The last few days I watched the Gamera 90's trilogy, They were as one reviewer put it, like a breath of fresh air and IMO the best kaiju films since Gojira 1954. The earlier Gamera films were crudely made for young children and wernt up to much. But these three were a lot different, made more for adults. The FX were much better, not up to American standards but still very good. The third and last film in the trilogy, Revenge Of Iris is the best, some might find it kind of dark and depressing and I didnt like the way it ended, it left you thinking there should be a sequel but the studio that made them changed owners and they arent going to make any more kaiju films. Still its a great film especially the Japanese version with English subtitles. I would rate them 8 out of 10.

That sounds like a great film, Id like to see it if it ever comes out on video.Lincolnshirelass wrote: ↑06 Feb 2018, 04:35 I have recently (on a rare trip to the cinema) seen 'Darkest Hour', and it was excellent. Of course I knew that Churchill suffered from depression, but this was a moving evocation of it, against a brilliantly well realised reproduction of wartime parliament, and Gary Oldman definitely deserves an Oscar.
There was a film about Churchill that came out some years ago with Albert Finney as Churchill that was very good and historically accurate. I think it was a BBC or PBS production, cant remember for sure.

- Latest Review: Who Told You That You Were Naked? by William Combs
This movie contains:
- Love
Lost
Sacrifices
Consequences of ignorance
Courage
And lot more.
Lena (Emma Watson)’s boyfriend becomes a prisoner during a military coup in Chile, in 1973. She tracks him and finds out he’s in a sealed-off organization called “Colonia Dignidad”. Lena joins the cult to save her boyfriend.
The cult is run by a religious preacher Paul Schafer. It is not easy to bare the challenges in the cult when you’re a woman, since they teach them that women are a class below men, and they are full of sin. There is extreme violence involved when you do not meet the requirements.
And it is a true story. the moment you finish watching you will be furiously using google to find out the real images and facts that have been shown in the movie.
Plus, Emma Watson nails the movie.
In my opinion, this movie is a solid 8/10
