Not often will you watch a comedy anti-hero film, because I don't think its a good combination. But not only is this film funny, it was also well done.It was easy and fun to watch. The script was fantastic, and the pace was on-point. Glen Powell is halfway in his journey to become Hollywood's mainContinue reading "Hit Man (2023) Film Review"
Cop (1988) Film Review
Watching an old film feels like a gamble when you've watched recent films from this millenia. You're either gonna love or hate the old grainy vibe. This wasn't a good vibe for me, but I stayed, hoping it would get better. At first, it was interesting, then as the story went on, the more theContinue reading "Cop (1988) Film Review"
Narc (2002) Film Review
Dark and scarring. One of the most impressive and immersive drug crime film I have seen. There was no let up. All film long, I was on edge.Great dialogue. Great progression. Terrific performances from Liotta and Patric. Definitely showcased Liotta's range as a underrated legend. 4 out of 5
Sea of Love (1989) Film Review
Oh God, this had me grinning like a teenage girl. One of the best rom-coms (yes, I felt like it is one) I have ever watched, and I hate that it took me this long to find out about this. There are very few things I look for in films. 2 of them are: wellContinue reading "Sea of Love (1989) Film Review"
Contact (1997) Film Review
Maybe I watched it too late. Maybe I should've watched this way before Interstellar, Ad Astra, and Gravity, because this felt so uninspired and lazy.Great visuals, its just the plot had so much potential, but it was paced very 90's.The dialogues, especially the courtroom scene was so corny that Jodie Foster couldn't even deliver itContinue reading "Contact (1997) Film Review"
Insomnia (2002) Film Review
A great detective film from start to finish. As usual per Nolan, he knows a story as complex as this was something everyone has to experience, and he made the experience enjoyable. I do wish he did more of this, he was good at it. Nowadays, he focuses more on big films, with big budget,Continue reading "Insomnia (2002) Film Review"
Kiss the Girls (1997) Film Review
Very 90's approach to a detective crime noir drama. Morgan Freeman did his best. Its not him. Its the overall story. The side characters weren't convincing, in fact, they were corny. Very 90's. Not a bad casual watch though, but easily could've been a 90 minute flick. 2.5 out of 5
a cinephile
a person who is fond of the cinema. A status that no one is given, but earned. No one may have labeled me as such, but ever since I was young, I have always watched films. Phanton Town, Honey, We Shrunk the Kids, Rush Hour, Blue Streak; just some of the films I watched asContinue reading "a cinephile"
Heat (1995) Film Review
Amazing film. Amazing. Amazing. From start to finish. Pacino and De Niro masterclass. One of, if not the best crime thrillers in history. Ages well. Michael Mann handled both legendary actors well, while also letting them lose, because that's just what they do. All you can do is capture it, and that he did, andContinue reading "Heat (1995) Film Review"
The Silence of the Lambs (1991) Film Review
The story wouldn't have such a cultural impact if it wasn't for Anthony Hopkins. He worked his minutes like he was behind rent. Chilling acting using his eyes and his eerie voice. Without a doubt, the best performance of that year. No wonder he won the Oscar. Jodie Foster also carried her own weight. ItsContinue reading "The Silence of the Lambs (1991) Film Review"
