt disjointed, and the kids-who looked far too clean and polished-seemed completely out of place for a supposed mining colo…

  • I am super excited for NOSFERATU! Alo Heretic looks promising
  • I haven’t seen the original TV show, but I’ve watched all the films up to the latest one. I absolutely loved the first movie, especially with Jon Voight as the villain. It had that distinct ‘90s vibe, with great cinematography and a wonderfully eeri…

  • The Substance (2024) The film's opening scene was incredibly effective-it gave me all the information I needed without explicitly saying much. It begins with a shot of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, zoomed in on the protagonist's star. We see …
  • @peter @ToTheRight @Dwayne thank you :)
  • Willem Dafoe absolutely needs to play a villain in a Bond film. He’s proven time and again that he can deliver a brilliantly unhinged, menacing performance—let’s just ignore Speed 2 for a moment, though! Another perfect candidate is Hugo Weaving. He…
  • After my most recent viewing in 2024, I know this take is going to upset some fans, but here it goes... * Goldfinger (1964) * GoldenEye (1995) * Casino Royale (2006) * Skyfall (2012) * From Russia with Love (1963) * Licence to Kill (1989) …

  • Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft (2024) I've been eagerly waiting for a new Lara Croft adventure for what feels like ages. Having played every Tomb Raider game since Angel of Darkness right up to the latest trilogy, I can confidently say I…
  • One of the top contenders for me is Denis Villeneuve. His films are not only visually stunning but also deeply engaging. Blade Runner 2049, Arrival, and Prisoners are perfect examples of his ability to blend rich storytelling with breathtaking cinem…
  • From my IMDb account: "Licence to Kill: A Dark and Daring Bond "Licence to Kill" stands as one of the finest James Bond films, and my opinion on this is unwavering. Timothy Dalton excels as James Bond, presenting a darker, more nuanced por…
  • From my IMDb account: Dalton's Brilliance Undermined Timothy Dalton's debut as Bond is a masterclass in acting, but unfortunately, he was hampered by the overrated and subpar direction of John Glen, who marred his initial appearance. "The Li…
  • From my IMDb account: A Convoluted Swan Roger Moore's age is notably apparent in this film, and unfortunately, plastic surgery exacerbated his appearance, giving him bulging eyes and pronounced jawlines. It's a shame, as he looked much bette…
  • From my IMDb: Clownish Escapades and Missed Opportunities The absurdity of this film reaches its peak with a Tarzan yell. "That should keep you in curry for a while"? Really? Commanding a tiger to sit? And why are the troops guarding Bond wear…
  • I’ve loved every Indiana Jones film, and the harsh criticism directed at the latest installment feels completely unfair and frustrating. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny delivered an exhilarating experience with its thrilling action sequence…
  • I recently watched: V/H/S/Beyond I've been obsessed with the V/H/S franchise since its debut in 2012. From the moment I watched the first film, I was hooked. For those unfamiliar with the series, it's essentially a collection of horror and sc…
  • I've had so many stories in my mind for the next bond film! In the cold shadow of a crumbling global alliance, James Bond is dispatched on a mission like none before—he must eliminate a former MI6 agent turned traitor. This agent was Bond's clo…
  • I used to have a cat, but I had to give him up for adoption when I traveled abroad. I lived in Istanbul for seven years, where the streets were filled with cats. I often played with them whenever I had the chance. This photo captures one of those mo…

  • Watched Trap today, it was a wildly absurd ride from start to finish-think Hitchcock with a dash of madness. The plot is utterly bonkers, but that doesn't stop it from being fun. M. Night Shyamalan leans into his signature style, delivering a psycho…
  • I watched Longlegs last night, it is an okay horror film, though it doesn't quite live up to the hype generated by its marketing. Some reviews suggest it's the pinnacle of the genre, but it falls short of being exceptional. On the positive side, …
