 The choice to follow the Act Up assemblies... did not benefit the specificity of the political discourse underpinning the film.

The review critiques the script's inconsistency and the film’s struggle to balance political ambition with aesthetic clarity. Overall, the reviewer finds the film partially successful but lacking depth in parts. Discover the emotional intensity and political struggles in '120 battiti al minuto'—watch and form your own perspective.

 The fear of It is in limine, it is precisely a priori.

 Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise works but needs to shriek, to approach its prey frenziedly; he is almost never scary on his own.

This review reflects on the unique conceptual fear in Andrés Muschietti's It, highlighting its strengths in capturing Stephen King's idea. The film is praised for good directing and character portrayal but critiqued for overused jump scares and less impactful Pennywise compared to the 1990 version. While not a masterpiece, it remains a decent horror movie that resonates through its theme of childhood fear. Discover the deeper fears behind Pennywise and experience the film’s haunting atmosphere with this detailed review!

 Great cinema is when images assume a life of their own, allowing individual interpretation.

 Mother! offers a disenchanted, crude, and sociologically interesting portrayal of motherhood and marital life.

 The invention of cookies really left me speechless.

 A much harsher Inception.

The episode's structure, surprises, and social commentary make it a standout dystopian narrative. Dive into Black Mirror: White Christmas—experience its twisty, chilling vision of technology and justice today!
