  Halloween 1978

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 20 Sep 2021 3

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  "Every kid in Haddonfield thinks this place is haunted"

  From a film filled with so many creepy scenes, nothing really hits as hard as the very last moments of this. After a entire climax that doesn't let you breath during a single second of it, where you see Laurie being hunted by Michael, and no matter in eah corner or place she goes, it's all being consumed by shadows, destroyed by violence, and presented with death, somehow gets a moment…

  Resident Evil: Retribution 2012

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 13 Dec 2020 2

  "It's just like a camera. Point and shoot"

  Resident Evil: Retribution is genuinely one of the most layered action films of the past decade, maybe of all-time actually. I'm having a lot of difficult to begin this review, I wrote and rewrote this first paragraph so many times, trying new approaches and themes even knowing that it's impossible cover everything this movie has to offer, but then I recalled that well... this movie did exactly this

  Paul W.S. Anderson makes…

  Beau Travail 1999

  ★★★★½ Watched 02 Feb 2023

  "I'm rambling... ruminating. Begging for a word, a gesture"

  About men repressed beyond humanity. Every action is mechanical, every sentence is an order. Where only through Denis camera, we're able to see beauty within it, showing male bodies moving through the frame clashing into each other and the beautiful landscapes they are set in, the sky and the ocean never looked so blue

  There's a specific shot that shows the soldiers laying in the ground, resting after a training routine,…

  Monster Hunter 2020

  ★★★★ Watched 31 Jan 2023 1

  Anderson trying to emulate Fury Road has been a joy to witness, entire first half of this mostly is these incredibly well shot desert set-pieces that were so awesome, injecting that specific gameplay feeling through action that pretty much no other videogame adaptations gets it right. And the central heart of this, existing within the wordless dynamic between Milla and Jaa characters, two people from different world that through action, movement and gestures are able to form this very tangible…

  Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022

  ★★★½ Rewatched 29 Jan 2023 4

  "Your stupid plan to somehow save your daughter has managed to piss off everyone in the multiverse. But it just might work"

  Decided to give this another go, while I had a pretty positive opinion towards this, I can't deny a lot of it came more for what this accomplished stylistically and concept wise than as a well planned dramatic narrative. And the more I thought about this thing as a whole, and add this to the extreme polarized discourse…

  Lady in the Water 2006

  ★★★★★ Watched 30 Jan 2023 4

  "Thank you for saving my life"

  Literally about how embracing fantasy is everything we need to save ourselves. This is not an easy statememt to have, but this might be the most faithful Shyamalan has ever been, every single aspect of this gets strenght by the mere idea of being believed, the most grounded of things and the most spiritual, it's all portrayed within the same level, the same plain, the same shot

  Unapologetically direct too, almost too gente and…
