But with the first real Slovenian full-length horror film Idila, after a long time something other than drama is coming to the cinema screens.

The list of the most visually beautiful films of all time is a real treat for lovers of aesthetics. Film history is full of films where the colors and scenography explode and where the emphasis on the external image of the film is at least as important as on the story itself and the elaboration of the characters. Some directors even rely on it too much and try to use it like powder for pimples to hide the flaws of the film. But these are waters for film critics. We only give you beautiful things because we know you love them.
The same level of madness and adrenaline. The other driver. This is the shortest possible synopsis of the new movie from the Transporter series, subtitled The Transporter: Refueled. Jason Statham handed over the steering wheel to another Brit, Ed Skrein, while he himself preferred to focus on another franchise - Mechanic. Although Skrein had big shoes to fill, judging by the trailer, there is no reason to fear that the fourth film in the series will fail the test.
Even though we haven't encountered Aliens in real life, that hasn't stopped the movie industry, let alone our imaginations, from imagining them in a thousand and one images. We drew them as children, and the seventh art has poured into the canvas countless times in the form of Aliens. Sometimes they are downright diabolical, sometimes the similarities with humans are more than obvious, thirdly they are monsters, and we could go on and on. But why list when you can see everything in a film compilation that walks through 113 years of film history of Aliens.
Daring chases, witty observations, femme fatales and changing locations as a flag. The new "feature-length" trailer for Specter has all the makings of a James Bond movie. In excerpts from the 24th film of the spy franchise about agent 007, Aston Martin and Jaguar also get their place under the sun.
Is The Revenant finally the film that will bring Leonardo DiCaprio, one of the greatest actors of his generation, the coveted Oscar? The recipe seems right, because the Oscar-winning director Alejandro González Iñárritu (Birdman) sat in the director's chair of the adventure film from 1820 about a hunter who, after being attacked by a bear, is robbed by his henchmen and left for dead. If we add the fact that DiCaprio also stars Tom Hardy (Mad Max - Fury Road) and that Leo rarely chooses a bad role, we are in for a real cinematic treat.
Special effects are one of the specialties of the film industry, and Hollywood's eternal fascination with them has led to incredible results, due to which we witness breathtaking scenes on the movie screens. But the special effects were not always in the film's favor. In recent years, the use has gone too far, so many directors resort to techniques from the past for authenticity, but we found a compilation of scenes where the filmmakers laughed outright with the use of digital effects.
The biographical comedy-drama Joy is a mini-anniversary for the Silver Linings Playbook team, as director David O. Russell, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper and Robert De Niro reunite.

At the beginning of this September, the second edition of the FilmMixer film festival in the old town center of Kranj will mix the film scene with different films.

It ended once again among comic book fans. In San Diego, at the comic festival Comic-Con, which was flooded by fans of series, comics and movies, studio Warner Bros. presented the first trailer for the highly anticipated film Suicide Squad about a group of infamous villains who must cooperate in exchange for honor and a cleared name in risky operations, which, last but not least, betrays their name - Deadly Squad.
