The Medium (2021)

A masterpiece in the genre.

[10/10 · 4 May 2022]

Nothing short of being one of the very best film the genre has to offer. The film has interesting thematic connections to other classics like The Exorcist and Don't look now.

But an even closer relation to the south korean masterpiece The Wailing from 2016.

Without being a direct sequel to that film, The Medium seems to open up, interpret and zoom in on aspects of the wailing in ways where both film are the better for it. Both films are examples of well crafted and personal films, dealing with East-Asian occultism and occult ritualism in different ways. And they are equally entertaining. I would recommend watching The Wailing first. The director of the wailing has written the script and produced the medium.

The Bubble (2022)

This is worse and even more annoying than ...

[1/10 · 3 April 2022]

When all those celebs sang imagine in the beginning of covid on instagram. Same level of being out of touch, and as poor in taste. But worse than the idea and execution is the writing and the acting. You wont believe how poor the acting is and thats with a pretty great cast. It's truly one of the worst films ever made and I've only watched the first half hour. Enjoy :)

The Terminal (2004)

This film is ''incredible''.

[1/10 · 1 December 2019]

The accent Tom Hanks gets away with in this 'film' will astound you. It was only 15 years ago that something like this was possible. Meerkats would struggle watching this level of tackiness. Blind-drunk Borat impressionsm stops in its tracks. There's however ways to enjoy this film: Surround yourself with folks that love to comment loudly on everything and remember to drink wildly. You know the types.

If you were Russia and you watched this, you would probably have to ask the US gov for an extradition of anyone involved in this project. Chained. Muted.

''In a deleted scene, Navorski gets help using a phone card and says, "Home phone, home phone!" Steven Spielberg cut it because he didn't want comparisons to E. T. (1982) and the famous lines "Phone home."

Which is because horse-antagonist-directing-Steve, is an actual auteur. Most of Tom Hanks accent here would be out of place comming out of the mouth of a horse, but only barely. Because Tom is a good actorer, maybe even as good as that horse in that other classy film, the great Spielberg made later on.

''As of July 2017, Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg have collaborated for 5 films. The Terminal is the only film in their collaboration which hadn't been nominated for Academy awards.'' This could be one of many reasons why that is: ''In the scene where Viktor and other people sing the Krakozhian national anthem, they sing the anthem of Albania in "gibberish" words. Although Viktor comes from the fictional country of Krakozhia, the language he speaks in the movie is Bulgarian. The written material shown (the Fodor's guide and the magazine page with the jazz greats) is in bad Russian.'' Not unlike the accent which is bad russian aswell. The film is bad too. The accent in this film is terminal. The film needed a dying horse. It needed whipping from an archeologist too. Whipping a dead horse, is exactly what this accent was too.
