The main problem of the film - the wrong submission of advertising and trailers. It seems that this is a standard story about how insidious seducer draws stubborn bachelor. But in reality there is much more interesting story about two lonely and cynical people who can only watch someone else's happiness on the part. The film is built on more than dialogues than funny situations, and this is its main advantage.

Not gonna get us

Atmospheric film about the world of gambling with a predictable storyline.

Though "Mad Max: Road Rage" came out three years ago, the success of this film is haunted by filmmakers around the world. But if the "World of Tomorrow" James Franco has failed on all fronts, "survivors" are pretty strong and emotional postapokalipsisa. Just do not need to wait on the movie of the same drive: it is too often inclined to overt theatricality inherent in the many French directors.

"Curse. Doll witch "- is an example of a film in which bad everything. In the plot there is an interesting twist that gets lost in the background a dozen follies. Actors play somehow lazy, the operator simply switches the camera between the two parties during the dialogue, and the whole horror lies in the fact that the doll sometimes turns his head.
