Doors (2021)
Even better than expected...
My Partner and I were very intrigued throughout this entire movie.
This is a movie that DOES NOT "spell it out" for the audience. I personally prefer movies that keep you guessing, and make one think and wonder about what direction the story is taking you.
This movie has the storyline, and telling of the story. It does so in a way that keeps the viewer engaged and - intrigued (there's that word again) - wondering what is going on, why is it so, and, what will happen next, or what will the consequences be.
This is a very thought-provoking movie, told in separate parts. It can not be compared to many other sci-fi films.
Population Zero (2016)
Impressed BECAUSE it was NOT what was expected...
Unlike most critiques here, I was impressed by this film BECAUSE it fooled or "tricked" me into believing that it was a true documentary. It seems to me today that, people want to be "spoon-fed" about movies. I Love movies that take me by surprise!
Grandma (2015)
Pleasantly surprised and impressed.
I am very impressed by this movie, especially for it's plot and acting among all the actors. The pace of the action never let you grow bored or tired. Well done!
Nordsjøen (2021)
Impressed enough to sit through sub-titles!
This is big for me. I rarely watch an entire movie with English sub-titles. The action, environment, acting, and plot are what kept me hooked. I was very impressed!
Autómata (2014)
Intriguingly creative storyline, special effects.
I always enjoy movies that are not "winners" in the box-office, i.e., not money-makers. I found this movie to be creative, very different, and one which you can not expect the outcomes. It kept my interest, which is a big factor for my enjoyment!
I'll Follow You Down (2013)
Common theme, done with a twist...
I found this movie to use the common theme of time travel, but now with an added twist. It slowly combines reasons for the main character to do what he decides, with surprises to boot. (no spoilers here). Some of the acting could have been a bit more convincing, but, I believe this movie is worthwhile entertainment. It is odd to me that the Canadian title is "I'll Follow You Down"... - down what? That is for the viewer to decide!
Die Another Day (2002)
Very inventive Bond in my view....
I found this Bond film to be very fresh and different in terms of plot, visuals, and "let the bad guy/girl get it". That works for me. Later Bond films have removed all the "fun" elements, and are developing so "Dark" to the point of being too disturbing for my viewing pleasure. I enjoyed this film very much.
Moonfall (2022)
A Very Strange and Delightful Surprise!
My Partner and I watched the Preview. Usually, the trailer shows "the best bits of a movie", to suck you in, and if it a dud, "surprise". Well, I believed it would have a "High Cheese-Factor of 8/10" - my own descriptor for bad B-movies. However, upon viewing, I was so taken by the plot and awesome special effects, I said out loud "you know, this is actually a pretty good movie!" My Partner agreed. Of course, everyone's opinions are subjective.
Horizon Line (2020)
Very Good suspense movie!
This was a very well done suspense movie. You just have to be patient with the beginning 1/5th of the movie, as it's plot is a bit slow (the soap-opera love tie-in). However, the developing story, calamities, and creative filmography start to capture the viewer. I had my heart in my throat at a couple moments. This was an enjoyable surprise to watch!
Exodus (2021)
This movie is exceptional in its creativity.
This movie pushes the limits in storytelling, in a very creative way. The main character is going through a personal process of which he is willing risk everything in his current Life. The reason I can see that many people do not "like" this movie, is because it is challenging them to think and piece together what is going on.
Interstellar (2014)
Absolutey STUNNING Movie, but not many will "Get It"!
This is the most intelligent, head-turning, Dramatic movie I have watched in a long time. It keeps making the viewer think, and ponder, and try to understand what is going on. I had to see it Twice to understand it better. I LOVE movies like this!!!!
Cube Zero (2004)
Fascinating because it makes the viewer THINK.
My review here is just this simple; I like movies that make me think, and force to to draw conclusions as to where the plot is going. My hunch here regarding poor reviews is: (1) this is a Canadian production, (2) this also an Independent production.
