Tenet (2020)
Pure Nolan
Christopher Nolan is no doubted the most original moviemaker of our time. Tenet is yet again another mindblowing movie from him. Only one thing is bothering me.
I. Just. Didn't. Get. It.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Grandad is having a bad day
First they threw him in a bottomless airlock for no reason at all and now when he is back in business with the airwheelchair he gets a mouthful from his granddaughter.
Where does all this hate come from?
Euphoria (2019)
Beautiful to watch
It is more like a long slow motioned music video than a real drama. But I liked it. Waiting for the S2.
A Black Lady Sketch Show (2019)
Not funny
Not even a single smile on this happy face. Chappelle is the best.
Six Feet Under (2001)
Everybody should watch this before...
This is the best description of life. You'll have to put things in perspective. Yeah it is a cliche, but life is.
The Haunting of Hill House (2018)
Horrifying drama
The horror works so good because the drama and the storytelling is so good. It is the same effect that was In Twin Peaks. In TP It wasn't just the scary things it was the ultra soap opera that was highlighted by the horror. Same effect goes here and it is absolutely brilliant.
Green Book (2018)
I don't know if this is a great movie or excellent movie
Let me try to explain.
This is a difficult subject to handle. One of the most difficult ones in our time. But In my opinion the film was too one dimensional while handling the other main character and rather too cheeky at couple of times.
For example, from the beginning Tony Lip was portrayed as a person with prejudices. But as soon as he started to work with Doc Shirley he was nothing but a good person with good deeds. Change was too rapid and unrealistic. In my opinion they should have let Tony Lip be more edgy with the prejudices he had at least a little longer.
The christmas scene in the end was so sweet and predictable that they shoud have let it out, even if it did happen in the real life. It was so cheeky that it made me puke pink marshmallows.
But, like I said In the beginning I have mixed feelings with all of this. I realize that with this time and age we need cheekiness and pink marshmallows. This movie has a great story, actors are superb and it made me laugh many times.
Still, I am not sure which is the best way to deliver Doc Shirley's message.
Time will tell.
Free Solo (2018)
Absolute horror
By far one of the best horror films I have ever seen.
