    Babygirl

    ★★

    The storyline, while intriguing, is heavily grounded in themes of psychological tension rather than sensual release, and the film doesn’t shy away from exploring the darker aspects of human desire.

    The film’s exploration of eroticism feels more uncomfortable than seductive, with the intimate moments between characters occasionally crossing into the realm of emotional discomfort rather than passion.

    Overall, Babygirl was kinky, but you don’t end up rooting for anyone or leave satisfied.

  • Challengers

    Challengers

    ★★★★★

    Come on!!!

    Challengers excels in its cinematography, film score, and performances, creating a visually and emotionally immersive experience.

    This movie pairs striking visuals with dynamic framing, especially in tennis match sequences and intimate character moments. The cinematography captures both the vastness of the competition and the personal struggles of the characters.

    The film’s score complements the visuals with subtle, evocative music that enhances the emotional depth of the story. Zendaya delivers a powerful performance, balancing vulnerability and ambition.

    Overall a triumph, with its stunning visuals, compelling music, and strong performances making for a deeply engaging film.

    Are you f*cking kidding me?! 

    Anora is a beautifully crafted and directed film that captivates from start to finish.

    Mikey Madison delivers a standout performance as Anora, skillfully portraying what I find to be her emotional journey of self-discovery and inner conflict.

    The film’s stunning cinematography and atmospheric visuals enhance its powerful themes of resilience and personal growth.

    anna kendrick is truly THAT woman of the hour 

    this true story adaptation, directorial debut by kendrick, offers a unique perspective on media manipulation and a reflection on how people—particularly women—are often reduced to nothing more than a pretty face that can easily be set up and captured by those who think they’re deserving. 

    overall, a captivating blend of dark humor and compelling storytelling that makes this film a well worth watch.
