I am very sorry for people who watched this in the cinema. Even being able to regulate the sound for specific scenes, it seemed like a nuisance. Either you get ear-blasted or miss conversation, can't really seem to enjoy the movie unless you watch it with subtitles on low volume.
A good Nolan example for me where music and sound effects emphasize or even set the mood is The Dark Knight. This movie just tried to do the same with pure volume it seems.

Insomnia
(2018)
Better than expected, hoping for season 2
17 December 2018
The trailer for this one almost discouraged me from watching. I'm glad I gave it a shot for 1-2 episodes, cause it turned out to be one of those shows that keeps you hooked and makes you finish it in one go.
The story shines through character development, some things go as you'd expect, others take you by surprise. The acting was partially what amazed me the most. Some actors just felt very authentic in their roles, while others seemed out of place.
Nonetheless, highly recommended if you don't get hung up on details.

Tekken: Kazuya's Revenge
(2014)
Big Disappointment
15 August 2014
If you've seen the first Tekken movie - whether you liked it or not - and expect a similar content, you will be disappointed. This movie felt like a waste for over 90% of its runtime and comes nowhere near to the first Tekken movie.
It seems like a low-budget movie. Don't get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with that, sometimes even the opposite. After finishing this movie it felt like I was stuck for ages in slow motion visions of the past. Half of the whole movie seemed to be filled with these probably due to alck of content, so try not to fall asleep if you take upon the challenge of watching it. Other than that there's a few good fight scenes (not the first ones) but way too few to make any difference and rescue the foreseeable and almost non-existent plot.
Overall an anticlimactic experience, best suggested to be ignored or watched while being pre-occupied. If you like to get papers done, or study with some background-noise, this might be the right movie for you.
