Gods of Egypt

Honestly I admit, we very much waited for this movie. My many friends purely because of an action in a trailer, the trailer was abrupt. And here I waited for this movie hoping for reliability on a canon of the Egyptian mythology as I have re-read a lot of things about the Egyptian, Ancient Greek and Scandinavian mythologies, have played Age Of Mythology. Well so we will begin.

On a plot action happens in Ancient Egypt which rules not Pharaohs, but gods yet. The lord Osiris decides to retire and delegate the power to the son Gore, but on crowning Seth rushes. Severe god of the desert kills Osiris, and blinds Gore. Egypt appears under a heel of ruthless god of the murderer. To help Gore return the power only the pilferer Beck knowing plans of a pyramid of Seth can.

After Hours

This movie has seemed to me pretty strange. But, strange — bad doesn't mean. It means that I didn't see it yet, I have looked at something new, not similar to the majority. The matter is that it is impossible to foresee that will be in 5 minutes, events change so quickly and spontaneously that it is necessary only to sit and look behind all this confusion.

Irrational Man.


There are entertaining movies on which long and laboriously the team of professionals and which are based on unexpected turns and clumsy trouble-free jokes works. After one of such and to answer a question: "about what cinema?" there is nothing.

And there are author's pictures which are created for expression of views and which are presented in the entertaining format easy and direct.

The entertaining format with which the Irrational person is invested is the eternal dry bouquet from philosophers collected by Woody Allen in early movies; the nature in all beauty which is so vividly transferred; a condition of general fun, and, at last, invariable cheerfulness which was embodied in Jill.

Fifty Shades of Grey

Not going to tell you the plot, because all who will come to IMDb to read reviews, even those who have not read the book, you know what it's about. I'll start with the fact that at the beginning of the film says "based on the motives 50OC". So we will not complain about to many cut scenes, but it did not affect the quality and ideas of the film. Even to those who do not read books, it will be all clear. And if you leave it, it will be too small. I think the filmmakers as much as possible on as many adhered to the framework of the book and all the basic considered!

The film is shot very qualitatively and beautifully! A lot of interesting shots, a lot of cool chips with close-UPS and emphasis on the details! The film is not vulgar good humour that seemed very appropriate in the given picture. Although at first it was hard to imagine why people left a hall, said "the whole room was Laughing".

Pulp Fiction

Tell me, who did not look on the movie "pulp fiction"? If there was one, pochityvaya this review, drop everything and go look! Eighteen years later (time flies...) after the world premiere of the immortal picture of Quentin Tarantino will be shown in Russian cinemas. Reanimation of old movies are nothing new, and usually it ends with the prefix "3D". As well, distributors have the decency not to disgrace the "pulp fiction" those useless three-dimensional attraction. And what is there to see in 3D? Except that Marvin's brains scattered on the back seat "Chevy Malibu" in 1964.

In 1992, the world first learned about Quentin Tarantino. Then came his "reservoir dogs". The film, which stunned and amazed moldy Hollywood for his courage, surprise and a completely unique style. Many were convinced that the young upstart of the film distribution will be limited to one film. However, two years later you see "pulp fiction", which in a cosmically short period will acquire a cult status. The film won the "Oscar" and "Golden globe" for best screenplay, and certainly would have a best movie, but 1994 year was paradoxically fruitful for blockbusters. Try potagia with "the Shawshank redemption" or "Forrest Gump".

Le tout nouveau testament

This story reminded me of the mood of "Amelie" and "Big fish". It is full of strange people, whose fates intertwine thanks to a little girl — the daughter of a God named....

Spotlight

For some reason from the first frame, on which in grey tones depicts the insides of the journalistic offices of the company, the picture reminded me of a film "From Baghdad to live", which also one of the main roles was played by Michael Keaton, though his presence in the frame have influenced this Association. And know, later I went to the feeling of similarity data of pictures in the first place due to the similarity in the narrative.

But ultimately, I undoubtedly acknowledge that the creation of Tom McCarthy has a huge host of advantages before painting Mick Jackson.

"In the spotlight" is the viewer without the beautiful and innuendo is so controversial and little affected public topic that it's just hard to believe in its actual existence in the realities of our world that many people (at least in my environment) imagine a place where there is no trace of huge lies and human vanity. Here, however, the veil slips. Untrained viewer will not that difficult, it would be undesirable to consider this picture a reflection of real events that occurred with the Boston Globe in 2001 year. Because I just want to say that the film is heavy, it is full of oppressive moods, but she shakes worldview.

