Sabotage

“Sabotage” is the latest flick in which Schwarzenegger is making his way back to the silver screen and compared to “The Last Stand”, this is an improvement. That’s not saying this is a great movie, just that “The Last Stand” was a rather shitty one.

Big Bad Wolves

The Israeli writing-directing duo Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado, who previously treated us to the slasher “Rabies”, are back with a torture-porn flick that takes more than a couple of cues from Eli Roth’s work. Praised by Quentin Tarantino as ‘the best film of 2013’, “Big Bad Wolves” starts off with the police investigating a serial killer who abducts, rapes, tortures and beheads girls. After picking up the suspect (a meek teacher called Dror), they beat the shit out of the guy in order to get a confession but he doesn’t cave.

The Blacklist S01

The Blacklist starts with a former intelligence officer who has landed himself a spot on the FBI’s most wanted list, turning himself in. That someone is Raymond Reddington (James Spader), a former agent who has gone AWOL a couple of years ago and has since become something of a master criminal. Even more surprising is the fact that he will only talk to Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone), a rookie profiler who has just started her first day on the new job. If you think this is an unrealistic and utterly ridiculous premise, then this is definitely not the show for you.

The Walking Dead S04

Season four of “The Walking Dead” starts off with the merry band of survivors holed up in their prison compound where every character has taken on a role: Carol is teaching the kids how to defend themselves, Daryl leads small groups on supply runs,… Rick on the other hand realized he had wandered a little too far off of the reservation and has taken a step back as a leader and mostly sticks to tending the garden.

Snowpiercer

Based on the French graphic novel “La Transperceneige”, Joon-ho Bong’s “Snowpiercer” plays out in the not too distant future and like most movies that take place in the not too distant future, things aren’t looking too good for us as a species. In a last-ditch effort to stop global warming, we fucked up and ended up in a new ice age with just a couple of humankind surviving on a high-speed luxury train, made by a wealthy industrialist named Wilford (Ed Harris).
