“Without Remorse” review: a real tear-jerker

What’s supposed to be an adrenaline-pumping experience got me in tears–of disappointment. Without Remorse is a movie that has huge potential but was weighed down by a generic plot–actually, it was a frail screenplay. Based on the 1993 Tom Clancy novel…

“Malamaya” could have been really good

It’s quite difficult to not compare Malamaya to Belle Douleur because both feature middle-aged women involved in a May-December affair. And halfway through the movie another reason became evident: it was not as good as the other one. And that is a little bit…

High expectations, low pay-offs for “ANi”
