    The Lobster

    ★★★★

    a surreal and darkly comedic exploration of love, societal pressure, and human connection. Set in a dystopian world where single people must find a partner within 45 days or be transformed into an animal, the film is both thought-provoking and unsettling.Colin Farrell delivers a compelling performance as David, a man navigating the absurd rules of the hotel while grappling with emotional vulnerability. The stark cinematography and deadpan dialogue enhance the film's eerie atmosphere, while the contrast between the rigid hotel…

    Mickey 17

    ★★★½

    "You can’t put two boxes into one box." 

    While Mickey 17 presents a fascinating premise and delves into thought-provoking ethical and social issues, it ultimately falls short of fully realizing its potential.The first half is engaging, with a fast-paced narrative that effectively sets up the moral dilemmas at play.

    GoodFellas

    ★★★★½

    a masterclass in storytelling, blending style, grit, and dark humor to craft one of the greatest crime films ever made. Ray Liotta’s electrifying performance as Henry Hill pulls us deep into the allure and chaos of the mob world, while Joe Pesci’s terrifying unpredictability and Robert De Niro’s calculated coolness make every scene unforgettable. The film’s rapid pacing, iconic soundtrack, and immersive narration keep it endlessly engaging. While some may find its relentless energy overwhelming, there’s no denying its brilliance. A near-perfect gangster epic.
