Blue Eye Samurai What happens when you combine titles like “Yentl,” “Kill Bill,” “John Wick,” “Game of Thrones,” “Mulan” and “The Witcher,” John Woo and Tarantino, and wrap it in the wafer of medieval Japan and phenomenal animation? You get a real juicy cake with a base of cookies, chocolate and vanilla filling into which…
A Man Called Ove From the moment I (finally) picked up the book, I firmly decided I would take a negative stance toward Ove. That is, not a negative attitude toward the novel “A Man Called Ove,” but toward the main hero himself. The reason is simple. I didn’t want to allow myself to (emotionally)…
I openly admit – I like the film version of “Constantine” with Keanu Reeves in the lead role. To me, brother Keanu is a cool guy and a good actor (he was even before all this recent craze, which I’ve dubbed “Keanumania”). I can always watch his movies. But again, many criticized that his…
Hitch “Basic principles: no woman wakes up saying ‘God, I hope I don’t get swept off my feet today!’ Now, she might say ‘This is not a good time for me,’ or something like ‘I’m really into my career right now,’ and my personal favorite, ‘I’m focusing on me.’ You believe that? Neither does she….
Cyberpunk Edgerunners “Cyberpunk Edgerunners” (at least I had that impression) just suddenly appeared on Netflix. If there was any hype around its announcement, I missed it. However, this isn’t bad news. Just as it unexpectedly appeared, it also (somewhat unexpectedly) won the sympathy of audiences and film critics. The series is set in the world…
I hold a great deal of respect for Robin Sharma. I truly believe that there is power in his words and that he is not (nor will he ever be) just another in the series of those who write generic texts in motivational books. Starting with “The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari”, Robin has…
The Graveyard Book Neil Gaiman is always a welcome guest on this blog. So far we’ve hung out with him through his classic “American Gods” and the incredibly fun “Norse Mythology.” But now we’re going to, for a change, dive into an unusually fairy-tale-like (and slightly twisted) world… whose plot mostly takes place in a…
The Hard Thing About Hard Things “I ask my children: what is the difference between a hero and a coward? There is no difference. It’s only what they do that differs. They both feel the same. They’re both scared of losing their lives or getting seriously injured. The coward refuses to face the inevitable. The…
The Art of Thinking Clearly “What people are best at is interpreting new information so that their prior conclusions remain intact” – Warren Buffett “The Art of Thinking Clearly (52 Thinking Errors You’d Better Leave to Others)” is a truly interesting book that holds your attention from the very beginning. The reason is simple….
Birds of Prey Sometimes I wonder what’s really going on with the people who make DC movies, what goes through their heads… Constant creative conflicts, changing actors due to financial/scheduling/personal disagreements, a large number of cut scenes from movies that apparently change the very dimensions of the films (Snyder’s director’s cut version of “Batman vs…
