So, we are looking at another "musterpiece" of the great combinator. And how they talk about their "Tenet"! They said it was almost a new landmark in cinematography; they said you had never seen anything like it (even the "inversion" button in the video editor); they said it was "such a smart thing, I swear on my mother"; they said it was about time, but it was "not about time travel, another genre"; they said that the creator had worked on the script for seven years - everything was thought over, perfected and so perfect that "wah, you will absolutely fall down". And so on, with the products of the noodle factories of Britain, Italy and America. But what does this magical noodles taste like? Let's eat... /noodles in Russian is a substitute for the word lie/

Ladj Ly's film "Les Misérables" received a mixed reception in our country. Telling about the extremely difficult situation in France, the movie was criticized mainly for the fact that the villainous author took the name of the great work of the great writer, and filmed some nonsense, far from the original. But how well-founded are these claims? Let's find out.

"Justice League" has come a long and arduous way. First to movie theaters, then to television. And Warner Bros. helped as much as they could. Well, by digging holes, setting up stakes at the bottom, filling in poisonous spiders and flooding pools with hungry piranhas. Zack Snyder started making the movie, but had to leave. "The League" was handed over to Joss Whedon. Who was supposed to "save the day." And the funny thing is, according to some particularly gifted people, it happened! The other people weren't happy, though. The picture was going to be a box office failure. But that didn't stop the gifted from screaming. The particularly gifted! Unfortunately for them, "everything" didn't end there. The audience took matters into their own hands and literally forced the studio to give the film back to Zack Snyder to finish what he originally wanted to make. So, victory! But is there even anything to celebrate? Let's find out...

Color Out Of Space is one of Lovecraft's finest works, though not as famous as those in the so-called Cthulhu Mythos. The writer himself is an extraordinary figure. He is the founding father of an entire genre of literature, which then wove its tentacles and culture far beyond the pages of books. And that makes it all the more bitter that there is still no truly high-quality, iconic, yet faithful to the source material adaptation of this writer's works. But maybe a Nick Cage movie could disprove what I'm saying? Let's find out...

Without putting it off, let's take a look at the next Zack Snyder movie after "Justice League" in order to appreciate all the aspects of the talent of the gloomy genius. And the more interesting this process will be, if you know that at one time it was with a movie about zombies that the maestro began his career. A film, in general, a landmark for the entire genre. The same level was expected now. All the more so given the hype that went up around the making of the picture. And the fact that Zack Snyder cherished the idea of making it since 2007, or maybe even earlier. So what has already turned out in the end. Did the new film become another milestone in such a controversial genre as a trash about zombies. Let's find out right now...

Back when the grass was greener (but not as green as in the eighties) and the sky was bluer (but not as blue as in the nineties) a mega movie about mega-dragons was released. It was played by world-class actors, and I must say they tried very hard (which you can't even hear, thanks to our Russian translation and dubbing). How does this movie look after twenty years? Is it somehow undeservedly not much remembered? Let's find out right now!

It's been two years since Netflix premiered The Witcher and began Lauren Hissrich's triumphant march through the brains and ears of audiences. And all the while, our lovely producer hasn't sat idly by. A second season is coming out soon. Plans are being made to conquer a universe far, far away. Where witchers live! But not the one you're thinking of! Although... I wouldn't be surprised at all if Lauren was going to make a cartoon series for kids about Geralt. Well, you remember those cute stories suitable even for kindergarteners! Anyway, the mockery of the Saga of Geralt and not only continues. One of the next masterpieces was also the animated film under consideration today...

Happy New Year, everyone! Last year at Christmas we had one lady with a bow, so why don't we have another one now? "The Hunger Games" and its main character, Kitniss Everdeen, made a very big impression on young audiences in their day. More than once or twice we have mentioned them in our reviews. Now it's time to take a closer look at them. And to examine what, why, and wherefore. After all, children are the future of the world. And the things on which children are brought up, then shapes the face of the world. So "educator," tell us your story...
