This 5-minute advert for a phone is actually better than most horror films. TRAINWRECK ★★☆☆☆
What a disappointment. Predictable, conventional and conservative. Contrast the likes of PREGGOLAND or YOUNG ADULT. Director Anton Corbijn is coming off a real creative high with A MOST WANTED MAN, can he continue that trajectory? THE FATAL ENCOUNTER ★★★★☆
An expertly made court intrigue thriller. ROME meets CURSE OF THE GOLDEN FLOWER. THE MOTHERF**KER WITH THE HAT [theatre] ★★★★★
Misanthropy tempered by believable arcs. Foul-mouthed, yet swearing non-gratingly deployed. THE MAN FROM UNCLE ★★☆☆☆
A film with no second gear. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/the-man-from-uncle.html HWAYI: A MONSTER BOY ★★★★½
Worth the 10 year wait, from the director of SAVE THE GREEN PLANET!. A family crime thriller as merciless as ANIMAL KINGDOM. |

See the drop down to the right of the Home tab. Enjoy. The vital ambitions of art and entertainment: - Perceptiveness - Illumination - The unexpected - Innovation Brains and soul are key; but adrenaline junkies do not fret, there is also much love for an experience that delivers a sucker-punch to the guts via stunningly delivered thrills. Noun, “filmaluation”: The evaluation of a film Verb, "to filmaluate”: To evaluate a film I am well aware how difficult it is to make a film, put on a stage play, create a television show, write a novel, let alone make something of note. (That appreciation doesn’t stop me from having high standards though.) This online magazine is edited by Hemanth Kissoon. Filmaluation is owned by Filmaluation Limited (Company number 8549302.
