Hot Fuzz (2007)
Mmatsuhara_puruJanuary 23, 2025
A whodunnit tribute to buddy cop, the very entertaining Edgar Wright
Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood (2022)
Mmatsuhara_puruJanuary 23, 2025
A personal history without much ambition, Linklater's preferred transcription brings a visual sensation between “reality” and “depiction of reality”, while the film presents a blurred edge between “memory” and “if nonly”.
L.A. Confidential (1997)
Mmatsuhara_puruJanuary 23, 2025
There's a certain (I'll call it) “Americanness” born out of hard-boiled detective noir, a retro take on the post-war period.
Kinds of Kindness (2024)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
A fetishist obtains financing to get good actors to satisfy his desires and carry out his orders.
It's not a synopsis, I'm talking about the director.
Longlegs (2024)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
The FBI discovers a secret kept for 20 years:
For Nicolas Cage to give a good performance, you just had to put a little makeup on his face.
Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood (2019)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
A great movie star regretfully discovers that he no longer films like before
(I won't say if I'm talking about Dalton, Pacino or Tarantino)
Eyes Wide Shut (1999)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
Systematically and every five minutes exactly they either catch him or kill Tom Cruise.
(Me too)
Mary Tyler, Millennial (2023)
AAlejandra SchraderJanuary 23, 2025
Brilliant, witty, and funny
The Banshees of Inisherin (2022)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
One of the two is crazier than a goat. I saw it 10 times and I still can't figure out which one.
Alien: Romulus (2024)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
-Great idea to make a crossover between High School Musical and Alien, what could go wrong?

*The crossover:
Oppenheimer (2023)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
A genius of unmatched talent, using all his ability to do evil.
I'm talking about Nolan.
The Thing (1982)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
If you take away The Thing, it's the story of a group of junkie friends with guns who are paranoid about who stole it.
Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes (2020)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
After I started watching the movie, my two minutes in the future self hated me. And the one two minutes after that, he loved me. And so on to infinity.
The Killing of a Sacred Deer (2017)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
No sacred deer were harmed to film this film.
And let's not say it too loudly, maybe that's the only fetish that Yorgos doesn't have.
The Shining (1980)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
Everyone goes crazy when they are around him.
Oh, also the characters when they enter the hotel.
Seven (1995)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
Be careful with this movie, it contains a big spoiler about a monster.
(And I'm not talking about the plot twist, but to KS)
Lamb (2021)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
The most normal of all, by far, is lamb.
Calvary (2014)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
A powerful example of the magic of cinema: here I am, empathizing with a priest.
Another Round (2020)
FFrancis CoboJanuary 23, 2025
The good thing about it not being a moralizing film is that I still feel like getting drunk.
(It's a good thing these people didn't film a movie about serial killers, because if not...)

A Real Pain (2024)
Mmatsuhara_puruJanuary 22, 2025
A standard sense of American independent cinema ...... splits two personalities from Jesse Eisenberg, implanting them in historical contexts in search of painful resonance.
