Great movie about two intelligent but emotionally broken / damaged people in the edge of society. The movie has a wry sense of humor. I found this kind of moderate humor to great in the movie. All in all it is a good combination of drama, humor and a bit of romance. 7 / 10 |

Cooties (2014)
A mysterious virus hits an isolated elementary school, transforming the kids into a feral swarm of mass savages. An unlikely hero must lead a motley band of teachers in the fight of their lives. Unfortunately another disappointing movie, the beginning is not bad but the rest of the film is not particulary funny 5/10 p.s.: there is another remake for Das Experiment, The Experiment (2010) starring Adrien Brody and Forest Whitaker however the original German film is definitely the best |

I did watch the original (German) movie-Das Experiment (2001) a several times.
And is a very good movie. Kind of frightening and depressing how people change in some specific environment. 9/10 |
