The Calendar Killer is a German Prime Video thriller that is so needlessly overstuffed with plot and characters for a flick where I couldn’t care less about the plot or characters. With a better written script, all the plot and … Continue reading
I barely remember anything about the first Den of Thieves and nothing about this sequel encouraged me look it up. About all I remember is that I thought it was kind of boring and overstuffed with macho bullshit. The sequel … Continue reading
