Atomic Habits – Why Small Changes Make a Big Difference On one occasion (this year) I subjected myself to a kind of “test.” And that was not eating refined sugar, i.e., sweets, for a month. My motive was to prove to some people (i.e., clients) that it’s absolutely doable… and it was… and it wasn’t…
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…
Taken 3 “Taken 3” is a victim of the previous part, from which the audience expected a lot (since the first part delighted the audience). If the second part hadn’t happened (which was quite disappointing after the standard the first part set), the third part of Bryan Mills’ adventures would certainly have fared much better…
12 Rules for Life – Jordan Peterson without a filter In my work with people, I occasionally encounter those who often aren’t convinced by what I can tell/point out/explain/ask them. You can see they simply think “it’s not that I don’t believe you, but you’re not (yet) some authority in the field of working with…
Taken 2 Bryan Mills’ life is trying to return to normal after everything that happened in the first film “Taken”… which will certainly require effort. Bryan tries to normalize relationships with his daughter Kim (who’s struggling to pass her driving test, and also has difficulty telling her father she now has a boyfriend) and his…
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…
American Gods Next year it will be exactly 20 years since Neil Gaiman’s American Gods first appeared, a book that very quickly became an instant classic. It swept up every major award you can sweep up in the realms of sci-fi and fantasy (Hugo, Nebula, Locus, Bram Stoker…), and it’s been showered with top ratings…
Convenience Store Woman Uh, you don’t exactly feel indifferent when you finish the novella Convenience Store Woman… you’re not even sure how to position yourself toward the main character. Do you like her, is she endearing, problematic, do you pity her or try to understand her… but that’s precisely the point of this book, and…
