Enola Holmes (2020)

"This is what you would expect to see if 'Mein Kampf' had a Nickelodeon adaptation." -  Mareșalul Ion Antonescu





IMDb: 6,5

IMDb: 6,5
Personal7
"Besides this movie, only Shaggy has ever given me such blue balls before." - Velma

Love (2015)
IMDb: 6,1
Personal7
"Cinematically, the best porn I've ever watched. Pornographically, Gaspar Noé can learn a thing or two from the Czech guy from Public Agent" - Mihai Petre




Sausage Party (2016)
IMDb: 6,1
Personal7
Culinarily, the best porn I've ever seen. Pornographically, the sausage is undercooked in a nonchalant manner. Now seriously, it's funny when you're 16 and I'm scared to re-watch it as a grown-man. I'm afraid I'll still find it funny." - chef Cătălin Scărlătescu



IMDb: 6,9
Personal7
"This is 'Lumea e a mea' but less Romanian. Therefore it might make you feel less suicidal" - Oana Zăvoranu





IMDb: 5,8

Hercules (2014)
IMDb: 6
Personal7
"The Rock as a Hercules. Who would've thought. I always knew he was a versatile actor. This is clearly a more complex role than some buffed guy fighting in a forest." - Muriel from Courage the Cowardly Dog



The Queen of Spades: The Dark Rite (2015)
IMDb: 5,5
Personal7
"I didn't know what to expect when watching a Russian horror movie. It was not horrible, although I was hoping for something like Lenin's corpse getting reanimated by the Chernobyl explosion and communism prevailing. That would have been way scarier." - Dan Barna


The Meg (2018)
IMDb: 5,8
Personal7
"When will the film industry realise adding Jason Statham to Jaws doesn't solve all the other problems?" - Mircea Baniciu

Set It Up (2018)

Alice Through the Looking Glass (2016)
IMDb: 6,2
Personal7

Inferno (2016)
IMDb: 6,2
Personal7

The Silence of The Lambs (1991)
IMDb: 8,6
Personal7,5
"I want so hard to rate it higher but besides the exceptional acting of Anthony Hopkins the plot is so flawed that it's hard to watch and take it seriously at times." - Emil Boc




The Revenant (2015)
IMDb: 8
Personal7,5
"In all honesty, Leo could have won an Oscar with a better movie. I fell asleep two times trying to finish it, When I did finish it I found it to be a bit overrated." - Mihăiță din Berceni




127 Hours (2010)
IMDb: 7,6
Personal7,5
"Not an overly-pretentious subject but James Franco is handling the situation quite well. Get it? You know, <<handling>>?" - Mihai Trăistariu




An Education (2009)
IMDb: 7,3
Personal7,5
"An artistic preview of the patriarchal society of the 1960s. Initiation is a game for two but is lead by older men. Take that however you want." - Oana Lis




Spider-Man (2002)
IMDb: 7,4
Personal7,5
"Mostly nostalgic about it but still an exciting watch. A classic." - George Florescu





The Mummy (2017)
IMDb: 5,4
Personal7,5
"Okay, the CGI was crap, but at least it had Tom Cruise and some weird necrophiliac vibes. I feel like people are had too much expectations considering the homonymous creation - and rightly so, but it should be watched as a standalone title." - Mircea Dinescu



American Psycho (2000)
IMDb: 7,6
Personal7,5
"This shit's reminding me to go get checked haha. Now seriously, I hate the amount of teenagers who glorify the mental illness presented as a good quality. Fucking edgy kids." - Marian Oprișan

IMDb: 7,5
Personal7,5
"Oh wow, they made 'Castlevania' into a real thing!" - Vlad Țepeș 






Call Me by Your Name (2017)
IMDb: 7,9
Personal7,5 
"I don't hate gays but I don't particularly enjoy watching gay men being intimate. This is my opinion as a straight married for the third time conservationist. Please don't cancel me, the movie is not my style - the aesthetics are the only thing that wows me in this film." - Mihail Neamțu


A Texas Funeral (1999)
IMDb: 6,3
Personal7,5
"Funerals have always been weird, especially back in the 60s." - Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej





Sinister (2012)
IMDb: 6,8
Personal7,5

Now You See Me 2 (2016)
IMDb: 6,5
Personal7,5

Assassin's Creed (2016)
IMDb: 5,7
Personal7,5

Ted (2012)
IMDb: 6,9
Personal7,5 
"Damn was this funnier when I was 13? I'm not saying it didn't have its good jokes and absurd situations but I feel like it underachieved considering such a fruitful premise." - Octavian Popescu



