Capra cu trei iezi (2022)
Spectacular
The stories of Ion Creanga are an obligatory read for every Romanian kid. We grew up with his tales, one of the most famous being Capra cu trei iezi. Only later, as adults we truly understand this is hardly a children's story and more a horror/thriller one. Victor Canache and his team did an amazing job on this story, honoring Romanian folklore yet bringing a breath of fresh air on a tale as old as time. The music creates and eery setting and contributes to the thrill. Maia Morgenstein is incredible as always and Marius Bodochi's rendition of the wolf is guaranteed to scare the **** out of anyone. Congrats and we are looking forward to more from the director.
Miami Bici (2020)
If you want to have your intelligence insulted, go ahead and watch this movie
People who are saying that this is the best Romanian comedy have clearly not watched any Romanian movies in their lives. This is a disgrace, an insult to the audience's intelligence and a waste of time. Matei Dima is a very funny content creator but as an actor he is rather disappointing. Codin Maticiuc simply can't act and should not make any more movies - please spare us. The scenario is so bad! I wanted to be entertained but I simply could not. The jokes are not funny, they're just recycled and sad. Everything about this movie is a failure. I took one for the team and watched it, so you guys can pass.
Hereditary (2018)
Disappointed
I really enjoyed the overall feeling and tension that the movie creates. I am more into this type of fear than the obvious jump scares so this is a plus. However, as the ending unraveled, I felt disappointed that it was ancient demons instead of mental illness. While this is a horror film and supernatural occurences were expected, I would have appreciated more a 'scientific' explanation of the events. It was a good film, but in my view it would have been more terrifying if Ellen and Annie and Peter would have suffered from schizophrenia rather than being possessed by evil spirits. Disturbing and enjoyable nonetheless.
The Haunting of Hill House (2018)
A well-deserved perfect 10
Very few horror shows/films manage to gather all in one the creepy atmosphere, the scares, great characters, intriguing storyline, captivating side stories and most importantly, to make perfect sense! Hands down for the directing, editing and for the performances! I did not believe that a horror flick could be frightening and extremely sad at the same time. I passed through a rollercoaster of emotions while watching this. Can't wait for season 2!
This Is the End (2013)
Not what I expected...
This movie was not at all what I have been expecting; it surprised me, but in a very good way! First of all, the acting is amazing. In my opinion, half of the film is pure improvisation. The actors do a wonderful job, dragging us into their perfect universe until it breaks down.
The story is not original, however the manner of telling it is new, fresh, entertaining, unique, and extremely funny.
Moreover, I believe that besides the comedic facade of the movie, there's a pretty important message there. Throughout the film there's a constant friction going on between atheists and believers and in the ends, as it turns out, the second group was right all along..there is a God, and a heaven, and the saints.
'This is the End' makes you laugh like crazy but at the end, it makes you wonder and it gives you hope. I think that behind the amusement, the jokes, the cursing and the fighting there's a very important message: Guys, be nice, you will really go to Heaven. Heaven which in this movie is portrayed as a gigantic all-white party, with girls wearing bikinis and everyone smoking pot.
I believe also it's a movie about faith too. Faith that if you do good, the universe will reward you. If you are nice, you have a chance at redemption.
I enjoyed it very much but it also made me think about the 'afterlife'. If people knew for sure that Heaven exists and it's a full-blown party, where all your wishes come true, would they be good Christians every day? Would they sacrifice this life in order to get a VIP invitation the biggest, coolest party, the one that goes on forever? We can never know, but what's for sure, this movie rocks! I highly recommend it!
