"Boyhood" 7/10

An amazing achievement, but not a very amazing experience.




"7500" 6/10

The new Takashi Shimizu creation has sure been a long time on its way. So was it worth the wait? Meh.. wasn't horrible.

The first 20-30 minutes of build-up where we get to know the characters were quite good. Then the horror elements began and this was when the movie started to piss me off. You would think that a guy like Shimizu would have a lot more imagination and creativity than just pulling off the same kind of scare over and over again. But nope, not in this movie. What we constantly get is a hint of something scary starting to happen, then we see a passengers horrified face, and then CUT. Next scene. This goes on and on until the twist at the very end. A twist that reminded me of a very bad shyamalan movie. Didn't make any sense whatsoever. And before that, no real climax. In conclusion, this was a pretty entertaining but not very satishfying effort.

So once again, bow your head in shame, Shimizu. I expect MUCH more from you.




"The Two Faces of January" 6-7/10

A well acted and somewhat entertaining thriller.
