The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966): no funny title

A historic movie. A chilling theme tune. A long and awesome western.

Glass (2019): 3-man army

Watching the movie is exactly like the glass. Fragile until it breaks. Then it is sharp.

Escape Room (2019):aka fail compilation

I do not know what was the ultimate goal of the idea behind such a project but it is not a movie. It is a decent quality Internet video where the planets align and shit take place.

A good effort where the mechanisms of the escape room are very clever. However the execution quality and the problem solving skills of the six strangers swing from “200 IQ” to “dumber than rocks”.

Dark Phoenix (2019): breaking timelines

Having a big legacy and decent expectations to fulfill, with a first thought, the Dark Phoenix exceeds them.

And sooner or later, here comes the catch.

Looper (2012): how to ruin time-travel

Lets get one thing straight. The movie keeps you interested and excited with a well written script. However, I have to admit that subjectively I can neither forget nor forgive the way the movie treats time-travel as a concept.

Project Almanac (2015):teenage fantasy

It is a story of some teenagers who built a time machine and before you and they know it, things escalate pretty quickly. Even before you enter the dizziness of the camera’s footage, you know that these kids will live a teenage fantasy from every perspective.

Our protagonist, David is a very intelligent teenager trying to be accepted by MIT university. So, he develops awesome projects.

Bumblebee (2018): reinstalling Transformers

Hmmm… Rebooting Transformers… I wonder, why would someone do that? I hope you get the sarcasm because this is a spoil… I mean review about Bumblebee.

Let us begin. The war rages in the planet Cybertron.

Robin Hood (2018):an assasin’s creed twist

Hello Robin of Loxley. Where are your parents? Apparently they must be alive to manage your small fort for a house so you care about not seeing marian steeling a horse.

The Departed (2006):living in darkness

Beasts! Just by looking at the cast of the departed you know you are about to see something very very good. Also, breaking the rules!

Fantastic Beasts the Crimes of Grindelwald (2018)

Finally we get to see the home of our friendly caretaker and how he manages to handle all these tiny and huge and sweet and dangerous and not so dangerous fantastic animals. However the main story-line quickly diverges from the theme. Generally it is a story about how Grindewald came into power.
