Well, hello there, kind folks. If you’re visiting this blog of mine, I presume that you have a certain interest in the cinema. As for me, even since my early childhood, I have had a deep love of everything related to movies and television. As far as I can remember, I have been more at ease in front of a screen than in the yard, outside, playing. It is a great way to travel, though other people’s stories, without having to foot any kind of steep bill. Over the years, I feel that movie-watching has even fuelled my own creativity.

All that being said, I welcome you in my Cinephile’s Nest. I hope you enjoy it here, feel free to come back at any time. Here you will find reviews of current movies and older ones. TV shows also. Some classics that have remained some of my favourites, some that have disappointed me. I will use a very basic star (*) system to grade them from 1 to 5 (5 being sliced bread level). Remember, these are just my tastes. I will try to explain in each review what I liked about these particular movies, without giving spoilers.

Il y aura aussi des critiques en français pour les films francophones, car j'aime également le cinéma dans ma langue maternelle. Avant d'apprendre l'anglais, plus jeune, je louais des tonnes de films traduits en français, surtout ceux de Bud Spencer et Terrence Hill. Ma mère a eu le choc de sa vie lorsqu'un jour, dans la boîte d'un de ces films, Deep Throat avait malencontreusement inséré. Une expérience formatrice pour le jeune cinéphile que je suis.

Bienvenue à tous, amusez-vous bien.

I welcome you all here, enjoy yourself.

Marauders (2016)

Genre: Thriller
Directed by: Steven C. Miller
Cast: Christopher Meloni, Bruce Willis, Dave Bautista
Time: 107 minutes



An armed robbery committed by four thieves in the Hubert National Bank, that ends with the taking of 3 million dollars and the execution of the bank manager, leads to a joint robbery-homicide investigation by the FBI and Cincinnati PD.

Quite honestly, I quickly lost interest in this straight-to-video movie that I found on Netflix. I did not even make it to the end. The story was convoluted and uninteresting and the acting was bad. Do not waste your time on this one unless you are starved for punishment.
