Navalny (2022)
Sad facts of today's reality
Russia is not ready for this man. The vast majority of the Russians still support Putin - some because they are scared, some because they are manipulated, some because they are just dumb and ignorant! How can you explain that families of 200.000 dead soldiers stay silent in times like these?
It's so sad that as I watched the story unfold, I saw them getting so excited that they are proving to the world what Putin is doing, but I realized that the whole world knew already and yet they all did nothing to stop that lunatic from getting more and more powerful. Even today countries are still finding ways to avoid Russian sanctions so the ugly truth is that no one really cares...
The Matrix Resurrections (2021)
Similar to GoT last season
The first Matrix movie is the best sci-fi movie ever made, in my opinion.
Second and third are decent sequels
This last one, however, is really really bad and with a lot of plot holes. When a script is bad, nothing can save a movie. Acting is "not great not terrible", FX are worse than 2 and 3 which were made almost 20 years ago!
Worth watching only if you can take some disappointment for the sake of seeing your favorite characters again 20 years later.
Colony (2016)
Canceled show
Before you watch a single episode, note that this show was canceled and that it does not have an ending, basically you feel like you quit watching in the middle of an episode. So if you like closure from a show, don't watch it.
Otherwise it's the best sci-fi series on Netflix at this point in time (November 2021) and I have watched all of them!
The characters are so well constructed and we'll played that at times you end up believing that the bad guy is not actually a bad guy... Then you regret thinking it for a few more episodes, then you go back to the idea. And so on. You get bits of information just like you would in real life, which is why this show is so great: if the baseline would be true than it would probably play out just like in the show. Plot holes are little to none, which is very rare for a sci-fi movie!
Another Life (2019)
Nice SciFi
I don't understand the negative reviews! It is unlikely that a drama queen would be member of a space ship crew, but it's OK to have a hairy ape co-pilot with Harrison Ford. So yeah, star wars was so much more believable, sure.
If you are looking for believable then do not go for Sci fi movies.
Othirewise, the series is very intense, packed with action and keeps you wanting to watch more and more. I liked it a lot more than many other sci-fi series.
Colectiv (2019)
No Oscar = must watch
You should watch this especially because it did not get any Oscars! Seeing what movies get Oscars lately, I think that this should be the appropriate criteria: watch if no Oscars granted.
The drama is real, the struggle with corruption is real, the fire was real and the dead also real! When you watch this, you cannot believe everything you are seeing was real, you somehow want to believe that at least parts of it are made up! No, they are not and corruption does kill!
The end will leave you stunned, petrified and thinking how this society, any society, could be so ignorant!
Watch it, it will change a part of you!
Black Mirror: The National Anthem (2011)
1 star is too much for this
I want my 45 minutes back!
Whoever says "you watched till the end and that proves the whole story of the film" is an idiot. Everyone watches the first episode of a series till the end. I was hoping for something, anything, in the last 5 minutes at least... Nope, nothing!
This episode's plot was probably written by a 12 year old.
If you like "deep, meaningful films about human nature" you may give it a chance, but don't expect any Good Will Hunting kind of stuff out of this.
