It features some of the best rock bands during the 80s in Russia, Auktyon, DDT, Kino, Akvarium, AVIA. Four popcorns for the documentary, twenty popcorn for the music.

What do you get when you give Keanu Reeves an unlimited supply of ammunition? Almost 3 hours of pew pew. While the moviee has good cinematography, I think there’s too much shooting in it. Anyway, it gets three popcorns because Hiroyuki Sanada is in it.

An American-led team of International astronauts leave their space station on the first mission to Mars, but the captain’s religious beliefs may get in the way.

Good space fiction movie set into a close future. It’s nice how it got some of the things the future way off while some are very close to reality, but it’s amazing, keep in mind this is made in 1955. Judging by 2023 standards, it’s not an impressive movie, but it’s a good visionary sci-fi. Four popcorns.

Set your gyros for Mars.

Excellent movie, with a ton of retro-futurism porn. The story is nice, even if a bit predictable, but it’s a solid movie, featuring The Outer Limits vibes mixed with Star Trek: TOS. Six popcorns and jumps into the Movie Vault.

A beacon draws them to the edge of space and time, but once they arrive at the long-lost ship, the crew of the Palomino discovers a mysterious scientist and that things aren’t always as they seem. Explore deep space in this 1979 Disney sci-fi classic, The Black Hole.

With a budget similar to and success far from Star Wars, this still manages to be a good movie, back in the days when Disney used to do creative and original stuff, It has a great soundtrack, excellent set design, great graphics, good writing and performances, Maximilian Schell (Judgment at Nuremberg) and Anthony Perkins (Psycho) not wasting their potentials. The robots are nicely designed and really fun characters. I know it’s fiction and stuff, but the creators of this movie never heard of the concept “hull integrity”. While the movie isn’t perceived as a masterpiece of some sort, it’s a good space movie, a last hurrah of the 70s age, before the 80s kicked in. Solid four popcorns.

Baltimore. New Year’s Eve. A talented but troubled police officer (Shailene Woodley) is recruited by the FBI’s chief investigator (Ben Mendelsohn) to help profile and track down a disturbed individual terrorizing the city.

The movie is well written, the tension is well-paced and the acting is good. Four popcorns.

A man named Zac Hobson awakens to find himself alone in the world. In a desperate attempt to search for others, he finds only two who have their own agenda.

It’s mysterious and at times even creepy, and offers a nice insight into what would someone do when they find themselves alone in the world. As I’ve seen a few years ago “The Last Man On Earth”, I know know where that show stole its best parts from. It’s about loneliness, human connections and how people feel. While being the first science-fiction film ever produced in New Zealand, it’s a great movie, gets five popcorns and jumps into the Movie Vault.
