    5/5 Stars – A Masterpiece of Emotion and Authenticity

    we accept the love we think we deserve, not the love we desire

    Rather than just a movie, it’s a heartfelt journey that captures the beauty, pain, and complexity of growing up.

    The film’s ability to tackle heavy topics like mental health, trauma, love, and belonging is both courageous and sensitive. It doesn’t gloss over the struggles of adolescence but approaches them with honesty and hope.

    This movie in my opinion…

  • Arrival

    Arrival

    ★★★★

    Where Arrival truly shines is in its storytelling. The nonlinear narrative, once fully unraveled, is both breathtaking and heartbreaking. However, the film’s deliberate pacing and complex structure might not appeal to everyone. It demands patience and close attention, rewarding those who embrace its slow-burn approach.

    I feel like the only shortcoming was that the global/political tensions were underdeveloped in relation to the very personal core of the story. 

    Usually I don’t enjoy sci-fi, but this film was so mesmerizing that it transcends the genre’s usual motif. Highly recommend to those who love a thought provoking cinema.
