Бойни кораби / Battleship - Whatever way you look at it, Battleship is a crap movie but still has one virtue - watching it you may just realise that no matter how maligned the Transformers franchise is, at least Michael Bay knows how to orchestrate action. And watching robots fighting is fun. Watching the Navy being glorious and kicking the ass of alien intruders (possible intruders as their motives are never explained) is not. In its core Battleship is a film made to be viewed as an advertising card for the Army as there is no single positive character who hasn't come from its rows. Oh, and all the others - scientists or aliens are really really bad... Still some set pieces look magnificent, while observing Rihanna growling can be amusing, but the movie at the end lacks humour, it is deprived of memorable characters and has a too simplistic plot. In other words, it possesses all the qualities to turn into a guilty pleasure in the future. Nevertheless, a must-see Battleship is not. (Forum Film) **
Жената в черно / The Woman In Black - It's great that even in the times of Saws and Final Destinations, a classic Gothic-vibed horror thriller can hit the screens (and especially the Bulgarian ones). The newest production of legendary Hammer studio benefits first from its Victorian setting, with the English countryside looking extremely menacing. Second, its director James Watkins manages masterfully to deliver slow-burning terrors and to make use of every single shot. With the attention towards detail meticulous and the fantastic work of cinematographer Tim Maurice-Jones, the movie is really scary without being disgusting with gore moments. In addition, the plot manages to surprise at times and last, but definitely not least, the film lies on the shoulders of Daniel Radcliffe as it marks his first post-Potter role. And the former wizard boy proves to all naysayers that he really has the acting chops. The planned sequel is a mistake though. (Alexandra) ****
