Grasshopper: A dark and thrilling ensemble drama of those who defy fate.
The film struggled to build tension, and Suzuki, the main character, didn't stand out. It almost felt like his role could have been left out, since he barely made an impact on the story. The characters mostly acted independently. Although the synopsis suggests their stories converge, the ending felt unnatural and forced, lacking a genuine sense that everything was meant to connect. -

No Escape: Experience your everyday life collapsing in an instant!
After the first half hour, the film keeps you on edge with nonstop suspense. Still, the child character sometimes makes choices that feel off, which, even though it's a common storytelling trick, pulled me out of the moment. Occasionally, news reports cover riots or attacks involving corporate buildings and government officials. This film prompts viewers to consider what such chaos might be like firsthand. The depiction is grounded and unsettling, creating a strong sense of realism. -

Demonic(2015): The Suspense Horror Woven by Haunted Houses and Séances
The story follows a séance in a haunted house with a mysterious and troubled past. As the characters try to protect themselves from spirits, things don’t go as planned and tension builds. Rather than pure horror, the film feels more like a suspenseful thriller, with a mix of about 30% horror and 70% suspense. -

Inside Out, Characters that Personify Emotions Move Around Cutely.
The movie "Inside Out" is a masterpiece because it powerfully conveys the essential message that recognizing and accepting all of our emotions, especially sadness, is vital for emotional well-being. By personifying emotions as characters, the film not only entertains audiences of all ages but also helps viewers understand the mechanics of emotions and relationships, making the importance of sadness especially clear. Pixar's innovative animation and storytelling make this message both impactful and accessible. -

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 “Katniss’s story finally comes to an end!”
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 concludes Katniss's journey with a fierce battle between the rebel army and the dictatorial state. While Jennifer Lawrence's performance and the film's action are commendable, I believe the film falls short as a finale, earning a rating of 2.5 points in my personal assessment. Despite this, its value lies in providing closure to the series. -

Maze Runner: Scorch Trials – “Zombies appear unexpectedly!”
Despite the title “Maze Runner,” there’s no maze here—just more running and escaping than in the first film. While the movie is full of thrills, it ends before exhaustion sets in. As a result, it feels like a typical middle entry in a trilogy, for better or worse. -

Tomorrowland. The Importance of Dreaming.
A Disney movie, for better or worse. I think the film's best part was the beginning, if not the climax. A curious boy meets a pretty girl and experiences adventure and love with a girl who wanders into a world where dreams seem real and leads him to that world. -
