Review shatters. Batman: The Long Halloween, Part One – 51 minutes.

Nolan still a man who did the most abysmal with Batman and Christian Bale still worst who suited in a titular hero. I like this character, because he’s a superhero with no supernatural abilities as usually comic personages have them and nothing without them. His initial human gives empathy. Batman is old merchandise, which can see everywhere: comics, films, cartoons, games, but I don’t find attractive and nice. Batman: The Long Halloween didn’t reveal disappointing as it usually in anything. 

I like drawing and stylistic in 30s or beginning of 40s, a time when Batman appeared and that is a very interesting idea to use all base for that period, but further appearing contemporary elements make misunderstanding about when it goes. Curious decisions in directing will finish soon and it will become guessable staging. Attention to screenplay will asking of unanswered questions to where initially not interesting to see what was hundred times before as Harvey Dent before Two-Face and known Joker who never was a mesmerizing villain for me.

I more hope that release of titled as Schumacher Cut of Batman Forever will happen. Of course, I adore craziness in neon in director’s films, but I curious to initial dark, which can see in available videos.

Review shatters. The Last Mercenary – 55 minutes.

It doesn’t mean who in production, but a film by Netflix is always generic. A describing con for characteristic. Jean-Claude Van Damme hasn’t fine film since 2015, but I still watch almost every his film accurate to credits. Not every great actor has this thing today. Director and scriptwriter David Charhon in attention for acceptable De l'autre côté du périph (2012). Personal expectations were generic and I’ve got of what I expected. 

Serious for be a comedy. Unacceptable serious for absurd in right demonstration. I’ve got in fifteen minutes that action and scenes are stretched. It doesn’t need of almost two hours. I didn’t understand of ongoing and didn’t catch conversations. Everything was a psychiatric hospital by normal people. Unknown, but definitely a skilled performer Philippe Morier-Genoud did weird in playing of a general. The film collapses to be funny. And by that grimaces and slow pronouncing take odd place and look awkward. Perhaps, had a place of French humor, which isn’t for me, because too much look alike of flat and low point things. I had exceptions in laughing while funny was in exaggerated sounds usually were using for breaking of part of body. 

I don’t want to parse a foolishness of a screenplay. 80s Miami where primary attention to Scarface with Al Pacino shares director’s presumable likes with mine, but nothing exclusive from Charhon who rarely gave a good shot and made excellent fight in bath. More distraction I had to demonstration of nowadays things as Instagram culture, these millennials in faces, thinking, acting and et cetera of my usual express of disgust to modern.
I did estranged things in watching. Listened embedded One Way or Another in chase scene. Looked on Paris. Wrote words for this film review. Impression by plenty in acting and smooth kicking of Jean-Claude Van Damme and a capital of France, which sometimes showed unattractive districts hold for so long. 

A film for association was La Totale! by Claude Zidi, which is a comedy about spies. It has an excellent humor and can in one to be a serious and sneer at espionage. Not so far ago I rewatched L’Operaion Corned-Beef and I can tell that if I’ll do it again now – I will still loudly laugh. That’s Jean-Marie Poire. I like his quick directing.

Chronicles of Second Cold War. 0?/??/2021.

-/-classified-/- 

Joe Biden in usual sold up and gave up in fight for cancellation of inevitable Nord Stream 2, which currently finished on 98 per cent, in meeting with Angela Merkel in the White House. An unexplained deal between sides, which supposes personal interests. A clearance was that an American president stops to impose sanctions relating to a project. 

I don’t believe in success of Cuban protests, which erupted in July 11 and goes on. I had a distaste when Fidel visited the United States when he must be taken in custody. Restoration relationship with Cuba was one of all Obama’s decisions, which all were worst. I still don’t believe in sanctions, but efforts of Donald Trump’s presidency made these protests. It’s never good when hunger, poor economical state and regime’s actions to COVID-19 pandemic in current situation instigated protests. Not in wish to overthrew a tyranny. No doubt to influence of entered Internet united them and that’s why regime blocked it. I more confident that soft (or diplomatic.) approach of Miguel Diaz-Canel who had meeting with disagreement people is more caused, because Cuba hadn’t riots in economic downfall of 90s under Fidel Castro. And not so many people who don’t storm regime’s objects and only express disagreement. Just thousands of large 11,1 million population. Communists organized marching of people in own support where, definitely, have participants gathered by force, warning to lost a place and, possibly, little of money as were and are in other dictatorship countries. Marquis Astolphe de Custine, as I like to mention him, described in his journey that people praising any representor of emperor’s family are chosen. In my personal observation of listening of them revealed they don’t care on politics what means I see a slave or supporting of a dictator. About Cuba again.

  

It’s an unfinished issue of Chronicles of Second Cold War still awaiting new events, which, certainly, will come. I decided to hide the first news and, perhaps, my thoughts about Cuba willn’t in final edition. I did all that because I knew that it’s too good for not to be a book. Actually, without egoism, I initially planned to publish this piece in sometime and I found a possible way to do it. Of course, as a man without published books, Chronicles of Second Cold War is a thing has a previous background, which it would be correct to release first what I would like to do and who knows, but these texts written in Russian as my two fiction stories and other few projects, which all of them I definitely would show before too. I’ll try with that I have in English. I see a moment to where is right to finish with Chronicles of Second Cold War, which, as event, of course, continues and new issues exceptionally will in the book. I wrote few articles there, which also can only see on my computer and you must be one of my dogs or cats for get access to read it. Currently, I’m in thinking to write more, which, maybe, will be possible to find in the book. 

P.S. Believe me, this is not because I want finally to buy a llama and call him Fred.
