Eternity (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): A choice for eternity
“Eternity” is alternatively amusing and touching as a human comedy about afterlife, eternity, and love. While surely reminiscent of several other movies ranging from Albert Brooks’ “Defending Your Life” (1991) to Hirokazu Kore-eda’s “After Life” (1998), the movie distinguishes itself … Continue reading
Us and Them (2018) ☆☆☆(3/4): Now and Then
Taiwanese filmmaker Rene Liu’s 2018 film “Us and Them”, which is currently available on Netflix, is a bittersweet romance drama between two different people looking back on their flawed but precious love in the past. At first, their past seems … Continue reading
The Housemaid (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): Her tricky employment
“The Housemaid”, which was one of the two films from Paul Feig during last year, is a slick genre film packed with enough pulpy fun to compensate for a few glaring narrative hiccups. As your average seasoned moviegoer, I instantly … Continue reading
The Wrecking Crew (2026) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A generic buddy cop action flick with some Hawaiian flavor
“The Wrecking Crew”, which was released on Amazon Prime in last week, is a generic buddy cop action flick spiced with some local flavor. While it has some personality besides being supported well by its two seasoned lead performers, the … Continue reading
The Lovers on the Bridge (1991) ☆☆☆(3/4): A shabby but bold tale of romance
Leo Carax’s 1991 film “The Lovers on the Bridge”, whose recent 4K restoration version happened to be released in selected South Korean theaters a few days ago, is a seemingly shabby but undeniably brash tale of romance. While simply rolling … Continue reading
The Chronology of Water (2025) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): The remarkable debut work by Kristen Stewart
As many of you know well, Kristen Stewart has proven a lot of her undeniable talent during last two decades. Sure, she has often been remembered for those commercially successful but utterly disposable Twilight flicks, but her acting career subsequently … Continue reading
Primate (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Menaced by a mad chimpanzee (no kidding)
“Primate” is your typical mad killer movie with a rather amusing twist on its story premise. This time, we get a murderously raging ape at the center of the story, and the movie surely has a lot of vicious but … Continue reading
Send Help (2026) ☆☆☆(3/4): The Taming of the Boss
Sam Raimi’s latest film “Send Help” is a little naughty genre film you can exactly expect from its director. While you can clearly see how the story will end in one way or another, the movie has some vicious fun … Continue reading
Another Simple Favor (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A less charming sequel
“Another Simple Favor”, which was released on Amazon Prime several months ago, mildly dissatisfied me. While it is still fun to watch its two engaging lead actresses pushing and pulling each other from the beginning to the end, the movie … Continue reading
Death of a Unicorn (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): They have an accident… with a unicorn
“Death of a Unicorn” begins with an utterly outrageous story premise which will instantly draw your attention: what if a certain mythical creature actually exist? I was a bit disappointed to see that the overall result is rather uneven and … Continue reading