La fille inconnue (2016)
IMDb: 6,5
Personal7,5
"I guess this movie is one of the reasons I don't usually consume indie projects. I think shooting a slow paced picture is a very distinguished craft, therefore not everyone can master it." - Victor Ponta



Minority Report (2002)
IMDb: 7,7
Personal7,5
"I don't know why I find this movie so strange. It portrays an interesting philosophical dilemma but in a very unconvincing dystopian future. There are chances of dystopia, yes, but I'm sure it won't look like that" - Veronica Micle



Priceless (2006)
IMDb: 7
Personal7,5
"Our teacher put it on for her class a few years ago back in high school. Honestly, I was glad we would skip the class but it ended up to be a wholesome one." - George Stanciu




World War Z (2013)
IMDb: 7
Personal7,5
"One of the underwhelming productions in which Brad Pitt took part. Such a waste of talent." - Cezar Petrescu





The Matrix (1999)
IMDb: 8,7
Personal7,5
"I don't get the hype around this movie. It's based on an over-regurgitated philosophical concept and it only appeals to the public due to the charisma of Keanu." - Sf. Apostol Pavel




Don't Come Back from the Moon (2017)
IMDb: 5,1
Personal7,5
"Well, if my father was James Franco I wouldn't want him to come back from the moon. The man would straight up steal my teenage girlfriend." - Wayne Bridge




Ad Astra (2019)
IMDb: 7
Personal7,5
"Another Brad Pitt movie I don't recommend watching. It gets a bit emotional at some point but it's mediocre if I leave my bias aside." - OG Eastbull




Saving Face (2004)
IMDb: 7,4
Personal7,5
"This movie inspired me to come out of the closet." - some kid in Ikea





Don't Look Up (2021)
IMDb: 7,3
Personal7,5
"It was not that bad. I laughed at some jokes. People seem to overrate it based on the cast and the fact that it criticizes American society in a pretty common way. But let's be honest, there's nothing new under the sun shown. Some of the takes are straight up boomeresque. It wasn't catastrophic although the magnitude of the actors and the reputation of the director (the guy behind "Vice" and "The Big Short") raise the expectations too much. It's at least watchable, I'm not going to shit on it." -  Nicolae Bălcescu


Blade Runner (2017)
IMDb: 8
Personal7,5
"Apart from the magnificent visuals, this film has been very underwhelming from start to finish. We all know Villenueve is a slow-pace enjoyer but this is not well done. It was straight up boring and didn't really produced any intense emotions. Sorry." - Iasmin Latovlevici


Taxi Driver (1976)
IMDb: 8,2
Personal7,5
"In our country we have a saying, and please excuse my triviality: <<A woman can have the bottom of a porn actress but if she farts I'm gonna lose my erection.>> It is not a real saying it's actually my words but you simply cannot destroy a slow burn psychological approach with cheap western level of shooting as in Sergiu Nicolaescu movies. Apart from that, a very influential creation, ahead of its time." - Maurice Munteanu

Poseidon (2006)
IMDb: 5,6
Personal7,5
"I have no idea why the ratings for this one are so low. I mean, no sequel is better than the original, but to be honest Titanic raised the bar too high." - quote fom Nicolae Guță' s 'Căpitanu'




Lucy (2014)
IMDb: 6,4
Personal

"Nice boobs, Scarlett. Other than Morgan Freeman's notorious question, no other particular scene comes to mind" - Loren Loghin 





The Da Vinci Code (2006)
IMDb: 6,6
Personal7,5
"This is the kind of movie you expect to see on Pro TV. One that is not particularly successful, but doesn't create any real discomfort." - Nicușor Ceaușescu




Acasă la tata (2015)
IMDb: 6,6
Personal
7,5
"I wonder if foreign people watch this Romanian dramas and think to themselves. Nah, this atmosphere is too sad to be true. Nope, that's authentic. It's the Romanian style." - Dan Puric




V for Vendetta (2005)
IMDb: 8,2
Personal8
"Overthrowing is one of the few universal human practices. Power shifting is such a common phenomena, we've been doing it for ages! For every fallen dictator, there has been another to take the place, for every king, another. People seek firstly saviours and secondly political changes." - Nicolae Ceaușescu


