Blink Twice (2024)

Two young women manage to sneak into a popular millionaire's party, which results in unexpected events.

'Blink Twice' is an unexpected thriller, primarily surprising by its welcome abundance of style without falling into the frequent mistake of style-over-content. Zoe Kravitz is a completely unexpected natural talent, the film being so well made that it easily shuts down anyone who could have any arguments against certain weaker elements of the plot/resolution. A pleasure to watch, despite the unpleasant elements it depicts.

Director: Zoë Kravitz   

With: Naomi Ackie, Channing Tatum, Alia Shawkat, Adria Arjona, Christian Slater, Simon Rex, Haley Joel Osment, Kyle MacLachlan, Geena Davis

Rating: 9/10

Ava (2020)

Ava e un asasin foarte priceput dar dupa o slujba ratata banuieste ca sefii vor sa o elimine.

Ava e un film cu spioni si asasini ce arata foarte bine pe hartie, mai ales cu cast-ul foarte reusit. Scenele de lupta sunt bine facute dar putine, caci din pacate filmul incearca prea multe, uitand sa lege fiecare fir narativ cumva mai fluid si interesant de ideea principala si anume ca: Ava este un film cu asasini. Desi fragmentat, unele fragmente individuale isi au farmecul si calitatea lor, problema apare cand toate se intampla in cadrul aceluiasi film.

Regia:  Tate Taylor    

Cu: Jessica Chastain, John Malkovich, Common, Geena Davis, Colin Farrell
