A very original movie in the way it is presented and full of reflections, horror is present, but only in some elements and symbolisms, because this movie is much more about adolescence, questioning, discoveries and freedom, all in a very interesting way and with excellent performances from all the cast. This is an indie movie and it has its technical limitations, but they don't get in the way of the story, which is great.
A disturbing movie, extremely difficult because of its delicate subject matter. The performances are great, the photography and colors are very interesting, the story starts off very well, but gradually loses its way until it really loses everything, many holes in the script and lazy justifications, often exaggerated and unreflective, which ends up taking the film down vague and uninteresting paths.
I was curious about this story. It's terrifying how the rigors of fulfilling a mission can lead to alienation, to the point of not having a sense of observation or believing the warnings he received. Onoda lives in his own reality in the name of a mission, where he can never surrender, he lives in a war that no longer exists, he has never faced or heard any of the sounds of war.
The movie overdoes it in being long and slow, it has great performances and tries to show something poetic, like resilience and heroism, but it just made me feel sorry for him.
An indie werewolf movie that has a good story, but gets lost in the development leaving some holes in the script, and also has some long scenes with no content. The make-up looks good, the effects are all manual, some are good, others not so much, the acting is reasonable and the hand-held filming gives a feeling of closeness. Better editing and scripting would have made the movie more interesting.
A very cool movie to watch, full of action scenes. The story has twists and turns and exaggerations, due to the emphasis on the stunt profession, and in this context, it's very cool and different. There are a few other scenes that make no sense and there are some conveniences, but as the movie is very dynamic this doesn't hinder the experience and everything ends up being very interesting and fun.
The historical context of the naval battle is great, the story takes a while to get going, it's all a bit slow at first, but once it gets going it gets much better. The battle scenes are stunning, the effects, the environment, the costumes, the whole look of the movie is great. All the dynamics of the tactics, as well as the development of the battles are incredible.
What an agonizing movie, it's an anxious pace from start to finish, it's disturbing and tense. The performances are awesome, the character dynamics drive the story very well, the text is great, as is the story itself, very original. The direction enhanced the striking scenes, with expressions and cameras at a frenetic pace following everything closely, a truly perfect movie.
The movie has a good story that captures attention through curiosity, because it's interesting to know how far it can go, but because of this expectation, I found it a little restrained, and there are also some exaggerations in the acting, but overall it's a good movie, made more interesting by the dynamics of the main character. The development of emotions and thoughts is highly valued, and these are the highlights.
This is the situation where there is a reasonable idea, nothing original, but it could be put to better use, but it doesn't manage to. The movie has a good starting point, but the story is very poorly developed and the performances are weak and exaggerated, unconvincing. In some scenes, the dialog is empty and adds nothing to the story. This is a movie that fails to captivate.
The story is reasonable, nothing surprising, the highlights are the great scenes of the game, with incredible takes and the performances that are great and drive everything, I thought the choice to emphasize expressions and gestures was great, it made all the difference. On the technical side, I found some of the editing strange, some abrupt cuts made the movie slow to engage, the soundtrack was one of the most out of place I've ever seen, the songs had nothing to do with the scenes, at times they were louder than the lines, this hindered the experience of the movie.
The movie starts off very interestingly, with a bizarre story that gets more and more bizarre, it's even distressing and disturbing in some parts, but there are problems with the editing, many scenes sound out of place in the movie, as well as several anticlimactic situations, trying to be "funny" where it makes no sense. Some excessively caricatured performances don't help to improve the story either.
Pure nostalgia and fun, a very specific movie, made for fans of martial arts movies from the 80s and 90s, part of the cast and production team made some of them, which makes it evident the passion with which the movie was made. The fight scenes are brilliant and the actors are incredible in their choreography, the story is simple and straightforward, totally driven by nostalgia and the aesthetics are wonderful, it really feels like I'm watching a lost movie from that era, awakening the teenage feeling again.
A great idea, a promising, complex story, mostly narrated by the protagonists and which could have incredible moments, but the execution ends up not yielding a good result. The biggest problem is the text, which lacks fluidity, is confusing and incoherent, the ideas are thrown around randomly, the performances are average and don't manage to attract enough attention, all of which makes the movie boring.
