Bullet (2014)



A tough cop takes the law into his own hands when his grandson is kidnapped.

OK actioner is tough, but utterly predictable and has a plot littered with hole; and Danny Trejo does his usual thing.

Smile (2019)



A young and lonesome 18year old girl visits the legendary techno festival "Heimat" for the first time in her life, longingly hoping for experiences of proximity, joy and intensity. 

Visually stunning and imaginative movie is a fascinating watch, although it tells a quite simple tale.

Iron Sky (2012)



The Nazis set up a secret base on the dark side of the moon in 1945 where they hide out and plan to return to power in 2018.

Steampunk satire is deliberately not political correct, but the humor is patchy; good special effects and visuals, though.

Maltin***: "Flamboyant premise and lavish special effects would seem to promise a colorful melodrama, but it's really a wry satire on U.S. ambitions and failings. The female president is clearly meant to represent a certain former Alaskan governor. Goes on too long, but still amusing, entertaining, and definitely novel."
