Kaliber: A valóság ösvénye

Nehéz kaliber. Pszichológiailag pontos, tökéletesen kiegyensúlyozott. Egyszerű történet, amely lassan, ügyesen épül fel a biztonságos nyugtalanságból a szoruló hurkon át, szigorú feloldozásig. (2020.05.08)

The theme of the film was excellent, the cast was perfect, and yet I can’t join in the general enthusiasm. The film was thrilling, the ending was far from predictable. The problem was that the creators stretched it out in such a long running time that the suspense got drowned in protracted boredom. At the end of the day, I realized that the fun/boredom ratio was more or less fifty-fifty, hence only three stars. (2020.08.14)

An unexpected surprise from Netflix! Two friends go hunting in the Scottish woods, but nothing goes according to plan, and something terrible happens with even more fatal consequences. I really didn't envy the main characters in this situation, and it made me quite uncomfortable to imagine it happening to me. A rough forest, a harsh setting, uncompromising hicks, a thick atmosphere, an oppressive tension, a lot of realism and a shocking finale. For me total satisfaction, these redneck forest thrillers were rampant in the 80s and now they're more of an afterthought, so I applaud, good job by Netflix. 80%. (2018.07.12)

A very decent thriller, which, I don't know why, easily reminded me of our Czech Vendeta (2011). Maybe because of its intimate character. In addition, I didn't even know the actors here, and yet they still managed to create some proper suspense, which made me bate my breath for almost two hours. It has to be said that the premise doesn’t make much sense right from the start and had the central duo used their brains, it would have led to a better ending. On the other hand, it’s good that the plot unraveled the way it did because all the rest fulfilled the thriller template in an exemplary fashion – including the overly dramatic finale. (2020.05.13)