Gone Girl (2014)
IMDb: 8,1
Personal8
"Basically Ben Affleck being good at acting and destroying marriages. He's so committed to the role of being a bad husband he's done it in real life as well" - Ilie Năstase




Pompeii (2014)
IMDb: 5,5
Personal8
"The only bad thing about this movie is the fact that it's carrying all the romantic drama c

lichés

 there are. Otherwise, good visual effects and decent acting from John Snow"
 - Gabriela Firea



The Butterfly Effect (2004)
IMDb: 7,7
Personal8
"Ashton Kutcher has the following reasons to be in this movie: 1) his acting skills are perfect for portraying a temporal concept. 2) chaos dictates the ways in our universe. 1/2) these are two and a half reasons." - Perry Ornitorincul



Nocturnal Animals (2016)
IMDb: 7,5
Personal8
"This is John Wick wife and children edition. People can easily be driven by vengeance and in cinematography, avenging deaths is a key to success. Good acting by Jake Gylenhall and a more than decent adaptation based on the book." - Cristian Cioacă



Split (2016)
IMDb: 7,3
Personal8
"This review was officially written by Patricia." - Dinu Patriciu






One Step Behind the Seraphim (2017)

Mai întâi, iubirea Sa milosivă copleșește dreptatea Sa, dar dreptatea Sa se arată atunci când El dorește îndreptarea oamenilor, folosind uneori și medicamente amare, nu numai dulci, pentru îndreptarea oamenilor." - Preafericitul Părinte Daniel, Patriarhul Bisericii Ortodoxe Române


Liar Liar (1997)

The Cabin in the Woods (2011)
IMDb: 7
Personal8
"This is one of the few horror movies who have kept me hooked because I was genuinely interested in what was going to happen next. Not a very sophisticated movie but certainly very unpredictable. If you liked it I strongly recommend playing 'Until Dawn'." - Nelson Mandela


The Ritual (2017)
IMDb: 6,3
Personal8
"A horror movie made in the colonial manner. It was decent only because they borrowed Norse mythology. Using other people's culture in your own interest: a British classic." - Vladimir Lenin




Exam (2009)
IMDb: 6,9
Personal8
"This is non-gore Saw. If you like riddles but not really fancy graphic decapitation and torture this one is worth a watch. On the same principle, I would recommend playing Unravel rather than Resident Evil. I also invite mystery enjoyers to check out my 'One Night at Vîntu's' game." - Mircea Geoană


Crazy Rich Asians (2018)
IMDb: 7,1
Personal8
"Why can't I be a crazy rich Asian? Even the dramas seem easier to go through when you're a crazy rich Asian." - Bănel Nicoliță





Donnie Darko (2001)

Personal: 8
"The least bad zombie apocalypse movie. It had a lot of plot holes though." - Andreea Marin





A Street Cat Named Bob (2016)
IMDb: 7,4
Personal8
"This is very wholesome. Kids, don't do drugs though, not every street has a cat named Bob to be there for you. Unless you're in Bucharest and it's the late 2000's. In that case it's ok to take ethnobotanics on the street because they are perfectly legal and there are plenty of stray animals to keep you company while you steal your parents TV for another dose." - Sorin Oprescu 


Orphan (2009)
IMDb: 7
Personal8
"One of the most unexpected plot twists I have ever been subjected to. And trust me, I've been played before. Some homies (boieri) are snakes." - Mihai Viteazu




Alice in Wonderland (2010)
IMDb: 6,5
Personal8
"Unironically one of Johnny Depp's best roles. Mia Wasikovska has been a very credible Alice. Helena Bonham Carter is suited for the horny queen role (check Fight Club). Anne Hathaway, well, Anne Hathaway." - someone's 10 year old son



Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017)
IMDb: 7,2
Personal8
"It was okay I guess. I've never watched the original series but it's decent. Keeps you hooked. And for the best experience watch it in a theatre." - Warren Buffet




Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
IMDb: 6,5
Personal8
"At this point I had gotten used to the new Star Wars scenery and to the plot. I have to say I enjoyed the ultimate confrontation. Not an expert tho, I still didn't watch the og films. Maybe in the future." - Jeff Bezos



Sing Street (2016)

"This Irish High School Musical didn't disappoint." - Papa Francisc

Personal8
"This motherfucking movie was motherfuckingly funny and overall enjoyable. Nothing motherfuckingly exceptional though." - Samuel Eto'o

