  Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 12 Mar 2024

  A movie with a very interesting idea. This idea of a multiverse was executed in a very unique way. I can understand why this film won the Oscar in 2022; the story is coherent, though sometimes a mess. I think the script is very well written as well. The movie was emotional at times and funny. I did not absolutely love it, but I did like it.

  ★★★½ Watched 16 Mar 2024

  Christopher Nolan's first film! I am a fan of Nolan and I just recently got the chance to watch his first film. I really wanted to love it, but the movie just does not have the same spark as other Nolan films. The movie is not too bad, but the story lacked a little bit. Being Nolan's first film, I'd say he did a pretty good job. He learned from this experience and later created some of the best movies ever.

  Memento 2000

  ★★★★★ Watched 12 Mar 2024

  Christopher Nolan's second film and a written masterpiece. The movie follows an intellectual story structure, which works perfectly. There are two timelines: one is shown in color and the other in black and white. The color sequences are going backwards in time, while the black and white sequences are going forward. These makes up for a very interesting storytelling, showing Nolan's talent. Focusing on the story itself, I really enjoyed it. The movie is a puzzle and the audience gets to put everything together. Nolan wrote the story with such ambiguity that it's just amazing. This movie is definitely one of my favorites!

  Manchester by the Sea 2016

  ★★★★★ Watched 15 Mar 2024

  An emotional and hearbreaking story. This is the movie that I had been wanting to watch. The movie does a fantastic job in telling a story that gets to you. As the movie kept going, I felt I was understanding the main character better; I felt sympathy. Casey Afflect does a perfect job portraying this character. In the future, I'd like to make a movie like this; a movie in which the audience feels troubled by sadness.
