 It’s as if the thought, our "background" cerebral activity, follows the progression of the music.

 The sound is a thick magma, impenetrable, yet luminous.

The reviewer appreciates Life Metal as less overtly dark than previous works but more exquisitely abstract. Dive into Sunn O)))'s Life Metal for an immersive and abstract drone metal experience—listen now and explore sonic depths!

 The choice of the great filmmaker is radical: his is an anti-epic narrative, anti-heroic, anti-romantic; it is comedic, frivolous, clownish.

 These are nobodies, brains in decay that make their greatest flaw (the lack of compassion) their tool to achieve success, to survive like tigers in the mafia jungle.

Marco Bellocchio’s film 'Il traditore' offers a daring and unconventional portrayal of the mafia, rejecting epic and romanticized narratives in favor of a comedic and anti-heroic approach.

Through Buscetta’s story and trial sequences, the movie emphasizes irony and absurdity rather than horror or intense drama. Bellocchio’s choice challenges common perceptions and leaves a memorable impact. Discover Bellocchio’s unique take on the mafia—watch 'Il traditore' and experience a bold, anti-epic crime saga.

 Here, Brooker seems to have become timid, he dares very little nowadays.

 This is not Black Mirror, it’s another Netflix TV series, yet another useless one.

Black Mirror Season 5 marks a disappointing chapter in the series, lacking the innovative futuristic insights it was known for. The episodes feel conservative and safe, focusing on contemporary issues already well-explored elsewhere. Visual storytelling and plot development fall flat, with faint moralizing messages overshadowing imaginative narratives. Despite some promising ideas and strong performances, the overall impact is underwhelming. Read our review and decide if Black Mirror Season 5 lives up to its legacy or has lost its edge.

 "Showing the hero smashing heads even when it’s not necessary is certainly a good and just mission, necessary."

 "It’s all a provocation, a demonstration that all it takes is a former stuntman as director and a lot of irony to make a good action film."

John Wick 3 delivers an over-the-top action experience with a clever blend of style, relentless shootouts, and self-aware humor. The film embraces its own excesses, creating a near-parody of traditional action tropes while maintaining engaging fight choreography and aesthetic flair.

Despite a somewhat thin plot, the movie’s audacity and irony make it an entertaining addition to the saga. Dive into John Wick 3’s relentless action and clever irony—experience this stylish shoot-’em-up today!

 A very predictable and ugly story, yet according to the screenwriters, it needs multiple explanations from the characters.

 In the end, it becomes a brawl not so different from Marvel’s (but much less beautiful, club fight vs duel at sword’s point, or the like).

Godzilla II disappoints with a predictable plot and oversimplified themes, abandoning the subtlety and balance of its predecessors. Despite impressive visual effects and monster battles, the story and character writing fall flat. The film attempts to compete with blockbuster franchises but lacks depth and coherence. Fans of traditional monster cinema may find this installment underwhelming. Read the full review and decide if Godzilla II's spectacle is worth your time or if you prefer classic monster cinema.

 After the seven moons of the apocalypse comes regeneration, after erotic despair comes love.

 Dalla sings with even more energy because he is no longer the humble prophet of the end of the world, but a herald who strains his voice to say that after death, of the world or every day, there is always an after, a rebirth, a dawn, a new year, a dance, a tango.

This review captures the emotional depth of Lucio Dalla’s self-titled album, highlighting its oscillation between despair and hope. The music combines pulsating bass, saxophone solos, and dramatic strings to support poetic lyrics and layered meanings. The album is situated between Dalla’s 1977 and 1980 works, portraying a complex mood of renewal amid skepticism. Milan serves as an emblematic backdrop, symbolizing the tension between life and death. Discover the evocative world of Lucio Dalla—listen to the album and experience its poetic dance between despair and hope.

 Beautiful images, fresh, as if Audiard were rethinking the genre from scratch in a film that is genre and beyond genre.

 To get noticed with a western, you need something more than this, which still remains a very respectable work in all its parts.

Jacques Audiard’s 'I Fratelli Sisters' offers a fresh take on the western genre with well-crafted characters and thoughtful themes. Despite its quality and strong performances, it lacks the intense charisma and malice that often define memorable westerns. The film explores complex moral questions and the fading Wild West, but its indecision between comedy and drama leaves the impact somewhat muted. Overall, a respectable and nuanced work that may not fully resonate with all western fans. Explore the nuanced world of 'I Fratelli Sisters' and discover a fresh take on the western genre.

 A great technology at the service of a lousy story.

 The chaos of the skirmishes and the poor response precision make it tough to give meaning to the strategies.

Final Fantasy XV presents cutting-edge graphics but fails to deliver a coherent and engaging story. Combat is chaotic and imprecise, while the open world and side missions often hinder pacing. The game's focus on accessibility reduces challenge, disappointing fans seeking depth. Despite some atmospheric moments, the overall experience feels like a missed opportunity. Discover if Final Fantasy XV lives up to the legacy or falls short—read the full review and dive into the game's world yourself!

 Lucas even had the narrative material to make a good movie, but precisely because the content is high (in theory), the mediocre artistic execution stands out even more.

 It’s an immersion into the roots of evil with a condom over your head, precluding from the start a true understanding of darkness.

This review criticizes Star Wars Episode III for its stiff acting, poor visual and narrative execution, and implausible character development.
