WELCOME TO MARWEN

Watchable. Sappy. Chaotic at first but deeply touching throughout. Too mushy though. Battle scenes are over the top which makes it hard to take it seriously. The fact it's based on real events from a living artist's life came as a big surprise. But it shows a true artist will always find a way to create, even with physical limitations. With cute, not looking 50 which she is, director's wife, Leslie Zemeckis, in the lead female role of the protagonist's love interest.

마녀 (THE WITCH: PART 1. THE SUBVERSION)

Watchable. I expected fantasy, turned out to be science fiction. The opening credits are important plot-wise. As the whole, the picture is too schematic, with over the top gore and unnatural movement in CGIs. At first it's not certain what genre it's going to be - might be crime. Info is revealed gradually which is a nice game with the viewer and engaging. In spite of the movie's numerous shortcomings I'm looking forward to part two.
