About Me: I am passionate about movies and books - in both genre and storytelling style matter very little to me as long as I am interested in the story itself and in the characters. The 1700 years old city I live in, heavily influences my love for history, exploration and travel. Of course, I try to nourish all these desires as often as I can, in good company whenever possible.
Interests: Movies, books, history, travel, writing.

Latest Movie Review
Rating of
2.5/4
Could have been so much more!
Hm. I am still trying to figure out what do I think of this movie. Special effects were great. Actors were great too, but somehow not enough used, especially Morgan Freeman and Coster-Waldau - any actor could have been on their places, the difference wouldn't have been noticed. The story though -- despite some quite melodramatic moments and repeats that could have been skipped -- was interesting till the last third of the movie, when... I do not wish to spoil the movie to you, so let me say only that the denouement was brought to viewers as if we were God forbid mildly stupid. It could have been much shorter, with less explicit for-dummies explanations, and with much more stress on the foe who - as it turned out in the end - wasn't so …

A lot of classics on this list but definitely worth viewing. Happy watching/hunting :-)

Total Recall Review comment
The story is really short and in my opinion funny, takes only a couple of minutes to read :) Verhoeven got the point of the story and presented it masterfully - at the end we are not certain was it all real (memory) or just an implanted dream (my take) - which Wiseman either didn't understand or didn't know to put well in the movie.

Total Recall Review comment
Brain-dead action sf movie - yeah, that pretty much sums up my experience. Even though I got to see it early for free, it was a letdown. I should really track down the original story and read it, considering I am a sci-fi fan. I'll put it on my list of things to do (eventually).

The Woman in Black Review comment
Catching up on recent reviews - I was looking forward to this one, but my excitement is tempered by the overwhelming mediocre reviews for this movie. I just hope it turns out better than Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (in terms of horror anyway).

Chronicle Review comment
Cool review. If only the story line was deeper and characters more likable. I enjoyed the effects and fight scenes, so realistic.

Thanks! I put a lot of time and effort into making my lists. And you were right about my 'Overrated' list, but there are a couple on there I do despise.

Cool list. We share some of the same favorites. Though, there are still many on this list I've never seen.

Underworld Awakening Review comment
Finally, someone recognizes this flick for the piece of crap it is. LIke I said in my review, it's nothing but a bunch of video game action moments cobbled together to resemble a movie.

Thanks for getting back to me - if you want to fill out the information on any of the films with missing data, it would be appreciated, but it's not necessary. As long as you keep sending in the corrections, it will get back to me and I have no problem filling in the blanks.
