Even the most dramatic and intense moments pass without emotions, because we know little about those characters. The philosophical maxims that follow one another gratuitously are a clear sign of the author’s fatigue.

The review praises Paolo Sorrentino’s Parthenope for its exquisite visuals but criticizes the lack of a compelling story and character depth. The film’s philosophical ambitions come off as empty, making the overall narrative seem cold and disconnected. The focus on elite characters distances the film from the authentic spirit of Naples seen in Sorrentino’s previous work. Ultimately, the film feels like a superficial exploration lacking emotional engagement. Discover why Parthenope stuns the eyes but leaves the heart untouched—read the full review now!
"Megalopolis is a glaring bluff, a gigantic and enormously expensive construction that conceals an alarming void of ideas inside." "The elderly filmmaker who squanders millions on his last, excessively costly works of senile dementia."

The review condemns Megalopolis as an ambitious but deeply flawed film, plagued by confusing storytelling and shallow ideas. Despite its grand production and symbolism, it fails to deliver a meaningful narrative. Characters are one-dimensional and clichéd, while chaotic editing hampers comprehension. Coppola’s vision is criticized as muddled and unconvincing. Read our full review to discover why Megalopolis disappoints despite its grandeur and decide if it’s worth your time.
It’s not a great work, but it nevertheless shows a certain courage. A sequel that rows against itself, because the audience wants Joker, blood, and macabre dances—not the man behind the costume.

Joker: Folie à Deux is a daring and unconventional sequel that shifts from comic book spectacle to intimate drama and musical. While not flawless, it bravely explores the conflicted psyche of Arthur Fleck without providing clear answers. The film’s abundant musical sequences divide audiences and detract at times, yet its attempt to provoke thought through complex themes remains commendable. Despite poor audience reception and a commercial flop, Todd Phillips delivers a unique vision that challenges expectations. Discover Todd Phillips’ bold musical sequel—watch Joker: Folie à Deux and explore the psyche behind the mask.
Before judging and denouncing, then, perhaps it would be better to stop and reflect a little, to communicate, trying to understand the people around us. The mother protests with the school but receives preset answers, the teacher would like to tell the truth (or rather, his truth) to the mother, but is constantly stopped and censored by colleagues.

Kore-eda’s film L’innocenza (originally Kaibutsu) explores a complex narrative through three perspectives—the mother, teacher, and student—revealing misunderstandings within a rigid Japanese society. The film emphasizes how adults misinterpret teenagers and the difficulty of grasping a single truth amid societal pressures. Despite a slow, formal start, the story becomes vivid in the students’ world, offering a profound lesson on communication and empathy. Overall, it’s a compelling film recommended especially for parents and teachers. Watch Kore-eda’s L’innocenza to uncover the nuanced truths behind misunderstandings in school and family life.
George Miller’s mistake is putting too much plot into it. The sensation is that of witnessing a watered-down version of Fury Road.

George Miller's Furiosa attempts a vast origin story with intense action but suffers from an overambitious plot that undercuts character depth. While well-structured, the film feels less impactful than Fury Road. Notable scenes include a thrilling tanker battle, though CGI dampens its effect. Overall, a good but not exceptional addition to the Mad Max saga. Discover if Furiosa lives up to the Mad Max legacy—read the full review and decide for yourself!
It is not the monster itself that terrifies us, but the fact that he feels emotions, is torn by doubt, can suffer and live a complexity that we consider eminently human. Because evil in itself is not surprising, it almost bores: it is the arduous transition towards it that shakes us and makes us falter.

Werner Herzog's Nosferatu deviates from traditional horror by emphasizing the vampire's human emotions and existential torment. Klaus Kinski portrays a monster whose doubts, suffering, and desires make him disturbingly relatable. The film explores the terrifying transformation from human to evil and meditates on eternal life’s curse. Set against haunting music by Popol Vuh, the atmosphere amplifies the feeling of universal void and endless suffering. This work challenges viewers to question who the real monster is. Watch Herzog’s Nosferatu now to experience a vampire story that chills and moves with profound humanity.
I believe, but I’m not sure, that this is one of the best films ever made about tennis, because ultimately it’s not really about tennis. The dreadful Zendaya reveals herself as an original villain but weak in her motivations and utterly predictable in her actions.

Luca Guadagnino's Challengers uses a fragmented timeline to build intrigue and tension around a tennis rivalry. While visually impressive and musically effective, the story ultimately feels predictable and shallow. Characters, especially Zendaya's, lack depth, leaving the psychological drama surface-level despite stylistic ambitions. The film raises interesting questions but fails to fully satisfy on emotional or narrative levels. Discover the stylish yet flawed tennis drama Challengers—watch now and dive into Guadagnino's unique storytelling approach.
"The degradation of the barbarized man is contrasted with that of the turbo-capitalist man who takes his 'values' to the extreme." "The always slightly ironic style turns the bloodshed into slapstick brawls, transfiguring the inhumanity reached by man in 2296 in a grotesque key."

What remains if we take the soul out of a band like Pearl Jam? ... everything fades into boredom. You can’t think of spending the rest of your career chasing the mirage of those perfect songs, without realizing that by now you’re wandering in the middle of the desert.

The reviewer suggests the band is stuck in a creative rut, producing uninspired tracks that fail to innovate or surprise. Nostalgia for past hits contrasts sharply with disappointment in their current output. Discover why Pearl Jam's latest album misses the mark – read the full critical review now!
"Immense in writing as much as fragile in life, anxious, clinging to yet another cigarette." "Portraying such an artist without saying almost anything about his art is like depicting him in absentia."

The Rai fiction on Fabrizio De André offers a compelling yet imperfect glimpse into the songwriter's complex life, revealing both his poetic genius and human frailties. While the portrayal captures his struggles with addiction and personal relationships, it falls short of fully conveying the depth of his artistry. The second half loses momentum focusing on personal drama and omits deeper musical exploration. A more nuanced and auteur-driven approach would better honor De André's legacy. Discover the delicate life of Fabrizio De André through this thoughtful Rai fiction and explore the artist beyond the myth.
