Resident Alien Review (2021, SyFy)

and is forced to pretend to be an ordinary earthling until he finds all the parts of his ship and will not fulfill the not entirely justified goal of his long journey - to kill all humans. The series deliberately does not deconstruct the genre, it just takes all the established genre clichés (humanoids, people in black, strangers among us, crazy ufologists, probes and abductions - you yourself have seen it all a million times…

at which everyone laughs and no one understands why the President of the United States , in which the previous head of the White House is guessed, generally organized a new branch of the army.

Raya And The Last Dragon Review (2021)

And there is also a very charming unicorn dragon, who is sorely lacking screen time, she is so good. 😄 Go to the movies with your children - you will like it, the children will too (it is beautiful and not scary, similar to "Kung Fu Panda", only with people, a little deeper and explores the themes of loss, revenge, acceptance, forgiveness and unity as opposed to fragmentation and anger). On my own I will add…

Liara T'Soni from Mass Effect (Art)

Humble, smart and beautiful Liara T'Soni from worldwide famous sci-fi role playing game series "Mass Effect".  I love Liara, honestly. And who's not? And "Mass Effect" has affected on me quite much, it was a huge emogional adventure with a great story of rise and fall, loss and hope. "Mass Effect" is a part of us, I think. Made in Photoshop with Wacom One tablet. Here's some little breakdown of this artwork: As usual, it…

The Last Tsar ("The Empire Must Die" by Mikhail Zygar Review)

Russia at the beginning of the century. The economy is booming, a richer middle class is increasing its wealth, and industry is enriching itself with innovation. But the civil society of the largest and richest country is facing a political crisis: the sole ruler has no idea about the real life of his own people, lives in isolation and is more passionate about geopolitical victories and the privacy of his family … … While the…

Bridgerton Review (2020, Netflix)

This is an interesting project that works on several levels: on the one hand, the plot itself is quite classic: 19th century England, a secular society with balls and scandals, beautiful outfits, rich interiors and so on, but all this is presented with one assumption: what, if the king fell in love with a woman of a different skin color and racial equality happened not by the end of the 20th century, but earlier? This…

Bad movies (Dracula: Untold and Brightburn Review)

Первая - остроумная на уровне идеи, но не исполнения, зарисовка на тему "Что, если бы Супермен вырос злобным и всесильным подростком-убийцей". Сюжет очень простой: милая пара из Элизабет Бэнкс и бывшего парня Пэм из "Офиса" хочет ребеночка, но не получается; зато они находят его в капсуле после падения метеорита. Парнишка вырастает, но с пубертатом в нем просыпается ЗЛО, которому он не может противостоять, - и начинается дикая немотивированная жесть с убийствами близких по смехотворным причинам.

Sharp Objects Review (2018)

The main character, played by Amy Adams, on the instructions of the editor returns to the provincial American town where she grew up to write a report on the mysterious murders of little girls, which the local police cannot (or do not want) to investigate. Camilla returns to her father's house to her mother - and immediately regrets it: Adora immediately makes it clear that she is not happy about the arrival of the "lost…

Queen's Gambit Review (2020)

The outstanding mini-series about gifted young girl with a difficult fate, who learned to play chess from an old man in an orphanage and is doing everything to become the champion of the United States and defeat the strongest grandmaster in the world in the USSR. It would seem that chess is not the most spectacular sport, but the way it is presented here is breathtaking. And the focus is not at all on chess!…
