The New Pope (2020)
The curse of the flawless first season.
As it happens with all tv shows that have a perfect first season, they can only go downhill. The new pope is no exception. It seems the writers knew from the start they cannot top The young pope and they just gave up. Poor writing, lack of ideas and purpose.
Inventing Anna (2022)
Ok movie, could have been reduced to 6 episodes
The movie is ok, a little long and slow. A young immigrant girl scammed some rich people, some bankers and some hotels for 200k give or take. For this she got some time in prison, and a 9 episode miniseries.
Had she been a non immigrant guy, everything would have catalogued as a bad week and eventually he would have become the potus.
Our Friend (2019)
Good movie, based on a true story.
Very poor acting from Dakota Johnson, I haven't seen her in anything else, but I found her acting in this particular role very weak. Affleck and Segal are doing a great job. The movie is ok, it is based on a true story.
Little Women (2019)
Great cast, great book, poor directing.
I am from Europe. The book is not as known, as apreciated and as read here as it is across the ocean. We have a few other books here :) Went to the movies with a large group, I was the only one who has read the book. None of the people at the movies could understand the story line. It was a struggle to follow the time line, even for me. The movie was not meant for people who had not read the book.
Other than that, great cast and acting.
English is my second language, sorry for any mistakes.
U Turn (1997)
Good story, poorly directed...
Tiresome directing ruined a good script and a potentially great movie. This happens when directors try to steal the focus from actors and writers.
Terminal (2018)
Disappointment
The movie attempts to recreate a Guy Ritchie universe where you would find interesting twists and very smart dialogues. The problem is that it lacks Guy Ritchie and any kind of smarts...
Red Sparrow (2018)
Boring
Never understood why they substitute russsian or other foreign languages with very bad accent english. They want us to believe that russians speak english when they speak with each other? If not, why not clean english?
Other than that, rather boring movue with boring Lawrence performance, as expected.
