7/10
The weirdest Sasquatch movie
20 February 2024
Well, I didn't actually knew what to expect, but in the end it was a quite entertaining experience.

The Zellner brothers introduced the movie to the audience at the Berlinale and said it probably is the weirdest Sasquatch movie. It is.

While some scenes are excessively obscene, we had some good laughs over the blunt portrayal of this family living in the woods. You will probably say WTF a dozen times. I understand that some people walked out of the theater. However, in my opinion, the movie manages to balance obscenity, humor and drama quite good.

Personally, I was pleasantly surprised how much story one can tell without using a single spoken word, and with only little facial expression. I believe the actors tried their best, but one could see that the costumes limited overall movement and expressions.

I would probably not pay 15 bucks again to watch the movie in a theater, but it wasn't too bad after all. A solid 7/10.

Jason Bourne (I) (2016)
6/10
Sadly a disappointing sequel of the Bourne series
7 May 2017
I was a big fan of the Bourne series since watching the first movie. Matt Damon did an excellent job in playing the role as Jason. However, after the first three, exceptional titles, this last one was nothing more than a good action thriller. However, I was quite disappointed after watching Jason Bourne. It just don't felt that dense and enthralling like the first two movies with Damon. Yes, it was thrilling to some point but it seems the director wanted way more action than other elements in his movie. There was something missing. The point of the i, the little drop that makes the barrel slop over, that feeling that the other two movies had. Even If I'm a huge fan of the series I would recommend the producers to just stop here and let the series become history instead of wasting it for another action movie that maybe ruins the whole series. Also, Damon is becoming older and even if he seems quite fit in Jason Bourne, I could bet he won't cut out a fine figure in a possible sequel. If they really decide to work on another title, I really hope they take their time and push out a masterpiece of a thriller, not a James Bond-like action flick.
