Reviews

I like this movie. It is romantic, yet thrilling. It is realistic. Good camera. Good acting. Nice locality. Big realistic white shark who looks like they do and behave like a shark, at least doesnt do anything they can't do.

One moment is great for heart attack. Another one for shark attack. 🙃

There was also this moment when they were deciding what are they going to do next. If they want to stay where they are or swim to the nearest Island. Interesting question. In that specific context. I would probably swim.

Yes, even when I know what happened.

I still get back to this movie and watch it again.

If you like shark movies, I recommend this one. Scary, but not too scary.

I expected something deeper, more logical and more helpful to understand how one could possibly overcome something as terrible as killed child (who was also sexually abused if I understood correctly). But this movie was just illogical and trashy. I am pretty sure that grieving father would react differently. The whole family actually. You cannot lost a child to such brutal horrifying event and just continue life being a little sad. Then he came to that shack where he met God's trinity and they talked a lot about god's willingness to let people be beaten, raped or murdered, but didn't really answer anything. It presents abuse as something learn from parents. You were beaten as a child, so you will beat your children. Something like twisted generation trauma. Which is a misinterpretation really rude to victims and survivors. Even if true, you being abused don't excuse you being abusive...

This movie also supports the idea that we cannot tell what is bad and what is good (how could you know if to murder a child is bad or good, right???) and this, imo, leads to ignorancy and passivity. Like you know these things like beating and raping wives or kids are happening, and then you do nothing about it because they will learn from it, it is happening for a reason, it is a part of gods plan, other stupid and coward opinions... We don't need more people with this attitude.

We need people who know it is bad and then are trying to do the right about it (which could be easy like call the cops, mention a helping project, etc.)

I like this one a lot. I even cry a little.

This is an important movie for victims, survivors, and the others who want this abuse to be taken seriously and to be done something about it.

Rape is shown as something disgusting, horrible, despicable, a serious trauma. But you can overcome it and have your life back (a.k.a. The victims and survivors here aren't hysterical and disillusions after decades like they are pictured in some other movies).

It is also trustworthy and authentically showing the dilemma if you should open the old trauma. If it is worthy to stand up and speak. If there is someone who will listen and trust you. It is kinda soothing.

The acting, the costumes and the music weren't anything special, neither something bad. The power of this movie lies in the message.

This is actually a clever thoughtful movie. It confronts a lot of stereotypes about hetero women, hetero men and gay men. It makes fun of the expectations we have towards women and their roles in society and marriage.

It shows us the absurdity of uniformed behavior strictly based on gender and that there is not just one way to be a woman (or a man).

I wouldn't say it is a remake, for me it is more a parody of the first movie. This one is clever, romantic and funny and has interesting female characters.

Nicole Kidman is brilliant in this movie. So is Glenn Close, Bette Midler and Roger Bart.

And it has iconic music.

This movie is a nice traditional Czech fairytale comedy. Most of the humor used is contextual, so you need to know Christians fairytales to understand the jokes. Maybe even how they are interpreted in Middle Europe.

The cast is pretty famous for older generation in our location. The costumes are simple and historical. The exteriors and interiors are quite ordinary for that period in our history. It is classical Czech(Czechoslovak) fairytale.

Don't get me wrong, I've always appreciated how the Czech people keep their fairytales alive, but it is not something ultra cool with lot of special effects.

I watch this movie every year on Christmas Eve.

This is a funny futuristic and important movie. It has many powerful messages.

There are strong and diverse female characters. One is physically skillful and prioritize monarchy over love. Another is intelligent, altruistic and emotionally mature. And there is also badass genial scientist.

The characters in general are clever, mature and even the main "bad guy" is understandable - you may disagree with his actions, but you understand his rage and why he is the way he is.

Also, I really like how the technology can complement the traditional African cultures, the Wakanda culture: music, rituals, outfits, dances, architecture,...

I didn't think that this would be my thing, but it was quite genial. It is futuristic and really clever. It is about a group of people and robots locked in a house by AI dictator. There are mentions of many important challenges that are coming or the old ones not resolved until these days.

There is everything. Love, Fascism, Emotions, Humor, Humanity. The characters are diverse and strange. Another-world-like, but still very similar to today's people. And actually the robots (locked in the house), too.

This Directors has a really unique style and this movie really worked for me.

It is really colorful and live. From every point of view.

I liked this movie a lot. It was not boring, it was not too quick, so you can think about it during the movie and make your own guess about what had happened. But also it made me think a little after the end. I'd say it is not very common, but some people will definitely find it worthy of more thoughts.

The actors and the actresses were quite good. The interiors and the exteriors in the movie were interesting, detail-focused and "new". I can say it was visually pleasing.

At the other hand, the introduction to the plot for the viewer is a little long. So it can be boring when you are in mood for the type of crimi where it is thrilling right from the start. One thing stayed unclear. The secondary stories of the other "friends" could be more exposed and explained.
