The story of Italian rap in the '90s. more
Good with Articolo 31, the story of Italian rap, declined afterwards. more
I'll summarize it in a few words:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
WAAAAAAAAAAATAAAAAHHHH

Mr. Pink: Why would I be Mr. Pink?
Joe: Because you're a faggot, alright? more
Mr. White: How did you manage to escape?
Mr. Pink: By a lot of bullets. They were all shooting, damn it, I shot too! more
One of the best directors of our time, in three science fiction films, has shown to have great talent, and Peter Jackson had sensed it. Up Spielberg's ass and E.T. more
She’s convinced that being able to quickly say a few phrases means being a hip hop artist, not to mention that she looks like a bad copy of Lady Gaga but coming out of a hole in the ass. And come on, it's not like she's some incredible babe, why is she acting so full of herself? more
The third image says it all. more
The effect it has is like its punishments. more
A story about compulsions and the obsession with sex, which also addresses other themes and manages to hit the right notes. McQueen directs with that European classicism he had already displayed in "Hunger," and his narrative is poignant, painful, and remarkably real. (8) more
Repetitive direction (circular shots that lack substance), a screenplay full of holes, and an utterly over-the-top pace for a comic book action flick that is nothing but a remake of "Heat," a monumental masterpiece by Mann. I don't love Batman, I don't love superhero movies, but I still can't understand how this film can be idolized... (5) more
River film about human inability to be rational when it comes to one's loved ones and visceral feelings. A thriller with great visual and emotional impact, but it loses parts of a not-so-convincing script along the way. Important cast, memorable ending. (7.5) more
Personal drama cloaked in thriller, for a product with great "packaging" but predictable content. The final twist is unfortunately telegraphed and while Kent deserves recognition for her ability to create tension without breaking it, it is equally true that there is a sense of a director who never manages to go beyond a concept of cinema that has already been seen. (6) more
A burst of sounds and colors for a reinterpretation of Holmes' story masterfully directed by the only true "spiritual" heir of New Hollywood. Scorsesean in rhythm and editing, "Coppola-esque" in its staging, it’s a film that, although it drags on a bit, would have fit perfectly in the seventies. (8) more
Lou Reed dies: some despair while others, simply, do not. Lemmy dies: some despair while others, simply, do not. David Bowie dies: some despair while others feel compelled to say "I don't give a damn about Bowie." Maybe it means nothing, but I like to believe it does. more
A denunciatory act on English poverty during the "Thatcher period." A technically rough film (more or less a constant in Loach's work) but heartfelt, solid, and once again unafraid to take a political stance and to sing the misery and human dignity of the downtrodden. (7.5) more
Perfect from a purely technical standpoint, with photography and sound deserving of a real applause, in addition to Cuarón's decidedly functional direction. An experimental film more than it appears, it falters in a second half that is implausible and succumbs to a sometimes shallow sentimentalism lacking in pathos. (7) more
A conventional noir/thriller, but well-constructed, without overdoing it and maintaining a good level of tension throughout. A small production that deserves to be rediscovered. Well done, Alice Eve and Bryan Cranston. (6.5) more
Artist in the truest and most complete sense of the word. The Duke is dead, long live the Duke! more
