Colossal (2016)
It's not about physical monsters...
Let's get one thing straight from the start.
This film is not about real monsters destroying Seoul. It's about the monsters women (and some men) live with when they have abusive and controlling partners.
There is the odd moment to snigger at, but really this film is about alcohol problems, domestic violence and people, in this case specifically a woman, being unable to escape a situation.
Some really good acting and a nicely paced film. It's better than a lot of the low scoring reviews on here give it credit for. It was entertaining and at times quite heart wrenching.
Just don't go into it expecting your typical monster attacks a city movie.
Fractured (2019)
Life doesn't always have happy endings
To score this film down due to the last five minutes is madness. It's a thriller not a fairytale and not every film has to end with a hero who saves the day (although Ray might consider himself a hero, haha!).
A well shot film with a good soundtrack, some spooky and unsettling moments and some decent acting. There was a nice amount of is he nuts or not and some entertaining twists.
Worth a watch for sure and definitely worth a 7 for entertainment factor. Just don't expect sunshine and lollipops.
