It is very hard to watch all this destruction without being affected and for most of the time this is what the movie has to show. Fortunately, the ending bestows signs of hope for the future in some very touching image sequences. Review
Magnificently directed with a lyrical style and with many answers to be sought. Review
Trishna despite of showing the recurrent realistic approach, wasn’t so sparkling. Some inert moments end up in a final almost amateur-style. The images from India were what moved me most in this film. Review
Altiplano delivers artsy images within a well-intentioned story but its approach isn't always totally satisfying. Despite of some narrative issues and the evident eagerness to be art-house, it still worth for its exceptional landscapes and mystic creeds. Review
This is a confrontation between French and American cultures that doesn’t take us anywhere. Review
I tried to look for some message here, but there isn’t any. A vulnerable plot stuffed with rubbish talk. Review
The movie successfully shows the difficulty to separate such stressful work situations from private lives. A tense movie, relying on natural acting and unfolding harsh conclusions. Review
The plot isn’t so much of interest and wasn’t so keen as it looked at the beginning. When everything is achieved so easily in a plot, it is normal for me to lose interest in it. In this particular case, we can see its slow fall. Review
There’s more here than just fights and shots, with the story revealing some surprising twists. Exhausting, but also an ebullient action movie. Review
We are before some interesting character studies in a very dark tale. In some moments we can really feel the strength and potentiality of this story. In others, we are convinced that it could have been better explored. Review
The rhythm, mood and even the special effects didn’t grab my attention. Very futuristic, although completely out of balance and predictable. Review
Michael is a compelling portrait of a monster, whose sick mind is hidden within an apparently normal life. The subject of this film is particularly strong by itself, but Schleinzer proved to have hands for direction and counted on flawless acting performances. Review
Left wing vs. right wing; rich vs. poor; success vs. failure and acting vs. reality, were some of the battles fought. Some originality is shown. Review
It’s frustratingly invariable in its suspenseful moments and lingers too much over sex scenes. You will not be disappointed, but you will not be asking for more either. Review
A meek script, without any complex situations that may require further analysis. Review
Heavy documentary based on a mournful story, which sometimes becomes difficult to watch. Review
The story is ok, especially in what concerns to family relationships, but often loses its track in its subplots, becoming a bit messy. Among a luxury cast, there was an admirable performance by Anna Paquin. Review
From start to finish, this story has no surprises, just drags itself. Incapable to bring any emotions to the surface, we conclude that some seasoning was needed here - we just can’t blame DeNiro for that. Review
I didn’t like the script. Boring and without life, it wasn’t capable to take me out of my lethargy. Even its atypical dialogs or the tensions of a forbidden love affair, were not able to deliver good results. Review
This low-budget film is one of them. Being more realistic than the usual stuff and containing a very chilling ambiance, it pleased me with its contemplative and underground approach. Review
The gags and dialogs worked fine. As for the rest, it doesn’t succeed so much. Review
Deliberately optimistic in its ideas, this can be a gentle comedy or a kind of soap opera. Review
I also sensed that the story, in its slow pace, could have had some more spirit in considerable moments. It is not exceptional nor fundamental, but deserves a good look. Review
A dark Polish tale that leaves its mark, unveiling how harmful this kind of virtual refuges can be. Be aware of the depressing atmosphere. Review
