    Interstellar

    ★★★★

    Christopher Nolan’s interstellar is an incredible sci-fi movie, and upon rewatch i actually believe i enjoyed it even more than my original watch through, but i still personally view it as slightly overrated. Don’t get me wrong, this film is a masterpiece in terms of narrative, score, acting and cinematography, but i perceive the movie to drag out in parts, for example, the whole altercation with Matt Damon’s character Dr Mann. Although i enjoyed this story arc, it just felt…

    It’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be.”

    The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a beautiful, touching, poignant and bittersweet movie following the life of “Benjamin Button” living his life in reverse. The film is beautifully photographed and true to the periods it represents, with the background score capturing the film’s essence perfectly, tranquil and serene. Brad Pitt is fantastic as usual, and those CGI and makeup techniques for him…

    The Silence of the Lambs

    ★★★★½

    Surprised it took me this long to watch but what a movie. Genuinely unsettling from the first scene to the very last. Jodie Foster is excellent as Clarice, but Anthony Hopkins stole the show for me, in one of those performances that make you fully aware that he is a generational actor, outstanding performance. The dynamic and chemistry between Hopkins and Foster is palpable, the tension, the unease, making you wonder who is playing who.

    If suspense and psychological thrillers are for you, then this must rate as one of the greatest ever made. 

    Overall: 4.6/5

    Rewatched this movie recently and it’s still as amazing as i remember it being. The film deals with such sensitive topics such as suicide, depression and anxiety by illustrating the emotional struggles of its characters and the journey towards understanding and redemption, ultimately delivering a powerful message about healing and the impact of supportive relationships. The animation is wonderful, the pacing is deliberate, the cinematography is careful and beautiful, the voice actors are brilliant. Just such a good movie that…
