Silver Linings (2012) – David O. Russell
[25-WR] Romantic comedy that does not punish with shame the morning after. Featuring candid performances that abstract away complicated emotions everybody knows but fail to articulate. [25-WR]
👍 👍 👍 👍
21 Grams (2003) – Alejandro G. Iñárritu
[25-WR] 21 years ago, a shaky trip to interpersonal traumata. A sour truck-load of acting vehicles working their solid ground muddy into the death depths. [25-WR]
Moby Dick (1956) – John Huston
[25-WR] Toned-down, trippy-colored salty-candy trip about classic revenge and honorable madness. A well-manouvered, savagely hunted-down condensation of a source material “mastodon”. [25-WR]
Cabaret (1972) – Bob Fosse
[25-WR] Singing-dancing heavy downer light-show sharply staged around a three-legged relationship with sex, booze and blood outspoken with clear-minded, subtly astute dialogue. [25-WR]
Joker (2019) – Todd Phillips
[25-WR] Entrancing eye-mouth opener commercial film, widely deep cleaning it´s tired subject matter into something wilder stunning the soul free for a burning new world. [25-WR]
Snowden (2016) – Oliver Stone
[25-WR] Oliver Stone-light, hyperactive non-action film that acts a greasy hook with a morally firm intent to blow it’s own bells and whistles away. [25-WR]
Poor Things (2023) – Yorgos Lanthimos
[25-WR] Fish-eyed, piss-European trip that´s mind-veneering even for the hardest of avant-garde-st getting bagged up drowned in the funny tasting river. [25-WR]
Thirteen (2003) – Catherine Hardwicke
[25-WR] Lucky number for derailment palming the air around the the missing family-cell walls while choking her own soul not to drown back into nothingness. [25-WR]
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny (2023) – James Mangold
[25-WR] Great for what it is: a moving-train jump into ageless redemption from the shards of bad casting trampling all over their own crystal skulls. [25-WR]
Empire Records (1995) – Allan Moyle
[25-WR] Simple day in the life of a magical place in time. Edgy mannerisms show how ev‘ryday worries can vanish via multiple music video stylistic shenanigans. [25-WR]
