The Substance 2024
If Tarantino has a thing for shooting feet, Coralie loves shotting butts. Everyone that has watched her debut film knows that, but she let herself loose here as she's broken the record of the most butts on screen with this one, a record used to be held by Abdellatif Kechiche's Mektoub, My Love, and the best part is because she is a woman, the woke crowd can't say jack shit about it.
Anyway, in all seriousness, Coralie delivers a body…

Burning 2018
The gravitational pull this film applies on me is proving to be unmatched. It's proving so even compared to the movies that first introduced me and made me fall in love with this art form. Since this film came out, it's been the one I've watched the most (fourth time watching it).
South Korean cinema has always provided exceptional products, but it sure raised its game this past 10-year with Bong and Chan-Wook, among others, delivering some of the better…

Emilia Pérez 2024
Someone forgets his glasses in a museum, and people start photographing them.
"It's sad" fails to describe how I feel about Emilia Pérez coming out as the big winner of one of the most prestigious cinema awards. I believe people in Hollywood have long lost the ability to recognize great art, and each year after these major awards, I become even more convinced about that. I think people in Hollywood are so engrossed in the idea that these films are…

Nosferatu 2024
Eggers is one of the filmmakers whose work I'm following closely. Although his movies are far from being masterpieces, especially the last two, The Lighthouse and The Northman, they are, at worst, solid pieces of cinema. As an audience, you know you're going to get treated respectfully watching one of his films, and that's why I included Nosferatu in my ten most anticipated films of the year months before the film's release date, deprived of the critic's guidance. But again,…

Oppenheimer 2023
He got me thinking he was flexing when Rami Malek showed up to say nothing the first time and to say nothing and also be disrespected, for lack of a better word, by Cillian's character the second time. I thought this was his apology to Cillian for casting him only in tiny roles during all those years of collaboration. In my mind, I was picturing Chris saying to Cillian, "Alright, I haven't been good to you, to put it gently,…

The Green Knight 2021
Ah, finally, the first noteworthy new film after quite a while. I had this film buried in my watchlist for more than a year now, and lately, after the rave reviews that got from almost everyone, my need for watching it was soaring wild. A24 kept this from sliding it into any streaming platform and released it in cinemas only when the pandemic situation got a little "safer" because they were confident in the product they had in their hands.…
