Mixed feelings really
13 September 2023
Warning: Spoilers
To start with, the duration of the film could have been shorter than it was. The script was good, directing was good, Möller's performance was ok. The kid was remarkable in my opinion so was his dog! Loved how the plot unraveled in the court room. Somehow I expected a plot twist after the end of the trial which never came. I found no reason for the film to keep on going after the verdict.

I would recommend the film to the lovers of French cinema, but would not have too many expectations at the very end.

Extra points for the piano music, the Alpine scenery and the wintery atmosphere which I found remarkable.

The Dive (2023)
1/10
I had higher expectations - horrible acting
26 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I did have high expectations for this film. Lowe's performance is really really bad. Krause's a bit better, but still...The film is extremely slow - the last 20 minutes, I really wanted to stop watching. The goofs are beyond any possible explanation or logic. The young sister throws the car of a cliff....after having so much nitrogen in her blood already, she still has so much physical strength left. Plus they're out of a vehicle now. At the end of the film, we are left with the question mark of how they would ever survive and leave off that spot in the middle of nowhere. Also, after two times of surfacing , the woman survived??? 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Thrilling from the first to the very last minute

Whoa! What a series that was!!! Pinned me to the chair from the first to its last episodes! Where to start: first and foremost, the casting director did an awesome job with every single character chosen. I especially loved Camilla Morone in the series along with Sam Claflin. Next, the storyline, truly amazing and how everything came into place at the end. The songs and musical performances made me dance. The sets, cinematography, directing. Flawless in every single aspect. Great addition to show the grown up Julia interviewing all characters. Kudos to all the team making this truly remarkable series.

Elvis (2022)
8/10
Austin Butler is the reason to watch this film!
18 August 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Honestly, I did not wanna watch this film. I have no idea what Elvis was all about, just knew a couple of his songs. Decided to watch out of curiosity and to see what the fuss was all about. I did not like the narrative of the film in the first 30-40min. What kept me me watching was Austin Butler's outstanding performance.

Unreal! The voice, the looks, the movement!

The scenes at his first performance at the International and Suspicious Minds and the scene where he fires Colonel are simply AMAZING! I hope he's nominated for an Oscar!

I did not like the actress playing Priscilla at all. Tom Hanks is Tom Hanks, what to say here.

The last 45min of the movie are heartbreaking imo. The decadence, the addiction, a faded glory. Watch it for Austin if you ask me. This young gentleman has a very promising career ahead of him!!!

Utterly disappointed

Warning: Spoilers
Really wanted to watch this, mainly due to Zac Efron starring....slow, with an enigmatic ending.

Had a hard time following the poor script.... It surely had potential, but somehow it got lost somewhere in the way.

Disgraceful
19 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I literally watched around 30 minutes of this disgraceful movie. The mom telling her kid that dogs rape other dogs??Seriously??? Who wrote this horrendous script? Any research on dogs? The poor dog was mistreated and almost died due to people's negligence. Shame on the people who produced such a film.

Give the woman another Oscar
11 December 2021
After The Blind Side, Sandra Bullock deserves her second Oscar for this captivating, unique, unbelievable performance in the film.

The film itself was slow in the beginning, but the plot unraveled smoothly and beautifully. Unpredictable and unbelievably touching and raw in every sense of the word! A must-watch and a grant bravo to Netflix for such a masterpiece!

This movie had it all, witty humor, tons of adventure, excellent photography, great acting, Indiana Jones reviving, a bit of romance! Loved every minute of it. Ryan Reynolds is just so natural and so good in such roles! Fun times.

One hell of a movie!

What's wrong with people rating this awesome movie so low? Grasping from the first 5 minutes. Gyllenhall's acting is A M A Z I N G. Just watch it people.

Emotional and really worth watching
26 September 2021
This film touched me deeply and made me love Melissa McCarthy even more as an actress. So very appealing to those who are grieving or have dealt with loss of loved ones. Kevin Kline's acting is also remarkable.

We need more films like this one.

I wish I had the reviews before trying to watch this film
10 September 2021
Slow, no plot, shallow characters, fast forwarded it from a point on. Complete waste of time.

What a story, amazing cast and the acting was AMAZING. I wish the film industry would make many more films like this one: unpredictable, heartwarming, a thrill to watch. Paul Bettany is just one of a kind.
