Ad Astra (2019)
Bad nonsense story ruins this Science Fiction flick
Highly aticipated this movie but everything is wrong with the story. It's just find dad is space and it seems to be hard to find dad but eventually it isn't hard to find dad at all.
And then there is something with electricity. It doesn't become clear what's causing this and if dad is involved.
I loved Gravity and Interstellar because the story was solid and surprising.
Brat Pit floating thru the rings of Saturn with a piece of metal to protect was the limit. But then the movie was over..
Us (2019)
High expectations .. utterly disappointed
Get Out was a nice surpise so I had high hopes Us would be something unique too.
Us is certainly is unique but the story behind the things that happen in Us is too silly. The plot bothered me very much.
It must have been fun on set because the acting of the visitors is so overacted and stupid .. I was embarresed watching it.
Golden scissors and red jumpsuits.. whoever came up with this nonsense?
Den vita stenen (1973)
This series is a part of my childhood
Born in 1968, I remember seeing this series somewhere in the seventies on Dutch TV.
It kept me awake at night. Not because it was creepy. It was one of those series you remember all your life.
At 40, I can't remember anything about the story, but somehow I can't get this series out of my head. As a young boy I was fascinated about the blond girl with the white stone, her face that had no emotion on it
I loved the beautiful music and probably depressing story.
It is great that this series probably was aired around the globe. Good to read that I am not the only one on this planet that remembers this.
If this goes on DVD I'll buy it straight away. Hopefully with Dutch or English subtitles.
Phase IV (1974)
A long long time ago
A long long time ago (early eighties) a tv station in The Netherlands aired some weird sciencefictionfilms from the 60's and 70's.
One of those films was this one..... and it took me until 2004 to know what the title of this film is.
What I remember is that it was a very slow film. It scared the hell out of me. It must have been all those ants eating people. Somehow I still have it in my mind.. so it must be worth watching it again sometime.
Hope it will be released on dvd soon.
The Martian Chronicles (1980)
I never saw the end...... :-(
As a child, i saw every sciencefiction series that was available on tv.
This series has made an impression on me but I never saw the end. The scene with Christ in it was too much for my parents and at the age of 10, they still had the power to turn off the television.
Hope to see it in future... and make my own judgement.
The Time Machine (1960)
Close encounters
During a 3-week trip in the States in 1998 me and my wife stopped for a coffeebreak in Sacramento. There i saw a sign that said: "science fiction museum". I was curious so i went in the little museum. The guy that probably was the owner of the museum showed me all kinds of props used in all kinds of science fiction films and series. One of the props was according to him "the original time machine" used in this classic from the sixties.
The next christmas (1998) I saw the movie on television for the first time and since that time i always wondered if I really had a close encounter with the original time machine.
So.... if you ever visit Sacramento check it out please ;-)
The Day of the Triffids (1981)
A remake please!
In my memory it was a good series... Twenty years later I saw the day of the triffids tv adaptation again and i must say that it was a disappointment...... it looked a filmstudent project ;-) I like the idea and story so I hope that someday a new version will be made.
Long Weekend (1978)
One of those forgotten diamonds
Most of the people who visit IMDb will have some childhood memories about a movie they saw ones on television. When you'r young, most of the time you only remember the images. At the age of 35 I certainly remember The Long Weekend. Maybe it was my age... but in my memory it was spooky and had a very surprising and sudden ending. I always wondered what the title of the movie was. Thanks to the internet I know it was this one. I recently bought the DVD and watched it again. A little bit disappointing.. but I am glad I watched it again.
