Movie premieres November 29: terrible "Suspiria" touching "Brothers Sisters" and unnecessary "Robin Hood"
Cinema / / December 19, 2019
Robin the Hood. Start
Unnecessary retelling of the classic story with a clear copy of Guy Ritchie.
- Original title: Robin Hood.
- Director: Otto Bathorst.
- Starring: Taron Egerton, Jamie Foxx, Ben Mendelsohn.
Kinovoploschenie another familiar story. Robin Hood returns from the Crusades and finds his country mired in corruption. Under the leadership of the black Little John, he learns to handle a bow and arrow and opposes tyrannical Sheriff of Nottingham.
A new attempt to play on familiar characters, it seems, has failed. The authors were not able to add anything interesting, except for action, finally turned hero in ancient legends green Arrow from the comics. Of course, the "Sword of King Arthur," Guy Ritchie's critics also abused, but it at least remained firm style director, who now openly trying to copy. "Robin Hood" also looks set of predictable plot twists, filled with misplaced fervor, besides strongly muddles the whole historical context. Do not save even the charming actors in the lead roles.
If you want to see a really interesting story about robbers of Sherwood Forest, it is better to revise anything from classics like "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves." And if desired action and good filming already mentioned suitable film Ritchie. The new "Robin Hood" is losing both of them.
Suspiria
Heavy and dark horror thriller with Tilda Swinton in the three images and music of Thom Yorke.
- Original title: Suspiria.
- Director: Luca Guadanino.
- Starring Dakota Johnson, Tilda Swinton, Doris Hick.
Young American Suzie is coming to Berlin to join the famous dance troupe. It impresses with its ability to teachers, but the girl does not know what is actually here all run by witches. Susie realizes that may soon become the next victim if you do not sort out in a mysterious conspiracy.
It is no secret that today in film and television goes era remakes. But Luke Guadanino did not act like a director, just retake the classic stories by adding their modern surroundings. He did a really independent version of the classic horror film, changing in him not only the plot, but also the very atmosphere. As a result, he left a long and stringy thriller that does not even scare more and fascinates with its gloom.
"Suspiria" - a heavy and complex film, the movie "is not for everyone." But those who love the actor's transformation Tilda Swinton (she is here played three roles), the music of Thom Yorke and subjects requiring long thinking, just have to see it.
brothers Sisters
A touching story for fans of spoken films and beautiful scenery.
- Original title: The Sisters Brothers.
- Director: Jacques Audiard.
- Cast: John C. Reilly, Joaquin Phoenix, Jake Gyllenhaal, Reese Ahmed.
Brothers gangsters Eli and Charlie Sisters receive another order: they have to track down and deliver Warm chemist who discovered a new way of gold mining. But he had already made friends with his dogged detective John, and now the brothers are trying to catch the newly-made partners. And keep them from not only all sorts of enemies, as the inability to communicate with each other.
In the wake of the new popularity westerns Jacques Audiard has produced perhaps the most lively and emotional film, which can be represented in this purely American genre. Unlike other similar stories, it does not focus on action movie or plot twists, but on emotions and communicating loved ones. All four main characters look unhappy and lost. And all they have to adapt to the harsh reality of the Wild West.
"Brothers Sisters" failed on all counts. And let the trailer does not fool you. This is not a provocative attraction about cowboys and touching human story played by great actors.
You will die or we will refund your money
The film is for the fans of the British black humor about death.
- Original title: Dead in a Week: Or Your Money Back.
- Director: Tom Edmunds.
- Starring: Aneurin Barnard, Tom Wilkinson, Freya Mavor, Christopher Eccleston.
After dozens of failed attempts to kill himself a writer-loser William hired for themselves the killer, who promised to execute the order within a week. And from that moment in the life of William was still to be adjusted: it want to release a book, and he fell in love. But an elderly killer plans, because if it does not eliminate the target, it will expel from work.
Not a very ambitious film from a novice in directing the viewer is typically British black humor, mixed on satire and drama. And each of these components is in itself good, and they give a complete and truly explosive emotional mixture. Bad jokes about suicide are intertwined with the work of hired killers, who are more like office clerks, and have to go to the meeting, it was noted by the secretary and perform monthly plan.
The film is very thin sustained mood: he is not inclined to excessive "dill", but avoids silly moralizing, allowing the viewer to choose how to perceive the story: in the form of satire, history of depression, or simply as a black comedy. And anyone who is not against such combinations, he will surely enjoy.
Colette
Beautiful historical drama with a typical story.
- Original name: Colette.
