Sublime. And what a surprise, the introduction of the sax. Worth mentioning is the dizzying struggle with the beast.
Wes Anderson La trama fenicia
Voto:
He didn't convince me. I think Anderson, for some films now, has taken the path of self-referential complacency, which produces obsessively perfect but sterile works. The last two films seem to me like interior design exhibits. Focusing on this, I was bored by the convoluted and unnecessarily cerebral plot, as well as the characters reduced to little more than apathetic and verbose figurines.
Todd Phillips Joker: Folie à Deux
Voto:
It takes the flaws of the first film and amplifies them. If in the first one there was fundamentally the same scene repeating endlessly, here we have a huge pause devoid of events, which concludes when the film should actually start. Songs that are not fully integrated into the narrative fabric, as well as great classics that indicate a certain laziness in composing a soundtrack that remains unoriginal. As pleasant as it is to watch, it remains a waste of time for me.

A breath of fresh air. The perfect melody, catchy and charming. Three minutes of lightness (sung quite well, by the way) in a lineup filled with melodramatic whines and aphasic singers or those with swollen tongues, borrowed from the trap scene.

I appreciate the review but I disagree. Aside from some kitsch choices and the lack of care in hiding the original names, as in Oates's novel, I believe we lose the provocative, camp perspective from which the film starts. It's not a biopic, but a film that exaggerates Hollywood's deadly machine. Marilyn was first and foremost an icon and a sex symbol, squeezed dry according to the methods and sensibilities of the 50s. The skirt raised over the grate, according to the prudery of the 50s, can be compared to Stone's crossed legs. If we start from the assumption of this thesis, evident and intentional by the director, I think we are faced with a powerful work that highlights the flaws of a world that appears sweet on the surface.

Seen. At a certain point, unfortunately, the plot falls into various excesses, personal and sentimental, outlining the exaggerated figure of a martyr. I also find Stewart's acting a bit too pronounced, bordering on mimicry. As a biopic, I found Jackie to be on another level: precise, understated, and supported by an acting style based on internalizing a character.
Madonna Confessions On A Dancefloor
Voto:
Beautiful review, but in my opinion a bit off the mark. The album, on the other hand, is immense for the genre, more for the musical research that underlies it than for the lyrics, which don’t deserve such extensive analysis.
Ridley Scott House of Gucci
Voto:
As a movie, it's watchable, but I found it quite outdated in its setup and unfolding, as well as overly touristy. A product aimed at amerrigani, at times even offensive. I remember the line "In Italy, taxes are not important." Health care, however, is—Americans don't give a damn. By the way, the film is structured like a soap opera and surprisingly overlooks the glamorous and creative aspects related to the world of fashion. Did you understand what old-school Gucci style consisted of? I didn't. Not to mention the revolution brought about by Tom Ford, which was only briefly sketched. I think these were aspects that needed further development, given the environment this film aimed to celebrate.
