8. Mai 2024 · Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. When Rupert Wyatt's 2011 prequel "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" revived a five-decade-old franchise—one that spanned books, films, TV series, and comics since the '60s—it did so with a refreshing commitment to a powerful, timeless story: simple but not simple-minded, deeply emotional but far from corny.
22. Nov. 2019 · This in turn leads to a wider and more alarming look at toxic chemicals that are spread through the water supply, enter human bodies, and stay there. And it's that last bit of information that gives the movie a grim charge. At its most controlled and insinuating, "Dark Waters" is reminiscent of paranoid thrillers from the 1970s like "The ...
