Khozhdenie po mukam (2017)
Cannot better AttyTude0's summary "Too artsy fartsy"!
I love Russia & Russian history, BUT I did not manage to finish the first episode. I could not connect with any of the highbrow, affected characters, women or men who seemed to revel in narcissist, intellectual onanism. No comparison to War & Peace, Crime & Punishment or Doctor Zhivago!
Gerald's Game (2017)
Not that bad
My wife & I started watching this movie yesterday. When the hallucinations started to appear, we thought, "Oh no! Not another one" after watching 'Hypersomnia' & 'Animas'." We stopped watching. After reading the IMDb reviews, we had second thoughts & today we finished watching the film. The acting was pretty good. And the traumatic childhood experiences of the heroine were harrowing. The end game seemed somewhat 'constructed'. Tempted to award 8 points. Narrowly missed, so it will be 7 Points.
Ánimas (2018)
Waste of Time
A film directed by a psychiatrist and only suited for schizophrenics.
Tabula Rasa (2017)
Great, BAR THE ...
... FINAL EPISODE!
The pace & plot of the final episode were breathtaking alright. It was only after watching it, the apparent sloppy inconsistencies came creeping up on me:
1a) ONE in particular: How can a man weakened by the self-amputation of a hand, the loss of blood, manage to push up a trapdoor with a heavy sofa perched on it?
1b) Having accomplished this superhuman effort, would anyone bother to arrange everything as it was before the violent break-out, especially when there was no apparent motive for doing so?
This was a let-down on behalf of the screenwriters!
