"Last Breath" 31 days before German release
A disaster movie in an unusual setting. A saturation diver who does maintenance work on an oil pipeline has an accident out of bad luck and needs to be rescued by his colleagues while his oxygen runs out. Based on true events and a prior documentary by the same director, this was a tense, but a bit conventional film.[Jan] Roughale:

"The Last Show Girl" 3 days before German release
57-year old Shelly (Pamela Anderson) has to come to terms with the fact that her show will be closing down. It's quite a simple story and I found the script lacking in some points, but the casting of Pamela Anderson in the lead was a really good move: An actress, which was reduced to her looks plays a character, which is also reduced to her looks for her job. But here she can show that she is a capable actress. Dave Bautista also showed more depth in his performance than usual.[Jan] Roughale:

"Riff Raff" 17 days before German release
When his ne'er-do-well son and his ex-wife arrive unannounced at an ex-Hitmans (Ed Harris) holiday retreat, it obviously means danger. They are on the run from a gangster (cast against type: Bill Murray), who applied the services of Ed Harris' character. His new family doesn't really know about his past. The film has a much more comedic tone than being a thriller. The first half has more jokes that fall flat, but when the second half arrives and the plot is moving, the film delivers decent amounts of fun.[Jan] Roughale:

"The Critic" 10 days before German release
Sir Ian McKellen switches sides and plays a sharp-tongued and feared theater critic in the 1930s in London. When he gets fired from his newspaper, he uses the help of an actress (Gemma Arterton) he regularly ripped to shreds in his critiques to get revenge on his publisher (Mark Strong) for his firing. A thematically interesting story, but the screenplay juggles around with too many side elements to keep the story engaging. The great cast makes it watchable.[Jan] Roughale:

"I Like Movies" 31 days before German release
This little movie is a discovery. Lawrence Kweller (Isaiah Lehtinen) is a difficult "kid", someone you don't necessarily have to like. He loves movies and wants to study film, but usually gets in the way of himself and his environment. As the story unfolds, we begin to understand the reasons behind his behavior. In the end, it's a feel-good movie after all, thanks to its well-developed characters and our eventual connection with Lawrence.[Dennis] Dennis:

"Love Hurts" 17 days before German release
Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan ("Everything Everywhere All at Once") gets cast again as an unusual action hero in "Love Hurts" with an Oscar nominee (Ariana DeBose) . Marvin Gable (Quan) works in a real estate agency, but in a former life he was a henchman for a mob boss, who has unfinished business with Gable's love interest (DeBose) . On Valentine's Day his past is catching up with him. The film was directed by a stuntman and is only interested in the - deliberately silly- action sequences. The characters and the story are mere window dressing for the action, which adds no dramatic weight to any of those sequences.[Jan] Simon:
