From the same director
The Incredible Hulk
The second movie from Marvel Studios, betting on a hero who was already well known to the audience. Unfortunately, this ends up being one of the weakest feature films from the House of Ideas - the lack of experience of the company at the time, as well as the difficult relationship of the star Edward Norton with the director and producers, is clearly felt. The result is a weak script, which is worth only for the action scenes - even if the special effects have not aged well. Although the story introduces Hulk into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the studio later chose to cast a new actor for the role of Bruce Banner. It's worth watching, of course, as part of the wider package of superheroes from the House of Ideas.
Now You See Me
Criminal movie that avoids any cliches of the genre, 'Now You See Me' is a delight for those who enjoy magic, miraculous investigations and, mainly, don't care much for the logic of movie stories -- after all, we are talking about magic! Here, we follow the story of a group of illusionists who become the target of FBI investigation after suspicion of a series of "impossible" crimes committed by them. From then on, with a cast led by names like Mark Ruffalo, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Jesse Eisenberg, we dive into the story of this group and, above all, into how the magic is created and performed. A movie to let yourself be carried away by the slightly absurd story, but that leaves anyone enchanted with all its possibilities.
The Takedown
Comedies featuring police duos are usually quite entertaining and 'Loin du périph' fits well into this niche. Omar Sy ('Lupin') and Laurent Lafitte ('The Origin of the World') are former work partners who haven't spoken to each other in a long time, and are forced to reunite for an investigation and must revive the partnership they had in the past. Even though this type of story is hackneyed, this French production manages to give it a refresh and deliver a good dose of suspense, humor and emotion. After all, any movie that talks about friendship can touch us a little, right?
Action
Furies
An exclusive Vietnamese action and revenge thriller on Netflix that thematically will remind you of "Promising Young Woman", but in action and style it is more reminiscent of "John Wick" and "Kill Bill". Although it is not as refined (or interesting) as its references, "Furies" will leave genre fans satisfied. The plot is somewhat scant: three furious and violent female vigilantes join forces to take down a sinister mafia that has made them victims. There is more substance in the action sequences than in its premise, but if you're looking for something visually impactful and entertaining, you'll like it.
Demon Slayer: To the Swordsmith Village
After his family is viciously murdered, a kind-hearted boy named Tanjiro Kamado resolves to become a Demon Slayer in hopes of turning his younger sister Nezuko back into a human. Together with his comrades, Zenitsu and Inosuke, along with one of the top-ranking members of the Demon Slayer Corps, Tengen Uzui, Tanjiro embarks on a mission within the Entertainment District, where they encounter the formidable, high-ranking demons, Daki and Gyutaro.
