El hombre bueno would be nice to watch as an episode of a TV series on a weekend afternoon. For a married couple in crisis. Compared to the experience of seeing it in a cinema, they would lose only the larger format of the shots of the beach house by the turquoise sea and the surrounding rocky panorama, which is…

Leaning slightly toward noir, with Herrmann-esque music and credits resembling those seen in a western, Nina is a stylized drama about the terrible need for revenge for the harm suffered by the protagonist in her youth. We spend the whole film following a traumatized adult woman as she secretly pursues the culprit and…

Saying goodbye to a mother dying of a terminal disease. Yet again. Without any interesting characters around her, with no thought put into the structure of the narrative or filmmaking form. The film’s Danish origin and presence at a major festival betrayed legitimate expectations. An uninteresting, boring, immediately…

“Zetsubou-sensei” Osamu Dazai was truly chosen to revive the dying isekai genre! And of course, Hiroshi Kamiya voices the main character—no one else could have done it so brilliantly. The result is one of the most entertaining series of the season, and we finally get the canonization of Truck-kun and its place in…

The western formula cannot be overlooked. A mysterious stranger in a town where the law is interpreted by its protectors, an inevitable confrontation, a helpful friend, the expulsion of the intruder beyond the town's borders, a buildup of injustice, and a final reckoning. The only difference is that the stranger…

The newcomer in the director's chair, Tim Miller, delivered 108 minutes of incredible action that hardly ever slows down. I haven't read the "Deadpool" comics, but I quite enjoyed the film. It's true that some of the one-liners felt a bit cringe-worthy at times, but I understand that the creators were trying to…

I really enjoy French detective films. This time, the creators from the land of the Gallic rooster prepared a detective story based on a real person. I liked how the story gradually flowed from the turn of the 50s and 60s to the period around the 70s. You can really see the high budget in the film and especially in…
