Hellraiser review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 8 January 2023 02:00 (A review of Hellraiser)

(MU) Bloody mixture of gore with not too exploited sadomasoquistic undertones, good rythm, better imagery, noirish characters....

Short Sharp Shock review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 8 January 2023 01:58 (A review of Short Sharp Shock)

(MU) Fatih Akin's debut is this goodfellas of multicultural Hamburg. The hero's dream (he's 'innocent' by oposition to his crooked friends) is his return to Turkey....that's not noir not too realistic, but the film has his interesting undertones and deviations...

The African Desperate (2022) review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 3 January 2023 03:46 (A review of The African Desperate (2022))

(MU) The observation of high sofisticated drugged prejudiced anguished and relaxed when partying, bichu art students, is better than the action...

In Front of Your Face review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 3 January 2023 03:44 (A review of In Front of Your Face)

(OK) One more 'morceaux de bravure', by Sang Soo, just one long scene (the retired actress confessing the director she is dying and can't make a film, getting drunk and going knowhere is worth the little film)...

Stereo review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 3 January 2023 03:40 (A review of Stereo)

(MU) 3 stars because there's a director planting his temes and obsessions, shining in some scenes (a man caressing a mannequin wth organs), using voice in off to describe -in a sort of mockumentary- processes of sex and behaviour...

The Captive review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 3 January 2023 03:37 (A review of The Captive)

(MU) Effective thriller, mixed narrative times but don't affect tension too much; the additional tension between cops and family with common objective, is credible...

Queen of Hearts review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 1 January 2023 12:03 (A review of Queen of Hearts)

(MU) I like how it goes from contemporary drama to melodrama, with excellent actress Trine Dyrholm, how she with evil naturality seduces the boy...

Love & Friendship review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 31 December 2022 11:26 (A review of Love & Friendship)

(MU) Wit and humour and speed and nice acting; Stillman is an underrated director. This is halfway "Liaison dangereuses" with Austen...

Moonage Daydream review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 31 December 2022 11:15 (A review of Moonage Daydream)

Too long and chaotic and arbitrary, and too little information. Its unforgivable to use clips firm all Bowie films just as vague illustration of ideas or mere transition...

The Innocents review

Posted : 2 years, 1 month ago on 31 December 2022 11:13 (A review of The Innocents)

(OK) Telekinesis and too fantastic powers, distorted progression for a long film; but somehow sometimes there's a sor of children "Village of the damned" feeling, til thereยดs a fight between good and evil childrenn
