The Speech (2020)

i laughed

[7/10 · 30 October 2021]

I had a good time watching this simple comedy in the form of unsaid and criticism of social conventions. I laughed well. I would recommend it. Good one.

The Stronghold (2020)

Looks like a dystopian future.

[8/10 · 25 October 2021]

Good actors and a good staging make this "North Bac" a success for my taste, well paced and powerful action scenes comparable to American films. Regarding the political subtitle, I found that not very credible and exaggerated, but we can not have everything, better remember it's only a movie.

Un linceul n'a pas de poches (1974)

A good Mocky's movie

[7/10 · 24 October 2021]

It made me happy to see this Mocky 70s film adapted from an American short story with its plethora of actors and its subject dealing with corruption. A good irreverent film like its director.

Titane (2021)

Cold as Titane

[5/10 · 23 October 2021]

As much as I loved Julia Ducournau's debut film with its gothic musical themes and progressive script, this film was a painful sight to watch. I find the characters lacking in development and that leads to empathy and identification in these seemingly free and brutal scenes without ever finding any deep justifications.

Technically successful and brilliantly performed despite everything, "Titane" lacks flavor for my taste.

Candyman (2021)

nice paper animations, but nothing to do with the original at any level, except on the plot..

[5/10 · 12 October 2021]

This remake of Candyman is actually more of a sequel and variation on the crochet man theme.

For having liked the original I found this opus frankly disappointing, for lack of intensity, the original musical theme and any Gothic atmosphere. Still, this film contains pretty scenes of animations.

Playlist (2021)

fine

[7/10 · 13 September 2021]

This first feature film by Nine Antico can be watched. A slice of the life of a thirty-something seeking her marks in her professional and sentimental life. I did not understand the point of the film being in digital black and white lacking in contrast and not adding much to the story or to the aesthetic, apart from that nothing to complain about.

Meander (2020)

A "cube", "Saw", "The descent" french mix.

[7/10 · 31 August 2021]

It's always nice to see a genre film made in France as they are rare, well played and rather successful in addition. After "Hostile" Mathieu Turi offers us a claustrophobic closed doors having made me think of a mixture of "Cube", "Saw" and "The descent". The finale leaves me skeptical and the whole did not transcend me, but I welcome the exercise and that France produces more projects of this type.

No Man of God (2021)

well done, but I prefer the Mind Hunter tv show

[8/10 · 30 August 2021]

This film resuming the minutes of the interviews between Ted Bundy and Bill Hagmaier being a pioneer of profiling is well interpreted and directed. Having seen David Fincher's series on the same subject "Mind Hunter" I admit to having preferred the series, but the film is still qualitative and gives a human aspect to the serial killer who instead of being a monster would only be 'a man who has let his murderous impulses be expressed, with an absence of empathy and guilt, which can be disturbing.

Vacation Friends (2021)

a good surprise

[7/10 · 29 August 2021]

I had a good time watching this comedy in which a couple a little stuck meets a sassy couple who will teach them to let themselves float and transform their existence for the worse but especially the better.

All Hands on Deck (2020)

simple and fresh

[7/10 · 28 August 2021]

A holiday movie that can be watched with sympathetic actors, plausible situations and dialogues that seem spontaneous. A simple moment to spend like a week's camping holiday.

The Last Mercenary (2021)

A nice jcvd shake and french humor

[7/10 · 1 August 2021]

An entertaining Jcvd mxed with other comic actors like Djimo; A fairly simple plot and not-so-crazy fights, but a mix of action and humor that hits the mark.

No Sudden Move (2021)

good one

[7/10 · 23 July 2021]

Nice detective thriller set in the 50s, a decent staging and a pleasant film.

Mope (2019)

creepy and retro

[6/10 · 22 July 2021]

An improbable boogie night cheap and grotesque version adapted from a real news item. Not too badly screwed up overall, despite a film with a strange premise, you can watch it.

Wrath of Man (2021)

it's ok

[6/10 · 19 July 2021]

Action, a storyline that holds together, is entertaining, nothing special on the horizon, can be a bit slow to get going.

Under the Stars of Paris (2020)

under the bridges

[6/10 · 17 June 2021]

This story of a homeless woman helping a young migrant child to find her mother about to be deported ultimately touched me after a beginning whose scriptwriting strings disturbed me in their recovery from misery to make a kind of fable. Poetic.

Se upp för Jönssonligan (2020)

intriguing feel good movie

[8/10 · 12 June 2021]

It is in a half childish half crazy universe that benevolent thugs with their crazy methods seek to seize their loot in this sympathetic and original Swedish film.

Another Round (2020)

To drink or not to drink

[8/10 · 12 June 2021]

This Vinterberg comedy is very nice and touching, well interpreted and rhythmic, I had a great time.

French Exit (2020)

Good movie

[8/10 · 6 June 2021]

Well interpreted, touching and funny, dialogues and a closed door that makes you think of a play. Friendly.

The Seventh Day (I) (2021)

the exorcist trainig day like

[6/10 · 6 June 2021]

I thought it sounded like a TV series about some kind of vatican phantom sos specializing in exorcism.

It's entertaining but nothing more.

The Crossing (2020)

darkside of norway during World War 2

[7/10 · 5 June 2021]

Nice film on the dark side of Norway during the second world war, in which we follow 4 children trying to reach Sweden and escape the Nazis. Despite the harsh subject, the film remains light.

Sky High (2020)

Another hustler movie spanish version

[7/10 · 3 June 2021]

A film that lets you watch, a story of robbers and mafia in Madrid sauce, it works.

Son of the South (2020)

Obvious rights had to manifest

[8/10 · 30 May 2021]

A sympathetic biopic about a son of a repentant Klux Klux Klan member who participated in the 1961 social movements for the abolition of segregation in the United States.

The Reckoning (2020)

far from essential

[5/10 · 29 May 2021]

An average achievement worthy of a 90s TV series in the service of a story of a woman accused of being a witch even though her mother had been burned and her husband was found hanged ... inquisitors, an average film.

The Big Ugly (2020)

it goes

[6/10 · 28 May 2021]

A good action drama with notable actors which lets itself follow, about a story of revenge under the bottom of scheming for oil.

The Mitchells vs. the Machines (2021)

a good moment

[6/10 · 28 May 2021]

Entertaining sci-fi family animated film on the theme of Ai and machines which are taking up more and more space in our daily lives.
