Assassin's Creed (2016)
Loved it
As a devoted Michael Fassbender fan, I had to watch this movie of course but I was very wary because of the bad critics and expected the worst. What can I say? I really can't understand this many many bad reviews and the slam from the critic. I have no idea about the video game but I could follow the story easily. The action is spectacular, the actors amazing, the CGI and the pictures breathtaking. I don't know what else to ask from an action film.
Taken (2017)
Not again
I really wanted to like this, because I love Clive Standen. But it is just another FBI, Homeland Security, CIA or whatever show, we have seen a thousand times. Hard but somehow sentimental Superhero forced to work with a tough Special Troop. And of course he becomes the best man. He and the Professionals behave extremely stupid when the plot needs a twist. And we have the tough Boss woman, the female nerd and the black and Latino sidekicks. It really gets boring.
The OA (2016)
No
No, nothing for me. A confusing, extremely slow and boring mix of strange stories. Half daily soap, half some psychological esoteric stuff. With a disappointing end, which didn't resolve anything for me. The actors are great though, but this is not enough for 8 episodes. If they would have packed this in 4 episodes max and came up with a decent ending, it could have been a good mini series. But this looks blown out of proportion and the end gives me the feeling, they did it to make a second season possible. Because it wasn't even a proper semi-end. The whole story seems unfinished somehow. An unfinished idea prolonged endlessly.
The Attachment (2016)
This is so bad!
This is the first time that I watched a movie without reading reviews before. But in this case it wouldn't have helped me because the reviews are mostly good. All the good reviews so far must come from the people who made this film or their family. It is impossible that an unbiased person likes this crap. We have here a Z-Film from the UK. It is so bad that I think some town folks bought a camera and made a movie after working hours. No professional film maker could come up with such bad acting. The script is mere terrible and a copy of every bad horror movie about religious evil ever made.The effects would shame Ed Wood. And the evil villain would bore a toddler. It is ridiculous! Don't waste your time with this piece of trash.
Extracted (2012)
Highly underrated
I only watched this movie because of a pretty good score in Netflix. This is a very good movie, great idea and good acting. I have no idea why this movie was so poorly reviewed. The story is classy science fiction about a scientist stuck in his own mind reading experiment and desperately trying to find his way out. During a prototype demonstration to replay the murder of a young woman the scientist accidentally stayed in the mind of the accused person and his body fell into a coma. With the help of the guy he tries to find a way back. There a some nice plot twists and a satisfying end. I liked the movie very much and can only recommend it. Don't listen to the bad reviews and give it a try.
