Spoilers/History – The unexpected gift in the form of a director's cut raises the biggest question: are three and a half hours enough for a comprehensive look? Not even close. At least not for something with the gigantic scope that David Scarpa's screenplay was seeking. Ridley Scott thus faces the traditional drawback…

In the context of electing a new pope, Conclave raises a number of burning issues, including those that involve the situation at the highest levels of the Catholic Church, such as power manipulation, conservatism vs. progressivism in the perception of multiculturalism, and gender inequality, as well as migration and…

The underworld of Nice, France, skirmishes between Eastern European mafias and a family drama that cannot turn out well. A solid directorial debut. It takes a while to get used to the coarse main characters, who do not have any likable qualities. Not even the estranged brothers’ search for a way back to each other is…

It’s fun to study the character played by Isabelle Huppert, as the actress imbues her with specific outlines of European frankness and French sensibility, which nicely contrasts with the Japanese aloofness and communication code of ethics. Despite its likable authenticity, the film is not entertaining in some of its…

A thriller with a poorly thought-out screenplay, wobbly dramaturgy without a feel for the seriousness of the subject and flawed definition of the main male character. Clumsily thrown together with genre ingredients like something from a filmmaker who has either never seen a genre film on a similar topic or didn’t…

I'm not sure how anyone can compare this to John Wick. The action is fairly decent, but everything around it is pretty crappy. B-move actors, the creators aren't the sharpest tools in the shed, the visuals are mediocre, the story is terribly stupid, but what bothered me the most is how shallow and uninteresting the…

After an excellent start in the first half, where we are introduced to each candidate and the subsequent selection method, I was excited. The story smacked of originality, the tasks were interesting and the psychological terror was ramping up nicely. But the problem comes with the second half, where the writers seem…

An above-average children's horror film about a tooth fairy who gives kids in an orphanage money in exchange for their teeth. Cleverly combined horror elements along with (by the standards of shorts) quality filmmaking, a decent looking monster, an offbeat idea and a fine child actor in the lead role.

Visually breathtaking and informatively excellent again and again, just like the first part by Richard Attenborough. But seems to me that all these documentaries are about the same thing over and over again and there's nothing left to say. On the other hand, although I'm no fan of climate change activists, I have to…

A rather difficult film to rate, it can be seen from two diametrically opposed perspectives. From one, we see the excellent and meticulous John Krasinski behind the camera, he is flawless from a technical or visual point of view, the monsters are amazing, the sound design is the most intense in years, it serves us…
