Social drama film. A great story of a young man who meets the love of his life and as soon as she tells him that she wants to go far to study, he tries to find a purpose in life, something to continue... He joins the army and the things he will face there as well as his subsequent drug addiction and the criminal life that he will continue are finally his biggest mistakes... A story that on the one hand shows the harsh image of the war and the army, on the other shows the drug addicts who die slowly day by day. In all this, it shows the true love of two young people who go through the difficulties together and approach death together... It's a pretty long movie, it could be shorter possibly, since at times it gets a bit tiring, but what it wants to achieve at least in terms of the criminal life and the "dead ends"of drug addicts it does. Tom Holland, although he does not look like a criminal, shows how a romantic young man can make wrong choices and does it very well in his role. Overall quite a good movie and generally achieves its goals. Not too dramatic overall, has also some light moments, so it is not too heavy for the majority of people, which is good.

Action movie / adventure. This is another film about a heist of valuables, in this case the legendary golden eggs of Cleopatra. As with most films in the genre, it has plenty of action and adventure, very good direction and scenery in luxury houses, in the jungle, in old abandoned basements, etc., with an unusual trinity, the classic cool character of adventure "The Rock", the charming but also very smart and powerful 'Wonder Woman' and the comic athyrostomus "Deadpool" in an ancient treasure hunt! Despite the opposing interests and the conflicts between them, eventually either the two of them or all three of them will be forced to cooperate and the cooperation will be followed by betrayal and change of side with pot twists. A film that does not want to become as serious as the classic Indiana Jones or other films of the genre, the athyrostomy of "Deadpool" could have been excluded though, as well as the excessive humorous element in from time to time, as the adventure alone was more than enough to earn the interest of the watchers. Nice recommendation to spend some relaxed time and enjoy, but due to the athyrostomy of the never serious Reynolds is not recommended for families or young children.

Social drama film. It is the Prequel of the 101 Dalmatian dogs where it is slightly based on the first film and uses some characters but with several variations. Unlike the 2 movies with Dalmatian dogs, Cruella is not a humorous / family movie but has more social character, with a tendency towards drama. Young Estella is a poor girl with a brave and untamed character that is not given to anyone, she will hit back her bullies, but also defend others when they are attacked. This part already shows messages against bullying. This little girl though wants much more, she dreams to become a fashion designer, feels she belongs to the fashion field. The rest of her life brings huge reversals and she struggles alone to stand on her feet, she eventually gets some friends and later she manages to get closer and closer to her dream that is the fashion field. There things are even harder and when she discovers an astonishing truth, she gets blinded from anger and hatred and turns entirely to the cruel and strict Cruella de Vil we know from the next films. The whole story of Estella is a survival journey initially in a cruel world and then the fight for the dream of a little girl. Her life has its up and down and though it has mainly dramatic character and reminds somewhat the classic story of Oliver Twist, there are some bright moments where she gets closer to the conquest of her goal until she has her own House of Fashion, and also her characteristic car and her remote castle we met from classic films. Excellent direction, very well made scenery of old times, great performances from the two "opponents" Emma Stone and Emma Thompson, nice effects in the difficult scenes and in total a serious movie with a social character. But a movie that leads to the viewer to take the part of Estella, as opposed to the classic films we know, and also a movie that changes several characters of the first film resulting in plot incompatibility with the Dalmatians movies, so it is recommended not as a prequel but more as an independent movie. A journey of a poor girl for survival and dreaming! It is recommended to everyone.
