Those Who Wish Me Dead 2021
Review by Erhan Tan.
Taylor Sheridan, who wrote the screenplays for Hell or High Water and Sicario, managed to impress both critics and audience alike with his second feature Wind River. When he followed that with Yellowstone, one of the most watched TV series in the US, he became a household name in Hollywood. Many saluted him as the leading voice of the neo-western genre. So expectations were quite high for his new movie Those Who Wish Me Dead, led…

The Underground Railroad 2021
Review by Ekin Can Göksoy
The Underground Railroad, focuses on the little known details of a well known story. Barry Jenkins, who directed all the episodes also writes or countributes to screenplays of four episodes. The ten episode series could be considered as a faithful adaptation of the Whitehead's novel, and because of that, instead of following a single character, it has episodes that focus on different characters and different timelines. Jenkins, who constructs episodes almost as he is constructing…

Friends: The Reunion 2021
Review by Zeynep Pınar Uçar.
Friends: The Reunion, an episode we finally got after waiting for such a long time, underlines the fact that Friends has left it’s mark on an era just with it’s intimacy as it brings both the old friends from the show and the friends of the show together. The episode closes the door of an era in a way that is only relatable for the ones who once shared the story of Friends, for the last time, to never open back again.

The Woman in the Window 2021
Review by Zeynep Pınar Uçar
The Woman in the Window never takes the portrayal of it’s protagonist further than hysterical or unbalanced. The story which is already predictable, never gets blessed with sharp edges and always stays far from being mysterious.

Army of the Dead 2021
Review by Erhan Tan.
With it's lack of creativity and corny story, Army of the Dead fails to justify it's 148 minutes runtime. Viewers who stick until the end are in for a disappointment.
Even though Army of the Dead, a heist movie that takes places during a zombie breakout has as an interesting premise, Snyder fails to turn this premise into a decent story. As a matter of fact when we look at Zack Snyder's filmography, there is a…
