Dune: Part Two 2024
Greig Fraser has outdone himself. Ultra-wide shots that reduce characters to grains of sand are interspersed with incredible detail. He is deft in emphasizing nuances and majestic in shaping scales. Villeneuve tries to discard all the geopolitical references that are the core of Frank Herbert's novel and simply enjoys the lore. Visionary.. so his language consists exclusively of pictures, frames and symbolic props. The internal component of the novel is lost behind external beauty. And that's not bad ;)

Poor Things 2023
Hilarious, challenging and captivatingly picturesque. This steampunk phantasmagoria is true art, where semantics, subtexts and openwork monograms do not interrupt each other. My absolute favorite Lanthimos movie.

Top Gun: Maverick 2022
I am not usually a fan of the next movie in a series, but this one was fantastic. Overall a very good story line for a sequel, beautiful cinematography and even better movie score. The action scenes were incredible, I can't think of one thing I disliked. Cruise truly believes he can save movie theaters. If he keeps making movies like this.. oh my. Excellent!

Obi-Wan Kenobi 2022
Very excited to see Ewan and Hayden reprise their roles. However, this is probably the only bright side of this show.
It beats me how Disney allows such poor writing. There were some intersting ideas and themes, but bad editing and non-sensical character motivations combine for disappointment. Feels rushed, underbaked and under budgeted.
