While brains aren’t necessarily a prerequisite for movies like this, Force of Nature tends to abuse the privilege, which would be fine if it was efficiently paced and had characters we care about.

Enter The Fat Dragon (2020) Movie Review
Enter the Fat Dragon coasts on the novelty of its funny title and an action star willing to sit in the make-up chair a few more hours each day. Remove both and you still have the same plot, same characters and same jokes, funny or otherwise. The action and its star make the film watchable, though Donnie Yen is flirting with becoming Hong Kong’s own Nic Cage.
Body Cam (2020) Movie Review
I think ‘revenge fantasy’ is an accurate description. With no guarantee that any of the assholes recently caught-on-camera will face any meaningful consequences, the timing is perfect for a bit of ghostly retribution. As such, Body Cam dishes-out some vicarious justice and a few jolts along the way.
The Painted Bird (2019) Movie Review
While The Painted Bird tells a compelling story (based on a Jerzy Kosiński novel), it is also relentlessly sombre and frequently horrifying. It’s the kind of film that leaves the viewer emotionally drained and one most will be content to experience just once. But love it or hate it – I can’t imagine much middle ground – nobody is likely to forget it.
Sniper: Assassin’s End (2020) Movie Review
Assassin’s End is serviceable budget-conscious action fodder. A bit more plodding and less violent than the previous instalment (Sniper: Ultimate Kill), the film still has its moments, one particular highlight being a tension-filled, three-way sniper-stand-off, which sort of reminded me of the climax in The Good, the Bad and the Guy. Once again, Collins is decent-but-unremarkable in the lead role, while Berenger is mostly on-hand to continue franchise continuity.
We Summon the Darkness (2019) Movie Review
We Summon the Darkness is more of a brutal black comedy than pure horror. While there’s certainly enough tension and blood to keep the horror crowd happy, it’s just as often quite funny, albeit morbidly so.
