No Other Choice - Eojjeolsuga Eobsda     HD1080p 23MB
Full trailer for the latest movie directed by Park Chan-wook (Oldboy, Stoker, The Handmaiden). It's a darkly comic satire about a man (Lee Byung-hun) who is abruptly laid off by the paper company where he has worked tirelessly for many years. Soon he's falling behind on his mortgage payments and his wife (Son Ye-jin) insists they put the house up for sale. He's desperate to scoop a coveted position, but he knows there are other job seekers who match his pedigree. So he hatches a plan to eliminate the competition.
Looks very promising.

Mercy     HD720p 39MB
Sci-fi action thriller set in the near future, in which a detective (Chris Pratt) stands on trial accused of murdering his wife (Annabelle Wallis). He has 90 minutes to prove his innocence to the advanced A.I. Judge (Rebecca Ferguson) he once championed, before it determines his fate. Directed by Timur Bekmambetov (Wanted, Night Watch, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter).
Seems to unnecessarily give away some spoilerish information towards the end. If you would like to avoid, stop watching at the 2:30 mark.

Die My Love     HD1080p 25MB
Intense thriller drama that tells the story of Grace (Jennifer Lawrence) and Jackson (Robert Pattinson), who move from New York City to rural Montana. As they adjust to their new surroundings and welcome their first child, they are confronted with the complications of postnatal depression, the isolation of their new environment, and their unhappy marriage. Sissy Spacek, Nick Nolte and LaKeith Stanfield are also part of the cast. Directed by Lynne Ramsay (We Need to Talk About Kevin, You Were Never Really Here).
Festival reviews are mostly favourable, but it's obviously not an easy watch.

Nuremberg     HD1080p 27MB
Historical drama that chronicles the events that brought the Nazi high command to justice in the wake of World War II. The Allies, led by the unyielding chief prosecutor, Robert H. Jackson (Michael Shannon), have the task of ensuring the Nazi regime answers for the unveiled horrors of the Holocaust while a US Army psychiatrist (Rami Malek) is locked in a dramatic psychological duel with former Reichsmarschall Herman Göring (Russell Crowe). Richard E. Grant, Colin Hanks, Leo Woodall, John Slattery and Lotte Verbeek are also part of the cast.
I appreciate the reminder that political and military leaders can be held responsible for their crimes if the will exists, this feels a bit too much like a Hollywood movie that doesn't do the historical events justice.

Avatar: Fire and Ash     HD720p 38MB
A second trailer for the third installment of the 3D CGI franchise, listed to have a running time of 3h 12m, to be in theatres this Christmas, again directed by James Cameron (Titanic, True Lies, The Terminator). Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña)'s family grapples with grief after Neteyam's death, encountering a new, aggressive Na'vi tribe, the Ash People, who are led by the fiery Varang (Oona Chaplin), as the conflict on Pandora escalates and a new moral focus emerges. Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Kate Winslet, Jemaine Clement and Cliff Curtis also return.

Ballad of a Small Player     HD1080p 32MB
Trailer for the latest movie directed by Edward Berger (Conclave, All Quiet on the Western Front).

However, in hot pursuit is a private investigator (Tilda Swinton) – ready to confront him with what he is running from.
Festival reviews indicate that there's a lot of style, but not enough substance. After a brief theatrical run, will start streaming on Netflix starting October 29th. An article about Macau and the setting of the film.

Train Dreams     HD1080p 31MB
Drama based on the novella by Denis Johnson set in the Pacific Northwest. It's the moving portrait of Robert Grainier (Joel Edgerton), a logger and railroad worker who leads a life of unexpected depth and beauty in the rapidly-changing America of the early 20th Century. Felicity Jones, Kerry Condon, William H. Macy, Paul Schneider and Clifton Collins Jr. are also part of the cast, Will Patton narrates.
Probably not my kind of film, but it looks quite epic and it received highly favourable reviews. After a brief theatrical run, will start streaming on Netflix November 21st.

The Twits     HD1080p 37MB
Animated film adaptation based on a children's book by Roald Dahl. Two orphans join forces with a family of magical animals to save their city from the powerful Mr. and Mrs. Twit (Johnny Vegas, Margo Martindale), the meanest, smelliest, nastiest people in the world.
