- DirectorNeill BlomkampStarsSharlto CopleyDev PatelHugh JackmanIn the near future, crime is patrolled by a mechanized police force. When one police droid, Chappie, is stolen and given new programming, he becomes the first robot with the ability to think and feel for himself.Fun action flick. Not to be taken too seriously. Some good moments.
3/5 - DirectorYoon Jong-binStarsChoi Min-sikHa Jung-wooCho Jin-woongOn the verge of being fired, a corrupt customs official finds a haul of drugs and teams up with a vicious gangster to become the most powerful crime partnership in Busan.Superior Korean gangster movie with strong Scorcese's influences. Impressive direction (by a 32 y.o) and gorgeous lighting.
4/5 - DirectorJames MangoldStarsJohn CusackRay LiottaAmanda PeetStranded at a desolate Nevada motel during a nasty rain storm, ten strangers become acquainted with each other when they realize that they're being killed off one by one.Great cast. Entertaining throughout. Hard to take the last twist seriously.
3/5 - DirectorDavid MichôdStarsGuy PearceRobert PattinsonScoot McNairy10 years after a global economic collapse, a hardened loner pursues the men who stole his only possession, his car. Along the way, he captures one of the thieves' brother, and the duo form an uneasy bond during the dangerous journey.Pearce great beardedbadassmode.
3/5 - DirectorMichael SpierigPeter SpierigStarsEthan HawkeSarah SnookNoah TaylorAs his last assignment, a temporal agent is tasked to travel back in time and prevent a bomb attack in New York in 1975. The hunt, however, turns out to be beyond the bounds of possibility.Great contender for greatest time travel mindf#ck
3.5/5 - DirectorJemaine ClementTaika WaititiStarsJemaine ClementTaika WaititiCori Gonzalez-MacuerViago, Deacon, and Vladislav are vampires who are struggling with the mundane aspects of modern life, like paying rent, keeping up with the chore wheel, trying to get into nightclubs, and overcoming flatmate conflicts.Low budget comedy with an original take on vampires. Some good moments and good actors but story is a bit lacking.
3.5/10 - DirectorAndrew NiccolStarsEthan HawkeJanuary JonesZoë KravitzA family man begins to question the ethics of his job as a drone pilot.Practically not released in US theaters as apparently people don't really want to be confronted with what is done in their name on a daily basis and would rather leave it shrouded in secracy. Very factual but not really balanced. The movie's stand against the war on terror is at time a little too heavy handed although some pro arguments are exposed as well. Good actors and actresses but flat secondary caracters. Very good production values.
4/5 - DirectorSteven KnightStarsTom HardyOlivia ColmanRuth WilsonIvan Locke, a dedicated family man and successful construction manager, receives a phone call on the eve of the biggest challenge of his career that sets in motion a series of events that threaten his carefully cultivated existence.Very original script for this interesting movie that kept me on my toes until the end. Hardy comes correct.
4/5 - DirectorRichard KellyStarsDwayne JohnsonSarah Michelle GellarSeann William ScottDuring a three-day heat wave just before a huge 4th of July celebration, an action star stricken with amnesia meets up with a porn star who is developing her own reality TV project, and a policeman who holds the key to a vast conspiracy.Confusing. A few good moments.
3/5 - DirectorDavid AyerStarsBrad PittShia LaBeoufLogan LermanA grizzled tank commander makes tough decisions as he and his crew fight their way across Germany in April, 1945.Gritty 'realistic' war film. Good except for the over the top, almost ridiculous finale.
3.5/5 - DirectorDavid Robert MitchellStarsMaika MonroeKeir GilchristOlivia LuccardiA young woman is followed by an unknown supernatural force after a sexual encounter.Nice atmosphere but weak story
3/5 - DirectorRidley ScottStarsMatt DamonJessica ChastainKristen WiigAn astronaut becomes stranded on Mars after his team assume him dead, and must rely on his ingenuity to find a way to signal to Earth that he is alive and can survive until a potential rescue.Hard SF with a strong emphasis on making science cool.
