Lords of Dogtown (2005) - Rated 18 Aug 2026
Not my favorite movie genre. When last watched Spanish movie "Mondays in the Sun" lacked only from visual storytelling, this movie had this part covered very well. Although, it felt like watching music video from MTV. Actors (specially late Heath Ledger) were enjoyable to watch. But, still, too much like overlong music video.

Mondays in the Sun (2002) - Rated 11 Aug 2026
Its a first Fernando León de Aranoa's movie i watched. It was really enjoyable. I truly like movies about ordinary people minding their own business. This story is not boring and not over-dramatic. Only that visual storytelling was disturbingly weak, maybe it was a budget thing or skills issue.

Saving Face (2004) - Rated 28 Jul 2026
There was a time when everybody who had some knowledge about filmmaking and wanted to crawl out from closet, made a movie about how difficult or/and rewarding is to be a gay. Its a good cause but nothing new here for moviegoers.

Le Conseguenze dell'amore (2004) - Rated 28 Apr 2026
One of the best movies released on 2004. No complaints to the crew and cast. Missed some colours, it is filmed mostly in darkish indoor environment. And the main character did not draw enough sympathy and maybe that was the point. All the visuals are compensated with brilliant musical score and great script. So enjoyable all together.

Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) - Rated 09 Apr 2026
Well, if you are teenage boy, you might find this enjoyable. Pictured Jedi's are by script clumsy with their lightsabres, dropping them everywhere. Not able to use the Force, what would have been better option than swordfights. The only change they feel in Force, is how their stomach gases are moving around. Silly script for sure. Not great CGI effects and bad camerawork. But brilliant musical score and decent acting. Good rating because i was some time ago also a teenager.

Notre Musique (2004) - Rated 03 Apr 2026
I heard that Godard is very famous director but i have not seen any of his movies so far. "Notre Musique" did not impress at all. It did not present anything new, except boredom. Film is enjoyable when you just listening the music, dont need to watch it.

A Common Thread (2004) - Rated 31 Mar 2026
Great debut movie from Éléonore Faucher. Its so good to see a french movie where are not only dialogs after dialogs. Here something is also happening. Its exceptionally short film, must be too much edited. Watched from dvd and its picture quality was bad even on laptop screen. Also camerawork was not the best. Clicked otherwise very well. Truly recommend to watch!

Mad Hot Ballroom (2005) - Rated 16 Mar 2026
Well, similar subject is handled so much better in recent documentary films. This movie had some sweet spots although generally its pretty much pointless and missing all that enthusiasm what i was expecting.

Kings and Queen (2004) - Rated 14 Mar 2026
French movies are all about dialogs. When one is finished, the next one starts. Over two hours of dialogs.. too much. Although the script was good and actors did well, movie didn't reach its potential, visuals and sounds were poor, specially editing. Movie starts to get interesting towards the end... if you survive first 30-40 minutes.

The Jacket (2005) - Rated 28 Jan 2026
This film is compared to very famous movies but it really can't impress. The cast and musical score are pretty good. The story itself, generally messy atmosphere and clueless directing are weaker points. When you survive the first half of the movie then the latter half is rather enjoyable.
