  A cliche, but there's more! Actually, not really. Squared Love of Netflix, also knows as Milosc do kwadratu, was a Netflix suprise for sure. The movie is starring Adrianna Chlebicka and Mateusz Banasiuk. The movie follows a classic romantic feel good vibe with a standart, strict plot, totally open for cliches. (And you know how much we love those!) In the end, we kinda had to watch it just for that. Anyways, the movie follows Monika and Enzo on their journey called acting. Enzo is a womanizer, whatever that means. Monika is a hardworking, papa loving, trust giving angel/teacher. Monika is teaching a class as her day job, but that's not enough to pay her father's debt to some mafia thug, so she also becomes an actress. (Yep, just like that) She shoots photos for magazines, and acts in ads mostly. She's not happy being an actress though, because she thinks her father wouldn't be so happy about that, for.. some reason. So as expected from a romantic cliche, she has t...

 There's always a more creative way to scam people and make a fortune out of it, the world is changing you see. I Care A Lot shows the viewer just that.. well, and beyond. Meet Marla Grayson (One and only Rosamund Pike), the woman behind the idea of abusing the guardianship once and for all. Marla is a court-appointed legal guardian who cares a lot about the ones under her wings, well, to the judge's information that is. You see, she actually is a.. uhm... a scammer. She basically has a web of business, which has a doctor and a caring facility manager in it. She uses this web to simply get some old people into daycare and isolate them from their families, and estates of course, and then just.. rob them blind. A perfect scam isn't it? Well, her latest ward is a cherry, a moneymaker. No family, no relatives, it's a golden cow. But is it?  Starring Rosamund Pike as lovely businesswoman/scammer Marla Grayson, and Peter Dinklage (Yes, from Game Of Thrones) as the scary, yet...

 Upload, the newcomer, well, was the newcomer when this review was writter, to Amazon Prime Video is an amusing afterlife show brought to us by the very own of "The Office", Greg Daniels. Upload is an Amazon original. Upload, at the time of writing this review, has 10 episodes aired on the platform. This review was written after screening all 10. The second I started watching Upload, I started comparing it to some other shows on the afterlife concept. Now I see that this wasn't a healthy judgement, since Upload is not like most of them. But I can also say, after finishing the first season that it also is a pretty similar plot. Let me explain. Well, the afterlife concept is a bit different than others, since this afterlife is not a heaven/hell concept, like in "The Good Place" but it's a virtual reality, a kind of digital reincarnation. Yet, the digital afterlife is literally a digital heaven created by earthlings. The customer service reps are called angels ...

 Hello fellow mortals, We know that for the last few months we were distant, but this wasn't only a case for CineMortals. We had no social life in the last few months, we were basically textbook eating plants. We, the writers of Cinemortals, are also students, and in the last month we had to face final exams and other university related priorities. So, as stated, this little hiatus of ours was because of our academic studies and sadly we are short in staff, therefore we had to take a break.  This, is the only reason we were absent, and it will always be the only reason for our absence. As long as we have this opportunity to write about our love, cinema, we will.  In a discussion, we decided that we should get more writers here in CineMortals. We will, as soon as we can, edit the Join Us page and add our writer openings in there. So if you're interested in writing reviews, news or stories on cinema for the mortals, watch out for that!  We watched A LOT in this hiat...
