The Death and Return of Superman - 7/10

Batman: Hush - 7/10

Buffalo '66 (1998)

American crime comedy-drama film. It's really good! I can't tell you why, it just is. It's about a guy who gets released from prison for something we don't know until much later in the film. He wants to go visit his parents who don't know he's been in prison. He tells them about his wife, but he doesn't actually have one. So he kidnaps a dancer and forces her to act as his wife for the visit. Over the course of the movie their relationship deepens. Very slice-of-life. That doesn't sound like much is happening but it is and it's fascinating. Definitely one of the greatest indie movies ever made. Highly recommended!

Mortal Kombat Legends: Battle of the Realms - 6/10

Meander (2020)

French science fiction horror film. Definitely an interesting concept that's worth checking out. Great set design and surprisingly good effects and gore. Very entertaining. Can recommend!

Reminiscence (2021)
7/10
Nice plot and VFX. Too slow.

The Hunter (2011)

Australian drama film. Fascinating story. It's about a hunter who is hired by a military biotech company to go to Tasmania and gather samples of the supposedly extinct Tasmanian tiger and kill the rest so no other biotech company can get their hands on the DNA. He's lodging in the home of a young mother and her two children but the local loggers don't like him very much.That alone sounds super interesting. The hunter is played by Willem Dafoe who's delivering a great performance here. Maybe a bit slow overall but I can recommend it!

The Importance of Being Earnest (1952)

British comedy drama film. Very posh. Interesting story. Good performances by a very good cast. All in all definitely not for everyone, but it's entertaining. And there's a big plot twist at the end. Fun movie!

GoodFellas (1990)

American biographical crime film. Rewatched this one yesterday and it's still a great movie!

Wonder Woman: Bloodlines - 5/10

Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai (1999)

American crime film. Forest Whitaker is playing a mafia hitman who follows the ancient code of the samurai. Very interesting concept. Great performance by Forest Whitaker. It's a Jarmusch movie, so if you don't like his style this might not be for you, but if you do it's a very good movie!

Ben Hur

The original Gladiator movie where betrayal was met with vengeance. A classic and epic tale which remains contemporary with it`s theme of human dynamics of them against us, yet the unifying force of love is always there for those who seek it.

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War - 8/10

Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One - 8/10

The Witch Who Came from the Sea (1976)

American psychological horror film. Well, that was not very good. The effects are pretty bad, even for the time. The acting is okay, but definitly doesn't stand out. And the plot overall is also not very deep. It's a weird movie, the mix of flashbacks and fantasies is kinda surreal. Can't say it was totally bad, because it was still entertaining, but I still can't really recommend it.

Batman: The Long Halloween, Part Two - 7/10

The last of the mohicans (1992) 10/10

Watched it for like the 6th time but i couldnt resist when the soundtrack came to me on youtube

Jolt (2021)
It was okay, could've definitely used more gratuitous violence. I didn't really care for the 'twist', I felt like that ruined the whole point.

That Man from Rio (1964)

French-italian adventure film. To honour the great Jean-Paul Belmondo who sadly passed away yesterday, all my first viewings for the rest of this week will be movies of him. Starting with this one. It feels like a mix between Indiana Jones and Tintin and considering it's heavily influenced by the Tintin adventures (of course just unoffically but if you know you know) and Steven Spielberg reportedly wrote to this movie's director telling him he watched it 9 times, it makes sense. Very entertaining movie, Belmondo maybe didn't shine as much as in some of his other movies but he was still very good in this. Recommended!

The Brain (1969)

French-italian comedy film. Great cast. Jean-Paul Belmondo, Bourvil, David Niven, Eli Wallach and more. Such a fun movie. It's about a criminal mastermind called The Brain (played by David Niven) who wants to steal 7 million dollars of NATO funds that are being transported in a train. And he already has a great plan. But what he doesn't know is that two petty thieves (played by Belmondo and Bourvil) are also planning to steal that money. The movie definitely feels very of its time but the gags are still very funny even today. Highly recommended!

Escape Room: Tournament of Champions - 5/10

The Burglars (1971)

French-italian-american crime film. First of all, what stands out are the great stunts. There's one in particular that's incredibly dangerous (so dangerous that I have no idea who willingly insured the shoot) where Belmondo's character hides on a truck that's carrying rocks and when it unloads them down a huge slope he of course goes with them. He's tumbling and sliding and narrowly misses being hit in the head by huge, heavy rocks more often than you can count. Here's a video of it that someone posted on twitter a few days ago. https://twitter.com/PhilNobileJr/status/1434893437912899593 Watch it, it's crazy knowing someone thought "yeah, let's let our star do that really dangerous stunt". There's a reason Jean-Paul Belmondo is Jackie Chan's favourite stuntman. Apart from the stunt work the movie itself is also entertaining, maybe not the freshest concept, but with a very good cast (Belmondo, Omar Sharif and more) who deliver good performances it's definitely worth the watch.

Superman: Man of Tomorrow - 6/10
