The Witcher (Season 2) “Hmmm…” – Geralt In mid-December last year (I could have just written “a few weeks ago,” right?), Netflix “dropped” the second season with new adventures of our buff, white-haired slayer of creatures from Slavic mythology. 😀 As you know, although I’m familiar with both the literary source material (as well…
Goldfinger “Shaken, not stirred” James Bond If “Dr. No” introduced us to James Bond’s adventures, and “From Russia with Love” made it clear to us that J.B. is a serious player and that the film industry should pay close attention to this (then) new golden goose, “Goldfinger” set some standards and guidelines that future…
From Russia with Love Ahhhhhh, “From Russia with Love”… now things are getting more interesting. This is one of my favorite films, not just when it comes to J.B.’s adventures, but generally. As for the ranking of James Bond films, this film is in my “top 5,” and maybe even in “top 3″… and it’s…
Dr.No Writing about James Bond outside the context of films would be a pretty thankless job (or rather would require a special text). So I wouldn’t want to waste much space here. I don’t believe anyone expected that the film “Dr. No,” which even for that era (the sixties) was made quite cheaply, would spawn…
The Wolf of Wall Street (movie) Now this is a different story… I’m guessing you remember my review of the book The Wolf of Wall Street. A perfectly solid book, quite educational in many ways. Now the question is: can the film be better than the book? My answer is — yes. In this case,…
Mulan It wasn’t easy for Disney when they decided to make a live-action version of “Mulan.” Various controversies followed the film (the absence of Mulan’s love interest Li Shang thanks to the #MeToo movement, the lead actress’ statements about the police situation in Hong Kong, filming in Xinjiang province, as well as the lack of…
Altered Carbon (Season 2) Okay… although my reviews are just my personal experiences and I don’t pay much attention to other people’s ratings, I have to admit I was surprised by some people’s initial (negative) impressions of the second season of “Altered Carbon,” so I somehow wanted to separate these two seasons, especially since the…
Altered Carbon Would you really like to be immortal? To live for several hundred years, to see what the future holds? To travel to different places (planets), do all sorts of things, meet all kinds of people? Sounds interesting? But what if I told you that the price of your immortality is that you won’t…
Ah, “The Witcher”… Witcher Geralt and I have known each other for a long time. Our friendship has lasted for over 10 years. I have followed him on his adventures through all eight books (two collections of short stories and six novels… I own them all, including the famous medallion 😁) and three video…
Uh, the situation is not easy either for the film we’re discussing today or for me. How to stay objective in a review of a film from which you have great expectations, simply because it’s made based on one of your favorite books? But, what must be done, is not hard. 🙂 Let’s…
