“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a solid cast involved, I was really eager to check the damned thing. I was also rather curious to see what Paul Dano would do with his directorial debut. Well, at least, he definitely provided an impressive actin” read more
Listal's 100 Films To See Before You Die (2021) (100 movies items)
Note : I’m really glad I gave this movie a 2nd chance after all these years because I was much more able to appreciate it the 2nd time around. First of all, Pedro Almodovar is one of those directors that I have always admired but he never became a personal favorite of mine. Indeed, he is what you can call a real author who has created his own style and, therefore, he always got my respect but, honestly, I always had a hard time with his work and this movie was not an exception. Indeed, The 1st time I saw it, I was around 20 years old only and I didn’t feel much a connection with the damned thing. I still think it is a rather complex story, even seriously convoluted, but it is something to be expected from this director. What really touched me this time was the fact that it was focusing only on female characters and they were all quite fascinating to behold. The cast involved was also really strong. At the end of the day, this movie did develop the usual themes you can find in almost all Almodovar’s work as it focused on some rather messed-up and sometimes annoying women but, this time around, he managed to go even deeper than usual and the end-result was quite amazing.

“This movie was easily one of the most awaited movies to come out this year on Netflix so I was really eager to check it out, even if it didn’t receive some stellar reviews after all. Well, unfortunately, it wasn’t really good and, in my opinion, it did show once again how much Adam McKay’s rec” read more
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but there was a decent cast involved and I thought it could be something interesting to watch with my wife. Well, to be honest, I really struggled to care about the damned thing though. I mean, Emilia Clarke was not bad at all and I really did ap” read more
