Mid90s (2018)

The 90ies vibe

[8/10 · 17 August 2022]

The movie brings you to a scene in the 90ies. A simple story with a few sharp edges like the mean brother and a jealous friend.

Not the best plot but a feelgood movie with a great 90ies vibe.

Age of Samurai: Battle for Japan (2021– )

The facinating history of 16th century samurai

[8/10 · 28 March 2021]

The story starts with a cruel conqueror who wants to rule all of Japan. It unfolds further in the intrigues and strategic genius of military leaders to end with the dawn of peace.

Who is going to make this into TV-serie that challenges Game of Thrones?

Home (XVI) (2016)

A razor sharp analysis of the interactions between adults and youth

[8/10 · 19 April 2020]

Besides the strong and hard story I recognized the way the teenagers in this movie spent their time and interacted with each other living in their own world. The same with how the parents and teachers try their best and give them advice with all the best intentions. But this advice doesn't match with the world of the youngsters because of the lack of communication. People that can't talk and people that can't listen.

War of the Worlds (2019– )

Minimalistic and thrilling

[8/10 · 20 November 2019]

A very minimalistic serie without big fights or monsters but thrilling non the less. The characters have depth and their stories they carry with them. No Marvel-s**t-storm but real people trying to survive a post-apocaliptic world
