First Ice Age released in 2002 is one of my favorite animated movies and alongside with its sequel Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006) and only two movies from this franchise I actually enjoy. Ice Age is still a very good animated movie, three well defined and characterized characters, interesting premise, combination of emotional scenes with... Continue Reading →

After the successful mystery series Wayward Pines (2015-2016), M. Night Shyamalan has now ventured into another series; this time with the support of Tony Basgallop (Hotel Babylon (2006-2009); Berlin Station (2017)) and Apple.

There are many articles written about John Wick movies that concentrate on the world-building of these three movies and more upcoming spin-offs, sequels and even a TV show. John Wick is revolutionary in many ways and yet it pays a homage to previous cinematic works (Asian action cinema, westerns and black-and-white movies). The John Wick... Continue Reading →

Which two movies am I talking about? Surprisingly Alien vs Predator (2004) and its darker sequel Aliens vs Predator: Requiem (2007). Why these two? Let... Continue Reading →

A similar problem exists for sequels, prequels and spin-offs. The difference is that sequels, prequels and spin-offs are more welcome than remakes and reboots. There is... Continue Reading →

The best scene is John's final breakdown in tears and I wont even try... Continue Reading →

It (or It: Chapter One) was one of the most surprising movies of 2017, I honestly didn’t expect it to be as good as it was and that’s saying a lot.
