 I found myself watching a film that managed to make me despise violence.

 The plot is the most banal I’ve seen in recent years and scenes of violence so exaggerated they are grotesque.

The review of Il'ja Najšuller's Io Sono Nessuno expresses disappointment with the overly violent and banal storyline. While the soundtrack and some elements hold interest, the exaggerated violence and clichéd plot detract from the film’s potential. The reviewer compares it unfavorably to other action films and warns about spoilers throughout. Notable aspects include the use of music and the presence of veteran actor Christopher Lloyd. Discover the gritty reality behind Il'ja Najšuller’s Io Sono Nessuno—read the full review and decide if the action is worth it.

 Oz Perkins knows his stuff; he’s written and directed this thrillhorror just right.

 The soundtrack by Elvis Brooke Perkins plays a very important role in creating that state of anxiety or 'fear' that precedes the most gruesome or particular scenes.

Oz Perkins skillfully directs the horror thriller Longlegs, supported by strong performances from Nicolas Cage and Maika Buckley. The soundtrack by Elvis Brooke Perkins adds to the tension, enhancing the film's anxiety-inducing atmosphere. Despite a somewhat predictable ending, the film delivers solid thrills and suspense.

 There is a narrative trademark characteristic of his, and it is evident in not burdening the American procedural themes, which become quite fluid and sharp under his direction.

 The film is worth watching even just for its unexpected ending and the beginning characterized by what we usually call 'the coincidences of fate'.

The review highlights the presence of Clint Eastwood's children and Kiefer Sutherland in small but significant roles. The film's themes revolve around justice, truth, and human nature, portrayed with Eastwood's characteristic fluid direction. It touches on the personal internalization of complex themes and career ambitions conflicting with truth.

 I was somewhat impressed (positively all in all) by the scenes and the raw events with which the film unravels the threads of the story.

 The main character is Franklin, a really unconventional guy, who enjoys playing in his underwear a sort of Tyrolean horn two or three meters long.

Jonas Åkerlund's 2012 film Small Apartments is a darkly humorous and quirky story featuring an unconventional protagonist and a notable cast. The reviewer praises the raw storytelling and character depth, highlighting standout performances by William Edward Crystal, James Caan, and Dolph Lundgren.

 I found it very touching to see a Nanni Moretti, now seventy years old, who reveals signs of imminent old age... but still having the desire to depict lives, situations, and places.

 I appreciated the subtle critique towards Netflix when it makes two of its officials repeatedly say '...in 190 countries of the world!'

 Right from the start when the psychiatrist asks Arthur/Joker what he remembers about the latest murders, he replies: 'the music', and this says a lot about the continuation of the film’s narration.

 One of the scenes that I liked the most was the emblematic one where Joker/Arthur laughs and cries in the rain in the courtyard of the psychiatric prison.

 Boris theatrically addresses us viewers, acting as a narrator.

 The film is worth the money spent at the cinema if only for the soundtrack by Sir George Ivan 'Van' Morrison.

 I often found it boring despite its short duration, but it does convey something about how even those who didn't side with one faction or the other were forced to live.

Kenneth Branagh's Belfast is a semi-autobiographical film portraying the struggles of a working-class family during the late 1960s Northern Ireland conflict. The standout feature is Van Morrison's soundtrack, including a new original song. The film is primarily in black and white with some color scenes. While the narrative offers insight into life during political unrest, the pacing can feel slow and less engaging for some viewers. Branagh’s script earned him an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. Watch Kenneth Branagh's Belfast for its evocative story and timeless Van Morrison soundtrack today.

 There’s God and there’s the devil, there’s the fear of death and the desire to commit suicide, there’s the thirst for life and the thirst for love.

 What matters are the questions one asks, clearly, everyone has their measure, and no one is better than another, not even the ‘mad’, if not perhaps, ahem, the mathematicians...

Cormac McCarthy's Stella Maris, published posthumously, is a complex and profound novel blending philosophy, psychology, and personal tragedy.

It is part of a duology with The Passenger and offers no clear answers, focusing instead on the importance of questions. Dive into the haunting depths of Stella Maris and experience McCarthy’s masterful storytelling and profound reflections.
