Lenny Abrahamson: Room
24 apr 16
Perhaps it's his most ambitious film and one that will earn him/given him significant recognition, but I, who have seen and greatly appreciated all of Abrahamson's films, found this one to have less strength compared to the others. There are still connections to his typical themes. Instead of a person hiding behind a mask like in 'Frank', here we have a young woman and her son who are held captive by a man in a room for seven years, resulting in the necessity for them to eventually confront life as it is, without any filters or alterations. Clearly inspired by the Fritzl case and that of Natascha Kampusch, I am positively impressed by actress Brie Larson, who here is indeed experiencing her definitive consecration.

Leslye Headland: Sleeping WIth Other People
14 may 16
A romantic comedy by director Leslye Headland (famous for the 2012 film 'Bachelorette') starring Jason Sudeikis and Alison Brie. Two young people have their first time almost casually during their college years. They will meet again years later at a point in their lives where both are in crisis and unable to form any kind of relationship. They start spending time together, fall in love, and are uncertain about whether to turn their friendship into a true relationship, all leading up to the predictable happy ending. It’s not a poorly made film; it’s just that one can certainly observe how this kind of story has been presented and re-presented a thousand times and will be again a thousand times more. Clearly, it’s something that often happens in real life.

Beautiful album by the London neo-psych band on the legendary Fuzz Club Records label. Balancing between Siouxsie’s electricity and MC5’s acid rock, with Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' theatricality and touches of shoegaze and noise. Very acid. A great album.

I'm not a great fan of Sacha Baron Cohen. I don't find him particularly brilliant, and it's undeniable that his movies are often stupid and sometimes gross or vulgar. So, there’s no relevant content in 'Grimbsy', an action movie with a spy plot directed by Louis Leterrier, but the buddy duo formed by Baron Cohen and Mark Strong works, and of course, some parts of the movie are really funny (for example, the scene where Baron Cohen does a humorous parody of Liam Gallagher), and I appreciate the genuine and funny way he depicted the suburbia of Grimbsy and the people who live there. Definitely, it's a movie where there are no limits in every possible sense, but it can make you smile. Not from start to finish: Baron Cohen is indeed unable to find a balance between making good comedy and degenerating into the vulgar and unhelpful. What a pity.

Louis Leterrier: Now You See Me
27 jun 16
Film directed by Louis Leterrier and featuring a rich cast including Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman, Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, Melanie Laurent, Michael Caine, Dave Franco, and Woody Harrelson. Standing out among them is the performance of the former, an actor I consider one of the best around, along with the usual Harrelson. Morgan Freeman is good too, but that's not news. An ambitious film, at times even spectacular, it tells the story of a group of four magicians who, in a tale tangled between fiction and reality, commit heists during their performances. The initial part is beautiful and captivating, but the film loses its way becoming a sort of action movie with the usual car chases seen and reviewed a thousand times. It recovers some points in the finale, but my overall judgment is insufficient. It could have been better.

Third album by 'Liga' after the excellent debut and the subsequent 'Lambrusco coltelli rose & pop corn'. If we exclude the classics 'Ho messo via' and 'Walter il mago', two of the songs still beloved by his fans and that somehow have withstood the test of time, everything else doesn’t work. Flop on all levels.

It's the record of the very famous cover of 'It's the End of the World as We Know It' by REM and 'Urlando contro il cielo', two songs that have particularly brought him luck. It has an incredibly polished and overly produced sound. I'm glad that the Rats saved 'Fuori tempo', a song that Ligabue had written years earlier and that the band from Spilamberto had already recorded (with the collaboration of Ligabue himself) on 'Indiani padani' in 1992.

Hannes Norrvide is definitely skilled when it comes to the revival of dark-wave and synth-pop sounds that were typical of the eighties, which are the secret to the success of his project Lust For Youth. Genre enthusiasts and nostalgia lovers will surely appreciate this latest work, 'Compassion', which, as far as I'm concerned, adds nothing to a genre that I believe has been drained and exhausted for some time now.
