A showcase of top-tier animation, blending various techniques and styles, including seamless 3D you barely notice, and a festival of creativity with shots you wouldn’t expect in anime (even live-action ones!). This season—and probably the entire year—doesn’t have a series with better animation or more creativity. Plus…

Gushing Over Magical Girls has been the talk of the town this season, splitting the anime community into two distinct camps. On one side, you have those who find the series repulsive — its overt explicitness combined with the young age of most of the girls here leaves a sour taste, harvesting more contempt than praise…

One of the better parts this series of found footage anthologies under the V/H/S label so far. This time around, none of the stories stand out in terms of quality, either up or down. Which is fine, it consistently held my interest at a level of moderate satisfaction. Screenwriting-wise, they don't attempt anything…

A repeated joke is not a joke, one might say. Compared to the first part, it logically lacks the hallmark of originality and the resulting surprise. On the other hand, it was nice to see that this sequel develops the original themes, and the social-critical overlay is about something a little different than last time …

An original sci-fi mindfuck (it’s not horror) that apparently shocks regular Netflix users in a way that demands viewer attention. Nicely conceived and paced, though it's really quite difficult to read the subtitles at that speed and take in what's going on, who's who at what moment, and what the implications are.…

For the Italians, this is a superhumanly good piece of work with the mysterious atmosphere of the strange city of Curon and an idea that gets 100 points for originality – I've never seen anything like it before and at times it reminded me remotely of Jordan Peele's Us. The series is interesting enough to keep up the…

I was expecting a dense drama that would be diametrically opposed to other space films by neglecting the astronaut side, but instead highlighting the emotional side and the mother-daughter bond, but unfortunately I wasn't impressed by that either. Eva Green is talented and although she doesn't act much, you remember…

It's infantile enough to be a Disney Channel type of film, but all the humour has been stripped away and it relies overwhelmingly on the cuteness of the children and the filler in the form of uninteresting (with a few exceptions) dance numbers. The acting is not worth mentioning, it was reminiscent of a village…

A nice and original comedy that combines the main idea of Edge of Tomorrow and ARQ and puts it together with occasional humour and the funny idea of a wedding day that the main character experiences over and over again due to forces of nature. It has some funny scenes, the humor is sparse but sufficient, and Andy…
