Line of Duty
The filmmaker Steven C. Miller has been delving, in recent years, into an action cinema summed up in shooting, bombing and brawling. This was the case with 'Assault on Power' starring Bruce Willis, and it is repeated now with 'Line of Duty'. Starring Aaron Eckhart (‘Thank You for Smoking’) and Giancarlo Esposito (‘The Suspects’), the feature film uses a thread of story to bring intense action scenes, full of chase, fights and running. This is how the movie should become a satisfactory entertainment for specific audiences, who don't want action stories full of intricate plots or the like. 'Line of Duty' is a movie that goes straight to the point, without any fuss and not even paying attention to plot holes. It wants to excite with its action. And, with that, it should entertain the audience.
Arsenal
Two big names in cinema have taken a turn in their careers and don't think twice before accepting generic action films: Nicolas Cage and John Cusack. The former has been in titles like 'Between Worlds', '211' and 'State of Emergency'. The latter, meanwhile, has been seen in films like 'Paranoia', 'Cellular' and 'The Prince'. Now, in 'Arsenal', the viewer finds a mix of all this generic action that the duo has worked on in an even more generic film. After all, director Steven C. Miller ('Assault on Power') doesn't seek innovation at any moment, nor does he try to make a reinforced rice and beans. It's just a correct action movie, with some good moments and a particularly strange Nicolas Cage. It won't excite anyone, nor will it stay in memory. But in the end, it can be a fun time for those who want action to pass the time.
Marauders
This is a technically well-executed crime thriller for the delight of genre fans. The script of 'Marauders' doesn't take risks, as its conspiracy plot with social criticism nuances manages to be both as conventional and unnecessarily tangled at the same time, besides being inhabited by almost insipid archetypal characters. They are saved from that thanks to the actors playing them, such as Christopher Meloni ('Law & Order: Special Victims Unit'), who works perfectly in the role of a federal agent. For the delight of action movie fans, old and new, there is also the presence of Bruce Willis ('Die Hard') and Dave Bautista ('Guardians of the Galaxy').
First Kill
With a low budget, Steven C. Miller (“The Master Plan” and “Suicide Rescue”) managed to deliver a movie for genre fans – an original and insightful thriller. A father-son journey in the woods turns into a frantic hunt when the child is kidnapped. Starring Hayden Christensen and Bruce Willis.
Horror
The Nightman
The Nightman a dramatic thriller that explores the dangerous boundary between love and darkness. The story follows a young pregnant woman who begins to question the perfection of her boyfriend upon discovering his possible involvement in mysterious disappearances and murders, linked to his sleepwalking behavior. With praised performances and precise direction, the film delves into complex themes of relationships and personal dilemmas, keeping the audience engaged in its dark suspense.
Abigail
Abigail demonstrates why we should keep an eye on the director duo Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, especially when they have original material at their disposal (they also directed Scream 5 and 6, with mixed results). Abigail is a film that manages to balance the terror and tragedy of its characters with the absurdity of its premise, thanks to a clever script that plays with the conventions of vampire literature, careful direction, and a phenomenal cast (led by Mexican actress Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens) that fully utilizes their roles. The plot follows a group of kidnappers tasked with a delicate job: to kidnap a millionaire's daughter for ransom. However, it all turns out to be a trap: beneath the guise of a 12-year-old girl, the victim is actually an ancient vampire who likes to play with her food. Like Ready or Not in its time, this film is self-aware, pushing its story and violence to the most absurd and fun limits without falling into self-parody. It won’t change the history of horror cinema, but it’s an excellent (and even stylish for a film of its genre, I dare say) choice for a fun time at the movies with friends.
28 Days Later
