“To be honest, I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was starring Daniel Radcliffe, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, I have noticed that this movie had been poorly received and, indeed, I would have to agree, it is definitely the weakest movie I have seen so ” read more
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it had been fairly well received and since it was starring Hayley Atwell, I thought I might as well check it out. By the way, what the hell happened to Atwell? She used to have such voluptuous curves but it seems that she went through s” read more
Notes: To be honest, the beginning was rather messy. Indeed, I don’t really understand why they started to show these police officers in their precinct. Then, they suddenly switched to a rather unclear robbery. Fortunately, after that, the movie finally did settle with a basic structure which was, at least, easier to follow. Indeed, you then had two parts. During the first part, you basically followed the main character running around in the streets trying to escape from the police and I think there was some surrealist quality about this 1st half. Indeed, they gave at the time no intertitles and it was visually pretty neat as well which I didn’t expect from such a vintage Ozu feature. The second part was also quite interesting because it completely flipped your expectations concerning this man but also concerning the guy chasing him. In this case, this humanistic approach was much more some classic Ozu but he was definitely the master in this genre, giving time and time such seemingly simple and yet complex human characters and this movie was no exception. Eventually, the material was a little bit slight though and it is no wonder that the running time was around 60 mins.

“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it was directed by Ozu and since it was on YouTube, I thought I might as well check it out. Not so long ago, I saw also ‘Tôkyô no kôrasu’ from the same director but, to be honest, it was actually rather disappointing. Fortunately” read more
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since there was a decent cast involved, I thought I might as well check it out. To be honest, even though I obviously heard about Brian Wilson, his huge talent and his tragic life, I have to admit that I have never been a huge fan of the Beac” read more
“I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but, since I have a weak spot for Abbie Cornish and since it was available on Netflix, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, I was actually surprised by how boring the damned thing turned out to be. Basically, it is a typica” read more
“Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about this film, I was quite eager to check it out. Eventually, even if I’m not a huge fan of ‘Black Panther’, without the success of this Marvel installment, it is doubtful that this movie would have ever been greenlighted. Anyway, I thought the da” read more
