Mickey 17 2025
Despite its somewhat potpourri of SF influences which gives it a predictable side in its narrative construction, the film is still enjoyable to watch, notably thanks to a fairly effective editing, its comedy around death and its concept of expendables (without neglecting
the questions that arise from it) and a Robert Pattinson in full ham who perfectly manages to give his different incarnations a very distinct physicality and intonation.
I would have perhaps liked a less Hollywood ending and a slightly more virulent satire (but that unfortunately is also a bit due to the current context which goes a little too far beyond fiction)Translated from by -
Limonov: The Ballad 2024
Explosive and unflattering portrait of a pathetic and megalomaniacal author. It's a bit like the Joker but good (by being a bit caricatured). Serebrennikov's direction is impressive in its inventiveness and panache.

Kids Return 1996
Again with Kitano, it's beautiful and melancholic.
I really like the young duo and their quest for meaning in their lives. Joe Hisaishi's music is always magnificent. In short it's really good (but I prefer Hana-Bi I think)Translated from by -
The Bad Sleep Well 1960
The way Kurosawa readapts Hamlet into contemporary Japan is brilliant. The staging perfectly highlights, thanks to its light which plays on chiaroscuro, the film's themes of impunity and injustice.
