Van Morrison — Common One | DeRank™: 3,00

Music quality levels too high to be measurable... "Haunts Of Ancient Peace" begins immediately with a heartfelt blow... then we add the ecstasy of the 15-minute "Summertime In England," and we have yet another excellent work by Van Morrison... what a genius... more

Nima Nourizadeh -American Ultra
sotomayor
Film by Nima Nourizadeh that fits into the action comedy genre, written by John Landis's son, Max. The protagonist is Jesse Eisenberg, presented as a slacker who turns out to be a sort of 'killing machine' crafted by a secret CIA plan, unbeknownst to him. At times, it's a rather likable film (the cast also includes the always excellent John Leguizamo alongside Bill Pullman), but frankly, I found it too confusing and poorly directed. Nonetheless, it will appeal to all fans of the comic book genre, from which it borrows some elements and atmospheres. more

Swans — The Glowing Man | DeRank™: 0,00

'The Glowing Man' practically closes a real era in the history of the Swans. Right after the album's release, Michael Gira announced that this would be the last record recorded with the current lineup (which he put together in 2009) and that after the tour, the band would disband to start over from scratch. The album aligns with the band's latest productions and is another work that I would define somehow sumptuous, elephantine, and in a way, immeasurable. It’s a double album, and I believe that the best highlights are all in the first part. Although it’s clearly reasonable to question whether this feeling stems from my personal exhaustion in front of these long sessions of dronic and destructive noise music. I probably don’t love the Swans, but I am obviously very happy that they exist and that they will continue to exist. more
Nicholas Stoller -Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising
sotomayor
Seth Rogen is really likable to me, and his presence pushes me to watch movies that I know from the start are completely pointless, like this one. Which is basically the sequel to 'Bad Neighbors' and has practically the same plot, with the difference being that here, instead of a 'fraternity,' the Radner couple will deal with a 'sisterhood.' Once again, the cast includes Rose Byrne and Zac Efron, along with another star of Hollywood, the charming Chloe Grace Moretz. I don’t know, I’m not suggesting you watch it; I must admit there are definitely better ways to turn off your brain. more
Salman Rushdie -Midnight's Children
sotomayor
Salman Rushdie's 'Midnight's Children' are all the children born on August 15, 1947, at the stroke of midnight, practically at the same moment when India declared its independence. These children all possess extraordinary gifts and magical, supernatural powers. The same goes for Saleem Sinai, the protagonist of the story and also the narrator. A tale that travels through the historical events of his country in a hallucinatory and visionary manner, where the protagonist's experiences intertwine with those of India itself until they coincide into one. A work rich in content and insights, with some ups and downs in the rhythm of the narrative, but how could it be otherwise when telling the story of that part of the world from the late nineteenth century to the 1970s? more
