Prague-based movie reviews, news and other trash
Birds of Prey is a dynamite girl-powered superhero movie exploding with ultra-colour and a butt load of fun. Yan’s wonderfully stylised film isn’t afraid to get silly (and sweary) compared to the royal mess that was 2016’s Suicide Squad. Think of a slightly tamer Deadpool without all the insufferable meta BS.
A new trailer has dropped for Bombshell, the new film on the Fox News scandal which is set to take the Oscars by storm. And yes, there’s already a TV series with Russell Crowe about the same thing… but that one’s not very good.
Even if you weren’t a big fan of 2016’s villain outing Suicide Squad, you must admit that Margot Robbie carried the film with her balls out performance of the popular Batman villain… so much so that the all-female Harley Quinn spin-off Birds of Prey is now here and the first trailer has dropped.
Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is an unabashedly glorious study of the washed-up actor. Both DiCaprio and Pitt are equally intriguing and lovable, but as expected, the events of the Tate murders, and Tate herself are relegated to mere background noise, and it doesn’t quite fit.
Australian actor Margot Robbie will star in new Nazi revenge thriller Ruin, shooting in Prague this Spring.
FINALLY, a trailer has dropped for the much anticipated and star studded Once Upon a Time in Hollywood – the ninth film by Quentin Tarantino.
I, Tonya is a ballsy biopic that captures its foul-mouthed figure skater with effortless ease. Remarkable performances from both Margot Robbie and Allison Janney, and a whole lot of ice skating, obviously.
The new red band trailer for the darkly comedic biopic I, Tonya shows the real story behind the controversial figure skater.
So there’s so much happening in the DCE universe that it’s almost hard to keep up. We’ve got Wonder Woman coming out next year, followed closely by Justice League – let’s hope that these two films will restore our faith in the DCE universe after the ‘mixed’ reviews of Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad. There was also news a while back that Margot Robbie would be getting her own Harley Quinn spin-off movie, because let’s face it, she was the coolest thing about Suicide Squad.
6.5/10
The latest from the DC Entertainment universe films certainly had a lot of hype and hope from comic book fans, more so after the slaughter of Batman v Superman. Suicide Squad or just ‘Skwad’ as it’s been dubbed on social media, is a fun and somewhat thrilling ride into the world of DC supervillains, and that’s about it. Nothing profound going on here, just a fun superhero movie. But that’s ok, isn’t it?
