M3GAN (2022)
6/10
Interesting to watch
19 February 2023
I was really looking forward to this movie and wanted to see it as soon as possible. Yes, it's not perfect, but I really enjoyed watching it, even though the movie itself has its flaws.

It all starts with the fact that Cady's parents die in the accident. Her single aunt Gemma becomes her foster parent. Gemma creates a doll called M3GAN and she gives the doll to Cady. However, M3GAN and Cady become friends and then the truth is revealed that M3GAN is not just a simple doll.

What I liked about this story is that it wasn't an ordinary and boring movie about a possessed doll, and there are a lot of movies like that, so I think that the idea of this movie is really unique. Some of the plot decisions were questionable as they felt unfinished in some places, so this was probably the film's weak point.

In conclusion, the movie is neither very good nor very bad, so I think that those who like movies of this genre will also like this one.

It has a few flaws
13 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
The first part of this movie was very good, so I expected "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" to be a very good movie as well. And this movie is good, but if you had to compare the first and second part, it would be really difficult to do so, because both parts are very different, have different stories and both are interesting in their own way.

As soon as I started watching this movie, I thought that this movie is really special, because the farewell to the dead king was really touching and impressive, so I immediately knew that the story is going to be interesting and unique.

So the second part tells how people fight to protect the kingdom of Wakanda after King T'Challa's death. I really liked that this time it was decided to portray the strength and courage of women in the film. I was very impressed with Angela Bassett and her performance as Queen Ramona, a very strong and convincing performance.

It was interesting to watch the history and how things changed. The story about the underwater nation of Talokan and how they were able to breathe underwater thanks to that beautiful plant, but were unable to live above ground was very interesting, so I really liked it, because it was something completely new and unexpected.

Sound and visual effects, costume design simply amaze with their uniqueness. The plot of the film itself is good, but there were some weak points and mistakes that needed more work and improvement.

Although this movie is completely different from the first part and has a few flaws, I will definitely not deny that the film was still engaging and interesting, so I think that if you liked the first part, it is worth watching the second part as well.

Barbarian (2022)
7/10
Shocking
10 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I can truly say that this is one of the most unique horror films out there. I have seen many of them, but this one is completely different. It's been a while since I watched this movie, but I can't forget it because it was shocking.

So the film tells the story of a woman who, staying at an Airbnb, discovers that the house she has rented has a secret tunnel that leads to an unknown destination. Later we see another story, about a man who owns that house and he doesn't even know about any secret tunnel, to know the layout of the house he also goes to that tunnel. And then the paths of both characters cross and they face the secrets and horrors that lie within this house.

The movie is definitely worth watching. This is something completely new, something that hasn't happened before. A unique story, terrifying scenes, unpredictable plot - that's what a horror movie needs.

Impactful
10 February 2023
I didn't know how to write all the thoughts and feelings this movie made me feel. I also thought for a long time whether it is really worth writing everything, because the whole review will not be about the movie, but about the theme of this movie. I don't want to talk about this movie from a technical point of view, because I don't think it's the most important thing in this case. Yes, I think the movie is really good, but that's probably because I found so many similarities in it and I realized that I wasn't the only one who suffered from this kind of relationship. In short, the film is about a young woman trapped in an abusive relationship, and I think this is a very important topic to talk about, because an abusive relationship is very traumatic for people and their lives. There are many people in this world who are now in toxic relationships, and there are also many people who have been in this type of relationship before.

A very important point is that the film is very realistic. Of course, each person's case is different, but the whole point is abusive relationships and how being in them affects people's inner world and mental health. People feel trapped, like they have no other choice, they think that their partner is treating them badly out of love. For such people, it seems that this is how love should be, after all, just like in the movie, Simon said to Alice: "It's you and me. It's just us." Being in such a relationship is like losing yourself, at least in my opinion, the motif of the missing girl in the film shows exactly that. At that time you are absolutely addicted, if you go somewhere you feel guilty for not being with a partner, if you are having fun you feel guilty again for not being with a partner. When the partners of an abusive relationship are already completely attached to their victim, it becomes more and more difficult to escape from such a relationship.

But that's not the case, there is a way out of all these horrible things, whoever is reading this right now and is in a relationship like this, there is a way out. There will always be people around you in difficult times who really love and want to help. In the case of the film, it was Alice's friends who helped her escape from an abusive relationship. Although at first it seems that no one understands you, that everyone else is your enemy, but the truth is completely different.

Alice says: "I know this sounds crazy, but sometimes it feels like he can read my mind" and "There's nowhere left that I can actually be alone." And this is absolutely true, because people in such relationships lose themselves, forget what they really are, they can't even think logically anymore. Also, hair pulling is a very real experience caused by a very high level of stress. In fact, the movie looked so familiar that it was hard to watch.

I really highly recommend this movie because it does an excellent job of revealing the main idea and raising a very important issue. Some viewers may find it difficult to watch, but the film is definitely worth watching.

