Devil (2010 film): A solid situation with a strong religious flavor
Five men and women are trapped in an elevator. A murder occurs in the sealed elevator, leaving them unable to escape. Then, suddenly, another murder happens. The killer is among them, and everyone is consumed by suspicion. Blaming the murders on demons might seem too simple, but the film makes great use of the elevator setting to explore guilt and suspicion. The way the characters interact maintains high psychological tension throughout. Fans of American dramas like The X-Files or Supernatural will likely enjoy it. It feels more like a two-part extended episode than a single one. -

Locke: “A Closed-Room Drama by Tom Hardy”
From the start, you wonder why he’s driving alone and what leads him to make such questionable choices. The ending is somewhat abstract, so it may not appeal to everyone. Tom Hardy's acting is outstanding. Even though he only talks to others by phone while driving, you can easily picture the people on the other end. Holding attention for 80 minutes alone in a car must have been tough, but the film remains gripping throughout. -

Alien: Romulus. Evoking the horror of the origins.
It depicted an encounter with an unknown life form and the fear and survival accompanying it. The entire film is classically structured to escape from a terrifying experience on a spaceship. Of course, Xenomorphs and face-huggers appeared, and the tense scenes between such creatures and the ship's crew allowed the audience to experience the essence of fear. -

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest. Members of the first film reunite.
As always, the unique character of Jack Sparrow, played by Johnny Depp, "Jack Sparrow can't be replaced!" We will be able to say it throughout the future series. It was reaffirmed to be true throughout the future series. However, it is over 2 hours long and has a midway point. -

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. A masterpiece of science fiction in which the Jedi do not appear.
Chronologically, this is how Princess Leila got the blueprint data for the Death Star, just before Episode 4. For those who have seen Episodes 4-6, this is a heartbreaking film, and I wondered how X-wings and AT-ATs could be so hopeless. -

The Lion King
The story continued the anime. The visual beauty of the images, which were full CG but looked like live-action, was terrific. However, the realism made it challenging to distinguish between the same characters. I vaguely recognized Mufasa and Scar, young Simba, and young Nala. Still, I don't recognize Sarabi and Nala when they talk side by side. -

The Maze Runner. The beginning of an epic trilogy.
Some labyrinths can't be honest, and there are mechanical monsters that can't be there either, and they attack. (Spoiler alert: I didn't know what these super sci-fi things were until I reached the end.) Even after following the artwork, I didn't know why the runners were there. -

Oppenheimer. Life of the Scientist Considered the Father of the Atomic Bomb.
It is the story of the life of Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb. It is also the story of Oppenheimer as a scientist and his discovery and deepening knowledge of the possibilities of nuclear energy with his fellow scientists. Only it can create a deadly weapon that can kill people. It was a human drama about a man caught up in a factional war, unaware of the deadly weapon he had created in his quest for knowledge. -

47 Meters Down Uncaged. Sharks attacking in confined spaces.
It is a typical shark panic movie, but it adequately captures the parts that scare the viewer. The shark attack scene and the time limit for running out of air cylinders in the deep sea make this movie a combination of a shark movie and a time-limit thriller.
