All of my movie reviews…
I wasn’t planning on writing a review for this film. I mean, why would you? Dogtooth is one of the most uncomfortable films you will see. It’s that kind of movie you want everyone to watch because it stays with you, but you are afraid to recommend this to anyone because you feel scared about what they…

Let’s continue with Oscar movies for at least one day. The Father is an astonishing film that has managed to attach “a bit” of “baggage” to it in its short lifespan. But unfortunately, not by its own doing or by everybody talking about Sir Anthony Hopkins and his masterful performance. No, regretfully, many people will remember this film being…
I have an almost love/hate relationship with this film. Because I absolutely loved it until it started to go up against itself with the story presentation. If you have seen the movie, you know we effectively see what I would call a stand-up routine, which is pretty much narration but dressed differently. And that is…

Let’s get one thing straight right from the get-go. The Suicide Squad is better than Suicide Squad (2016). It’s the “the” that makes all the difference, sometimes you need to drop it (looking at you, The Facebook), and sometimes you need to add it to distinguish itself from the pretty bad film. And, of course, the director James Gunn might have something…

Nightmare Alley might be the ultimate example of the power of Guillermo del Toro. I can’t think of a director who could make a movie like this, make it two and a half hours long and for the film to be a visual and storytelling feast, without any “boring” parts. Everything in this film is here because…

Movies like The Lost Daughter are the reason I love films. It might sound weird, especially when I am not fully “in love” with this film, but let me explain. The Lost Daughter is a challenging movie to sit through. There are literally no “good” characters/people. Everyone is flawed, and what’s more interesting than that, they all are aware…

Like many, I still remember when this remake was announced. Mainly because I remember thinking, why, Steven Spielberg? Why do you feel the need to remake West Side Story (1961)? Why “waste” your talent on this? Anyway, I hoped for the best, as always. And then, the first reviews started to come out, saying it’s decent…? Imagine my…

The Mitchells vs the Machines is one of those films I’ve heard plenty about, mainly how amazing it is. So when it got an Oscar nomination, that bumped it on my “to-watch” queue higher. And after finishing this film, I couldn’t be happier about that. Because this movie was everything I didn’t know I needed and…