The power of strong women
7 February 2023
It's worth saying that the movie doesn't follow the true story and I think we can definitely agree on that. But the film itself is actually good. The film tells the story of Agojie, the all-female group of warriors who protected the African Kingdom of Dahomey.

It's a special story about combativeness, bravery, endurance, strength, sacrifice and I think that's the most important thing about this movie. I really liked that this story portrays extremely strong women who are determined to go and fight to the end.

Viola Davis did a great job in her role and shined once again. The other actors are also well chosen and their performances are convincing. I would also really like to praise the costume design and fighting scenes, which are authentic and realistic. Sound effects are also very good.

Yes, this movie has a few flaws, but they don't detract from its goodness, so I think you will definitely not regret watching this movie.

Absolutely stupid
6 February 2023
I really regret watching this movie, because it is a complete waste of time. I didn't expect much from this film, but I certainly didn't think it would be this bad. It doesn't even look like a comedy, because there wasn't a single funny moment. It's just another stupid movie that makes no sense and tells a story about nothing. Also, this is completely dull and boring, I spent most of the time waiting for it to finally end.

Everything about this movie is bad. The script, terrible and unconvincing acting, all the effects are bad and unrealistic. Although, the film is also supposed to be an action film, however, that action is completely absent. After watching this movie, it seems that it was created just to create something - it does not matter that it will be boring, pointless and stupid.

In conclusion, this is a pathetic movie and I really don't recommend wasting your time on it, because it's not worth it at all.

Elvis (2022)
9/10
Can't Help Falling in Love
5 February 2023
It is worth admitting that the film is really memorable. Unfortunately, I didn't know much about Elvis Presley's biography before watching the movie, but the movie surprised me, because it was very interesting.

The film tells the story of the life of American music icon Elvis Presley, from his childhood to becoming a rock and movie star. It is also worth mentioning that the technical side of the film, like screenplay, acting, soundtrack, costume design, cinematography are a very important. Austin Butler did a great job and gave a very convincing performance.

After watching this movie, I fell even more in love with the songs "Love Me Tender", "Can't Help Falling in Love" and "Unchained Melody".

I think that all these things led to the fact that the film is really interesting and it is impossible to take your eyes off it.

Tár (2022)
8/10
Strong
5 February 2023
I have been waiting for this movie for a long time. This is a really interesting and memorable film.

The film shows the downfall of the fictional composer and conductor Lydia Tár. The film itself is very good and impactful. Things like screenplay, acting, soundtrack are very strong, so when you watch this, you can immediately understand that it is a high quality movie.

Cate Blanchett is unique as always. Her acting and the roles she has played are impressive. She is the only actress who could play Lydia Tár so well.

Although the film lasts for a long time, but this is the film that is worth seeing.

Special
3 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Not just one of the best movies of the year, but one of the best movies of all time. The fact that it is nominated for 11 Oscars is not surprising at all and I really think this movie will go in the history of cinema as one of the best, because it really is. The film is very powerful and impactful. After watching, you want to sit down and think again, what if nothing really matters in the end? But it is very good that the end of the film answers this question, that everything matters and any change affects the fate of people in different universes, but the most important thing is that there is love and joy in everyday life that is worth living for.

The film evokes a lot of emotions and makes you think about it a lot. Watching the whole movie is like feeling all the emotions - from laughter to tears, but those moments that make you cry are very effective. For example, Evelyn tells her daughter, "Maybe it's like you said. Maybe there is something out there, some new discovery that will make us feel even smaller. Something that explains why you still went looking for me through all of this noise and why no matter what, I still want to be here with you. I will always, always, want to be here with you." Joy tells, "Here, all we get are a few specks of time where any of this actually makes any sense." But Evelyn refuses to let go of her daughter and says, "Then I will cherish these few specks of time." And it was after this moment that I couldn't stop crying.

Actually, a lot can be written about this movie, but no words will describe it, because it is not only a movie, but it is like an experience that will remain in the memory for a very long time. So if you haven't seen this film yet and are wondering if it's worth watching, trust me, it's worth every minute you spend watching it.

Very deep
3 February 2023
This is one of the best and most beautiful movies that you can't stop thinking about after watching it. Very impactful and memorable. This film has already become a cinema classic.

Love is one of the most beautiful things in this world, but this movie portrays platonic and sincere love, love that has no boundaries, love that knocks down the legs and strikes unexpectedly like lightning and love, which we all look for and hope to find at least once in our lives

It is very sad, but the film tells a story about two people, about two close souls who understand that they are meant for each other, but cannot be together, because their worlds are completely different.

The film evokes many different emotions and probably everyone would discover something personal and important in it. The film is truly remarkable and a must see.

Giving hope
28 January 2023
Sometimes there are films that are difficult to assign to a certain category, because it is enough to watch them and then you understand that it is just different and this film is exactly like that. And by different, I mean different in a good way.

