Umma (2022)

Amanda lives with her daughter, isolated on a farm where she breeds bees, but her life takes an unexpected turn after she receives her mother's remains.

'Umma' is a horror film with Korean origins. The plot has some merit and sense, but the execution of the film leaves much to be desired and expectations are disappointed, even with the presence of Sandra Oh, who usually improves anything.

Director:  Iris K. Shim   

With: Sandra Oh, Fivel Stewart, Dermot Mulroney, Odeya Rush

Rating: 6/10

Killing Eve (2018–2022)

Eve's life, a security agent at MI5, changes forever when she uncovers the activities of the assassin Villanelle.

'Killing Eve' is a thriller type series, with an investigative theme but also full of humor and cynicism. It has an original style, unusual for the genre, which goes perfectly in the atypical context of the life of a spy/assassin, at least on-screen. The similarity in style with Fleabag that comes to one's mind from time to time, especially due to the dialogue, is not accidental considering that the current series was created by the same mind, namely Phoebe Waller-Bridge's.

Director:  Damon Thomas and others   

Production:  BBC America  

Creator:  Phoebe Waller-Bridge   

Duration:  4 seasons of 8 episodes (42 minutes each)

With: Jodie Comer, Sandra Oh, Fiona Shaw, Kim Bodnia, Harriet Walter, Gemma Whelan

Rating: 9/10