The story is very good, mixing elements of politics, irony and terror, all done in a simple, straightforward way, with a good text and twists. The movie doesn't go too far with camera movements or expressions, nor does it delve too deeply into the characters, but it has great make-up and practical effects, leaving a more rustic atmosphere, generating tension and attracting a lot of attention.
It's an introspective film that uses its characters' expressions, feelings, poetry and lines from Anton Chekhov's play Uncle Vanya. The rehearsals for this play take up a large part of the movie and are very interesting within the dynamics of the story. Because of this characteristic, the film ends up being long, perhaps a little longer than it should be, but it is a movie with extensive scenes and offers an experience of much reflection and observation.
The movie has a few exaggerations, some nonsensical and even predictable solutions, but it also has moments that amuse, some bizarre scenes and in general it holds your attention from start to finish. The performances and the character dynamics are good, the ambience and the colors give the film a certain charm, the story is simple and doesn't bring anything new, but it does its job of entertaining.
Too tense, a raw, visceral movie, totally focused on the development of the characters, and this is where everything gets better, the performances are great, very real, the story is great, it has a script that works well. The direction focused on striking, close-up scenes, emphasizing expressions and lines that are very good. Towards the end, the story seemed to speed up a little, but that doesn't detract from the brilliance of this great movie.
The beginning is very intriguing, a minimalist science fiction thriller, practically all made up of stories and in a single environment, this could be something very good and different, but the movie doesn't manage to develop well, at the moment when it could become more complex, interesting and have some surprises, it ended up opting for simple and even too predictable paths, it lacked more script work and better paths.
Adam Sandler's best acting work, here he proves to be amazing, as does the entire cast, where everyone delivers great scenes, because the movie focuses a lot on character development, but in addition, the story is very good, a very well developed script and the direction left everything with a frantic, anxious and very tense pace. Definitely a masterpiece.
A courtroom movie, but the proposed reflection goes much further. The story is strong, mostly narrated by the characters in the courtroom. The movie has a slower, almost documentary pace, as if we were watching the trial. The dialogues are excellent and leave the film with many layers of thought and complexity.
Enchanting, wonderful, stunning. The aesthetics, the photography, the images, everything here is beautiful, the children's performances are great, it's impossible not to get caught up in the movie. The story is very cool, simple and very efficient in its development, it reminded me a lot of the adventure movies of the 80s with children. A masterpiece that leaves a sparkle in your eyes from start to finish.
Beautiful atmosphere and a great soundtrack drive the movie's story, which is very interesting. Some of the paths taken sound convenient and a little forced. Overall, the movie is very gripping from start to finish, with a nice feeling of strangeness and curiosity that remains throughout.
A good action movie. Nothing here is very original, there are many clichés, it's even predictable, but it has a great story development and is super dynamic, something is happening all the time, the character has charisma and manages to hold your attention.
Extremely dense and agonizing, it combines a disturbing story with a stunning desert ambience.
The movie develops in an unpredictable way, always keeping the atmosphere anxious and dark. The performances are excellent, making everything more realistic, more terrifying. An incredible movie.
A movie with stunning photography, beautiful images that match the story, which is great, very intriguing and as beautiful as poetry.
The pace of the movie is slower, contemplative, it could be a little more dynamic in some parts, but that's not a problem. The movie is well worth watching with attention and admiration.
At the beginning, the movie is intriguing, but as it develops, I felt it lacked depth and, above all, new elements; everything here seems a bit recycled from other movies of the same style. The performances are good, but nothing that stands out, there's a lack of character development. Most of the time the movie doesn't take many risks, it seems a bit uninspired.
The movie that starts off slower, but always leaves a feeling of strangeness in the air. As the story develops, there are many unpredictable and interesting twists and turns. The movie could have a more fluid dynamic, it takes a while to reach its climax, but it's worth seeing through to the end.
A great found footage movie, although this one doesn't have the raw aesthetic, as the camera has a very clean, filtered image and more stable framing.
The story is very good, it's not predictable, there are some great twists and some scares throughout, and the performances also stand out, making everything more engaging.
The story starts out interesting, but it gets much worse as it goes on. There are many facts, many completely different paths and many twists and turns, but nothing is well connected, there are so many paths that at the end you can hardly remember the beginning. The make-up and effects are also very average, nothing here generates much emotion.
An action movie with a good cast, but with a very generic story, despite having some good moments, the movie doesn't have any great attractions that hold your attention, it lacks different elements and a better developed script, everything here is very predictable.
