“Even though this movie didn’t get much love when it was released, since I’m a huge fan of the Dardenne Brothers’s work, I was really eager to check it out. Well, at first, I was actually positively surprised by the damned thing. Indeed, it was a really neat mix between a standard thriller an” read more
Notes: Well, even though it was indeed a decent watch, to be honest, I didn't really connect with this movie, I'm afraid. Basically, the oddest thing about this movie is how it keeps switching between the rather cheesy dance scenes (which were pretty cool, I have to admit it, at least, if you like this kind of dance) and some realistic dark moments which were more compelling to watch, at least, for me. It seems that the makers were not able to make up their minds between something rather fluffy to appeal to the mainstream audience and something more dramatic to make sure that they were taken seriously. Or maybe I'm completely mistaken and it was done on purpose in order to accurately represent the life of the average teenager. Indeed, at the end of the day, their lifestyle is filled up with some shallow glamorous fantasy but their lives have also some genuine drama in it.
“Since this movie was the last part of Edgar Wright’s Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, of course, I was really eager to check it out. In fact, even though ‘Shaun of the Dead’ and ‘Hot Fuzz’ immediately became some cult-classics, this movie didn’t actually make much waves, maybe because ” read more

“Since this movie was rather well received and since I have a weak spot for Helen Mirren and Ryan Reynolds, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, to be honest, even though it turned out to be a decent watch, it didn’t really blow me away though. First of all, I actually had a hard time with Ryan” read more
Notes: This was David Lynch's full length feature directing debut and it took him about 5 years to finish it with not much of a financial backing. Personally, this movie had a massive impact on me and it has always been a major influence on my movie watching ever since. The first time I saw it, it happened to be in the movie theater, I was about 15 or 16 years old and, at the time, I was completely blown away by the whole thing. Indeed, I had never seen anything similar in my life and I thought I actually experienced a nightmare while I was actually wide awake. Back in those days, it became right away one of my favorite movies and it took me many years to finally re-watch it. Eventually, the second time around (many many years later), I was able to set aside the overwhelming power of the whole thing and I noticed that the pacing was actually rather sluggish so I did lower my rating but it is and remains an impressive piece of experimental film making.
