Black Cake (2023)
Why so many 10/10??? It's moderately good.
Most of the 10/10 are first-time review titles. They should be moderated... seems suspicious.
I think this is a moderately good show that doesn't blow me away but also doesn't completely miss the mark.
I haven't read the book(s?) so I am not familiar with the story and characters, I don't know if that helps or not to follow the story.
As others have said, the first three episodes are much better than the last three and the middle in-between. Worth a watch if you're out of good series and nothing else to watch.
Cinematography is very good, the younger actors are accomplished but the story is longwinded and episodes are too long.
Dante's Inferno: An Animated Epic (2010)
Fails already on the premise.
I v believe the main plot is highly suspicious. This is a religious sect. A temple knight cannot be betrothed to a woman or hold any vow outside of the order. They are technically monks who have given vows for life.
Once you've given your final vows, you are expected to serve for life and not leave...
Freaks - Du bist eine von uns (2020)
Ok if you have nothing else to do.
A lot of illogical things, like her hitting a guy that go off flying 50 meters... Come on, that force over a small female fist would have 2 side effects: 1. She punches a hole through him 2. Her fist and lower arm disintegrates. If she's invincible then only option 1 would happen. Another illogical thing: she throws a desk at a guy, the desk makes a huge hole in the thick concrete/brick wall. What do you think would break first? The wooden desk or the wall...?
The Quick and the Dead (1995)
Has its ups and downs
The ups: reminds me of old school spagetti westerns. Good cinematography and entertaining. Good gun draw shootouts.
The downs: uninspiring plot, awful ending. All shootouts were good until one battle where suddenly bullets made clean 10cm holes in people. Last shootout was ridiculous. A hole through the chest where the sun can shine through? Stupidest thing I've ever seen and the guy flew and spun through the air from kinetic energy of a small bullet even as it traveled clean through the head!? Up until those two "battles" I enjoyed this piece, if it had continued in same fashion as earlier battles, it could have been so much better.
Tumbbad (2018)
Ok movie, not horror
It's an OK movie if you have 1h45m to waste. It was slightly entertaining. Definitely not "The Best Movie Ever" like some reviewers have stated. Faaaaar from it. Not even top 100 Indian movie. I give it an honest 6 for the cinematography which was the high point. Plot is weak and dialogue uninspired.
