The third part of the popular comedy franchise "Not alone at Home" is not just a continuation of the story, but a real celebration of madness, where graduation becomes the arena for epic battles between the matured heroine Masha and her sworn enemy, the vengeful Babysitter. An insidious woman and a clever swindler Anton are going to disrupt the celebration.
The director brilliantly proves that even a familiar story about a school evening can be turned into a hilarious attraction with a cascade of unexpected twists. "Not Alone at Home 3. Graduation" is an example of how a franchise can evolve without losing its charm. There is everything here: witty dialogues, dynamic scenes, star guests and, most importantly, sincere love for the characters, who, despite all the twists and turns, remain close and understandable to the viewer.

Guy Ritchie's new crime action game will give viewers an adrenaline rush, complemented by the director's signature humor. The plot centers on an unusual team of debt hunters.

The main roles were played by Henry Cavill and Jake Gyllenhaal, who performed most of the dangerous stunts themselves, making the combat scenes realistic.

The idea for a new psychological thriller came to the author while watching an episode of The Simpsons (House of Horrors 2) about a magical monkey's paw. His story is about the line between love and obsession, where one desire can destroy an entire life.
In the center of the story is Bear, a romantic who has been harboring feelings for his childhood friend Nikki for years, but the girl sees in him only a good friend. In desperation, he finds a mysterious magic wand and makes a wish: to make Nikki fall in love with him. The dream comes true, but the price turns out to be terrifyingly high: the couple's relationship turns into a nightmarish whirlwind, where love is intertwined with madness, and every day brings new horrors. Bear realizes his fatal mistake, but it is impossible to turn back time.
