The press had focused on the brutal gimmick of the “cannibal scene”, and it was not so bold as to risk the world in order to cater for commercial and rating systems. But it ends with a reverence for the sacrifice of the brave, elevating the crew’s disaster to the vicissitudes of the times and […]

The Martian Review: Planting potatoes to conquer the stars
As a rule, films that are called “hard science fiction” by the general public are prone to controversy, with the “academics” on one side, who are always on the lookout for the film, and the “admirers” on the other side, who are only interested in whether the film looks good or not. “The former is […]
Review of The Big Short: A very poignant flirtation with the subprime mortgage crisis
Let’s start 2016 by talking about the economic crisis! Hahahaha, I thought this was a really bad and boring start to the year myself, but luckily the film ‘The Big Short’ brings us a completely different feeling. A film like this, derived from the famous American financial journalist: Michael Lewis’ book of the same name, […]

Review of Cinderella: Crystal shoes are the finishing touch
The story is not as long-winded as several previous versions, and although the details are not left out from beginning to end, the pacing is relatively well controlled and does not feel cumbersome or superfluous. The padding in the front is also very meticulous, not just giving the stepmother’s family a stamp of approval right […]
Review of Under The Skin: The deadly allure of full body nudity
Scarlett Johansson’s appearance in the film is still etched in many people’s minds. Her curvaceous curves, tousled curls, deep blue eyes, flaming red lips, and hazel eyes. At first glance, she has the look of Monroe. Without exception, the woman known worldwide for her beauty once again takes the word sexy to the extreme, playing […]
‘Boyhood’ review: a film I’d rather wait 12 years for
In Boyhood, we watch a family go through twelve years. A single mother (Patricia Arquette) raises two children, her sister Samantha (Lorelei Linklater) and her six-year-old brother Mason (Ella Coltrane). The film focuses on Mason and shows him growing up. You know, there are so many coming-of-age films that follow a similar formula – kid […]
The Gambler review: the sense of being it interprets and the art of Nietzsche
The Gambler is a play in which the two systems of Nietzsche’s art, heliotropism and alcoholism, are supposed to be present. We are always born to fantasize about the future, we are always born to dwell on the past, we are always born to have fun or to spend our days in depression, knowing that […]
Jersey Boys review: What did those boys teach me about dreams and love?
Writer Kotaro Isaka once said, “Music, sometimes it saves.” A musical, Jersey Boys, not only because I love their music, but because of the solace and empathy I have found in their story. I remember going to see a rock band LIVE and the lead singer said, “Thanks to rock and roll, if it wasn’t […]
