She Came to Me (2023) - Rated 09 Jun 2025
"An intriguing story - really wanna have a tug boat experience in some way! While the movie isn't bad per se, the writing feels a bit all over and characters seem a bit out of place sometimes. It's a weirdly done film, honestly. Not the one for high ratings but definitely hits a nice spot in the heart every now and then. Some amazing cinematography, too."
King Richard (2021) - Rated 25 May 2025
"Such a magnificent portrayal of the prodigies' childhood. I don't know how many of it is true but it's a nice story with actual results. Of course when it's minorities and especially black people it couldn't go without the KKK and all the cliché anectodes that come with it (like the start quote). Ending is a bit weak and fast but the whole journey of raising remarkable talent is a nice experience, especially if you are into tennis which was technically done well."
This Must Be the Place (2011) - Rated 13 May 2025
"Eclectic and exciting right up to the end, to that God awful humiliation ritual. Were it not for that this movie would be certainly one of this year's personal highlights. I did feel inspired even though the film gets a bit lost in direction where it wants to go. Penn's performance is stellar! And generally the vibe is great, endless Jewish revenge and anger aside. Easily 90+ if not for that."
Sparta (2022) - Rated 06 May 2025
"I had a slight feeling of being suffocated during the film due to its deafening realism and a good portrayal of unfulfilled desires. The Romanian winter with its eastern European post-communism vibes in the first half certainly did not help - even more, it helped create the hopeless feeling, the dread of it all. Overall an interesting experience of a heavy subject that was somehow done well enough to introduce the topic in a watchable, even masterful way."
Pitch Perfect (2012) - Rated 12 Apr 2025
"Is this how girls live their lives? One of very very rare films that starts in a horrible way and approximately in the middle, the battle part, it starts to creep under your skin and by the end I was rather pleasantly surprised. I bursted out laughing couple of times but there was also a huge amount of cringe so can't really give a 90+ rating. Overall, a pleasant surprise for what seemed a 50. Loved the fat girl!"
Aloha (2015) - Rated 07 Apr 2025
"What have we just watched? A movie with too many plots that just don't work. I will forever love Crow for Almost Famous but this was unwatchable mix of army propaganda, bad comedy, and space privatism critique, colonialism etc that just doesn't work. It seemed like a parody of a parody, and in the end you get nothing."
The Secret World of Arrietty (2010) - Rated 07 Apr 2025
"The Ghibli world is just so comfortable and comforting to see that you ignore all the little mistakes that would've bothered you in any other production house, like a bit underdeveloped story. Magical and immersive, definitely to be re-watched again."
The Zone of Interest (2023) - Rated 23 Mar 2025
"Due to circumstances I had to watch this on my phone, horrible. Wonderful movie though, the eerily atmosphere was created with some background scenes and wonderful sound design. Wonderful cinematography. The film moves fast but when it slows down it slows down to the point you are enchanted and time comes to a stop. Poetic Nazism, love it. Rewatching on a home projector at some point in future."
O Jerusalem (2006) - Rated 23 Mar 2025
"Firstly, I don't trust the story for obvious reasons. Director is French Israeli. In the light of ongoing Gaza holocaust it casts a horrible shadow. I liked the seed of peace part at the end, which doesn't seem likely in the foreseable future given the atrocities by the Nationalsocialism armzy and people of Israel."
Renfield (2023) - Rated 13 Mar 2025
"I'm starting to see that Cage is a like a fine wine, the older I get the more I like him. Also Hould did a decent job. However, the rest of the cast is extremely questionable and what could be a witty comedy (comparable to the ones like What we do in the shadows) is reduced to exaggerated gore, subpar writing and overly done film. Oh well, another Dracula film I don't think I'll be watching anytime soon, but was also quite fun!"
