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…

Grâce à l’authenticité de son cadre et à son scénario brillamment écrit, Capharnaüm est l’un des meilleurs films sur les bidonvilles du Moyen-Orient. Et aussi grâce à ses interprétations, en particulier celle de l’enfant non-acteur principal, le véritable réfugié syrien Zain Alrafeea. Le fait qu’il incarne un…

Une brillante combinaison de thriller de survie « de guerre » et de description sombre d’un conflit politique imprégné de haine et de trahison. Les coins nocturnes de Belfast sous la pluie et une bande de tueurs de l’IRA déterminés sur la piste d’un soldat britannique sans défense. Sean Harris, toujours aussi âpre, et…
