Singin' in the Rain

1952

★★★★★ Liked 17

words fail to express how much I love this film.

This musical is surely the best of its kind. The costumes with vibrant colors and the choreography is simply magnificent, filmed almost continuously in long takes, which is sometimes remarkable. Every song and dance number in this film is memorable: whether it's the elocution exercise with Cosmo and Lockwood, Cosmo Brown's stunning performance in "Make‘Em Laugh", which deserved an Oscar for this,the unforgettable scene bringing together the three protagonists in…

Gladiator

This film left me speechless. I'm immensely grateful to have had the opportunity to see it again on the big screen, and to be able to appreciate it fully, at its true worth. Gladiator is not just a film, it's a visual experience of rare intensity.

I truly understand the love people have for this film. It's so emotionally charged. There were so many moments where I felt tears well up. What's beautiful is…

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning

2025

★★★★ 12

Frankly, in three hours, I've seen the guy nearly die in every possible way. 

Seriously, though, I'd watched the whole saga together just before, and I can say it was more than worth it. This one... DAMN. I don't know if it's the big screen effect or what, but this latest opus far sures the previous ones in my eyes.
The action scenes are relentless, and the quality is insane. Whether in the air, underwater or on the ground, every…
