A lawyer becomes entangled in intelligence when he accepts a defense case for a Soviet spy.

I’m not sure what to say about this movie. It’s quite good. I like historical intelligence movies.

Soldiers, separated from their opposing factions, travel with the last techno-druid to their sacred land, hoping for knowledge.

I wanted this to be good, but it’s as though it had all the most boring parts of any random anime, except this was live-action. Not recommended, even for people who might like the concept.

Stephen-Fry - More Fool Me (2014) cover 2

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4701426/

This is Stephen speaking on stage and then reading from his book, and not (really) a standup routine.

I like him, and this was enjoyable but not recommended unless a person already knows a bit of him. He is very personable and accessible to me.

How To Kill A Zombie (2014) poster

Entertainment > Movies >

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3694988/

An experiment intentionally infects a local town, and a survivalist and his son fight to escape the horde.

A playful zombie movie. One of the main characters is a terrible over-actor, but if you like this genre of movie, this one is pretty good.

A world broken by plague sends a team back in time to prevent the virus from spreading.

It’s better than a B-movie but definitely not A-quality. I would class this as a good TV-movie. Worth a watch if you’re into science fiction.

  • In the year 2204

Space Adventure Cobra (1982) poster

A space-pirate with a huge bounty on his head shags a hottie who turns out to be a crazy magic-woman who was whoring herself so he’ll help her.

This is probably good if you’re into anime. I’m not, so it’s exaggerated and boring to me. Maybe I’m disinterested because it builds on the universe of a whole manga and not much could fit into the length of this movie.

Fire City - End of Days (2015) poster

Entertainment > Movies >

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3383214/

Demons who feed on suffering suffer a terrible plague that threatens to starve them to death.

A unique world, great makeup/appliances and plot make this particularly interesting. I’ve heard this called noir-esque, and it really does have a style that’s similar to other movies I’ve seen. Recommended!

Thought dead, an astronaut is left behind on Mars and desperately tries to stay alive and communicate with home.

Not exactly in the caliber of so many other science fiction films, but it’s lighthearted and generally decent.

The people of Detroit are being forcefully evicted and relocated to a corporate-owned city.

Unless you’re a serious fan, just give this a pass. It doesn’t really build on the franchise and it’s corny.

A new wave of tailor-made drugs sweeps over Detroit, whose even bigger problem is a corporate takeover of the city.

While interesting, it’s not ground-breaking like the first was.
