    EVERY FRAME A PAINTING

    The first thing I noticed about this film was the cinematography, WOW!! 
    The second thing I noticed was almost every frame in every scene looked like a painting, the colors, the lights just pure perfection! 

    And then to the story which I struggled a little bit to understand in the beginning, but everything fell right in to place in the end and after that I was captivated. 
    The symbolism is so strong, the intimacy that builds…

    THAT’S WHAT I CALL AN ADVENTURE!

    This film is extraordinary when it comes to world building! 
    There are so many beautiful shots of wonderful scenery with a lot of life and personality to it, and not to mention the music itself is perfectly orchestrated. 
    It really gives you that epic adventure tone right from the start. 

    The story is gripping and gets you excited right away. The action is wonderfully put together, and the rated R parts didn’t cut back…

    «THE GREATEST TRICK THE DEVIL EVER PULLED, WAS CONVINCING THE WORLD HE DIDN’T EXIST»

    That quote will forever be stuck in my brain now! 


    This film was such a fun watch. It starts with the classic Bryan Singer trademark: showing us the end of the film first, so we know where we're going to end up in the end.
    I thought the way plot was conducted was very cool and exciting in the beginning, but nothing like amazing og spectacular.…

    I’ve seen better heist/robbery films. 

    It started off as boring, then it got better and then it got boring all over again. 
    Really didn’t need to be as long as it is in my opinion. 

    I may be alone here, but I would have liked to see De Niro and Pacino's roles swapped. That would have been a better fit in my eyes. 

    Ending cool though, but the film in general not for me I’m afraid.

    WHAT A LOVELY FILM

    This was a truly beautiful, funny, creative and emotional experience. 
    Chihiro was so likeable and so were many of the other characters in this film. 

    The story is very imaginative and takes you on a journey that you in a way don’t wanna leave. 
    The world building is pretty to look at and the soundtrack is absolutely amazing, it made me a bit emotional and a little teary towards the end. 
    Studio Ghibli knows how it’s…
