Dust Bunny (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): So this little girl hires a hit man…
“Dust Bunny” is a whimsical fantasy adventure film about a young little girl who happens to hire a professional killer for taking care of a monster under her bad. Now this sounds pretty preposterous to you to say the least, … Continue reading
Fight or Flight (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A flight full of killers
“Fight or Flight” is one of those goofy action thriller films which do not take themselves seriously while having some outrageous fun with their utterly silly story premise. Although it is rather deficient in terms of story and character, the … Continue reading
The Old Woman with the Knife (2025) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Old but lethal
South Korean film “The Old Woman with the Knife” looks promising at first but ends up being quite bland and middling to my disappointment. While it is carried to the end by the strong performance from its lead actress at … Continue reading
In a Violent Nature (2024) ☆☆☆(3/4): From a killer’s viewpoint
When I started to become fascinated with movies during the early 1990s, “Friday the 13th” (1980) and its countless sequels naturally drew my attention whenever I spent some time in local video rental shops. Because of my young age, I … Continue reading
Kill Room (2023) ☆☆☆(3/4): A killing art business
I still remember when I looked around the Contemporary Art section of the Art Institute of Chicago in April 2010. Many of those artworks in that section looked pretty valuable as far as I could see, but I often wondered … Continue reading
John Wick: Chapter 4 (2022) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): John Wick Vs. the World (Continued)
“John Wick: Chapter 4” aims for being bigger, faster, and louder with more style, vision, and excitement than its predecessors, and I appreciate and enjoy that a lot. Sure, the movie is mostly all about style and entertainment without much … Continue reading
Halloween Kills (2021) ☆☆(2/4): A pointlessly vicious and bloody sequel
“Halloween Kills”, the sequel to “Halloween” (2018), does kill as much as its very title suggests, and that is all. Still stuck in the same playground as before, the movie only merely follows the footsteps of many other countless slasher … Continue reading
Malignant (2021) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): A nutty outrageous horror thriller film by James Wan
James Wan’s new film “Malignant” is so relentlessly nutty and outrageous that I am still scratching my head on how to evaluate whether it works. While I did get a fair share of laughs and thrills from this rather deranged … Continue reading
Those Who Wish Me Dead (2021) ☆☆☆(3/4): Between fire and killers
Taylor Sheridan’s new film “Those Who Wish Me Dead”, which is released today in South Korean theaters before released in US on next Friday, literally burns slowly at first then blazes toward its expected finale. Although this is basically a … Continue reading
John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum (2019) ☆☆☆(3/4): John Wick Vs. the World
“John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum” is a brutal, intense, and electrifying action film which may numb your nerve ends a lot. While I occasionally cringed at its numerous moments of ruthless and remorseless violence during my viewing, I also … Continue reading
