Bill Skarsgård movies to watch online

The Crow carries a certain aura of a curse—mainly due to the first version, released in 1994, which was marked by an on-set incident that killed the protagonist Brandon Lee. In this new version, arriving 30 years after the first adaptation, filmmaker Rupert Sanders (Snow White and the Huntsman) tries to dispel that aura and embraces the essence of the graphic novel, written by James O'Barr. To achieve this, Sanders flirts with an emo aesthetic as he tells the story of a young man (Bill Skarsgård) who falls madly in love with a girl (FKA twigs) in distress. As we know, she ends up dying, and the protagonist embarks on a relentless—and violent—quest for revenge. Skarsgård is far from having the biggest highlight of his career, somewhat overshadowed by the nearly unforgiving tone that the character demands, but he demonstrates physical commitment in the action scenes, which are reminiscent of what we've seen in the John Wick franchise and even Deadpool. Sanders shows tremendous difficulty in capturing the essence of love, the emotion that should permeate the entire story, lending a certain fragility to the plot. Even so, when the action starts, The Crow works very well—and leaves you excited to see more of this iconic character on screen.

At first glance, it's hard not to be impressed with the cast of 'The Devil All the Time'. Among other big names, Robert Pattinson, Tom Holland, Bill Skarsgård, Sebastian Stan, Mia Wasikowska, Eliza Scanlen, and Jason Clarke are on the screen. Whew. That's a lot of people. And yet, director and screenwriter Antonio Campos—who wrote the script alongside his brother, Paulo Campos—manages to mix all these great names into an interesting plot, albeit not entirely cohesive and somewhat dragged out. But in the end, the mix of elements such as violence and religiosity ends up raising the plot to a higher level, touching on the thorny issue of faith and reminding us of the excellent 'Sinister', with Ethan Hawke. In short, it's a complicated, intricate feature film. But in the end, the reflection and the issues that arise make up for it.

Adaptation of Stephen King's great terror epic by director Andy Muschietti. With more than a thousand pages in the literary version, the feature film brings only the first part of the original story - exchanging the 1950s for the 1980s, as well as other changes. A plot about the loss of innocence and the discovery of fear of death, although not with the same brilliance of the original version or the 1980s TV adaptation. Special mention to Bill Skarsgård, who is really scary.

Throughout the whole John Wick saga, one thing can be said about its fourth movie: it's grander, more exaggerated and crazier compared to its predecessors, but also much longer. In John Wick: Chapter 4, the protagonist (Keanu Reeves) must face the entire world again with fewer allies by his side to defeat High Table of the assassin world and finally be free. Due to its length, it can be a bit tiring and some scenes stretch the little credibility of its action sequences to the limit. However, these last ones are truly spectacular and certainly rank among the best not only of the franchise, but of all contemporary action cinema. Read more in our full review.
