Caligula (1979)
1/10
Unnecessary horror in human history
2 May 2024
I can't imagine status of the mind behind this, why would it be made, and did someone really think this would make some new blood & gore genre.. or what.

Disturbung, over the top showcase of barbaric paganistic Rome? No. There are epic dramas, this is just a test to see what the audience will swallow.. and it is too much.

I really hope everyone included in this movie had a session or two with a psychologist, before and after it being made..

Should be deleted from human history, this is no art, this is "Emperor's new robe"...

My review is too short, but there is not much to say, don't waste 2.5 hours of your life..

Naked (I) (2017)
6/10
Complex enough, for a comedy
6 April 2019
Why is this movie good enough to take 1h30m of your life? Because as simple as it is (and even if it reminds of The Groundhog day) it still has humor mature enough so you don't roll your eyes as with many other comedies, and the story which is not "straightforward-known-in-advance" so you get some surprises along the way.

I'm not easy to satisfy movie-wise, but this one has to be solid 7. Nice one to enjoy at casual evening with your loved ones.

Keeps you occupied only for the first and the last 10 minutes of the movie..
2 April 2019
With over 550 movies watched and 280 video games played (serious ones, longer, with story) I believe I am adept enough to say that this will just not do. I do not know did those who prefer to see Chris H. walking/dancing naked (under the shirt) rate the movie high or what, but the movie is just too simple.

It starts, gives you something to think about and then just flattens itself. Around 1h20m I said to my wife that this is the last movie I'll watch if it doesn't keep me interested in the first 30 minutes... the end was fine, somewhat righteous but you could predict it all.. that's why it's simple and offers nothing new or exciting to somewhat seasoned cinephiles.

Don't waste 2+ hours on this.

The Guest (I) (2014)
3/10
Shallow movie as is this review
19 August 2015
Sorry to say this, the actors are nice by their looks but there's nothing much to the movie which will make you feel that time was not wasted.

The story is OK in sense of slowly getting you into the setting but for too long you don't know much and then suddenly it's blood & gore everywhere. The movie is over before you know anything and it's not deep enough to let you wonder what-who-where-when-why or whatnot..

If you wanted bad guy you'd watch Halloween. If you wanted retribution or something like that you'd watch Agent 47. Here we have mixed feelings with nothing left to think about in the end because you don't get revealed materials to think about. So you're left stranded in thought "how do I feel now after watching it" and you're just feeling nothing.

Overall, it could have been like 5-6 but meh.. it's mellow with too much "american" in it in the end.. sorry people nothing to see here, move along...
