Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 2023
I'm far from the ideal spectator for this series because (1) I'm not a fan of cel shading, I dislike the textures and how the light interacts with the surfaces, adding the style of tattoo everyone was getting in 2015 in the mix is also a minus for me (2) I think the multiverse superhero thing, with its false notions of expantion, is bad for the genre and it's fast-tracking it into irrelevancy.

Son of Saul 2015
There's no entrance point for those like me who didn't have an immediate response to Nemes' aesthetical propositions. This is Two Days, One Night but in hell, on both geographical and ideological senses: a man with a task runs against the clock; but while the Dardennes offer room to breathe and hope, Saul's task was born doomed. So what're left with is a vicious "first-hand experience" of what Nemes thought an adventure in a nazi concentration camp was like, which is just as unnecessary and inhumane as it sounds.
