I mean, it’s fine I guess. Maybe I just wasn’t in the mood.

More of the same. Fair but not spectacular for some reason; maybe I’m just not in the mood.

The hairy-footed nephew to the town’s adventurer is swept up into the aftermath of those stories when he is left his prized ring.

It’s great for its time, but there’s no way this could have worked were it any other franchise in any other context of any other era. Most things are not explained.

Our dude uses every resource for revenge against the Harkonnen who murdered his family and people.

It would be watchable, even good, if it didn’t have odd gaps in it. It’s as though there is another movie whose cloth this was cut. I’m betting there is a super duper extended length version, because I feel there are missing scenes.

A detective learns his daughter wasn’t killed but was instead kidnapped, and while pursuing a lead he discovers mysterious circumstances.

An adequate but ultimately unsatisfying movie; bubblegum.

A pig farmer gets stoned and hallucinates.

Gritty, scary, and gripping; a product of its time. Recommended both for real parenting and people who appreciate decent cinema. It’s nowhere near the calibre of something like The Secret of NIMH – (1982 movie) or the like, but think gently in that direction.
