Project Hail Mary (2026) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Now it’s up to him – and his alien friend
“Project Hail Mary” is an entertaining science fiction packed with enough wit, style, and drama to engage us during its rather long running time (156 minutes). While it is not as ambitious as Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar” (2014), it still works … Continue reading

Spaceman (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Sandler and a Spider
I admire how Adam Sandler has developed his potential as a performer during last three decades. While his entire career has been riddled with a heap of disposable comedy films such as “The Waterboy” (1998) and “Jack and Jill” (2011), … Continue reading

A Million Miles Away (2023) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A migrant farmworker who became a NASA astronaut
“A Million Miles Away”, which was released on Amazon Prime in this week, is a rather tame presentation of one inspiring real-life story which deserves better in my inconsequential opinion. While the story itself is fascinating enough to hold my … Continue reading

Netflix film “Stowaway”, which was released on last Thursday, attempts to do pretty familiar stuffs in the middle of the space. While it works to some degree thanks to its competent direction and the solid performances from its few main … Continue reading

Sputnik (2020) ☆☆☆(3/4): Beauty and the Host
Russian film “Sputnik” is a little creepy SF horror flick which intrigues and then chills you as patiently developing the story and characters within its limited background. Evoking many various movies ranging from “The Manchurian Candidate” (1962) to “Venom” (2018), … Continue reading
Ad Astra (2019) ☆☆☆(3/4) : To the stars (and his father)
James Gray’s latest work “Ad Astra” is a slow, introspective science fiction drama austerely revolving around father and son issues from the beginning to the end. Although you may be quite disappointed if you expect something like “Gravity” (2013) or … Continue reading
