“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Gemma Arterton, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, I had never heard of Robert Freegard before and it turned out to be quite an incredible story. Indeed, I usually have a weak spot for con artist” read more
“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it seemed to have a decent reputation (it is included in the âThe Best 1,000 Movies Ever Madeâ list selected by the New York Times, among other things), I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, I have to admit that I ha” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but, ever since this movie was announced, there was some pretty good buzz about it and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, I have to admit that I actually never heard of Leonard B” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it did win the CĂ©sar of the Best movie of the year, I was quite eager to check it out. Eventually, it turned out to be some kind of French version of âTraining Dayâ, except that everything that happened during this fi” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Zoey Deutch, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, it turned out to be another riff on the âGroundhog Dayâ concept and, this time, they mixed it up with a typical high-school drama which ” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was directed by Claude Chabrol and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out.

“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, To be honest, I thought it was not bad at all as it turned out to be a solid Dutch thriller after all. Indeed, the story and the characters involved were all qu” read more
“Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about W.C. Fields, I was quite eager to check his movies. Well, this is only the 2nd movie I have seen involving the legendary comedian but, to be honest, it seems that the guy played pretty much the same character in all his movies. On the other hand, I ” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, even if it seemed to be another uninspired and forgettable Netflix production, I think the damned thing actually had some potential. Indeed, above ” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât expecting much from this flick but since it was starring Emma Roberts and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, unfortunately, as expected, it turned out to be a cheap romantic comedy with a rather weak concept. I still think that E” read more
“To be honest, this movie was not really a priority at all but my Nick, my step-son, was quite eager to check it out. On the other hand, like everyone else, we are both a little bit done with super-heroes features so it was pretty neat to see something completely different. In fact, even though I hav” read more
“I have to admit that I was rather clueless about Harold Lloydâs movies for so long and it has been pretty neat to finally discover his work recently.

“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was directed by Patrice Leconte and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out.

“I know that DreamWorks never reached the level of Pixar but it has been a real shore to watch their recent output because pretty much all their new movies have been just so underwhelming. As a result, I wasnât expecting much from this flick but, since this sequel was available on Netflix, I though” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but, since there was a decent cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out anyway. The trouble during the production of this movie was quite notorious and it would make more waves than the movie itself. Indeed, it was shot ” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât really expecting much from this 3rd instalment but, since it was directed by Steven Soderbergh, I thought I might as well check it out anyway. Well, to my surprise, I thought it was not so bad after all. Sure, the fact that I was expecting something rather weak probably did ” read more
“Even though I was rather clueless about Buster Keaton's movies for many years, I have been focusing on his work since a few years and, by now, I have already seen a dozen of his movies. The tricky thing is that I might have seen too many of them because, even though this one seems to have a really s” read more
“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but, since it seemed to have a decent reputation and since it was available on YouTube, I thought I might as well check it out.

“Since I've always been a big fan of Joaquin Phoenix and since this movie was directed by Ari Aster, of course, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, it turned out to be a really challenging movie and, to be honest, I'm not surprised that it turned out to be a flop when it was released. It's not t” read more
“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was available on YouTube, I thought I might as well check it out.

“In fact, I was planning to watch something completely different, I was supposed to watch âMagic Mike's Last Danceâ but I kept having some technical issues with this movie so I switched to something completely different at the last moment. Well, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise after al” read more
“Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about this flick, I thought I might finally check it out. Seriously, it is rather surprising that it took me so long to finally watch it.

“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Ben Stiller, I thought I might as well check it out. Basically, most of the duration was some kind of inner dialogue but it did help that Ben Stiller was pretty good here. In fact, I canât remember the last time that I” read more
“To be honest, I wasnât expecting much from the damned thing but since it was starring Diane Keaton, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, it was fairly abysmal, I'm afraid. And yet, Diane Keaton and Jacki Weaver are both such fine actresses, it was actually rather impressive how much they ” read more

“I wasnât really sure what to expect from this flick but I have always been intrigued by Ennio Morriconeâs work and since this movie was directed by Giuseppe Tornatore, I thought I might as well check it out. To be honest, the first 10 minutes were rather slightly annoying. Sure, I get that Morri” read more
“To be honest, since this movie didnât get much love when it was released, I wasnât really sure what to expect from it but, since it was directed by Robert Rodriguez and was starring Ben Affleck, I thought I might as well check it out anyway.

“Recently, I have been focusing on older movies and, after watching Charles Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd, Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, it was really time to finally watch something with Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle. Back then, Arbuckle was actually the biggest star of them all but he was hit by a” read more