Brooklyn

Ellis, perhaps for a long time trying to find happiness at the dance, surviving on meager income working part time at saligny traders on weekends, if not for the decision of the elder sister, speculate overseas pastor who had organized the young girl a ticket to the New world, financially supporting her at first and then, later, when even modest Affairs that took up their education, entering the interest and the taste.

So this movie, contrary to many versions, not romantic, but pragmatic and nonetheless, life-affirming story of realizing the dream of personal happiness under the cover of well known American dream, which was pushed here away, in a remote corner, leaving space in the foreground of external and internal transformation of a modest girl, to meet, finally someone who was able to appreciate it.

To estimate the costs and Sirsa Ronan, the heroine of which is destined to survive more than one series change the way I look at life and many sovetami, who will meet her on the way, on the ship's deck or in a residential guest house, each with its own lessons and insights, making her wiser, step by step and little by little, from one episode to another in the company of great Actresses and actors, in the face of the charming Julie Walters and Jim Broadbent, which for full happiness need is just one moment.

Creed: Legacy rocky

"Creed: Legacy rocky" might be a continuation of the story of perhaps the most famous boxer on the screen, but at the same time, the basic story of this film revolves around another character. The film tell us about the illegitimate son of Apollo creed, which, though never seen his father, but knows who he is and who he was. Creed Jr. is keeping his real name, but the genes have not gone anywhere. He was already from early childhood knows what a pain a real fight and what blood tastes like. All this and more, in the end, and pulls the younger creed to a fight where probably his most important in life. And as time to climb this ring helps him rocky Balboa.

Once again there was no disappointment, you need to understand that the main character in this movie, not rocky, it becomes clear already from the title. Movie Ryan Kugler skillfully tells the story of a completely new character, not previously familiar to fans of the franchise about rocky, combining and continuing the history of the rocky. And it all together looks great.

Room

The film Leonard Abrahamson stands out from the list of nominees in the category "Best film" because it causes involuntary to think about their freedom. His personal freedom. This psychological drama, I think one of the best (if not best) in its genre in 2015.

Rapist 7 years ago kidnaps the heroine and leaves her imprisoned in a shed, where the only connection to the world — the hatch in the ceiling, which, in principle, impossible to reach. A couple of years, the heroine brie Larson born son Jack. She feeds him tales that all outside the rooms in the barn — space and outside space — Paradise. But when Jack celebrates its first anniversary, the mother decides that it is time to get out of here, and tells his son the truth. In the end, the boy, pretending to be a corpse, the rapist takes away for later burial, but he manages to escape, and then, and mother and son be at liberty.

Sinister 2

If the first "Sinister" from Scott Derrickson can still be seen as incredibly cool horror movie (after re-entry, it is not so interesting, but still wildly atmospheric).

Its sequel, where stood at the helm debutant Kieran Foy, looks pure fake and a sham which makes acting James Ransone and although weak, but the original story with children as close as possible to the genre of dark fantasy, still managed to keep me until the end of the film.

Where to treated kindly by critics "It Follows", whose success I accept, and the music is sometimes've been relistening. However, as original a horror film not taken seriously (it is too like carpenter, and me because it hurts). And as for the second Sinister?

War & Peace

Loved this version of the classic work, already set the teeth on edge. If you compare our film Bondarchuk, then you can safely put 10 points at least for boldness of casting — all the characters are the right age. In addition, there is no special division between "good", which is like a thick and bad, that he doesn't like. For example, take "positive" Bezukhov and a "bad" sharer. Anna Pavlovna Scherer. Thick she didn't like, because she's 40 years old, single (spinster), she has her own business (salon). No one will remember the top of my head who played in the Oscar-winning film. And here is Gillian Anderson. Beautiful woman, maid, aristocrat is a businesswoman with a quick mind and excellent communication skills. Her "flaw" referenced by Tolstoy — it's the same a saying that "successful woman is a married woman".

Un moment d'égarement

Film truly of French origin and it has already been said if not all but a lot for sure. This easy-traditionally-spicy picture, which let does not raise any important issues of the day, not trying to really deeply, with a sort of fashionable to dramatic anguish, to dig in the dark of the soul. Although the age difference of the partners rather condemn-discussed topic, but then gossip and empty "talking shop", the conflict is very much a personal and individually resolvable, even more watchable, yet to delve into the "dirty Laundry" is the most common and tempting Vice.

The Danish Girl

"Your gender is not between your legs, but in my head". It is this phrase I described the whole idea of the film "The Danish Girl". It should be noted that transsexuality is not filmed so many movies. To my mind comes the film "Boys don't cry". But there it was about a FTM (female-to-male), which means "woman in a man". Film directed by Tom Hooper tells the story of a MTF (male-to-female), transgender woman. I have no complaints with how the world was shown Einar Wegener, who for a time was a block to get to know herself.

