The Entity is heavy shit
5 second plot: A beautiful young woman is brutally raped by an invisible entity. Is she losing her mind or is this thing for real?
5 second review: This movie grabs you by the throat from the get go and doesn't let go until the end credits roll. It's gruesome to see this woman being tormented but it's brilliantly filmed and portrayed. Special kudos to the sound mixer: this guy is intense.
IMDb score: 6,6/10
Our score: 9/10

Gandhi is one hell of a biography
5 second plot: It's the biography of the man in the title, from his young years as a lawyer in South Africa to his death in his motherland India. He wanted the world to be a better place, with everyone living peacefully side by side. He conquered a lot of hearts and made the world a little bit better by being who he was.
5 second review: I could almost not believe that everything in the movie really actually happened. But shamefully... it did. It is an amazing story and it couldn't have been told better. But he is pictured as a bit of a drama queen, no? The clothes, the walk, the talk,... Did I just call this amazing man a drama queen? Sorry 'bout that.

1990: The Bronx Warriors is one of those movies
5 second plot: A rich girl from Manhattan flees to the Bronx where several gangs rule the streets. An evil corporation/the cops have plans to turn the gangs against each other and clean house.
5 second review: You can only enjoy this if you like '80s Italian sci-fi old school VHS memorabilia. It's fun to be able to say that you watched the movie, but it's not always a pleasant experience to be watching it. The most bizarre thing for me is the posture of the lead character 'Trash'. The way he stands, walks, fights or even rides a motorcycle is one of the weirdest thing I have ever seen in a movie. It looks like he's trying to hold onto something between his butt-cheeks the entire time.

Blade Runner is extraordinary
5 second plot: Deckard is a blade runner in a futuristic Los Angeles. He has to track down and kill four replicants.
5 second review: It all looks a bit retro and the story moves along way too slow for a modern audience, but it's still very awesome and mega cool. This is not only thanks to the extraordinary visuals but also because of the interesting ensemble of actors. They all look great. If possible, you should try to see this movie on a big screen.
