Anabela Belikova


 

Salt and Fire (2016)


 
A scientist blames the head of a large company for an ecological disaster in South America. But when a volcano begins to show signs of erupting, they must unite to avoid a disaster. 
 

Despite an interesting cast (including physicist Lawrence Krauss!) and admittedly great landscape cinematography this Werner Herzog adventure disappoints with lame performances and a pretentious, uninspired plot with a failed message.

The Straw Man (1953)


 
An insurance investigator investigates murderer on Death Row, insured by his company.


OK, but other mediocre crime mystery doesn't create much suspense despite a promising premise.