The Loft

~ The loft is the second remake of the Belgian Loft. Don't know why so many. I don't understand it. For me it's just the first and last Loft I looked up. Do not think, I did enjoy the movie, I don't know why the preview of this painting I've been putting off. Until I stumbled across it while watching TV.

~ The plot revolves around five married guys, the loft and the dead girl. A pile of suspicions. Everyone thinks for everyone. Enclosed space, constantly increasing stress, and the corpse, which is already pretty long to begin to put pressure on our "faithful men". And here come many secrets that are so carefully kept behind the door of the precious and secret loft. One of the downsides of this film is that these mysteries are too long up and have no relation to what happens in the end. But still, something appealing in this film and makes till the end to guess who the killer is... So the ending didn't disappoint rather than disappointed. The film at once..

Love Rosie

Though the film I looked for a long time, but never too late to write a review about it. Besides positive. The movie I waited about a year before that read the book (author Cecelia Ahern) and the story just captivated me. The plot is a new, not worn out, unusual. But now is go to the actual film itself, I think it is clear, as I have loved with all my heart as a film, and certainly the book.

The film is about the friendship between two people - Rosie Dunn and Alex Stewart for many years, since childhood. Also, they leave school, are going to go to university, but after graduation, Rosie realizes that she is pregnant, and plans for the immediate collapse ... But in spite of that, their relationship with Alex goes on, they are going through a lot of different things, even if so far but always supported each other, and in the end ... I will not reveal the essence, but at least, in all honesty, I'm sure that everything is clear.

Black Mirror Season 3

XXI Century. The age of technology appropriate to the magical black cube. Guess what's inside? Anything.
Britain occupies seventh position in the ranking of most developed countries, the technology (such as the manufacture and factories) came before us - XVI century against our XVIII (Europe - XV century). Not surprisingly, with such an experience, the British decided to do divination.
"Black Mirror" - brought to life the concept of screenwriter Charlie Brooker (Charlie Brooker), formerly known mini-film "Dead End." So he puts into their heads the idea of ​​the behavior of the people in the tech world of the future. Let's look at it this way.

Krampus

The film "Krampus" shot by Michael Daugherty think a good representative of the genre "comedy horror", with the movie and scary and funny at the same time. We should really have talent, adhering to a certain edge, when the film is held between the middle of horror and comedy, not slipping into something one, though it seemed to me, a horror movie still more.

Watching "Krampus" I am having good memories about "Gremlins' Joe Dante, taken already in 1984. Indeed, the atmosphere of horror and humor in these two tapes is very similar. Only instead of a cute fluffy Gizmo and vicious green gremlins-like mixture of lizards with the elves in front of us coming lovely to look at, but with cruel intentions gingerbread, toothy soft teddy bear, a transformer, a flying creature with a doll head, elves and many different monsters well, and of course the owner of all this evil - the ancient horned god of fertility, the prototype of Santa Claus Krampus.

The Imitation Game

Occasionally I have it is that after watching the film (especially similar subjects), late at night, I want to go to kinopoisk and share their experiences with the world. Indeed, the picture left an indelible impression.

In the folder "I will be watching" the movie gather dust for a long time, and here it is, a fluke. I still get to it and not how much regretted.

The story is interesting in itself: the secrets of "Enigma", attempts to decipher cryptic codes, inexpressible atmosphere of World War II (which, by the way, directors, actors and editors with great success managed to pass), drama, chained to the screen until the last moment, the experience of Hero. All of this - Il imitation.

Special thanks to the actors. Benedict Cumberbatch has already manifest itself in several films, the most famous - Sherlock Holmes, in which he plays a detective not ignorant as well as "The Imitation Game", was a success with viewers thanks largely to the game Cumberbatch. But for me, it is in "Simulation" Benedict fully proved himself as an actor with a capital letter, and cut his game on the spot. During his character constantly worried, though perhaps at times it can cause conflicting emotions in the viewer, however, you're always on his side, scolding destiny for all the injustice that fell on the shoulders of true genius.

Hotel Transylvania 2

Is the case when a lot of times you have viewed the trailer in theaters contained too many spoilers. But in fact it turned out that it made most of the jokes. On the other hand, it is such a catchy trailer I went to this cartoon, because not watched the first part and even have not heard about it. At a certain count Dracula's daughter has married a mortal and bore him a son. But heir a little like a vampire and everyone around trying to convince the newly-minted grandfather that the heir — hundred percent man. But the count, of course, not rented, and is committed to teaching his grandson the secrets of monsterism. This helps him, such monsters as Frankenstein, the werewolf, the mummy and many others. Only this way it becomes clear that the world has changed and people are not afraid of monsters, but rather come from them in delight, like some exotic curios. Yes, and the monsters learn to live in the human world, learning from them tolerance and respect for children. Civilization, what to say? Here on this difference between expectations and reality that underlies the humor of this animation. And humor, I must say, very good quality. It is also interesting how the dominance of mainstream technologies have a problem that is discussed now even in cartoons (e.g., got and facebook).

