johanlefourbe posted a review of Vanilla Sky

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this flick and maybe I should re-watch it at some point. Anyway, I always had some mixed feelings about the damned thing. I mean, on one hand, it is one of the very few movies starring Tom Cruise which was slightly more risky than his usual feature” read more

An average movie

“I wasn’t really expecting much from this flick but since I have a weak spot for Ben Affleck and Sandra Bullock, I thought I might as well check it out. Well, to be honest, I didn’t care much for the damned thing. Seriously, even though I don’t mind a decent romantic-comedy from time to time, t” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Philomena

A good movie

“Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about this movie (it was even nominated for the Best Picture Academy Award in 2014), I thought I should check it out. Eventually, I thought it was a decent drama but I can’t say it really blew me away. I don’t know, maybe I have seen already too many ” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of The Circus (1928)

A classic

“Apparently, this movie was the last one Charles Chaplin made during the silent era and it is yet another flick I have seen many times when I was a kid. Indeed, I remember it very well. At some point, the greatest classics directed by Charles Chaplin were broadcast on one of the French channels and m” read more

An average movie

“By now, I have seen all the movies directed by Clint Eastwood and, out of all the movies he has directed during his prestigious career, it is easily the one I appreciated the least (yes, even the underwhelming ‘Blood Work’ was still better than this). It wouldn’t go as far as saying that it wa” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Forever Young

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been a while since I saw this flick. In fact, if I recall it correctly, I actually even saw it in the movie theater when it was released. Even though it might seem weird that a 12 year old boy would watch something like this, somehow, it still made sense, at least, to me. Indeed” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of The Fisher King

A good movie

“I already saw this movie but since it was ages ago, I thought I might as well check it out again. First of all, even though I consider Terry Gilliam one of the most interesting directors in the world, I have noticed that I have actually sometimes a hard time to really connect with his movies becaus” read more

An average movie

“I already saw this movie but since it was a while back, I thought I might as well check it out again. To be honest, I always had some mixed feelings about the damned thing. First of all, on one hand, it was actually a really preposterous concept. I mean, after Nelson almost didn't come back from the” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Regression

An average movie

“After 6 long years, Alejandro AmenĂĄbar was finally coming back with a new directing effort and even though it was barely seen and it didn't get much love when it was released, I was still really eager to check it out. Well, eventually, it turned out to be unfortunately a massive disappointment and ” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Fist of Legend

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this movie and maybe I should give it another chance at some point. In fact, I wonder how I actually ended up watching the damned thing but, if I recall it correctly, it was during the ‘FĂȘte du CinĂ©ma’. The ‘FĂȘte du CinĂ©ma’ is some kind” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Route Irish

An average movie

“Back in the 90's, when I was pretty much starting to discover the greatest treasures  in the motion picture history, Ken Loach was definitely one of my favorite directors but, even though by now I have been following him for about 20 years, I have to admit that it has been a while since he really i” read more

An average movie

“I wonder if this movie was the fist one I saw directed by Pedro Almodovar. At least, it was definitely the first I saw in the movie theater and I even saw it when it was released. To be honest, I was rather disappointed by the whole thing. I mean, back then, I wasn’t really familiar with this dire” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Bamboozled

A good movie

“When was the last time that Spike Lee actually had real critical hit? It must have been 10 years ago with ‘Inside Man’ and since then, he has been working mostly on some really obscure features that really didn’t get much love. It’s really too bad because I always had a weak spot for this di” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Heartbeats

A good movie

“The last time I saw my sister, she bought me a DVD-box with the complete work of Xavier Dolan so that's how I ended up watching his movies. With this 2nd directing effort, there was an interesting evolution from 'J'ai tuĂ© ma mĂšre', Nolan's directing debut, and it was definitely something more ambi” read more

A good movie

“Since I kept hearing some pretty good things about this movie, I was quite eager to check it out. Eventually, even though I did like it, I still had a hard time to connect with the damned thing. I mean, I really enjoyed the black-and-white cinematography, it was really neat and appropriate and, once” read more

