Negramaro Meraviglioso
Voto:
I even sat through one of their concerts years ago: and it didn't even serve the purpose and they even gifted me a CD (La Finestra) on which I wrote a review. Life sentence just for that. For certain bands, it should be illegal to attempt covers of historic tracks. At my workplace, I'm forced to listen to RDS for eight hours, and I must say that Negramaro (they've even ruined the name of a wine) stand out for their auditory annoyance even among a pile of low-quality, hyper-commercial music. The frontman's voice reminds me of a nightmare trying to clean a frying pan with its little hand.
Raymond Carver Vuoi star zitta per favore?

The book is very nice, even though I prefer (and recommend) Cathedral and Beginners. Altman hit the jackpot with America Oggi because, in my opinion, it nearly holds up against the stories from which it originates and takes shape in the form of images. I might just weave a review on it... The review is good because it describes Carver's style with endings that sometimes aren't really endings, the importance of chance, normality, and the less noble aspects of being human. I really like this author, and I'm not a big admirer of "short stories." I waver between a 3 and a 4 for the work.
Isaac Asimov Trilogia della Fondazione

Ok Clancy is better than Cussler and Brown, etc., but we’re more or less there. Same structure of the book, pure entertainment that saturated me although I don’t regret the pleasant hours spent together.
The essence of my provocation was due to the fact that for five years I started reading various Steinbeck, Fante, Bolaño, Jodorowsky, Chandler, Caldwell, Hemingway, Vian, Fitzgerald, Auster, Roth, McGrath, Sciascia, Buzzati, Calvino, Moravia, Saramago, Faulkner, Bulgakov, Carver, Chekhov, Capote, Svevo, etc.
In short, from the lightness of bestsellers to the classics that stay impressed in my mind for years and make me think.

I tremble at the thought... Crazy nonsense is coming?!? It's the director of The Day After Tomorrow, so definitely a lot of psychohistory and zero special effects!
Queen Made In Heaven
Voto:
The first time I find a ;) in a review. Not bad the already mentioned va'... Next time I want some kkkk too. Joking aside, even though I'm not particularly fond of English queens, do you really prefer this filigree-rhetoric nonsense over Queen II???

The review is quite intriguing. I like the way you write. Until next time.

Mine is not an orthodox review, complete, etc... I just wrote because the work surprised me in how much I enjoyed it, and it was time to bring Asimov to Debasio! I believe I will take advantage of my brother's passion for the genre to explore it further at my own pace.

I have no doubt that the book was completely different. Hi

60 million in earnings with a negligible expense? I doubt it will be the last exorcism. After Blair Witch Project, I had enough.
Joel & Ethan Coen A proposito di Davis
Voto:
I'm sorry to say it, but this movie disappointed me quite a bit. It caught me off guard (and this is a good thing because the brothers continue to vary their film types) with a gray, melancholic, and sad atmosphere, well-rendered by a winter New York only partially marked by a less flashy humor than usual and a minimal amount dispensed. The soundtrack, editing, and cinematography were beautiful (things that I tend to take for granted when I settle into a cinema seat to watch the latest Coen release). The use of the cat metaphor (the protagonist’s yo-yo life) and some scenes were successful, but overall I can't deny that throughout the film's first half, I was waiting for a change of pace that never came. Goodman’s cameo was less effective than I would have thought, while I liked the sharp and concise ending. Yesterday I rewatched "Crossroads of Death" (the lesser-known masterpiece that stands up to "The Man Who Wasn't There," "No Country for Old Men," "The Big Lebowski," and "Fargo"), and this heightened my disappointment because the qualitative difference between the two works is striking, to say the least. I eagerly await the next one. My rating is three strained stars, two very hefty. "Burn After Reading," without great pretensions, fully satisfied me, "A Serious Man" had some brilliant moments, and I enjoy rewatching it occasionally; "Courage" is a good remake, even though Damon doesn't really perform his part well. This film, however, well, I don't know what will stick with me in two or three years.
