歸來 - a simple, good story, with good actors and it is really good.



Score: 8.5 / 10

刺客聶隱娘 - each individual scene is pretty, but putting a series of pictures together doesn't make a movie good.  There are many scenes in which a person is talking to himself / herself for a long time.  In some scenes when there are supposed to be 2 persons talking to each other, the camera only took 1 person in the scene.  There are many "still pictures", i.e. scenes without any movement, in the movie but if I want to watch a movie, I look for a continuous story.  I tried to finish it but finally gave up.

Score:  N.A.

觀音山 - a bit boring, and if watch it till the end, the movie carries a message encouraging suicide.


Score: 6 / 10 (without considering the suicidal message of the film)

Churchill - the movie is about Winston Churchill during the D-day.  The actor playing Churchill did it well and the movie is good.

一念無明 - story is very simple, the whole film can be shortened to 3 min; feels like a government advertisement on how to treat those recovered from mental illness.  Whoever watch it for entertainment or relaxing will be very disappointed.


Score: 6/ 10

Genocidal Organ - a Japanese animation intending to say something about government control over people via data.  Rating by imdb is surprisingly high (>7), yet it suffers the same problem of many other Japanese movies - talk too much 口水多過茶.  Need some patience to watch it till the end.



Score: 6 / 10

Blade Runner 2049 - the story is able to keep the depth of the original Blade Runner from exploring the meaning of life to creating life.  The plot is well organised and well written.  It also implies a humanoid revolution, hence the third of this film.



Score: 9 / 10

Imposters - the FBI is too dumb that the plot is totally unreasonable.  For example, leaving a USD1 million diamond in a small safe without any other security.  The story writing is not good, it has wasted my time -


Score: 6 / 10

Dunkirk - not an exciting war movie but it is history.  If our Chinese soldiers face the same situation, will civilian ships answer the call to go to save them and the soldiers retrieve orderly?  Can't imagine what will happen.



Score: 7.5 /10

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - I have just watched around 10 to 15 min of the beginning and the end, i.e. don't waste your time because I have wasted mine to tell you this.


Score : 4/ 10

Atomic Blonde - poor execution and unreasonable plot for a spy movie with great potential.

Mindhunter - it is about the discovery of serial killers, and it is interesting -

Shot Caller - the plot and the acting is very good, I think this is the best movie I watched in the past months.  Also it is not a prison movie as expected from IMDB description.  



Score : 8 / 10

Wonder Woman, what a ridiculous story!

你的名字 - a touching and good story adopting exchanging body and time travel themes.  In fact this is the only 新海诚 film that I think is entertaining.  I have watched some of his other films, but either I can't watch till the end or I don't know / don't remember what they are about.



Score:  8 / 10
