Anora (2024) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Anora really caught me off guard. And not in the way I expected.About halfway through, I genuinely thought, wait… is this a comedy? Because the first half plays things pretty straight — almost grim at times — before the movie completely shifts gears and becomes far funnier than I was prepared for. The opening…

Greenland (2020) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Greenland is one of those movies that mostly works as a survival thriller — but doesn’t quite escape the familiar pitfalls of its genre. It’s intense, it keeps you engaged, and it has moments that grip you… But it also occasionally feels too predictable to fully elevate itself above your average disaster flick. The…

The Plague (2025) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ The Plague is the kind of movie that makes you uneasy from the opening moments and never lets that feeling go. I was filled with anxiety for pretty much the entire runtime — not in a cheap, jump-scare way, but in a slow, suffocating, sit-with-it kind of way. A huge reason that tension works…

Batman: The Movie (1966) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐⭐☆☆ Batman: The Movie is pure, unapologetic silliness — and honestly, that’s exactly the point. This isn’t a serious superhero film, and it’s not trying to be one. It’s a big, colorful extension of the 1960s TV series, dialed up just enough to justify a theatrical release. The best way I can describe it is…

The Killing (1956) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐☆☆☆ The Killing is a film that wears its influence on its sleeve — not always in a good way. Directed by Stanley Kubrick before he became a household name, it’s an early exercise in noir structure and stylistic ambition that ultimately leaves you appreciating the effort more than the result. On paper, The Killing…

Silent Hill: Revelation (2012) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐☆☆☆☆ Silent Hill: Revelation is one of those sequels that makes you question why it exists beyond brand recognition. I hate leading with something this blunt — because people clearly worked hard on this — but the script is genuinely bad, and it drags the entire movie down with it. Nearly every line of dialogue…

Killer Whale (2026) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐☆☆☆ Killer Whale is exactly the kind of movie you expect to stumble onto in January — a survival thriller clearly hoping to ride the wave of “shark movie season,” only this time swapping the shark for an orca. Going in, my expectations were low… but oddly enough, the movie briefly had my attention. I…

Superman and the Mole Men (1951) Review | MovieTalk+
⭐⭐☆☆☆ Superman and the Mole Men is one of those movies that feels more like a historical artifact than a fully realized story — and that’s not necessarily a bad thing. For a film released in 1951, it’s competently made, clearly sincere in its message, and honestly more engaging than I expected it to be.…
