The New Toy (2022)

Amazing acting. Great story and final tears

[8/10 · 23 October 2023]

We see another great performance from two wonderful actors: Daniel Auteuil and Jamel Debbouze. These two actors have such a bit star on top of their heads. You can throw any role to these two and they will deliver. And I believe that the young Simon Faliu is on his way to real stardom as well. What a performance.

A remake of "Le Jouet" de Francis Weber, which I have not seen. But I am very happy to have watched this new version.

Not sure if this could happen in real life. It looks like a fairytale, but with money, anything is possible, right?

Sure every little piece of this story appears on other movies, either on their own or coupled with some others. But this really makes it shine.

John Wick: Chapter 4 (2023)

Fantastic workout for all the actors. But boring as hell

[2/10 · 7 June 2023]

John Wick 1 had a purpose. The second could be a good sequel. Then thrid was just a whole bunch of silly fight and shooting with people wearing bulletproof suits so they protect their faces with their jaket, they take bullet on the legs, arms etc. Keep fighting and shooting. But a knife can easily go through! What a joke.

The Chapter 4 is really the dumbest of all. There is hardly any intelligent structure on that movie. Just fight with swords, guns, knives etc. And guess what? Same suits!

I don't konw how many gunshots were fired during the making of this film. The company making the blanks must have made a fortune.

Waste of money and time.

Lake Placid 3 (2010 TV Movie)

Poor story, poor acting and very bad special effects

[1/10 · 6 April 2013]

I enjoyed Lake Placid 1. The first sequel was quite bad and I would have expected the third attempt of this series to be much better with all the special effect arsenal at disposal.

What a disappointment. The story is terrible, the acting is under par and the special effects are the worse I have ever seen. The reptiles are so unreal. You can see through because the special effect is so bad. The story line makes no sense. The actors are just beginners and I would have never chosen them at all. In fact, if I had been the producer, I would have cut all cost after watching the first 5 minutes of this appalling piece of acting.

What a waste of time this movie is. If there was possible to put a 0 star, this would have been my choice.
