Despite great reviews and good appreciation from the public, the record company dropped them without any warning.

 The dramatic events they had to endure acted as propellant, a vigorous push for a work that I personally consider among the best of the entire nineties.

Produced by Terry Date on a tight budget, it features dark, powerful riffs and emotional vocals. Despite being dropped by Epic Records after their debut, the band’s resilience shines through this underrated 90s album. The reviewer regards it as one of the best works of the decade. Explore Mind Funk's 'Dropped'—a powerful blend of metal and funk that overcame industry rejection.

 Everyone can say their own thing in this regard, but when someone tells me to go see a specific film for the 'special effects', I honestly don’t understand.

 Caesar might have been able to change the inertia of the entire film with a single gesture. But the finger does not pull the trigger at the decisive moment.

This review reflects deeply on the legacy of the Planet of the Apes franchise, particularly Matt Reeves' War for the Planet of the Apes. It appreciates the original film's rich sociopolitical themes and views the final trilogy as leaning more towards spectacle than speculative depth. The reviewer discusses character dynamics, especially Caesar’s moral choices, while critiquing the film's simpler good-versus-evil narrative. The work remains significant for genre fans despite its limitations. Discover the depth behind the spectacle—read the full review and explore the Planet of the Apes saga today!

 Considering the first period of her career, and leaving aside collections of stories, I personally consider Ranma ½ a certainly entertaining work but perhaps less successful than the previous ones.

 Her graphic style is among the most recognizable and emblematic of Japanese comics.

The review reflects on Rumiko Takahashi's Ranma ½ as a humorous and entertaining manga that showcases her distinctive style. The reviewer notes its lighter plot compared to her earlier works but appreciates the refined art and character designs. The story uses fantasy and comedy to engage mostly a younger audience, though it might not display the peak of Takahashi's humor.

 The film is exciting, especially on the conceptual level, and the ‘classical’ acting of the performers perhaps makes it distant from the typical patterns of today’s science fiction cinema, but the story is in itself undeniable and is enough alone to support the entire film.

 A breathtaking finale and at the same time full of symbolic meanings that dig deep into that great nightmare that was Adolf Hitler’s Nazi dream and which periodically returns.
