Dear David Seven oN ★ 6
Ok, maybe not the best of movies but definitely not the worst! Actual topic, interesting premise, definitely horror instead of drama as some reviews state. Enjoyable enough. Maybe, just maybe, it’s rather a 5/10 instead of a 6/10 but I definitely feel the need to compensate for the horrible reviews… 0
A Haunting in Venice Seven oN ★ 8
I’ll have to subtract a star from my rating cause this movie strays away from the book so much, that it can hardly be called an adaptation. As a movie on its own I really liked it though. Part mystery, part “horror”, it kept me hooked from start till end, giving me the occasional goosebumps. Definitely worth while the watch! 0
Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery Seven oN ★ 9
Fun cozy mystery with lots of twists and turns plus a fair amount of humor. Loved the cast and the atmosphere. I was invested throughout the whole movie and found myself grinning quite often. Very enjoyable! Hoping for a part 3! 0
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Seven oN ★ 9
Again, I loved this movie. I was so afraid this would be the last one but apparently more are coming, yay! I do hope it’s with the whole gang. Cause it’s the gang that evokes all these emotions: joy, happiness, grief, sadness, anger, frustration, hate, etc etc. Loved to get to know more about Rocket’s past, it was heartbreaking. Definitely looking forward to the next installment! 0
Die Frau des Zeitreisenden Seven oN ★ 8
Great adaptation. Of course parts are missing cause you just can’t depict a whole book in 1 ¾ of an hour. The time travel particularities are even more of a question mark in the movie than the book. Nonetheless, I loved the emotions and relationships portrayed. 0
Love According to Dalva Seven oN ★ 8
Very powerful movie that hits you right in the gut. Dalva slowly realizing what has happened, the truth about her mom, how other children live their lives, what friendship is… The scene where she realizes why her dad dyed her hair was very impactful. A tough movie but definitely recommend it! 0
Der Exorzist II - Der Ketzer Seven oN ★ 7
Ok, is it as good as the original? No. The acting feels less authentic, more theatrical. I often didn’t understand Dr. Gene’s choices. Nor did I fully understand the (why so small) part that Sharon played. The original movie simply was more eerie and engrossing, a classical example of less being more. Was it bad then? No! It has good cinematography and an interesting plot. I enjoyed it and I’m actually looking forward to watching the third movie! 0
Der Exorzist Seven oN ★ 10
Wow, just wow. This was filmed 50 years ago and scared the living hell out of me. Even though the feeling is different (I no longer watch it with a pillow covering most of my eyes) I still feel this heaviness in my stomach, a slight nauseous feeling in my throat. Awesome effects, awesome acting and awesome atmosphere. Never did it feel like a 2 hour movie. Great movie, truly great (can you tell I’m a fan, all over again?)! 0
Poltergeist III - Die dunkle Seite des Bösen Seven oN ★ 7
Again, I didn’t watch this one back when it was released, so no nostalgia here. And yes, some awful scenes, like the chopped of head or the (laughing?) meat in the cold store. And some very bad acting, especially by Nancy Allen. But also some neat scenes (throwing out all of my mirrors), eerie atmosphere and nice ending to the trilogy. “Her nightmare is over.” 0
