Cloud Atlas
7.4/10
A set of six nested stories spanning time between the 19th century and a distant post-apocalyptic future. Cloud Atlas explores how the actions and consequences of individual lives impact one another throughout the past, the present and the future. Action, mystery and romance weave through the story as one soul is shaped from a killer into a hero and a single act of kindness ripples across centuries to inspire a revolution in the distant future. Based on the award winning novel by David Mitchell. Directed by Tom Tykwer and the Wachowskis.
Iron Sky
5.9/10
In the last moments of World War II, a secret Nazi space program evaded destruction by fleeing to the Dark Side of the Moon. During 70 years of utter secrecy, the Nazis construct a gigantic space fortress with a massive armada of flying saucers.
Alien Autopsy
5.9/10
Humouristic reconstruction of the 1995 scandal when two British lads were accused of having faked a documentary from the Roswell incident in 1947.
Godless Youth
5.7/10
German students compete to enter one of the country's elite schools.
Deep Freeze
2.8/10
A deadly creature terrorizes a team of researchers at an isolated Antarctic laboratory.
t=E/x²
4.7/10
t=E/x² ("texsquare") tells the story of Merlin, an editor at a film production company finishing a documentary. He soon realises that he is stuck in a time loop along with a stranger, Eva. t=E/x² unfolds as a 'reverse narrative' and on three different time levels, where the protagonists are stuck in the same time loop as the audience.
The Antman
4.5/10
“The Antman” is a lovingly-made but sluggish monster-movie parody, done with German-speaking actors on a sparse soundstage standing in for 1950s Mexico. Promising concept is bolstered by colorful performances by Gotz Otto and Lars Rudolph, and the filmmakers have fun with pic’s look, right down to tacky lighting worthy of Roger Corman. But Marc Meyer’s script isn’t fast or funny enough to keep pace with energetic visuals. The first in a projected series of B-movie homages grouped as “Planet B,” the producers might want to call in Joe Dante to supervise the rest, as “Antman” seems unlikely to crawl very far beyond its native borders
