Svart krabba (2022)
Cold, dark, strong and ... underrated
I rarely write reviews. But when I do it's because a movie truly hit a string.
Black Crab is a great movie.
It's sad, dark, cold, and very much possible. It portrays war in a Nordic setting in a very realistic way. You can almost feel the cold, the exhaustion, frustration, and emotions of the main characters. There are no superheroes, just ordinary people who had to push through unimaginable conditions.
Noomi delivers breathtakingly strong performance, as she always does.
If you're up for a post-apocalyptic war movie which is in the "it could very well happen tomorrow" category, this is it.
I may be biased because I like Noomi Rapace, her rough, no-nonsense acting, and I love post apocalyptic themes... but still... this is a very underrated movie.
The best movies will stay in your head for three more days after you watched it. This is that kind of a movie.
Monsters (2010)
Beautiful movie. A true science fiction adventure at it's best.
Not exactly what I expected, but a movie well worth watching nonetheless. It's a story about a journey through zone infected by alien organisms. Where it lacks action, it makes up by amazing scenery. As you follow the two main characters, you see the fight between humans and the aliens from their point of view – on the TV, in the radio, in the scenery all around them. Most of the destruction happened before the main protagonist get on the scene, which really draws you in and it gives you this eerie feeling it just might be real. While you don't see much of the monsters, you can always feel their presence. At the end you can only feel awe, respect and humility towards the huge octopus-like aliens.
The actors are good and you can relate to them. Whitney Able is stunning girl in a very natural way and she deserves to be cast in lead roles more often.
For such a low-budget movie it's amazing how well it came out. I give it solid 8/10 and hope we will see more movies like this.
