  1. My rating 9/10

    Very exciting and as physically realistic as possible. It takes me seriously as a viewer and has great ideas. Ryan Gosling is always fun to watch.

  2. My rating 6/10

    There is really nothing in this film that works particularly well. The story feels trivial, lacks structure, and is basically about nothing. Everything is predictable. There are only one or two good ideas, and it keeps chewing on them over and over. It does look nice, though.

  3. My rating 8/10

    A proper beatdown with great visuals and even a pretty decent story. 8/10.

  4. My rating 9/10

    I think this is a really great and exciting exploration of what it means to accept your partner’s quirks and flaws and find your way together. It is also honest about how difficult and unfair that can sometimes be.

  5. My rating 9/10

    I like blues and vampires. This brings both together and gives the characters plenty of time before things really kick off. Great.

  6. My rating 10/10

    One of the best Pixar films ever. Great ideas, hilarious, and Heidi Klum in her best role.

  7. It's quite impressive to see that an LLM may be intelligent enough to notice when it is being tested. That also means it can react in manipulative ways.

  8. My rating 8/10

    Wonderfully entertaining and gory uprising against your own boss. Some deep logic holes and fun twists.

  9. Barbarism does not begin with the first shot; it begins where people are reduced to numbers in a statistic, where compassion gives way to bookkeeping and conscience to hollow obedience.

    This line is truly the most important one in Hape Kerkeling's speech marking the 81st anniversary of the liberation of Buchenwald concentration camp. Because you can feel it. In any kind of bureaucracy.

  10. Watching this video really makes you understand what it means to travel hundreds of thousands of kilometers around the Moon in a spacecraft and then make it back home.
