Venom: Let There Be Carnage (2021)

Eddie Brock becomes involved in news about a serial killer who ends up infected by Venom when the journalist visits him, thus giving birth to Carnage.

'Venom: Let There Be Carnage' is a continuation of Venom's story from the first film, still starring Tom Hardy, but under the direction of Andy Serkis this time. The film remains entertaining, but our expectations are somehow deflated, especially due to the presence of Woddy Harrelson, which you almost forget was added to the cast. And Naomie Harris's character could have been better exploited.

Regia:  Andy Serkis      

Cu: Tom Hardy, Woody Harrelson, Michelle Williams, Naomie Harris

Rating: 7/10

Street Kings (2008)

Viata unui politist blazat ce adesea ia justitia in propriile maini este data peste cap dupa ce este implicat in moartea unui coleg in circumstante dubioase.

Un film politist ce nu a primit prea multe vorbe de lauda. Cu anti-eroi mai credibili decat personajele din filmele de gen de duzina, Street Kings e mai bine facut decat reputatia sa sustine. Keanu Reeves reuseste sa impresioneze dand viata unui personaj mai putin scrupulos decat ne-a obisnuit. Gauri in intriga s-au mai vazut, dar filmul are un aer proaspat si original in ciuda neajunsurilor si ofera o portie sanatoasa de entertainment. 

Regia:  David Ayer  

Cu: Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker, Hugh Laurie, Chris Evans, Jay Mohr,  Cedric the Entertainer, Terry Crews, Naomie Harris, John Corbett, Amaury Nolasco

Rating: 8/10

Rampage (2018)

Un patogen ce editeaza genomul animalelor dandu-le trasaturi periculoase este eliberat in apropierea unui sanctuar pentru animale salbatice.

Un film cu o intriga ridicola de la care stii bine dinainte la ce sa te astepti, ceea ce este si ceea ce producatorii au intentionat. Amatorii de blockbustere distractive bazate pe fapte stiintifice exagerate si indivizi diferiti de oamenii de zi cu zi au avut parte de ce au dorit si au transformat filmul intr-unul de succes.

Regia:  Brad Peyton   

Cu: Dwayne Johnson, Naomie Harris, Malin Akerman, Jeffrey Dean Morgan

Rating: 6/10
