A forgatókönyv és a rendezés csupán kiváló módon összegzi egy törékeny lány igaz történetét, aki egy manipulatív őrült hálójába esett, aki őt lelki mélypontra juttatta. Ami erős filmmé teszi, az a fiatal Mireia Oriol kiváló alakítása. A karaktere lelkiállapotának ilyen szívből jövő útjáért az örömtől és bizalomtól az…

François Ozon és varázslatos filmes elbeszélése, kivételesen finom tragikomikummal. Atipikus karakterek nagyszerű szereposztása egy különös történetben. A múltjuk fokozatos feltárása, amely megmagyarázza a kapcsolataikat, miközben a sorsuk tele van abszurd, Hitchcock-szerű fordulatokkal. Játék a közönséggel az…

Everything is pretty much the same, Alexandre Aja continues to waste his talent on contrived scripts. The absurd premise predictably evolves towards a single meaningful non-absurd denouement. This then arrives, relatively timely, so that for a while the film seems to build to a rather chilling ending on top of it. But…

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…

One of those great Hollywood films made before Pearl Harbor. The important aspect is the play by Lillian Hellman from 1939, which she herself adapted into a film script. The Oscar nominations and, above all, Bette Davis's performance are significant. The grand Southern drama deals with the transformation of a once…

Martin Scorsese is an expert when it comes to these mafia films. He has proven it many times before, and The Departed has everything a detective story should have. I have to commend Scorsese because he squeezed the absolute maximum out of all the actors, and in the end, it was clearly visible. Jack Nicholson played…

I’m a fan of quality comedies, but this film really doesn’t belong in the category of good comedies. At first, I thought the cast was very interesting and that it would surely deliver funny scenes and a decent story. While there are funny moments in the film, they are far outnumbered by the cringeworthy ones, of which…

Even though I watched The Departed a few days ago, I was still in the mood for a solid gangster film, and American Gangster with its old-school vibe seemed like the perfect fit. Ridley Scott stamped the film with his signature style, which is evident from the very first minutes. The script was handled by a capable…

Wes Anderson and his unique style of comedy fascinate me. Fantastic Mr. Fox was indeed fantastic, and the same goes for The Grand Budapest Hotel. The film undoubtedly benefits from a great cast, which significantly contributes to its overall quality. Ralph Fiennes played a somewhat eccentric character, but he…

I haven’t seen such a gritty film in a long time. I’d heard for a while that it’s quite a bloodbath, and the reviews were positive, so I decided to watch it. If you don’t like depressing films, you might want to skip this one. The first third of the film is bearable, but then hell breaks loose for the unfortunate…
