12 Angry Men 1957
“You don’t really mean you’ll kill me, do you?”
—I was finally able to check another classic off my list with the vision of Sydney Lumet’s 1957 masterpiece, 12 Angry Men.
Everything from the direction, editing, screenplay, and acting (Henry Fonda, Lee J. Cobb, and Joseph Sweeney above all) touches moments of absolute glory and perfection, and the film delivers many powerful minutes of outstanding cinema.
The work of Lumet and his crew, together with the brilliant performance of…Translated from by -
Raging Bull 1980
Jake LaMotta is the anti-Barbie ™️.
It’s since the first beautiful black and white shots when we see Vicky by the pool that I realized Scorsese made a miracle with this film, he captured the essence of a woman as the ultimate object of desire.
It’s counterintuitive that portraying misogyny so explicitly and openly could possibly deliver a positive message and benefit anyone’s experience, but for me bringing it in full display is a more effective way of communicating to…Translated from by

Black Bag 2025
Black Bag is a 94 minutes spy story packed with dialogues between 6 professional liars that (at least at first sight) appear to be wanting to fuck each other in every possible way.
It’s rare for me to say this, but I felt the plot really lacked some mindless and senseless action to break away from those tedious moments that inevitably arise when the essence of the story can be summarized with: “let’s find out who’s fucking with us and…Translated from by -
Mickey 17 2025
Bong Joon Ho’s Megalopolis.
Politically charged and disseminated with bizarre concepts and acrobatic exchanges, Mickey 17 takes place in a dystopian Sci-Fi world where, as per Bong Joon Ho’s tradition, society is affected by extreme wealth inequality (essentially the amplification of today’s Crony Capitalism).
Mickey 17 builds some momentum with its eye-catching narrative during the first half, but then loses its rhythm and diverges into too many split ends that feel forced and meaningless, overstaying its welcome by a good…Translated from by

Decision to Leave 2022
A prime example of what happens when a director gets too confident about his abilities.
Cool symbolism and some really nice shots, but I stopped caring for the characters and what they were doing on screen after about an hour into the movie. The second half gradually evolved from a house chore to a harsh punishment.
The storytelling felt too convoluted, and it’s bringing very little new material to the table, making your wonder if Park Chan-wook’s previous exploits were just…Translated from by -
TÁR 2022
With Tár, Todd Field builds a rigorous and obsessively polished world where he is sapiently dosing sparks of raw orchestral music with the complexity of Lydia Tár's fictional character.
The film's original screenplay is brilliantly written and executed, deftly exploring several contemporary themes such as the dismantling of patriarchal society, modern democracy, and the inherent corruption that arises from the centralization of power.At the heart of the film's themes lies Lydia Tár's personal struggle, which is marked by the loneliness…
