Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom

I frankly can't find the words to describe this useless and bland fifth installment of the Jurassic Park film series: not a single hint of originality, not a sparkle, not a movie, in the end. Embarassingly bad. Mark: 3 / 10

Black Panther

More than enjoyable superhero movie, with a great cast, an intriguing plot and a very strong message concerning equality and acceptance. Oh, and it's always a pleasure to see the magnificent Angela Bassett. Mark: 7.5 / 10

Wonder Woman

As suggested by my dearest friend Massimo, an "energizing and uplifting" movie, technically superb and definitely enjoyable. A little different from the majority of superhero products, and that's a plus, in my opinion. Mark: 7 / 10

The Huntsman: Winter's War

Both prequel and sequel to "Snow White and the Huntsman", this pretty entertaining film can count on a quite remarkable cast and some really enjoyable moments. It's not a masterpiece, but it's rather agreeable. Mark: 6.5 / 10

Murder on the Orient Express (2017)

The fourth adaptation from Agatha Christie's masterpiece is an enjoyable, magnificently crafted and stunningly acted product, with a special mention for Branagh's performance. Great score by Patrick Doyle. Mark: 8 / 10

Ex Machina

Magnificently written and acted, this movie delivers a unique and almost forgotten experience, lounging between experimental romance and sci-fi thriller. Absolutely deserved the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. Unmissable. Mark: 8.5 / 10

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Being the first (of many?) spin-off taken from the wizarding world of Harry Potter, there was great expectation: well, I have to confess that, surprisingly, the film is thoroughly enjoyable, extremely well acted and magnificently crafted. Mark: 7.5 / 10
