Scarlett Johasson in the most WTF film of the year. She sucks men from their skin and she doesn't have a pussy.

Verdict: 3/10



wtf wtf wtf wtf
yeah i didn't quite understand why this move was so well received because tbh it was quite slow and the only reaction you could possibly have is "wtf"

Lucy was also fucking terrible so imo it's been a shit movie year from Johanson

What??!

Johansson had a wonderful year, Lucy was a box office success, and possible sequels. Under the skin was suppose to be an experimental film anyway, it got excellent critics which was the main purpose of the movie any way but too wtf for most people.

Not to mention her role in Chef and as Black Widow in Marvel movies.

Language: German, English

Metacritic: 69
Type: Drama

Hannah Arendt, as a Jew trying to defend a Nazi. The whole point of the film is, if you murder people because you're simply following an order or the law, then you should be not guilty of crime against humanity. Well the Jews weren't too happy about that.

Verdict: 6/10



Really, Hannah? Since where is politics so black and white like that?

Not in the same league as Juno, but at least I know the perk of being in the Harry Potter movies. You get to make tons of money by appearing in B movies.

Verdict: 5/10



The chick on the right, is way hotter than Emma Watson!

Type: Documentary

A very documentary that explore the relationship between Ghana government, the oil company Kosmos, investment banks, the citizens of Ghana and the rebels after the discovery of oil field.

Capitalism at it's finest, and may give some level of understanding why Africa is so damn poor. Resource is not always a bless.

Verdict: 8/10

You have to be joking me, how in the world did this documentary, I mean comedy get such good reviews??! Now that's a mystery.

First of all, The Shining does not deserve it's own documentary, second of all, the 'theories' are of a joke right. Fucking cloud position can be used to convey messages in movies? Guess anyone can be a expert in symbolism.

Now I have to watch the Shining.

Verdict: 2/10



Nice floor layout arsehole. Now do one for The Last Emperor.

A doc about a recording studio, I'm not into music, let alone Western music, let alone Western rock music, let alone Western rock music from the 60s..

Muscle Shoals is much better doc in that aspect anyway.

This documentary is very good because even if you don't care about Western music, you'll still appreciate the history, the conflicts and the determination of the people behind all of it.

Beautifully looking documentary about how fucking close we were to get Dune instead of Star Wars. If Jodorowsky didn't fuck up, the entire geek landscape would completely different.

Verdict: 8/10



Star Wars and Dune both look shit apparently.
