Mehnificent

As a fan of both action-packed films and intricate storytelling, I approached Tokyo Revengers with a blend of anticipation and caution. Directed by Tsutomu Hanabusa and based on the beloved manga by Ken Wakui, this live-action adaptation stars a talented ensemble featuring Takumi Kitamura as the protagonist, Takemichi Hanagaki, alongside Yuki Yamada, Yosuke Sugino, Mio Imada, and Ryo Yoshizawa. The film, categorized within the science fiction action genre, revolves around themes of friendship, redemption, and the often tumultuous streets of Tokyo's gang scene.

Welcome to the cinematic world of "The Vault," a 2021 Spanish heist thriller that hangs around like that one friend who overstayed their welcome at a party. Directed by Jaume Balagueró, this film tries to get by on the classic tropes of the genre yet ends up taking the route less traveled—mostly because it’s lost and doesn’t know where it’s going.
