The Monkey King (2023)

Awesome movie

[7/10 · 1 April 2024]

I liked this movie, it is about a rebellious, selfish and lonely monkey who tries everything to become a deity aided by a stick and a little girl, but he will have several enemies to face.

I loved the animations in this film (especially the one in 2d at the beginning of the film), with a perfect choice of colors that fit to better represent the various scenes, and really amazing and functional camera movements.

For the soundtrack we have excellent music accompanying all the sequences in the feature film.

The acting is excellent does its job, believable voices.

This is an excellent film for those who love the legend of the Monkey King.

The Garden of Words (2013)

Koto no ha no niwa

[7/10 · 28 March 2024]

A dramatic love story about two people, those who have to grow up and those who have already reached adulthood, the music, the animations really make this film harmonious and sadly real.

The quality of the animations is really excellent, the way the raindrops gently falling on the water are animated are really well done and relaxes the viewer's eye.

The music then really poignant, affecting the souls of the two main characters, with a sweet but melancholy piano coming in at just the right time.

I loved Makoto Shinkai's direction in this film, an unmissable cult film for lovers of these types of anime!

The Hills Have Eyes (2006)

The Hills Have Eyes

[7/10 · 28 March 2024]

A family through lies gets lost in the thick desert to which mutant human monsters greet them with brutality.

The Hills Have Eyes is a destabilizing horror film, capable of unsettling and disgusting the viewer for the entire last hour of the film, an excellent feature!

I sincerely loved the character who plays Dan Byrd (Bobby), an independent character who shows what he is capable of dealing with when his daughter is in danger, he was my favorite character.

As for the special effects, they are really well done, with great use of fake blood, never overdone!

Truly an excellent horror film, a must-see for fans of the genre.

Caparezza: La Certa (2022 Music Video)

Caparezza: La Certa

[10/10 · 24 March 2024]

A music video that honestly made me reflect on my own life path, I find it really hard to find words for so much wonder regarding this song, but I try anyway!

For the technical music side, you know that caparezza is a guarantee, I loved those spasmodic sounds that draws the attention of those who are listening, for the lyrics it recalls the theme of death, but with a melancholic and at the same time optimistic look, the one who urges you not to stop at adversity, I really appreciated it.

For the video on the other hand, great choice of colors, which emphasizes and accompanies the song very well.
