The film “The Meg” revitalizes the shark movie genre by reintroducing the ancient Megalodon. Jason Statham delivers an energetic performance that matches the film’s large-scale oceanic setting. The straightforward storyline, minimal dramatics, and the inclusion of an international cast, such as Li Bingbing, provide the excitement expected from a shark movie.

Director Zack Kreger, who made ‘Barbarian,’ returns with a bigger-budget film. This horror mystery tells the story of 17 children who vanish from their class at 2:17 AM, with the truth revealed from different viewpoints. The film uses a tense, non-linear structure, an unsettling mood like Us and Hereditary, and explores social themes in the style of Jordan Peele. While some viewers are split on the ending, the script and direction have earned strong praise. Blending horror, suspense, and mystery, WEAPONS stands out as a must-see film for 2025.

Blue Beetle brings a lesser-known DC hero to the screen, telling a warm family story that blends Latin culture with eye-catching suit design. Although it shares some familiar elements with Iron Man and Spider-Man, its cultural focus and impressive effects make it unique.

The movie spent too much time building up to the fight between Batman and Superman, which made it feel overly serious and forced. Batman seemed weaker than Superman, so the big showdown didn't feel like a fair fight. Ultimately, Batman's role felt more like that of a minor villain, and his part in the final battle was somewhat disappointing. As someone familiar with these heroes only through the movies, not the comics, I often found myself confused and detached from the narrative.

The movie "F1 (2025)" showcases how drivers develop and team bonds strengthen in the world of F1. Dynamic camera work and powerful sound effects add to the realism. Alongside racing action, it is a human drama about racers overcoming adversity and engaging in F1's strategic depth. Understanding the sport's mechanics and strategies adds to the entertainment.

The action scenes, which rely on physicality rather than CG, create a sense of tension and thrill. The camera work is also well done. Rurouni Kenshin is not only an action movie, but also a film that explores the nature of the main character, Kenshin, his past, and the kind of character he is.

This film, which was just a live-action adaptation of Barbie's world, was not just an entertainment film but a gender-themed film about femininity and masculinity. It conveyed the need for both men and women in society and the importance of examining one's identity.

It was a story of love from a snarky daughter to her mother and love from the mother to her daughter. Since there were two perspectives, one from the mother and the other from the daughter, I wondered what kind of “twist” there would be, but it was not such a suspenseful story.

Since the catchphrase reads "Abe no Seimei to Onmyoji" (Abe Seimei and the Yin-Yang Master), I thought it would be an action story about battles against monsters. Still, it was more in the category of a mystery novel.

Everything is dark—the picture, the world, and the background—but it's not hard to see. That's what this film has. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes the world and music of the 80's America.
