King Richard 2021
The Fine Line Between Vision and Pressure
Watching „King Richard“ left me with a mix of admiration and unease. The film delves into the life of Richard Williams, the determined father behind the rise of tennis legends Venus and Serena Williams, but it also forces the viewer to question the cost of such relentless ambition.
On one hand, Richard is portrayed as a strict, uncompromising figure—a man whose fierce belief in his daughters’ potential drives him to implement rigorous training…

Satantango 1994
On one of my first dates with my girlfriend, I joked that I was going to watch Sátántangó soon—and of course, she thought I was completely crazy. If you’re not deeply into films, the idea of watching a more-than-seven-hour-long Hungarian rural drama with English subtitles (as a German) certainly sounds a bit absurd. However, ever since I heard about the film, it has held a certain fascination for me, and I was determined to see it.
Eventually, the time came,…

The Terminator 1984
I think The Terminator is a groundbreaking film that still captivates audiences with its innovative blend of sci-fi and action. Cameron’s portrayal of relentless machines and human resilience feels timeless, and the original story truly set the stage for a whole new genre in cinema.
What I didn’t liked was that some parts might seem a bit dated compared to modern effects, but the narrative’s raw intensity and ingenuity more than make up for it.
Overall, I believe this movie remains a must-watch classic that continues to influence filmmakers and thrill fans alike.Translated from by -
The Blair Witch Project 1999
„The Blair Witch Project“ was, as I thought, a disappointment. The shaky camera work was more annoying than immersive, making it hard to watch. On top of that, the film was mostly boring, with too much aimless wandering and very little real suspense. The ending was eerie, but it didn’t make up for the dull build-up.

Poor Things 2023
I’ve been hyped about this movie since I read the first reviews back in September last year. I actually always try to avoid this because it often leads to disappointment when your expectations weren’t met.
Since I didn't know Yorgos Lanthimos before, I watched his other films in preparation and was amazed how good and unconventional they were. But „Poor Things“ is definitely his best work so far. Emma Stone's acting is breathtaking, the fantasy world is fantastically staged and…Translated from by -
Dune: Part Two 2024
I just had one of the most strange moments in my life. When I left the cinema yesterday evening, the moon was covered in bright orange as if Arrakis itself was right over me. I don't know if you could only see it in Germany but it was so surreal.
As far as the film goes, Denis Villeneuve fortunately picks up right where he left off in part one. „Dune: Part Two“ is, like the first one, simply an epic…