3/5 - DirectorChristopher McQuarrieStarsTom CruiseRebecca FergusonJeremy RennerEthan and his team take on their most impossible mission yet when they have to eradicate an international rogue organization as highly skilled as they are and committed to destroying the IMF.Crazy bad plot, average direction
3/5 - DirectorJ.J. AbramsStarsDaisy RidleyJohn BoyegaOscar IsaacAs a new threat to the galaxy rises, Rey, a desert scavenger, and Finn, an ex-stormtrooper, must join Han Solo and Chewbacca to search for the one hope of restoring peace.A colossal copy paste meh
3/5 - DirectorAlfred HitchcockStarsRay MillandGrace KellyRobert CummingsA former tennis star arranges the murder of his adulterous wife.Very nice
4/5 - DirectorPeyton ReedStarsPaul RuddMichael DouglasCorey StollArmed with a super-suit with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, cat burglar Scott Lang must embrace his inner hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, pull off a plan that will save the world.Some cool parts but too formulatic (ex super good thief with a heart of gold turns bad so he can see his daughter again; bad guy want to take over the world).
3/5 - DirectorNoah BaumbachStarsGreta GerwigLola KirkeShana DowdeswellA lonely college freshman's life is turned upside-down by her impetuous, adventurous stepsister-to-be.Fresh, energetic NYC literature student movie with some interesting ideas. Very refreshing to see a contemporary movie taking place in NYC without any cops or threat of danger at any point.
4/5 - DirectorMike CahillStarsMichael PittSteven YeunAstrid Bergès-FrisbeyA molecular biologist and his laboratory partner uncover evidence that may fundamentally change society as we know it.Love story, evolutionary science, molecular science, reincarnation, 11 everywhere. Science vs. Spirituality. Not very deep on any subject. PhD student = bow tie. Flawed but very original movie in themes and in their treatments.
3.5/5 - DirectorDavid DobkinStarsRobert Downey Jr.Robert DuvallVera FarmigaBig-city lawyer Hank Palmer returns to his childhood home where his father, the town's judge, is suspected of murder. Hank sets out to discover the truth; along the way he reconnects with his estranged family.Courtroom/family drama, ok but bit too long and generic
3/5 - DirectorFrank DarabontStarsThomas JaneMarcia Gay HardenLaurie HoldenA freak storm unleashes a species of bloodthirsty creatures on a small town, where a small band of citizens hole up in a supermarket and fight for their lives.Not deep enough, half-ass ending.
3/5 - DirectorGuy RitchieStarsHenry CavillArmie HammerAlicia VikanderIn the early 1960s, CIA agent Napoleon Solo and KGB operative Illya Kuryakin participate in a joint mission against a mysterious criminal organization, which is working to proliferate nuclear weapons.Superior production values for a very paint by number plot and caracters
3.5/5 - DirectorDenis VilleneuveStarsEmily BluntJosh BrolinBenicio Del ToroAn idealistic FBI agent is enlisted by a government task force to aid in the escalating war against drugs at the border area between the U.S. and Mexico.The most overdramatic take yet on the war on drugs at the US/Mexico border. Epic sinister music when showing an aerial shot of the anti-migrant wall build by the US gov. Suarez in 2014=Fallujah in 2002
3/5 - DirectorWes AndersonStarsRalph FiennesF. Murray AbrahamMathieu AmalricA writer encounters the owner of an aging high-class hotel, who tells him of his early years serving as a lobby boy in the hotel's glorious years under an exceptional concierge.good 4/5
- DirectorLouis LeterrierStarsJesse EisenbergCommonMark RuffaloAn FBI agent and an Interpol detective track a team of illusionists who pull off bank heists during their performances, and reward their audiences with the money.average dialogue, super fast pace, overproduced with huge plot holes but still fun and intersting througout.
3.5/5
