Prague-based movie reviews, news and other trash
I’m extremely grateful for my friends at armarolla literary journal who recently published an abridged version of my short horror screenplay Sirens featuring the stunning photography of Prague-based photographer Richard Hodonicky and Slovak dancer and performance artist Martin Talaga, who has believed in this project from day one – thank you. The new issue of the journal is dedicated to musings of love and features the work of talented writers from all over the world.
The much anticipated Christopher Nolan thriller Tenet has a new trailer and gives us a little more, but in typical Nolan style, a lot of the plot still remains a mystery.
It’s been a while, almost a year I think. A while since I’ve made a post like this. Something that is finally NOT news, festival or review related. It was getting a bit much recently and I definitely needed a break from the daily grind… and it feels phenomenal. Just me, balcony, two lazy cats and a shit load of cheap red from my local potraviny.
A rather colourful and sensational trailer just dropped for Elton John biopic Rocketman, but can we expect another textbook and family friendly Bohemian Rhapsody?
Nicole Kidman is almost unrecognisable in this gender flip on the cold hard detective thriller. Despite it being her most memorable performance in recent years though, Destroyer is weighed down by, what feels like, a lack of tension, urgency, and quite honestly, a lack of, well, destroying.
The first teaser trailer for the new Avengers film has FINALLY dropped, and the official title is confirmed to be Avengers: Endgame.
This year in Prague’s gloriously tacky and low-brow Shockproof Film Festival, catch an eclectic mix of old and new, and trash and treasure. From John Carpenter and The Blob to brutal manga horror and Lords of Chaos, missing this festival is the most stupid thing you could do this year.
Green Book is a wonderful rendition of the Hollywood buddy comedy. Although it knows exactly where this trip is heading, Mortensen and Ali provide enough food for thought… and literal food, to bring something refreshing and more nuanced look at the race war of the ’60s.
The first trailer for new animated anthology series Love, Death + Robots is a sensory overload of epic proportion, and I mean that in the best possible way.
Remember the ’80s classic He-Man and the Masters of the Universe? It’s getting (another) live action film and will be shot in Prague this summer.
