Joyful moments aren’t abundant in a depressing film that carries ‘I can cope with my life’ as purpose. Review
I cannot say this is a bad movie; its story is just not thorough enough to be remembered in its genre. Still, this robotic-crime-comedy should please those who have a taste for low-key crime films with a hint of futurism. Review
The idea behind Warm Bodies has to be seen purely as amusing or comical, otherwise it would look ridicule. Although this film had the potential to be better, Jonathan Levine maintains his work interesting after the successful 50/50. Review
Jessica Chastain presented charisma while the little girl Lilly, played by the young Isabelle Nélisse, was the scariest in her look and behavior. A rather uneven paranormal tale. Review
Rhino Season is tragic and evinces a deep sadness and pain... a tough reality for all the oppressed Iranian artists. Review
Alternating among humor, seriousness and some humiliation, Modest Reception simply shows us how unpredictably people behave when confronted with money. A radical experience with an unclear conclusion. Review
The Wise Kids chose a graceful approach to connect sexuality and faith issues in a sincere and intelligent way. Review
Stand Up Guys will not leave its mark but is perfectly appropriate for a relaxed watching, not requiring attention to details or complex analysis about its simple story. Review
Among joys, sorrows and some nostalgia, the film provided us with so much information that sometimes was difficult to absorb it completely. Yet, it never became boring in its quirky way and hasty rhythm. Review
Promised Land is torpid in its development and despite its good intentions, turned out completely unemotional. Van Sant needed some kind of trick to win us over, just as the gas company did in the film. Review
We can’t say this is a thrilling docudrama, but spreads charm with some tasteful details. Perhaps it would have benefited if shot on black-and-white. Review
Some good gags and body fights were not enough to make this film a gratifying choice. Review
If at least Yaron Zilberman had avoided this aspect, the film would become even more inviting. Fortunately, this predisposition for sadness didn’t remove the warmness and human side shown on every relationship and performance. Review
It tried to convey a natural and unpretentious posture but it wasn’t always successful in its intents. The plot goes round and round in circles, trying to wrap every scene in smoothness while continues to extend the inevitable conclusions. Just for enthusiasts of sweet romantic dramas. Review
After 20 minutes, the story degenerated into dull situations and predictable moves, never to recover again. Goronja, the bull, ended up being the most interesting protagonist in a colorless story that failed to engage. Review
Even if you like the ingredients, you can’t taste them properly. Wrong is messy and repetitive in its approach. Rather intriguing but hardly satisfactory. Review
The Paperboy was too ambitious and contrived, never reaching a sufficient level of stability. Review
The problem is that the movie embraces a satisfied conduct that makes us anticipate its overjoyed finale. Even the surprises did not work as surprises. Therefore, this is a movie to enjoy and relax, having Auteuil's performance as highlight. Review
5 Broken Cameras is a very personal work, covering the daily struggle of the villagers against illicit settlements, frequent abuse of power and sudden changes in law to address Israeli interests. Review
Southwest is pure art-house, which challenges, provokes and disorients until you become prisoner of your senses. Likely to be seen as a reliving of the past or mere hallucinations, my guess is: it will haunt you, no matter what… Review
I don’t find enough words to describe the phenomenal performances by Joaquin Phoenix, with his unforgettable laugh, and Philip Seymour Hoffman, in another masterpiece from ‘Master’ Anderson. Review
In its slow pace, Volcano has its moments and is worth watching. Review
Shadow Dancer is not mandatory, but deserves some attention as a solid, competent and adult movie. Review
This is a movie of troubles and a trouble of a movie. Both definitions fit well here. Easily forgettable, Not Fade Away would need something less recycled to stimulate the viewer. Review
