Cinema Paradiso may not be one of the best films I have seen this year, but it perfectly captures that magical feeling that cinema brings to people, and for that I truly appreciate it.
It was a spiritual journey, one that I cannot forget for all its brilliance.
It was frustrating. How one can kick off a film so well, while also slowly deteriorating so far away from what pulled me in.
One of my favorite aspects of watching movies is when you know something is special even without context. This happened to me with Ugetsu.
All that matters was how much I enjoyed the movie, and that is the only reason for its placement.
At the core of any film lies two basic and fundamental elements, sound and picture.
Ad Astra is the film this year that is most dependent on the person viewing it. It can either be a dragged, uptight, and disjointed attempt at a Sci-Fi film, or it can be a unique, personal, and psychologically poignant piece of drama. I fall into the latter, and here is why.
Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is a true love letter to film fans around the world.
This movie wasn’t for me. I didn’t get it, and I am fine with admitting that.
Parasite on the other hand must be seen by all. It is truly impeccable.
Jia told an interesting yet simple story through actions more than words. How characters act is a greater indication of love than all the words in the world.
Scores to me are an interesting tool a reviewer can use. They can be detrimental in some aspects, yet they also have some benefits.
I went into this film with an open mind and no expectations, and I left with a feeling of melancholy and many thoughts about my life.
I go into any of these films I am always so scared. There is such a fine line between incredibly cringey and amazingly witty when it comes to teen coming of age films. Booksmart falls in the latter half.
It was not a unique experience that I was hoping for, but this film probably isn't for me anyway.
Yes it is sometimes cheesy and over the top, but for some reason it just works.
