Lost Bullet (2020) ☆☆(2/4): A warm-up before the next sequels
French Netflix film “Lost Bullet” is so typical and predictable in many aspects that you can easily guess everything even before watching it. First, we have a criminal hero who is pretty good in his profession, and you surely know … Continue reading
Final Destination Bloodlines (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): It runs in the family…
“Final Destination Bloodlines”, the latest sequel of the Final Destination series, is actually better than expected. Just like its several predecessors including “Final Destination” (2000), the movie surely and firmly sticks to its diabolical rule on how to eliminate its … Continue reading
Lilo & Stitch (2002) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Her alien pet
I somehow missed a chance to watch Disney animation feature film “Lilo & Stitch” when it came out in 2002, and now I deeply regret that after finally watching it at last night. While it looks rather modest in terms … Continue reading
Final Destination (2000) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Destined to die horribly
To be frank with you, I have somehow avoided watching “Final Destination” and its several sequels during last 25 years. Even when the movie came out in 2000, the movie did not interest me much because it looked like another … Continue reading

What Does That Nature Say to You (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): With her girlfriend’s family
Hong Sang-soo’s new film “What Does That Nature Say to You” has usual stuffs we can expect from him, but it somehow did not engage me much on the whole. While it gets some laugh from how petty its hero … Continue reading
Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): It delivers ponderously
“Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning”, which is a direct follow-up to “Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One” (2023), does not disappoint you in case of action despite being weaker than its recent predecessors. Yes, again, it will thrill … Continue reading
Idiot Girls and School Ghost: School Anniversary (2024) ☆☆☆(3/4): A cheerful (and spooky) high school horror comedy film
I could not help but get tickled more than once while watching South Korean film “Idiot Girls and School Ghost: School Anniversary”, which is as ridiculously funny as its rather long title suggests. Clearly influenced by not only “Whispering Corridors” … Continue reading
Stars in the Ordinary Universe (2023) ☆☆(2/4): Three plain acts
South Korean film “Stars in the Ordinary Universe” attempts to be absurd and funny, but the result is mediocre and middling in my humble opinion. Consisting of three individual acts connected with each other to some degree, the movie reaches … Continue reading
Helpless (2023) ☆1/2(1.5/4): Those pathetic YouTubers
As far as I have learned from many various comedy films, anything can be used for good laughs, and that is why I do not mind comedies delving into unpleasant subjects at all. However, South Korean film “Helpless” is merely … Continue reading
Can We Get Married? (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Between his family and his girlfriend
South Korean film “Can We Get Married?” starts as a comedy and then becomes something more serious and painful. Although I am not so sure about whether its mix between broad comedy and sentimental drama works as well as intended, … Continue reading
