It is truly amazing how much this movie holds up until this day. I watched it 42 years after its release as a kid who is a big fan of modern movies, and always skeptical regarding to older movies. And even if some concepts wouldn't work very well nowadays, it's so magical and incredible that I really couldn't care less.

E. T. Has recently become my favorite movie of all time, and for tons of reasons. Firstly, the acting in this movie is fantastic, and being led by 3 young children, it is really impressive how well they are able to transmit emotion and charisma, specially Elliot (Henry Thomas). The movie is filled with very funny and heartwarming moments and the pacing is great combined with some very nice action scenes and one of the most iconic moments ever, it being the bycicle chase near the end of the movie. And what consolidates this movie as my all-time favorite has to be the dynamic between E. T. and Elliot, that brings a lot of beutiful and emotional moments, as well as a fantastic lesson about friendship.

If you haven't watched this movie, go on and watch it. It's amazing all along, both for children and adults.

FROMSOFTWARE DID IT AGAIN. They gave us a dlc that is better and presents more content than 99% of the games we see out there. It is absolutely fantastic, improving upon everything the base game did right and correcting some mistakes.

This dlc contains 3 main legacy dungeons, and tons of secondary areas. The main ones are super fun and intriguing to explore, and some of the best we have seen yet. The secondary ones, although not that great, for obvious reasons, seem way more unique than the repeated dungeons of the first game with some very interesting bosses.

The bosses also shine here: there are 10 main ones and a lot of secondary bosses, and they are some of the hardest bosses Fromsoftware has ever created, and also some of the best and most fantastic boss fights I have ever seen.

I also need to say the lore and characters are very unique, expanding a lot from what we had previously learned about some characters, and it might also change the way you look at some of your favorite characters.

The weapons also feel great to use, and they definetely help to bring a lot of variety into the dlc and the base game.

Overall, I can't praise more Myazaki and his team for creating such a masterpiece, certainly one of the best dlcs of all time (if not the best), and it's a mandatory experience for Elden Ring lovers.

Before Elden Ring, I wasn't used to playing games apart from the multi-player ones, and when I saw about this amazing open world, I was instantly dragged to it. So I bought it and started playing, and to enjoy most of the challenge I decided to play it without summons. And it was definitely challenging, but also the best experience I ever had with a videogame since! This sticks together with Red Dead Redemption 2 as my two favorite games of all time. And I have played a lot of game franchises since.

Almost everything in this game is perfectly polished! The open world is the perfection of everything we had yet seen, with amazing exploration, visually stunning graphics, a perfect art design withing every corner, combined with a masterpiece of a level design, with satisfying rewards to compensate for your exploration and to make you feel how your character is progressing. Torrent was also a fantastic addition, as he not only helps you traverse the map, but also makes it a lot of fun considering the fact that he can double jump and be helpful in a lot of combats against enemies, adding a lot to the game.

The combat is a mix of everything Fromsoftware has done till this date, combined in such deep, fun and intricate battles. It takes a lot of the combat speed from the later titles (Bloodborne and Dark Souls 3), combines it with a posture system to leave your opponent open to a visceral attack, inspired from Sekiro, and at the same time adds the jump button ( finally ) letting you use it in combat for jump attacks, making it truly unique.

The bosses are truly amazing, as they force you to learn their movement and attacks to be able to beat them, with visually stunning designs for the bosses and their arenas. They are very aggressive, but with the patience to to truly learn about the battle, they can be defeated and bring you a big feeling of achievement and reward when you do so. The bosses are also amazing characters and they tie up perfectly with the intricate lore of the game.

As every other game, it does have its flaws, them being the repition of bosses (mostly in dungeons) and some unfair delayed moves from enemy and bosses can be truly frustrating. But all of this rarely takes away from the experience considering it has such amazing qualities to pair it off.

If you haven't played the game yet, go on and play it because I am almost sure you are going to have a truly amazing experience, and it might even drag you to play the other games in this series created by Hidetaka Myazaki and his team. It definitely deserved the award of Game of the Year, and is one of the best games of all time.

I have always been a fan of Christopher Nolan's movies, and for me he is one of the best directors from nowadays, if not the absolute best. The combination of a complex and very deep plot, amazingly well developed characters and the intrigue of the story that always keeps me watching are just some of the elements that make his movies so great. I had high expectations with this movie, and being myself a fan of astronomy and having studied before a bunch of the theories of physics and relativity, this movie couldn't impress me more than it did. It takes its time to explain the story and develop the characters, that were played by such amazing actors. Everything about this movie is amazing. Its visually stunning, its story and characters make you intrigued at every moments of the film, the theories of physics and relativity are such a wonder in this movie combined with the beautiful scenarios, and the ending just got me shocked and I really didn't expect it. If you haven't watched this movie, go watch this masterpiece that might just give you one of the best moments you will ever have with movies.
