FILM RESPONSE TO FRANKENSTEIN (1931)
To me, Frankenstein is about mankind´s striving for superiority and its fatal outcomes. Dr. Frankenstein wants to surpass the laws of nature by bringing a dead body to life again.

JUSTICE LEAGUE (The Movie): A couple of heroes alone don’t save this (movie) world.
Don’t get me wrong. I like the DC heroes. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman. You name it. But JL was a disappointment to me. And I did not come unprepared.
ALLIED: Loving that Spy (movie) [My short movie review]
I went to see Allied with Brad Pitt and Marion Cotillard the other day. I was very pleasently surprised by this spy World War II drama/thriller.
Roundhouse all the way: My Top 5 Jean-Claude Van Damme Movies
It’s the same as with Arnold, Sylvester and Dolph: I’ve always liked Jean-Claude Van Damme. I have been watching the Belgian fighter’s movies for over three decades now. I admit: he did a lot of bad stuff (Street Fighter to name only one film), mediocre things (In Hell and pretty much everything low-budget in the […]
LUKE CAGE: Un-CAGE a MARVELous series!
I most admit that I am DC guy. Superman and Batman do a better job for me. On and off the screen. Well at least until DC’s “Batman vs. Superman” came out, but that is another story. I DO watch all of the Marvel stuff on the big screen as I am a movie geek. […]
SUICIDE SQUAD: Dark is good, mediocre CGI is not
I’m a huge superhero fan. So this is pretty much my decade, as superhereo movies have been en vogue for quite some time now. Now they made the Suicide Squad into a movie. This seemed logical after Deadpool and the Christian Bale Batman movies. Dark-toned anti-hero movies find its audience. I watched David Ayer’s movie […]
DIE GLORREICHEN SIEBEN: Wer zuletzt zieht/sieht, hat das Nachsehen
Western sind so eine Sache. Entweder man liebt sie oder man hasst sie. Hat entweder Spiel mit das Lied vom Tod als Smartphone-Klingelton oder wechselt schnell zum Homeshopping-Kanal, wenn die Pistolenhalfter auf der Mattscheibe umgeschnallt werden. Ich für meinen Teil finde (gut gemachte) Western toll. Erbarmungslos von Clint Eastwood war eine Offenbarung. Und der Western […]

Meeting Arnold (June 2015)
My wife and I had the opportunity to travel to Berlin on June 21, 2015, to attend the Europe premiere of Terminator Genisys. The man himself was there as well: Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger. A once-in-a-lifetime experience for a true fan. 🙂 Watch the video on my YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIAPgG-60qQ
