Mary (I) (2019)

Could have been SO MUCH better

[3/10 · 31 July 2023]

This horror movie could have been so much better if not for all the flaws and bad script/bad writing in the details. And especially the ending could have been better. Just for once I would like to see a horror movie where all the loose ends gets to unfold and are entangled and the whole world gets to know of the phenomenon. Then the world are left to handle the darkness and we get to see how/if the evil is defeated by the cooperation from the whole society. Just for once plz. So tired of seeing the same old copy paste unoriginal concept horror movies over and over again. Bad writing with all too obvious plot wholes is an insult to the viewer's intelligence..

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023)

Decent Indy - but prob the worst of them. Still good enough though.

[6/10 · 4 July 2023]

Pure fun and entertainment and well worth the theater ticket! Also, the movie has that high speed rollercoaster pace we like in many of the other Indiana Jones movies ..but I must say, in 90% of the movie that obnoxious Helena character drags down the overall feel of the movie (right until the end when she becomes slightly less repelling). Maybe the character could have worked better with another actress (?) but Phoebe Waller-Bridge didn't really pulled it off ..in my opinion. Maybe others liked her. But I sure didn't. Not in this role anyway. Also. Most of the scenes the CGI on young Harrison Ford worked really good - but in some scenes not so much. But hey - it is a good movie and this is the last piece of true Indy - an end of an era. Maybe there will be more Indy movies in the future -but surely never the same without Harrison Ford!

6 Underground (2019)

So underrated Bay Movie!!

[10/10 · 31 October 2022]

So underrated Bay Movie. I really don't get it - it has everything. Action, story, character development, retaliation, sex, smartness, lines, good acting, amazing visual fx etc etc. And, it is really different. In a good way. And really deserves a sequel - despite what som pretentious jerks are saying. 6 underground is way to good to not get a sequel! The characters in the first movie deserves another ride! They are to good to be wasted on only one movie.

And yeah - the whole cast is wonderful. And it is also pretty funny full of witty lines and top class CGI and action. I am pretty sure this movie will grow and become more appreciated over the coming years. But then it is too late for a sequel. So it has to be done soon. I am pretty sure the IMDb rating will rise when people rewatch it years later or a new younger audience discover it. 6.1/10 is really a joke!

Obi-Wan Kenobi (2022)

Insult to our intelligence

[2/10 · 23 June 2022]

Poor story and even worse script - and with lines and scenes as thought out of a five year old. And a plot full of holes. It's so many things that doesn't make sense. Small things, big things. So many inconsistencies that is just an insult to the viewers intelligence. Great scenery sometimes though. But that doesn't really weigh up for the bad writing. But I am a grown up - maybe this is aimed for children. But even so. They deserve better.

Ghost in the Shell (2017)

This is not a 6.3 movie - it's at least a 7.8 movie.

[10/10 · 5 April 2022]

This movie is way better than the average imdb score of 6.3!! Visually it's stunning. And the story is also very good with interesting characters and a nice pace to it. Hard to see all the hatred and all the "1s" given. It's just madness. Haven't had time to see this until now and it is the best movie I have seen in a very long time. Highly recommend it!

The Change-Up (2011)

Deserves so much higher rating than 6.3/10

[10/10 · 18 February 2022]

This is one of the funniest comedies (alongside The Hangover) to have come out the last decade. Both Bateman and Reynolds are excellent and naturally funny. Perfect comic chemistry between the two. I also love that movie has a general warm feelgood sense to it!

Candyman (2021)

How can this title average 5.9 ?? Way to high for this bad bad movie !!

[1/10 · 20 December 2021]

I can't wrap my head around how this awful awful movie can average a 5.9 score?? The only explanation I can imagine is that this left wing political correct production organized bots to crank the score up. Pathetic in that case.

The Purge (2018–2019)

Political series that could have been so much better

[3/10 · 20 November 2020]

Extreme left wing over the top propaganda - completely ridiculous story as written by children. And all the over the top characters with sterotypes of that all white men is evil except if he is a working class hero working for the union, well jeez - it is like the whole series is funded by an extreme leftist movement. Could have been so much better. 😞

Enemy of the State (1998)

One of the best thrillers ever made and very much ahead of its time.

[10/10 · 5 September 2020]

This movie was released 1998 and then got critique that is was not that realistic. Now 22 years later we know that this is no science fiction at all. Unfortunately. The movie has stood the the test of time really well - especially since being made 22-23 years ago! Very underrated! Should be way over 8.5 - at least!

Ha ett underbart liv (1992)

Best Kjell Bergqvist to this date ^^

[10/10 · 19 February 2011]

HIGHLY UNDERRATED - 5.2/10 IS A JOKE!!

Wonderful comedy (and romance) about a young Swedish guy doing his military service in the north of Sweden while drifting apart from his girlfriend back home in Stockholm! He stumbles in to a girl that later helps him getting back to Stockholm so he can solve some issues/problems with his girlfriend - and of course an attraction between the two is unavoidable..

The characters develops an amazing chemistry and they all goes to the to heart of the viewers - overall the characters feels very genuine and original and the movie heartwarming! I'll give it a 10/10 cause of the pure entertainment you get out from it!
