F1 (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): Driving fairly well along a familiar course
“F1” drives fairly well along a familiar course, and I enjoyed that to some degree. Although predictably following numerous genre conventions and clichés, the movie gives us a series of top-notch car racing sequences definitely worthwhile to watch on big … Continue reading
Predator: Killer of Killers (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): Three Predator tales
Animation feature film “Predator: Killer of Killers”, which was released on Disney+ early in this month, tries an interesting variation on what we have seen from “Predator” (1987) and several films from its franchise. This time, we get three different … 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
Novocaine (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Numb and painless, shall we say
“Novocaine” is a one-joke comedy action film which goes too long and violent in my humble opinion. While it generates some funny moments from its exaggerated comic story premise, the movie is also often blatantly violent as its hero endures … Continue reading
Thunderbolts* (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): A bunch of losers
“Thunderbolts*”, the latest product from Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), attempts to bring more fun and excitement to its franchise, and that succeeds to some degree. While this is basically a very familiar mix between “The Avengers” (2012) and “Suicide Squad” … Continue reading
Havoc (2025) ☆☆(2/4): Merely bloody and violent
Gareth Evans’ latest film “Havoc”, which was released on Netflix yesterday, is merely bloody and violent without bringing anything new to its familiar genre territory. If you simply want a lot of extremely brutal action and mayhem, the movie will … Continue reading
