What is it about?
New Jersey raised Kamala Khan learns she has polymorphous powers.
My verdict:
Well, even if it was maybe not really amazing, it was still another really refreshing TV-show from Marvel. I wish they did connect more the TV-shows together or with the full-length features (in this case, there was just a very short cameo of Captain Marvel which did last only a few seconds) but, still, it was pretty awesome to see the first Muslim super-hero in the MCU.
“To be honest, I wasnāt really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was directed by Anne Fontaine, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, it turned out to be a decent portrayal of a young boy (and man) struggling with his homosexuality within an intolerant and hostile environment” read more

- Moon Knight (2022)
Notes: Well, as far as I was concerned, I thought it was visually impressive and I really enjoyed the tense dark ominous mood. I have to admit that I was little concerned after I saw the trailer which, to be honest, didnāt really impress me as it made the whole thing look like a rather basic vengeance tale. Indeed, the biggest challenge for Robert Eggers was to turn this classic Scandinavian legend which had inspired countless other stories such as āHamletā or even āThe Lion Kingā into something new and, if I have to be honest with myself, he didnāt really succeed. Sure, I loved the visuals and how was I completely immersed in this vintage Viking world but the whole thing was still too predictable. I have to admit that I didnāt see coming the scene when Amlethās mother pretty much shattered his already fairly demented psychological state by revealing her true feelings about his father and even himself. However, it was the only surprising thing that occurred during more than 2 hours of mayhem. Still, the general madness and the bleakness of the whole endeavor was very much appreciated. Eventually, if you see the current state of our world, 1000 years later, our inclination for violence didnāt really change, the only thing which has evolved is that we donāt use such seemingly innocent axes anymore but missiles capable of wiping out a whole building. In the meantime, we still manage to fight for the most dubious reasons and we will keep doing it because thatās our tragic nature.

“It was my turn to pick up a film for our filmclub and, as usual, I tried to go for a big gamble and went for a huge Viking epic saga, easily the most violent movie we have seen so far. Well, as far as I was concerned, I thought it was visually impressive and I really enjoyed the tense dark ominous m” read more
“First of all, I have to admit thatĀ I didnāt really like āDaddyās Homeā but since this sequel was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, Iām probably giving this movie way too much credit because I was expecting something so bad but, to be honest, I thought it ” read more
“To be honest, I had no idea what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Jennifer Hoffman, I thought I might as well check it out with my wife. It was apparently based on a very successful Dutch Ā TV-show that we both didnāt see it but its success was the main reason why my wife” read more