A Quiet Place (2018)
IMDb: 7,6
Personal8
"I think this is the most elaborate prank Jim has ever pulled on Dwight. He even dragged his family into this. No wonder Pam left him and he had to stick with Emily Blunt." - Liviu Vârciu

Spencer (2021)
IMDb: 7,1
Personal8
"Kristen's Diana is multidimensional. I like the fact that the director didn't portray her as a saint, but rather as a complex human being who has common desires and struggles with trauma and unfulfillment. A strong and authentic character. A big plus for nailing the Queen actress." - Diana Șoșoacă


Pozitia Copilului (2013) 
IMDb: 7,4
Personal8
"I wonder if foreign people watch this Romanian dramas and think to themselves. Nah, this atmosphere is too sad to be true. Nope, that's authentic. It's the Romanian style." - Dan Puric, because a genius deserves to be quoted twice

The Dark Knight (2008)
IMDb: 9
Personal8
"Clearly an unpopular opinion but I feel like this one is slightly overrated. Maybe the fact that I watched it for the first time 13 years later doesn't help the cause but still." - Zmeul din Prâslea cel Voinic



The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
IMDb: 8,8
Personal8
"I can understand why it was so appreciated in its time because it's very well built and as a person who didn't read any of the books I'm 100% sure it's a good adaptation." - my other Grandma




IMDb: 8,7
Personal8
"It was a consistent continuation of the story. Had some really scary scenes. Not much to add. Did I tell you how hard is to strive in late capitalism working in agriculture?" - Ionuț, a guy from Fântâna Mare



The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
IMDb: 8,9
Personal8
"The king took so long to return. Actually everything in this movie took far too long to happen. Probably a ton of fan service. Don't get me started on the eagles. I'll give it an 8 because it had stunning graphics for that time and overall it was a solid trilogy." - Petruș, another guy from Fântâna Mare

Logan (2017)
IMDb: 8,1
Personal8,5
"My second favourite superhero movie. You won't guess which one is my favourite (It's Joker). I like this type of approach that humanises super humans. 'Logan' exploited the potential of this concept very well and it opened doors to revolutionary ones." - Leonard Doroftei

"This was a good film, with gore unfiltered images of war and very convincing acting by Andrew Garfield, but a part of the characters seemed cartoonish and a bit exaggerated. Fortunately, Garfield carried it to this rate." - Mircea Bravo

"I finally see Jesse Eisenberg in a role fitting to his character. No, for real, I imagine this is the real version of himself. On a more serious note, watching this film coupled with "The Social Dilemma" documentary makes me want to delete all social media. Unfortunately, my mind was slowly tricked into thinking there are no other interesting ways of spending time than scrolling through mountains of literal nothing and watching people I don't personally know flexing their material belongings and promoting shit I don't need. Oh, and ads, let's not forget about them. Nah, just kidding lol, I honestly didn't develop the fear of missing out or something. I can quit anytime I want. Right?" - kinda everyone


Lost in Translation (2003)

"Light and far away from the everyday problems. The essence of the movie is running away and procrastinating, delaying the certainty of life. It's not painful, it's just so clear that the experience is bound to end. Just like everything that's beautiful. Embrace it while it lasts." -  Constantin Budescu

"Time isn't linear, but our struggles are. If only life was like a movie - having a big climax after a  couple of dramas. No wonder aliens came to us, they  must think life takes place only in the Hollywood way. And this film proved them wrong."  - Miron Cozma

"War is not about ideals. War has nothing to do with the desires of individuals. A lot of people died for nothing and that is a very hard to swallow pill.

The Wolf of Wall Street (2013)
IMDb: 8,2

"Damn it, Leo literally had 3 or 4 other roles he could've won an Oscar for and yet he won it with the worst one. Take this one for example, yes it broadcasts a extremely hedonistic approach on life but that's how it's supposed to be. I loved it." - Adriana Bahmuțeanu

"In spite of not sticking fanatically to the Iliad manuscripts, this movie represents the apogee of historical dramas. The acting, the scenery, the costumes, the plot twists, the philosophical approach, they all make up the masterpiece that is Troy.

"'Discovery' by Daft Punk not only is one of the most consistently good albums of all time, but also uses a touching anime to tell its story. I have deeply rooted connections with it therefore I can't help but be biased." - Tudor Dinco