- Director: Wash Uestmolend.
- Starring: Keira Knightley, Eleanor Tomlinson, Dominic West.
Colette is very talented, she wrote an excellent book that sold huge numbers. That's just all believe that their written her worthless husband Willy. And he gets all the honors and praise. But once Colette bored this deception, and it defies society and antiquated morality, wanting to openly declare their freedom.
The plot of this film may seem very familiar, even after reading the synopsis. And if a great movie Tim Burton's "Big eyes" might have forgotten, the yield on the screens, "Colette," a week after the start at the box office "Wives"With almost the same content of hard to explain. But in general, the story should be completely relevant and fashionable today theme: a woman gets out of control man and finds freedom. And it is an important topic, and the right, the more the plot is based on real events, but the number of repetitive stories already beginning to dull their perceptions.
But "Colette" in any case not a bad film. At least it draws very beautiful filming and excellent game Keira Knightley, who showed all the difficult path of the protagonist. It is worth seeing if only for the sake of aesthetic pleasure. But in terms of the depth of the history of "Wife" still stronger.
Spitak
Drama disaster film about the earthquake in Armenia.
- Director: Alexander Kott.
- Starring: Lernik Harutyunyan, Hermine Stepanyan, Alexander policy.
The film is dedicated to the tragic events of 1988 when a strong earthquake destroyed the Armenian city of Spitak. In the story, the protagonist of Gore once threw in his hometown family and lives with his mistress in Moscow. Upon learning of the tragedy, he returned to Spitak and try to find under the rubble of his wife and daughter.
Not so long ago (about one and a half years ago) on Russian screens already released another film devoted practically the same events - "Earthquake" Sarika Andreasyan. But if he was trying to squeeze out a maximum of tears in the audience, showing in detail the misery and tragedy, the "Spitak" - more drama with pretensions to philosophy. And this can be treated differently. Someone scolds director and screenplay for excessive restraint and the vagueness of the protagonist. Others believe a picture tribute to the memory of the tragedy and the victims.
Advise "Spitak" for viewing quite difficult. This heavy film about loss and redemption, develops to the final in the parable. But those who have not heard about the terrible tragedy, you should either see the picture, or at least look into the "Wikipedia".
Conductor
Surprisingly good Russian horror.
- Directed by: Ilya Maksimov.
- Starring: Alexander Bortich, Evgeny Tsyganov, Aleksandr Robak.
Kate has the gift to see ghosts of dead people. And when lost her twin sister, the girl has to go in search of one, do not believe in the police that she ever existed. But Kate says that in wielding serial killer and must track him down. True, and the girl herself does not always distinguish between reality and your vision.
Russian horror finally begin to emerge from the impasse with the eternal parody of Hollywood stories. Of course, to the elegance and scale films of James Wan and other masters of the genre they so far away, and budgets still leave much to be desired.
In general, the film is exactly what the trailer: the special effects look cheap, the actors play well, and the plot is strongly twisted. Therefore, if the movie is curiosity, the film can be seen, however, did not have to wait too much.
All or nothing
Typical Russian comedy with jokes borrowed and ridiculous characters.
- Director: Dmitry Suvorov.
- Starring: Roman Roman Kurtsyn Arthur Smoljaninov, Daniel Yakushev.
Three managers decide to take revenge on his boss, robbed the company. They get into his house and steal 50 million. But it soon becomes clear that the money belonged to a much more dangerous to people. And now thieves-losers have to save their lives.
Director Dmitry Suvorov already marked in Russian cinema pictures "Superbad" and "classmates". And on the next film should not expect anything new. All the same frank borrowing from western comedy, awkward jokes and the most stupid story.
Of course, a comedy - a genre of purely subjective. Someone like jokes seem ridiculous, but still today at the box office there is a lot more worthy paintings, which are worth spending your time.
Elliot
Christmas cartoon for children.
- Original name: Elliot the Littlest Reindeer.
- Director: Jennifer Westcott.
The sleigh Santa Claus vacant place: the famous Rudolf decided to retire. And then the little horse Elliot decides to take part in the selection, to become the new Santa's Reindeer.
Here, even meaningless to talk about a plot twist, because "Elliot" - a typical Christmas cartoon that issue on the eve of holidays almost a dozen. That, in general, it does not make them worse. Of course, an adult, he certainly seem boring and even banal. The graphics in it is not bad, but there is nothing in it catchy.
But for the children, "Elliot" - the most it. party atmosphere, simple morality that we must dream and aspire understandable jokes and constant positive. What else is needed for a small audience of joy.
