The Witches (2020) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A bland and redundant adaptation
Many of Roald Dahl’s stories for children have certain dark and vicious qualities, and “The Witches” is no exception. Although it did not scare me much when I happened to read it around 1993, its twisted sense of humor often … Continue reading
Enola Holmes (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): Her game is afoot indeed

The Man Who Killed Don Quixote (2018) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): You finally made it, Mr. Gilliam
First, let me tell you a bit about my admiration on how tenacious Terry Gilliam has been during last two decades. Although his prime period mainly represented by “Brazil” (1985) and “12 Monkeys” (1995) had already passed many years ago, … Continue reading
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (2018) ☆☆(2/4): No wonder this time
“Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” promises a lot but does not deliver much in the end. So occupied with introducing new characters and establishing the ground for the next film of its franchise, the movie often lags and trudges … Continue reading
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World (2019) ☆☆☆(3/4): Their final adventure