The film tells the story of a woman who won the lottery, but spent all the money on alcohol, so now she doesn't even have a place to live, but she tries to rebuild her life. The film shows her difficult path, problems and how she deals with everything, how she tries to start over, stop drinking alcohol and of course that journey is hard.

The film is really very affecting and causes many different emotions. It is important to mention that many problems arise in the film - the relationship between parents and children, the topic of alcoholism.

Although the topics discussed are serious, the film still spreads hope and helps you to understand, that even at the bottom of your life, you can find ways to stand up and there will be people who want to help. And then everything will only get better.

EO (2022)
7/10
Impactful
23 January 2023
The film tells a story of the world, which is shown through the eyes of a donkey. It is worth admitting that the film is very strong and affecting. Although, there is almost no talking in the film, but everything is still clear. The whole mood is created by visual effects, sound effects and, of course, donkey emotions.

In this film, the most important thing is the donkey and his experiences, emotions like sadness and fear. In fact, the strength of this film is the emotional background, which does not require any dialogues or monologues, and is focused on the world of the animal and the world around.

Unfortunately, after watching the movie, you get the feeling that in reality, sometimes a person can act like an animal and not have any humanity in him, and the animal has not done anything bad to this world, but it is treated cruelly. The film is very impactful and stays in the mind for a very long time.

Babylon (I) (2022)
8/10
Unique
22 January 2023
I was really looking forward to this movie and wanted to see it. The film tells a story about early Hollywood and about people's dreams of being in it, how hard it was to survive in it and how much effort was needed to change and improve along with the advancing film technologies.

I think the actors are very well chosen and played their roles well. Margot Robbie shines like a real star once again. The self-confidence of her character Nellie LaRoy is fascinating and disarming from the beginning of the film.

Although the film lasts for more than 3 hours, it doesn't seem like it, because it has so many layers and everything changes as fast as it did in Hollywood at that time. The film itself can be called an experience. The party scenes are very impactful and make you want to be a part of them. This movie is definitely worth your attention, because you will not only watch it, but also feel it with all your heart.

Nothing special
14 January 2023
Warning: Spoilers
I waited for this movie for a very long time, but the film did not deserve the wait and hope that it will be another masterpiece. A lot of people will probably disagree with me, because the movie is rated really high, but I don't think it's a well done piece. After the wonderful 'Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri', I thought this movie would be just as good, but I am very disappointed.

'Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri' was bright, real, which leaves a very big impression, which will not be forgotten for a very long time, that's why I thought that this director would definitely make such an impactful film again.

'The Banshees of Inisherin' tells the story of two friends who became angry with each other for very vague reasons and are now no longer friends, but the film does not give a good reason for this anger. The film doesn't catch your interest and the plot is also not surprising as it is not a strong story.

All in all, I was very disappointed with this movie, but maybe it was because I expected too much from it, but I didn't see what I wanted to see.

The Fabelmans (2022)
9/10
Another great Steven Spielberg movie
14 January 2023
The film tells the story of the Fabelmans family and shows their experiences in life very vividly. It is truly amazing to see a person pursue their goals and dreams from childhood. A mother's support for her child is also very strong. Sammy looks at the world through the lens of a camera, but this way of looking increasingly reveals details that may not be visible to the naked eye. Although, the film is quite long, the time does not take long when watching, very quickly you can feel the experiences, problems, moods of the main characters and you feel like you identify with their family. Michelle Williams shines once again and gives a great performance, and it's worth mentioning the wonderful script, and what is more, the soundtrack is excellent. All in all, the movie is definitely worth watching and worth your time.

This is a masterpiece!
13 January 2023
This is a movie that leaves behind a very warm feeling in my heart that lasts for a very long time. The whole plot is about true love - inexplicable, different, the kind of love that, if you haven't experienced it, you won't understand, about love that is unexpected like a passing comet in the sky, about love that appears only once in a lifetime. It doesn't matter what different worlds we may live in, but that true and only love will exist forever. The movie is so affecting that you can't take your eyes off it, and sometimes tears start falling, just because of how this movie portrays the love that everyone so longs for. The end of the film reveals all this. Perhaps this love is inappropriate in this world, but it can and must exist in the different world. All in all, the best movie I've seen and it left so many feelings to think of.

Blue Jasmine (2013)
10/10
One of the best movies ever made!
9 April 2022
I remember when I first watched this movie and since then it has become one of the best movies for me. I've watched a lot of films with Cate Blanchett, but after this one, she impressed me even more and I think that will never change. No matter how many movies I watch, I usually compare them to this one, but I didn't like a single, the way I liked this one. Acting and script are amazing. It's hard to describe, but this film so impactful and so powerful that there are no words left to say. So if you haven't seen this film yet and are wondering if it's worth watching, trust me, it's worth every minute you spend watching it.