Bridge of Spies

The opportunity to watch a movie I fall quite often, so I always try to choose the film very carefully. The cast, Directors, plot and, of course, the genre. It usually takes a lot of valuable time, and eventually get boring and bland movie that spoils your mood for the next 24 hours. "Joy" caught my attention for a long time. Only now, everyone wanted to wait for Russian localization. Failed, I've found the original, but spent time on it definitely was worth it. The first 30 minutes show the life of joy (Jennifer Lawrence) before she starts to realize her life purpose. You literally feel all of these domestic issues that put pressure on the main character. Children requiring the care of the father-womanizer (Robert De Niro), mother is lazy, obsessed with series, ex-husband, who also has to contain and hated the work. All this joy is so exhausting that she didn't even have time to sleep peacefully.

Sicario

Along the border of USA and Mexico is a wall. Long standing, it was built to mark the place where reigns the law of the U.S. and where Mexican. But the boundary has shifted. Almost immediately. Along the border flying drones are flying the chopper, rolled constantly patrols the road. On one side two-lane concrete, a perfect highway, on the other hand the primer. Two worlds, the boundary between which long ago shifted. Interpenetration. In Mexico not even another world, not a zombie — there's just a different understanding of the law. . Another reality. There in megacities every day people without heads and hands hang out. They so to speak — has its own atmosphere. They are used to. They have the police riding around town even during the day no less than two machines, with machine guns and grenade launchers on the side. In the hands of anything smaller machine keep makes no sense, the only gun you will delight the local "lads" and will appreciate their frustration. New reality, with roots in the 60-ies of the twentieth century.

Carol

One of the best bands of 2015, a provocative drama about the uneasy relationship between the two women gets to our screens in March 2016, but it now successfully under way in American cinema and will almost certainly bring major movie awards to its creators. "Carol", based on the novel "the Price of salt" by Patricia Highsmith, caused a thunderous ovation after its premiere at the Cannes film festival and immediately gave rise to comparisons with another drama about a lesbian relationship "the Life of Adele", another Cannes winner. "Life Adele" is a riot of colors and emotions, and "Carol" — her older sister is an introvert, cold and restrained, but no less attractive.

Daddy's Home

Who likes to soak in the New Year festive mood and see the hilarious comedy New Year's? Specially for you to have the kind of movie where New Year is already in the title, so the mood is assured. But there is a big BUT, and here immediately followed by disappointment in Sean Anders' new comedy "Hi, Dad, New Year," no single word about this holiday.

The Big Short


For me as economist, interested "share affairs", this movie was one of expected. However, not for long I waited for it as a result, but the less. Besides, interest was stirred by talented actors in leading roles.

As a result I can tell that received from the movie exactly what waited for. About mortgage crisis I know both in the theory, and in practice. I remember how in 2008 when I finished a last year of university parents in concern called and asked whether there is in general something on counters of shops. I remember an agiotage, I remember general panic. Well, and we studied the theory also on special objects, and discussed together with the interested fellow students therefore I can tell that everything is shown in the movie very simply, literally on fingers, but at the same time is reliable and truthful.

The Little Prince


To shoot the animated film on magnificent work of Antoine de Saint-Exupéry — big risk. "Little Prince" — such tiny book, but containing in itself amazing things! Creators of a tape departed from simple retelling and decided to create own history, but kept at the same time the main thing — tried to give the world by the child's eyes!

What is in the animated film and what is not present in the fairy tale. Mother careerist (it is possible to add "obsessed") dreams that her daughter became "good adult", and therefore decides to arrange it in superprestigious academy. The girl for nervousness fails examination, and mother makes the schedule in which the next 50 days of the daughter will be painted on minutes — that nothing distracted her from receipt. But the neighbor — the old pilot who tells the girl a story of the little prince, a story about how it is important to remember childhood miracles interferes with this "plan of life" which is thought up by mother …

Trambo


Heard about "Trambo" for a long time. I love biopics, I love cinema therefore it was naturally very interesting what will turn out at Jay Roach, to which at me quite ambiguous relation: I am positive to "Acquaintance to parents", but here "Austen Pauers" … many darling, but not me. Except them, at this director saw nothing, and these are comedies therefore did not understand whether he can create the sound drama.

