Trailer
Why watch this film?
The franchise of video games 'Resident Evil' hit the big screen in 2002 with 'Resident Evil: The Cursed Guest'. The feature film gave a wake-up call to the zombie genre, which was - pardon the pun - kind of dead. As a success, the saga of protagonist Alice (Milla Jovovich) gained another five films, which were not so successful, but fans followed the then "conclusion". Lo and behold, in 2021 we have a new story: 'Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City' - which is also based on the video game series. This time, the aura of horror movie is taken to another level with the direction of Johannes Roberts ('Deep Fear'). Yes, there are some thrills, but they even fit the tone of the feature film. The production is quite worthy, has intense action sequences and some funny moments, it's worth it if you're interested in the genre. And the cast, made up of Kaya Scodelario (from the 'Maze Runner' saga), Robbie Amell ('Code 8: Renegades'), Hannah John-Kamen ('Black Swan Rising'), delivers a great job.

From the same director
47 Meters Down
A claustrophobic horror, in which two sisters dive into the ocean in a cage to observe sharks - and end up trapped there, threatened by hungry animals. Part of the subgenre called "survival horror", proving that even after decades since the release of 'Jaws', these marine animals can still be very scary. The cast features Mandy Moore (the voice of Rapunzel in 'Tangled') and Claire Holt (from the series 'The Originals'). For fans of horror and suspense, it's certainly a breath-taking movie.
47 Meters Down: Uncaged
"47 Meters Down: Uncaged" is the sequel to "47 Meters Down". On the one hand, it can be repetitive, as it replicates many elements in its predecessor's formula: an entirely implausible story and characters making highly questionable decisions. However, director Johannes Roberts does this effectively, as he achieves a nightmare-like underwater atmosphere full of tension. If you like more logic in your horror films, this might not be for you. But, on the contrary, if you enjoy B-movie films and extreme shark-caused situations (in the vein of 'Jaws' or the 'Sharknado' movie series), this offering will leave you more than satisfied.
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.
