Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021) ☆☆(2/4): A couple of losers still stuck together
“Venom: Let There Be Carnage” is a jumbled mess which is alternatively silly and disappointing. While there still is what made “Venom” (2018) work to some degree, the movie frequently falters as hurriedly pushing its story and characters to the … Continue reading

I Saw the Devil (2010) ☆☆☆ (3/4) : It has everything – including a toilet stool
“I Saw the Devil” provides almost everything to shock you and repel you – and I admired it at some degree. The movie acquired its notoriety even before its release in South Korea due to the conflict with Korean Media Rating Board(About 1.5 minutes was cut from the original version in the end).