From the very beginning of the movie the flow of information about the USSR, about communism fell upon us. Now it is heavy to present how in deeply democratic USA where words it is impossible against freedom to be that whom you want, to tell — at once will condemn, there was such discrimination. But it took place to be. And not sickly.

By the Sea


Angelina Jolie is the emotional personality with very uncommon thinking and attitude. Feeling of objective balance together with the madness shouting to pain — here it is approximately so possible to characterize an orientation of the movie "French riviera". Moreover, the format of giving of idea of the movie which not all will understand is sustained in the gray, oppressing tones which only emphasize an enormous internal message of the actress. Before direct discussion of the movie I want to focus attention of readers on one more advantage: against infinite blockbusters and comics "French riviera" with confidence it is possible to call an island of personal reflections and justified introspection. On it, I am sure, each person with the sensitivity prevailing in character will find for himself the place.

I will begin, perhaps, with a location. The seashore, the lonely and pacified space (it the town where there were events), hotel seemed to me — all this creates the unique atmosphere of hardly noticeable psychological tension. The ideal place for search of answers, outlets, an exit (any) of current situation in life.

Steve Jobs

Steve Jobs — one of the most outstanding personalities as in the history of computer technologies, and in the history in general. He managed to build the whole empire which products literally conquered the whole world, and it is hardly possible not to come across at least one day a week eminent "apples". However whom was their creator? What he was a person? The vision was presented by the cult British director Danny Boyle in the picture "Steve Jobs".

Synopsis to Legendary Steve Jobs walked to go a long way before proving to the whole world that the computer can be a work of art. However what person was Mr. Jobs? We learn through a prism of three most significant presentations of production of the Apple company when Jobs as much as possible revealed before the colleagues, friends and the daughter.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens

Only came from a premiere therefore I will write the review with fresh impressions right now.

In general speaking, "Star wars" is on truth the greatest fantastic saga of all times and the people. On these cult movies not one generation grew. These are movies which found a great number of fans worldwide. Naturally, continuation was waited by all fans and waited for that day when at last show it. This day also came.

At once there is a wish to tell that the cinema very strongly was pleasant to me. I even did not wait for such effect. Many had fears concerning the new movie as at the director's chair not George Lucas, but I was firmly sure that here will be what to look at. Jay Jay Abrams is an excellent director at whom well it turns out to remove a fantasy, here and here he did not pump up, having picked up Lucas's child, he removed excellent continuation which it is really possible to call continuation of "Star wars".

Point Break

"On the roll" is a remake of the movie of 1991 with tremendous Patrick Swayze and unforgettable Keanu Reeves. Creators of the movie took rather risky step, creating a remake, you have to be ready that the new movie will begin to be compared to old. For this reason it is important not to lose face.

The Revenant

One of the most anticipated films among all the motley list of future nominees for Academy Awards in 2016, without exaggeration be called tape Alejandro González Iñárritu, coming out we called "Survivor" that slightly simplifies the true meaning of «The Revenant» in the original. At this time a Mexican director,known for its heart-rending dramas, as well as being Oscar-winning "Birdman", continued to experiment with the same film crew, based on the new movie are quite extensive in all respects the story of a real person - hunter pioneer Hugh Glass, which is contrary to the prevailing conditions, severe injuries and lack of careHe survived. History of survival described in the novel by Michael punk, but relies on a tape Iñárritu has no history or an epilogue, so the main character, it tells only part of a separate time period, when the Glass in 1823, signing a contract for the expedition in the so-called "Hundreds Ashley "went to the sources of the Missouri River, lost somewhere in the wilds of this Yellowstone National Park and the Rocky Mountain region of North America. Developing trapping arrived on the mainland daring Europeans are not particularly pleased the local Indian tribes, so the group of hunters come into regular conflict with the Arikara tribe,in which at least Glass and remains in good health, but changing the way back, gets injured due to the attack-bear grizzly.

The Hateful Eight


Otherwise it is impossible to call Tarantino's creations in any way. How many do not argue, namely he is the most hardworking director. Quentin Tarantino! As it is much told in this name. Already passed to it for half a century, he already made the name which is known by each fan of cinema; and here it was necessary to face during this period of the life to it such problems as the merged scenario, piracy and the conflict with Disney studio.

However, as Leonid Kanevsky speaks: "It already another story altogether". Everything that I can tell — so it to burn in hell with that who merged "the Disgusting Eight" in a network. This film needs to be watched only at movie theater, it is exclusive on the big screen. Believe, it is worth it because great Quentin gets down to business again and does everything with big passion, with broad love, with the rich imagination.
