I tried and tried to watch this but it was no good. The subtitles are too small and the plot is difficult to follow in places.

Romeo and Juliet type musical set on the Mexican border. She is a migrant, he is border patrol. The movie is interspersed with dance episodes, really very enjoyable. There is also the ugliest auntie of indeterminate gender on the planet.

Thoroughly unpleasant. A donkey finds himself wondering around having horrible experiences. Gave up half way through. I thought this was going to be a nice animal movie.

Down in the mouth, dull and worthy version of the Jesus story. Jesus himself looks rather old and the others seem permanently depressed.

This post climate change futuristic thriller unfortunately doesn't do what it says on the tin. Most of it revolves around a barren woman longing for a child. Moreover, the leading actress is wooden, capable only of looking stressed.

Patriotic American dog movie. An army veteran is tasked to deliver a service dog to a military funeral after which the dog is going to be handed back to the army. Being already traumatised by his previous combat experiences, the dog is heading for certain euthanasia. It's a fairly entertaining comedy with the dog being rather badly behaved. There is an alarming amount of times when the dog is left alone in the car while the man goes about his business. Other aspects of the dog handling are also dubious and shouldn't be taken seriously.

I didn't understand any of it. The movie jumps from one scene to another and none of it follows or makes any sense. Maybe it's just me. I watched about 3/4 of it before I fell by the wayside. It wasn't a pleasant thing to see, whatever it was.

The story of the 2 men crucified with Jesus. Wooden theatrical acting, bad "authentic" accents and incomprehensible leaps in time. Poor old Jesus could barely string a sentence together with his foreign tongue. Still, it's a good story and reasonably watchable.

A depressed woman goes to Egypt and walks about a bit. She gets laid, gets drunk, cries a bit and sees a fortune teller. It's all beautifully shot among the antiquities, but it's painfully slow and lacking a story. About the most exciting part is when she changes her shirt from a pink one to a blue one half way through.

Geriatric Charles Bronson lookalike Robert Bronzi plays an innocent man unjustly jailed. The prison is rife with corruption and violence. The whole movie is an orgy of tongue in cheek grotesque violence. Quite funny in places, but it's too simplistic. At least the sound was good and fully comprehensible.

Dreadful horror. It mainly takes place in a confined space with a girl being frightened and bullied. Very limited cast.

I don't know, maybe I don't understand the life at the palace, but I kept thinking why doesn't she just do her own thing and ignore the other royals and their customs and ceremonies. The background music was hideous.

Stunning documentary about a free style climber. Climbed alone with no equipment conquering many of worlds most difficult peaks. His climbing style is just unbelievable and the scenery is out of this world.

This alleged thriller from Mexico is is fact a horror. A murderous regime takes over a city, where it carries out atrocities. I watched most of it, but it seemed to be an orgy of violence with no redeeming features.

A young Jewish woman muses about faith and god. Zzz... watched about half of the film waiting for something to happen.
