50 15% Exodus: Gods and Kings Exodus: Gods and Kings (2014) - Rated 29 Mar 2015
"I'm starting to dislike Ridley Scott. "Exodus" features a boring storyline with no tension or emotion at all and a lot of wasted talent. Simply unimaginative direction. Only nice CGI. -- A waste of Christian Bale's precious creative time."
85 91% Constantine Constantine (2005) - Rated 28 Mar 2015
"I've never read the source material "Hellblazer", still, back in 2005 its aesthetics made "Constantine" one hell of a visit to the cinema. Today, it demands a fitting home cinema equipment to take full effect. Luckily, the great visuals that are still amazing to watch a decade later are met with concise story-telling and a powerful cast. Too bad the planned sequel never came about!"
63 36% Chappie Chappie (2015) - Rated 27 May 2015
"Barely engaging, revisiting themes and tropes of Blomkamp's "District 9" too heavily, along with characters that simply aren't capable of being related with. -- Good visual effects just can't hide flaws in writing and editing."
52 17% The Manchurian Candidate The Manchurian Candidate (2004) - Rated 06 Jun 2015
"The production design looks like the movie was made in 1994 not 2004 and brings back memories of the hideous technologies presented in "Face/Off" at times. -- The novel might have the makings of a good thriller, this adaptation does not."
74 74% Backcountry Backcountry (2015) - Rated 21 Mar 2015
"Thrilling!"
44 9% Survivor Survivor (2015) - Rated 31 May 2015
"Pierce Brosnan's performance shines a lonely yet still tiny light on this underwhelming succession of plot holes. -- Poor directing, editing, book and general acting with no tension at all."
54 19% Selma Selma (2014) - Rated 07 Jun 2015
"The events portrayed are stirring, the portrayal in "Selma" is not. A way too clinical, not to say poor depiction."
47 12% The Cobbler The Cobbler (2015) - Rated 13 Mar 2015
"The formula of family, fantasy and fun is reminiscent of Sandler's 2006 "Click" but executed tedious and foreseeable. -- Bluntly disappointing."
75 77% Non-Stop Non-Stop (2014) - Rated 27 Feb 2015
"Achieves what the "Taken" series didn't manage to bring to the screen for its second and third instance. Easily, a more calm "Taken On A Plane". -- Great suspense, highly underrated!"
35 4% Jupiter Ascending Jupiter Ascending (2015) - Rated 01 May 2015
"Weird characters, meaningless action sequences, unappealing story-telling. Sadly, another failure for the Wachowskis."
