Trailer
Why watch this film?
Under Joel Schumacher's command, the feature bets on the same exaggerated aesthetic that marked the director's passage by the hero. The great addition here is the humor, much more present than in previous films - even if it results in sequences worthy of shame, like the one with the Batman using the "batcard". This time, George Clooney is under the hood. We also have the return of Robin (Chris O'Donnell) and the introduction of a new heroine, Batgirl (Alicia Silverstone). Together, they face the villains Poison Ivy (Uma Thurman) and Mr. Freeze (Arnold Schwarzenegger himself). It is not, as cinema, a good movie, but it marked the childhood of many people precisely because of its easy story, with appeal to children.

The Client
Based on the book of the same name written by John Grisham (famous for cool thrillers such as 'The Firm' and 'The Pelican Brief'), this movie gave Susan Sarandon the BAFTA award for Best Actress, plus an Oscar nomination. Though it doesn't have a brilliant script, the production is sustained precisely by the actress' performance and should satisfy those who like courtroom movies.
The Lost Boys
This 80s thriller has become a cult classic despite its somewhat ridiculous premise, over-the-top acting and an all-star cast of young stars of the era (such as Kiefer Sutherland of '24' early in his career). If you like vampires, 'Los muchachos perdidos' (better known by its original title of 'The Lost Boys') is a little gem that's enjoyable and ridiculous in equal measure.
Batman Forever
Under the direction of Joel Schumacher ('The Phantom of the Opera'), Batman returned in a mix of Tim Burton's aesthetics and the visual excesses of the 1990s. The result is a film that, in some moments, recalls the 1960s TV series. The title character is played by Val Kilmer and a new hero is introduced: Robin, played by Chris O'Donnell. Together, they face Two-Face by Tommy Lee Jones and The Riddler by Jim Carrey - which, to this day, stirs up love and hate from fans due to his mannered performance. Far from being the best movie of the character, it is still an interesting portrait of an era.
Action
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One - A fast-paced action, mystery and thriller film that follows a young woman with impressive telekinetic powers, desperately fighting for her life while unraveling the mysteries of her past, pursued by unscrupulous killers. With Blue Dragon Award nominations for Best Supporting Actress (Seo Eun-su) and Best New Actress (Cynthia), this film captures the protagonist's intense battle to find answers and justice, facing not only her persecutors, but also to his own inner demons.
Bloodsport
Jean-Claude Van Damme makes his starring debut in the descriptively titled Bloodsport. An American soldier at large in Hong Kong, Van Damme becomes involved in the Kumite, a highly illegal kickboxing competition. Whoever survives the bout will be crowned Kumite champion of the world…a title that has plenty of challengers with homicide in their hearts. The finale offers a duel to the death between Van Damme and reigning Kumite king Bolo Yeung. The script is based on the real-life exploits of martial arts champ Frank Dux, who serves as the film's fight coordinator.
War on Terror: KL Anarchy
Khalid, a rebellious cop from an elite special force must prove he is able to work as a team in order to thwart terrorist threats to bring down Kuala Lumpur.
The Order
In The Order, Van Damme plays a man accused of murder who seeks a sacred scripture in Jerusalem before it falls into the wrong hands, jeopardizing his freedom. With shades of Dan Brown and a script by Jean Claude Van Damme himself, alongside Les Weldon (screenwriter of another action star film, Replicant), the movie is what every fan of the Belgian actor wants: brawling, with a fun plot, and never boring.
