The Tenant (1976) - 8/10


crazy movie indeed. guess polanski creativity at the highest of his career for that time, a year before his life turn upside down (again).
there little thing baffled me when this trelkovsky-the-so-paranoid character feel like instantly flip, suddenly went mental , but -one can assure- give the story longer with more elaborate detail for the insanity build up, its can take away the feel of strong bizarre ness. it will become another kind of movie if the whole thing on this one is making sense lol

overall description in one still image.

one of the best trollscene i ever seen

 

The Incredible Mr. Limpet (1964) 9/10


Excellent comedy with real images and animation.

 

Green book. I liked it far more than I had expected, I even got moved in the end. I wish them a lot of luck at the Oscars. 9/10

 

Alice in wonderland by Tim Burton.
3/10
It is a pre ordered movie, Burton probably did not have many say on it and it shows.

A let down and boring atempt at revivivg Lewis Carol's book.
It looks like Burton but it doesn't have the taste.
From the start till the end I waited that moment where Burton would switch it to the horrifying stuff he likes so much, but nothing happens, à part maybe that scène where Alice walks on some dead heads but even this isn't scary at all.
The characters have no relief. The supposed crazy ones aren't that mad. And the bad dudes are more laughable than anything else.
The Queen of heart is a sad clown, just to point how badly characterised she is, in the Disney anime she is more cruel and scarier.

Big disapointmenr.

 

Holmes & Watson. At first I thought it was awful but it got a bit better later. However, I can't say it's a great film. 5/10

 

Captain Marvel. New heroes, new worlds, new plots...and some things that finally fit into place. I liked it. 8.5/10

 

The kid who would be king. Yes, in a way it reminded me of The Goonies ... but this wasn't a Spielberg film. I enjoyed it, but there some holes in the plot and the final part could have been far more believable. 7/10

 

Endgame 4.95/5

Excellent but Bohemian Rhapsody remains the only 5/5 film for me

 

It seems that Rami Malek will be the bad guy in the next James Bond film. I hope he's got more charisma than the last villains of the saga...

 

Rami Malek is specialized to potray a Middle Easterner or a man of Middle Eastern ancestry as his parents are Egyptians. Seems new James Bond film is set somewhere in Middle East, maybe Iraq.

 

Endgame. It's breathtaking. However, the 'device that allows you to do anything, but only if the plot wants it' thing always annoys me, so I won't give it a 10/10, but a 9.5/10

 

The Lion king remake.

For reference, I am old enough to have watched the anime in theater 25 years ago, so comparing is more or less inevitable.

I was curious at first to see how this "realistic" rendering would lead and it's not disapointing, very impressive indeed.
The movie starts very well, and wow !! the feelings I had back then came back quickly. Disney's magic doesn't fail, especially when the songs are there.
But
A little after, things weren't going as well.
The technical design is one things but it also showed it's limits with the characters lack of expressions and emotions making it tougher to be involved in them, thing that the anilme did flawlessly IMO.
Muphasa and Scar were different enough in there stature to immediatly recognise them (strong and fit lion Vs skinny and apathetic lion) It was another story with young Simba and Nala who are way too similar.
More or less the same criticism with all the hyenas who are not enough different from one to another, so the rendering doesn't emphasys enough their personalities.
The director was also shyer with the violence, Scar's song didn't leave an as strong impact as back then.

Fortunatly the movie kept it's essence and despite these flaws it's really enjoyable.
So a little disapointment.
17/20

 

Cats
There is only one real cats: the stage play.
By any mean don't make the mistake i did and avoid this movie at any cost.

Nothing can save this movie from being a disaster.
The songs, the original stage play are not suited for the adaptation that has been done.
The acting is very bad overall. The CGI are horribles, the cameras never focus on the choregraphies, there's no scenario. It's boring.
And last outrage the actress who portrays Grizabella can not sing "Memory" properly.

1/20 (because the singing is on key and that's the only quality)

 

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. I'm sorry... It's true that the film has got good things, but the script is SOOOOOO awful, terrible and full of nonsense that I must rate it with 0/10

 

Marriage Story
Wow, this film really turned me all different sides. I watched it on Valentines day with my boyfriend and well it was an interesting choice. I go into films without knowing anything so it surely knocked me in ways I didnt expect. The acting was amazing and it gave sides to a divorce you really don't normally see, like a good father who wants custody. It made me a bit emotional but i'd rate it 8.5/10

 

FLU (Korean Film)

This film is pretty bleak given the actual pandemic we are having. It was made back when H1N1 was scary. I do like the message the film gave. The acting is enough. The main actor guy is hot. The beginning is pretty boring...Not saying a movie about an outbreak should be always like Resident Evil Raccoon City but I guess I came with expectations. Things picked up later. If you have a good sense of humor this movie will be enjoyable. If you one of those panic buyer people then this film will only make you more anxious. The film is fictional, not based on a true story, they said it like 3 times.

Anyway go watch it, since everyone is staying home and it's free on Amazon Prime lol. Its worth a watch.
