This new series on Netflix is really something for numerous reasons. One is that it nicely portrays how ordinary people can turn into very nasty creatures. The other is that the series brings old memories when we watched classics such as The Fog, in which this series is based. Apparently, the series is also based…
Director: Alex Ranarivelo Rating: 4/5 A new film on Netflix offers a well-known narration of corporations destroying farmers and small businesses in America. However, this film also offers something else, and that is criticism of NGOs and their plight to protect the nature while destroying people’s lives. This is quite novel in cinematography that normally…
Director: Adam Wingard Rating: 4/5 If I knew I would end up writing film and series reviews on my blog when I first started it, perhaps I would have considered naming it “blog of a sci-fi nerd” or something like that. I surely like sci-fi, and I clearly liked this film. In this film, we…
Director: Pat Healey Rating: 3/5 Take me is a new film of Netflix, which only had 88% score for me on the programme matching. Given the experience with The Incredible Jessica James (see here) and other films that were scored low on matches and I ended up disliking (see also here) I was considering skipping…
Director: Jim Strouse Rating: 2/5 This is a new film on Netflix, and it came up in my search stating “because of your interest in Naked”. I freaked out because I really did not like that film (see here), and while this film is better than Naked I was still disappointed. Like I said in…
Gypsy is a new series on Netflix, and I honestly do not know what to say about it. I knew right from the beginning that this would not be everybody’s cup of tea since there is lots of talk and thoughts, rather than action. But, I do like that especially when directors are telling us…
Director: Tommy Wirkola Rating: 5/5 If you liked the Hunger Games, Netflix’s series “3%”, Stasis and similar TV and film production depicting dystopian future, you will love this new film on Netflix. And, if you are like me and you don’t like when the film is based only on action but you prefer to watch a…
Director: Peter Hutchings Rating: 3.5/5 The Outskirts is a fun and entertaining movie, with a typical story of US High School drama that teenagers go through before they go to college. We’ve seen many movies with this theme, and this one is very similar to other movies on the same topic. There is an evil…
I watched this series as soon as it came out, and I did not let it go until I saw all episodes. So, there I am back to enthusiasm with Netflix’s programme and I clearly seem to be a fun of TV programmes based on really good and detailed research by their directors and writers…
Rating: 4.5/5 This is a new film from F.C. Rabbath and the film is not out yet (scheduled for October this year for the US audience). I’ve got it from the director himself and watched it immediately given the fact I loved his film Listen, which remains a film hard to beat when it comes to…
Director: Michael Tiddes Rating: 2/5 I was recently worrying that my blog does not look serious enough because I love everything Netflix produces, and vast majority of my blogs are too positive and enthusiastic. Then along came Naked to sort the balance out. This film is a classical example of the new era in…
This is the final blog in the #SaveTheCulture series. The last book is a true story, “Don’t Let’s Go to the Dogs Tonight”, published by Picador in 2002. The book is written by Alexandra Fuller and it is about her life and growing up in Africa. Thus, we get to follow her life from childhood…
Rating: 4/5 Stasis is a new film on Netflix, and yet another story of time travelling and the doomed future ahead of us. The film is directed by Nicole Jones Dion. I naturally enjoyed time travelling as I am a fan, and I enjoyed a distinctive characteristic of this film, which is travelling to the…
