Naked Singularity (2021) ☆☆(2/4): Tepid Singularity
“Naked Singularity”, which somehow crept into South Korean theaters in last week, is not as singular as whatever it wanted to be. The movie itself is not awful at all, but it is a tedious mess of half-baked ideas which … Continue reading
Babyteeth (2019) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Her imperfect romance
As a coming-of-age comedy drama film revolving around a sick young heroine and her unlikely lover, Australian movie “Babyteeth” is much more matured than expected. While it will surely remind you of other similar films such as “The Fault in … Continue reading

Project Power (2020) ☆☆(2/4): A flat genre piece without much power
Netflix film “Project Power” does not have much power and imagination to boost its supposedly intriguing story premise, and that is a big letdown to say the least. While initially beginning with considerable potentials, the movie eventually gets devolved into … Continue reading
Gringo (2018) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A black gringo in trouble
“Gringo” is supposed to be a wild and crazy crime comedy movie, but it somehow fails to give me enough laugh despite the game efforts from some of its main cast members. While it is not entirely a total dud, … Continue reading
Little Woods (2018) ☆☆☆(3/4): A tale of two desperate sisters
“Little Woods” is a melancholic tale of two women struggling with their increasingly desperate circumstance. While this is essentially your typical American independent film intended as a cold slice of life, the movie is a competent piece of work equipped … Continue reading
The Mule (2018) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): An old horticulturist who becomes a drug runner
Clint Eastwood’s latest film “The Mule” gave me a mixed impression. During its first half, it seems to want to be a low-key crime comedy drama about one unlikely drug runner, and there are several small amusing moments as it … Continue reading
Climax (2018) ☆☆☆(3/4): From jubilant euphoria to hellish nightmare
The works of Gaspar Noé, who debuted with “I Stand Alone” (1998), are definitely not something you can casually watch on Sunday afternoon. I still remember well that infamous rape scene and other equally provocative moments in his second film … Continue reading
Cold Pursuit (2019) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A redundant remake starring Liam Neeson
“Cold Pursuit”, which is the remake version of Norwegian film “In Order of Disappearance” (2014), is fairly watchable but not particularly necessary. Because I happened to watch the original version and then write about it a few days ago, I … Continue reading
Rust Creek (2018) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A fatal detour in the Kentucky woods
Right from the beginning, “Rust Creek” signifies that something bad is going to happen. While everything looks fine and normal for its heroine at first, we can already see that she is heading to a big trouble, and we surely … Continue reading
The Drug King (2018) ☆☆(2/4): The trite rise and fall of a drug lord
South Korean crime drama “The Drug King” bored me without much interest or excitement. While there is nothing particularly new or fresh here in terms of story, characters, and other genre aspects, the movie does not even have enough distinctive … Continue reading
