    Adolescence

    ★★★★★

    This is a show I would recommend to anyone considering parenthood. It offers a jaw-dropping exploration of adolescence, teenagehood, parenthood, and the profound impact of social media.

    No matter how well you think you’re doing as a parent, your child mirrors your behavior. They see everything, they feel everything. This show serves as a powerful reminder that to be a good parent, you must first improve yourself as a person.

    As for the show itself, the one-shot technique masterfully captures…

    I have only two words to describe this: 

    transcendent masterpiece.

    This goes straight as my favourite film of all time, YES, ALL TIME. Sorry The Godfather or Schindler’s List.

    I don’t think anyone can dispute this as the best science fiction film of all…

    ★★★★

    So real. So moving. So human.

    Hirokazu Koreeda’s Shoplifters brought a tear to my eye. This 2018 Palme d’Or winner centers around a family of shoplifters. Sounds like a simple story? Watch how this film unfolds within its simple story. The story touches on themes deeper than that. The characters, the human relationship, and the sheer idea of “what’s really right in this society?” was evident and really captivates my heart.

    Koreeda-san has turned 6 incredibly flawed human beings and…
