Child’s Play (2019) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): He’s a very bad doll…
“Child’s Play”, the remake of the 1988 horror film of the same name, is a nasty genre piece packed with scares and gores. I was only mildly amused and entertained during my viewing, and that made me keep wondering whether … Continue reading
Aniara (2018) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Space voyage of the Damned
Swedish SF film “Aniara” is akin to watching a slow but inexorable progress toward utter despair and sheer hopelessness. Although it is often too clinical for us to care about what is going on in the story, the movie works … Continue reading
I Am Mother (2019) ☆☆☆(3/4): A slow but tense SF thriller on AI and motherhood

Chinese film “The Wandering Earth” is a goofy but ambitious SF movie which deserves some kudos for trying to reach to the level of your typical Hollywood blockbuster SF film. Although it is sometimes a little too cheesy and corny … Continue reading
Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): Clash of the Monsters
Watching “Godzilla: King of the Monsters” is akin to going to a smorgasbord full of goodies to be devoured. Willingly going all the way for excessive visual moments of monstrous grandeur, the movie seldom bores its target audiences during its … Continue reading
See You Yesterday (2019) ☆☆☆(3/4): A little time travel adventure in Brooklyn
“See You Yesterday”, which was released on Netflix last Friday, is a little smart movie which puts its own distinctive touches on one of the most time-honored science fiction subjects. While it takes a familiar route packed with predictable narrative … Continue reading
