SPL 2: A TIME FOR CONSEQUENCES ★★★★½
Rivals 'John Wick' for martial arts flick of the year. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/spl-2-a-time-for-consequences.html An unusual mixture of sweet story and dread tone, past trauma and comic book backdrop. Needed another gear. THE BRIDGE [season 2] ★★★★★
Builds on the previous series. That ending, what a doozy. Reminds of the pessimism of SEVEN. Out to own today: Minions
EQUALS ★★☆☆☆
Sci-fi dystopia starring Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult. Has the emotional and intellectual depth of a perfume advert. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/equals.html Rescue drama from the director of LARS AND THE REAL GIRL. |

Filmaluation is dedicated to arts culture, with a particular focus on film. I care about intelligence, quality and entertainment. Need some movie and TV show recommendations? 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.
