A masterpiece as well, an epic film, engaging, technically perfect as always in Leone's movies, the characters are exceptional (golden palm for a wonderful Eli Wallach), the music is immense, perfect direction, only the screenplay has a few minor flaws but that's a small matter. The scene where Wallach runs among the tombs and the final triello are legendary. Great Sergione, great film. more
Second major gem from Jonathan Demme, a remarkable director who gave us two of the best films of the '90s. Philadelphia showcases the best performance of Tom Hanks (even better than in Forrest Gump) and a strong showing from Washington. A very delicate theme well addressed, with a hint of feel-goodism perhaps (which isn’t bothersome) but with so much class and intelligence. Heartbreaking ending to the notes of "Philadelphia" by Young.

After "Mean Streets," "Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore," "TAXI DRIVER," "Raging Bull," "King of Comedy," "After Hours," "The Last Temptation of Christ," "The Age of Innocence," and "Goodfellas," here is the latest great Scorsese film, this immense "Casino." He will continue to make good films, but for me, this extraordinary movie remains his last great masterpiece. more
2 just for that homeless guy with the voice of a drunk werewolf who appears at the beginning of the movie and for the nice song he sings; otherwise it would have been a 1. Apparently, he is a friend of the director. more
Great movie, it has its flaws and it's not Weir's best film (Gallipoli, Truman Show, Picnic), but it has a truly beautiful ending (a bit predictable but splendid) and moving, and Williams proves to be a very versatile actor also suited for dramatic roles. Excellent. more
Jack Nicholson is worth the film all by himself and raises the score by at least a notch. Ultimately, it's a good adaptation of the character of Kane; Burton was the one from his early days, pre-Edward, but the talent was already all there. more
Among the top 5, or perhaps even the top 3 films of all time. A masterpiece of masterpieces by Orson Welles, one of the most important films in the history of cinema. I'm speechless. more
"E dura è l'autostrada scura
E la distanza della vetta mi spezza il cuore
Perché non la vedrò mai, eppure svolgo il mio ruolo
Credendo che ciò che ci aspetta
È il cosmo rispetto alla polvere del passato
nella morte dei meri umani la vita avrà inizio"
Fede infantile nella fine dell'infanzia. more
"How long the time seems, how dark the shadow
how straight the eagle flies, how straight towards his arrow
how long the night is, why is this passage so narrow

An exceptional debut work by Tarantino, Pulp at its highest splendor. His best film with Pulp Fiction, featuring a fantastic cast in peak form (devastating Keitel and Madsen, excellent Roth, Penn, and Buscemi, and a great acting performance by Tarantino himself), astonishing direction, brilliant editing, absurd and genius dialogues, and an excellent screenplay. In short, one of the two (and a half counting Una vita al Massimo by T.Scott) great films by Tarantino. more
Meurglys III, he's my friend, the only one that I can trust, to let it be without pretense, there's no one else. It's killing me, but in the end there's no one else I know is true, there's none in all the masks of man there's nothing else. But my guitar... I suppose he'll have to do. more
