Enola Holmes (2020)

Enola Holmes, Sherlock's sister, begins a very personal investigation when her mother disappears.

"Enola Holmes" is an adventure and crime film, watered down for a younger and innocent audience. Without being anything special, the film is cute but its most impressive asset is the cast.

Director:  Harry Bradbeer  
With: Millie Bobby Brown, Henry Cavill, Sam Claflin, Helena Bonham Carter

Rating: 7/10

The Vast of Night (2019)

A telephone operator and a radio operator begin to investigate local events after they manage to catch a series of strange noises through an unusual radio frequency.

'The Vast of Night' is a sci-fi film temporally set in the 50s, in a context that appears very authentic, in a culture obsessed with a third world war, alien invasions and government conspiracies. With a mini-homage to Orson Welles' 'War Of The Worlds' radio show (the radio station is called WOTW), this film is adept at subtly highlighting the panic, suspense and mystery needed to keep the viewer tensing.

Director:  Andrew Patterson   
With: Sierra McCormick, Jake Horowitz, Gail Cronauer, Bruce Davis

Bloodshot (2020)

Ray, a soldier killed along with his wife, is reanimated using nano technologies and embarks on a mission of revenge. 

Bloodshot is an action film based on comic books. The action is decent, Vin Diesel has the usual presence, and a bit of twist is the additional element it needed. Of course, it's a bit predictable, but not to an exaggerated extent. 

Regia:  Dave Wilson   
Cu: Vin Diesel, Eiza González, Sam Heughan, Toby Kebbell

Rating: 7/10
