Movie reviews of Ulkar Alakbarova

Writer Matthew Fogel and director Kyle Balda turned Minions: The Rise of Gru into the funniest and most fulfilling piece to date. Review

The concept is great, impactful and very intellectual. In fact, the supernatural premise of it is absolutely astounding and the film itself is simply fantastic, to describe in short. Review

It is indeed an eye-opening portrait of life we take for granted; the life that gives us a lot yet takes away from others. Review

Nude Tuesday is an excellent film that shows the other side of marriage but with lots of graphic scenes, most certainly, not applied to be seen by the entire family. Review

Because through the cleverly constructed narrative and the sequence of interviews and the information it throws on you each second, you will watch it without a blink, perhaps, with tears coming down. Review

Alex Thompson and Christopher Thompson come up with a strong narrative in which they give life to the young doctor that could beat any of his superior with his vision. Review

Sparring Partner is an excellent short film that shows what kind of conversations two people must have before even thinking about beginning a romance. Review

It’s an average piece that won’t do much to convince you of its importance, even though big names are attached to it. Review

Craig Roberts’ film is all that you need to feel inspired, encouraged, courageous and brave toward the new changes, heights and achieving impossible tasks. Review

The Courtroom is a captivating court drama that revolves around a Filipina woman who must prove that she did not vote in the Congressional election knowingly and that it was just a mistake by a government official that led her to believe she must have been eligible to cast her vote. Review

The story itself is beautiful, therefore, it translates eloquently into this truly moving short film. Review

Veronique Jadin’s Employee of the Month is a brilliant take on workplace harassment and how perhaps it should be handled in the cinematic universe. Review

Triggered is the most shocking and thought-provoking film with a brutal approach, I must say, works, whether you agree with the solution provided or not. Review

It’s a refreshing, enlightening and important documentary that reveals too much information about the Irish Singer Sinead O’Connor who was not afraid of public or well-known misconception. Review

Peter Hengl builds up an excellent and dark psychological thriller, which leans towards horror but more through the characters that deliver their part skillfully. Review

If to leave an extremely intelligent and thought-provoking narrative, Jurassic World: “Dominion beats its predecessors by its stunning visual effects, fearsome creatures and a few head-to-head fights by dinosaurs that will most certainly take your breath away. Review

It is an enjoyable piece, and the entire credit must go to Elsa Pataky who is superb in every action sequence. Her physical readiness is astonishing. Review

Infinite Storm may not be one of the best survival films but it’s the most decent one made recently. It’s an easy watch without much overload. Review

It’s brilliant storytelling and eloquently narrated... Review

Firestarter could have gotten a better chance of survival if not, once again, for the poorly written script. Review

Into the Weeds” is a very detailed documentary that pretty much summarizes what may happen to people if there were not warned about products they use either at home or on a farm that is slowly killing them. Review

The Killing of a Journalist is nothing more but a testament to the strong power of a nation that, if it wants, can turn the whole country upside down and bring those that are guilty to a imminent justice. Review

Deeply moving and emotionally hard to process, the story points out once again to the big people, their inability to act, respond to the disease and do something about it. Review

Right from the beginning, the filmmaker does not shy away from her confession, as subtly and slowly she reveals the main premise of the film. Review
