Movie reviews of Ulkar Alakbarova

The film, I should warn you, is filled with graphic sex scenes that really do not help in character development. The idea itself is excellent – no doubt about that. Execution is perfect. Undoubtedly. The rest of the scenes could be easily cut out and left in the dark. Review

I grant, maybe it’s just me who did not understand it, and I always try to give the filmmakers the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately, not in this case. Review

The Pod Generation is a funny film with a thought-provoking concept. Review

With an exceptional performance by Gael Garcia Bernal, and how he embodies Cassandro, capturing his strength and weaknesses, and how, despite the hatred of crows, he reinvents himself for good. Review

Be prepared for an extremely intimate documentary of Michael J. Fox and the tough road he left behind as he continues to conquer it with life-threatening disease as a superhero. Review

It’s a sad story of redemption that comes at a certain price. It’s a hard dilemma Ricky must face, but under the circumstances, will he do what is right or remain the person society would expect an ex-offender to be? Review

Shayda emphasises the importance of having an open discussion about domestic violence and what the system does to not let it happen again. Review

Radical offers a heartwarming real-life encounter between a teacher who found an extraordinary way to help troubled children to gain knowledge at school. Review

Slow, written and directed by Marija Kavtaradze, offers a complicated emotional connection of one being with another. Due to the undeniable chemistry between actors Greta Grinevičiūtė and Kęstutis Cicėnas, the film works perfectly, as both Elena and Dovydas turn their experience into larger than life. Review

The Night Logan Woke Up is a limited series done with taste. Review

Director Ahmad Alyaseer delivers an outstanding job by showcasing the cultural differences that are really not far from the western world. Review

It’s a sad story. Shocking and thought-provoking. Review

It’s a decent short film that allows the filmmaker to explore the human connection during brief moments. Review

Andrea Riseborough and Stephen Graham are a perfect match. Review

Perhaps, that is what makes M3GAN so good, interesting, thought-provoking, and darn good horror flick you will enjoy, trust me on that. Review

When You Finish Saving the World is a predictable drama with a solid performance by Julianne Moore, while the rest of the cast, including Finn Wolfhard, failed to capture the essence of Ziggy. Review

It’s a harrowing story with a price none of us would like to pay. Review

Martin McDonagh delivers the best black tragicomedy in decades. Colin Farrell provides the performance of a lifetime, including the body language of his character, that will leave you in awe. Review

The film marks Lee Jung-jae's first directorial debut with an excellent spy thriller that will take your breath away. Review

Written by Ron Oliver and Jeff Bonnett and directed by Janeen Damian, Falling for Christmas is a worthwhile piece that will make you smile. Review

As for the performance, what can I say other than Evan Peters has got me. He got me to the point where I want to punch him through the screen. Review

It’s excellent and thought-provoking and invokes all the fears you may get in case you find yourself in the same situation. Review

Todd Field provides a very detailed insight into the backstage of ‘cancel’ culture and what it does to its victim. Review

Through his determination, we see a different perspective of the A 752 flight, and that is something what the title said already – 752 is not just a number and that is something the Iranian government, thanks to Hamed Esmellion, won’t ever forget. Review