An average movie

“My kids really wanted to see this movie (especially my step-son, as the first installment  was the 2nd movie we went to see together when he was just about 10 years old) and since I kept hearing some pretty good things about the damned thing, I was also quite eager to check it out. Eventually, even” read more

A good movie

“The last time I saw my sister, she bought me a DVD-box with the complete work of Xavier Dolan so that's how I ended up watching his movies. It was actually pretty neat because, even though I kept hearing some interesting things about the guy, I hadn't watched anything he had directed yet. Obviously,” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Notting Hill

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this movie and I should probably re-watch it at some point. Anyway, I think it must be one of my wife’s favorite romantic-comedies but, personally, I always had some mixed feelings towards the damned thing. I mean, I have to admit it, as a concep” read more

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this movie. Still, I remember fairly well when I saw the damned thing. Indeed, back then, it was one of the very last movies directed by Steven Spielberg that I still hadn’t watch yet at the time so I was really eager to check the damned thing. W” read more

An average movie

“Since this movie was the last one directed by Sofia Coppola I still needed to see, I was quite eager to check it out. Eventually, I was amazed about how underwhelming it was. Indeed, it is apparently some American tradition to have some kind of Christmas specials and Netflix thought they should rele” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Young & Beautiful

An average movie

“Even though I'm not a huge fan, since François Ozon is still a really interesting director, I was quite eager to check this movie. Well, like most of the movies from this director, it left me equally intrigued and disappointed. Indeed, the whole thing definitely had some potential but I thought he ” read more

A classic

“I already saw this movie but since it was ages ago and since it was available on Disney+, I was quite eager to check it out again. Well, I’m really glad I gave this movie a second chance because I was much more able to enjoy it the 2nd time around (In fact, I think I should watch it again in about” read more

An average movie

“I remember it very well when this movie came out, I even saw it in the movie theater. Back then, it was a huge critical success (it was even nominated for 4 Academy Awards winning one for the Best Score) and also an unexpected box-office hit (it was at the time the highest grossing film ever in the ” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Fortress

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been ages since I have seen this flick and maybe I should re-watch it at some point. Basically, this is a massive guilty pleasure of mine. Indeed, when I started to really watch movies compulsively, I was just about 12 years old and I was mostly focusing on action flicks, which ” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of From Hell

An average movie

“To be honest, it has been a while since I have seen this movie and maybe I should re-watch it at some point. I remember quite well, when it was released, there was a big outcry because it was so different than the actual comic-book written by Alan Moore. Well, in my case, when I saw the damned thing” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Four Rooms

An average movie

“Even though I have sometime a hard time with the last movies directed by Quentin Tarantino (with the notable exception of ‘The Hateful Eight’ which was just amazing), this anthology might still be his weakest effort so far. Basically, it is one of those quirky indie productions but it was just r” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Scary Movie 5

A bad movie

“Obviously, I had some very low expectations towards this movie and, indeed, it turned out to be pretty bad. Seriously, what were they thinking? Was anyone really asking for yet another installment for this already really lame franchise? I mean, I have to admit it, I actually have a weak spot for the” read more

An average movie

“Since I hadn't see this movie for quite some time, I thought I might as well give it a second chance. To be honest, I have to admit that it was slightly better than I remembered but it was still nothing really amazing and,  after all these years, I still wonder how this movie (and its sequel) becam” read more

johanlefourbe posted a review of Dry Cleaning

A very good movie

“Basically, it is another really obscure French movies that almost no one has seen on Listal. I don’t know if anyone made this comparison before but this movie actually reminded me of ‘Teorema’, one of the most fascinating movies I have ever seen. Indeed, both movies deal with an average middle” read more

An average movie

“From the 3 big horror movies that launched some major franchises in the 80’s (‘Halloween’, ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’, ‘Friday the 13th’), my favorite one was ‘Friday the 13th’. Maybe it was because I saw it first but I thought that this first installment was just quite spellbindi” read more
