Movie reviews of Ulkar Alakbarova

There are not many documentaries that would take such an interesting approach, to explore the human aspect of life, tell multiple stories within one story. Review

The screenplay combines three different important subject matters in one film but sadly never reaches its logical conclusion. Review

Because it’s uplifting, wicked, and so beautifully simple that even though it touches upon a heavy concept, you will feel lighter and comfortable throughout. Review

Lost Holiday is lacking the passionate storytelling that could’ve taken this piece further than they could anticipate. Review

It’s wicked, intelligent, so damn relevant yet mind-blowing. Review

But what prevails the most in Knight’s full of twist film is the serene mind, plentiful imagination, and the opportunity that must be taken when the chance to redeem the past and correct mistakes is being offered. Review

Jonathan is a very disturbing, profoundly deep and very concerning subject matter; honestly speaking, it was quite terrifying to follow too. Review

A Dog’s Way Home is an excellent family adventure drama that will send everyone into deep awe. Review

Glass has everything you need to enjoy your two hours – a bit of humor, intense storyline, action scenes, and even a love story. Review

Hollywood on Trial is an excellent way to make a trip back to history, to hear perspectives of each individual, the series of interviews, archival footages of the Congress, and what happened to those who got blacklisted for their view. Review

Destroyer is an excellent crime thriller filled with a mind-blowing performance. Review

Mary Poppins Returns is all what we needed to have our souls dance throughout, singing along and appreciate family even more. Review

In terms of acting, Bryan Cranston and Nicole Kidman share some sweet moments, where, I must admit, I have never seen Nicole Kidman the way she was in Burger’s film. Review

Buffalo Boys despite being extremely violent, is somehow enjoyable and an absolutely entertaining film to watch. Review

Bird Box brings a delightful freshness to the horror collection, by turning it into an exquisite piece of filmmaking that touches upon a new era of post-apocalyptic world none would ever want to be part of. Review

The concept of Unfriended: Dark Web is as great as its predecessor. Review

The cast, of course, did an amazing job by breathing voice into these amazingly cool characters that felt more alive than it is possible to describe. Review

Thanks to Steve Carell’s remarkably moving performance, the journey you’re about embark yourself on is a travel into the wonderful mind of one man who knew there is only one way to go when you finds yourself down – up. Review

Beside the solid performances delivered by Felicity Jones and Armie Hammer, it still was the show of Mimi Leder who allowed her directorial work to deliver its own performance. Review

Despite having a stellar cast, the film misses its aim, leaving us without much excitement. Review

All these problems still persist whether we want it or not. That’s why Mariam Khatchvani’s film is so powerful, relevant and absolutely honest. Review

Every family has its own story to share whether it’s good or bad. But what we do with it after facing it is fate, just like an inheritance that must be dealt in a very delicate way, the same way you see in Haupt’s movie. Review

As for the performance, which is the bigger issue with the film, it was not good enough to keep my attention throughout the film. Review

The film itself is beautiful, visually stunning. Review
