“that's what love is, my dear: a harmless mental illness."

the twinkle in tatyana samoylova's eye and the disorienting camera movements come together to make a beautiful, yet heartbreaking film about the effects of war. beautiful. pain. mostly pain.

true soulmates don’t always come in romantic forms

an animated robot making me feel how wonderful motherhood is, ok that’s something i didn’t think would happen

pelit sama diri sendiri karna harus membiayai orang lain👊

istanbul. searching for family. walking. eating. dancing.. Finding yourself?!

ms. lia yearns for her niece, her past, her younger self; achi searches for family and ; evrim wants for acceptance and someone who will take her to breakfast in the morning; tekla, we can imagine, sought refuge. and so often we see these rejected, modified, or consoled. in the end it is this community in istanbul, one filled with joy, friendship, camaraderie, sadness, and yes, yearning, that welcomes lia and achi in and says “yes, we hear your hurt. we share it too. but please, share in our joy too. and we will try our best to help you.” after all, were they not all after the same thing? a gorgeous, soft film with a rich interlay of language and music. i loved it.

it has some great visual moments but left me feeling a bit disappointed overall. the movie never really slows down to develop its story or characters properly. instead, it rushes through key points, especially during the final fight, which is supposed to be full of emotion and intensity. Instead of feeling like a powerful vengeful showdown, it comes across with zero emotional impact.

Rasoulof really became a target of a corrupt authoritarian government, got exiled from his home country, became a literal public enemy, got arrested multiple times, and still made one of the best movies of the year. damn!

i usually enjoy a slow, meditative movie about love, lust and loneliness. where the city bleeds into its people and their story, but this felt like a chore. i couldn’t really connect to any of the characters. the story had its hearty moments, and the cinematography had its soulful moments - but nothing too great that will stick with me. or maybe I’m just disappointed that I misread the synopsis and thought this was a queer film… and maybe that would’ve been better.

DAMN THIS MOVIE. uh, i loved the shared experience of crying with everyone else in the theater.

ladies and gents! cinema is alive and well!

the substance. It’s devastating to see. It’s loud, gross and cruel, with a maximalist visual style and painfully on the nose commentary. 

this is the type of film that leaves me in disbelief simply by just existing, it just so helps it’s a truly one of a kind experience. I crave this type of ride from a film, and this delivered in ways i didn’t see coming.

don’t enjoy having a cynical take on this clearly beautiful story but i just found it all a bit cloying. it is a nice watch and the sentiment alone is enough to make it pleasant, but did not enjoy how it was directed or stylised and don’t think the monologuing helped much of the character work. add this one to the list of movies that I wish were documentaries instead

Ya Tu Racket También!

one of the best on screen examples of complex trauma that i’ve seen. 

fucking absolutely gutted. the amount of strenght (and bravery) it has to take to act out a recreation of your worst trauma. holy shit!!! the amount of awe i have for Richard Gadd, who also stars as himself drawing from his real life experiences with a stalker/abuse/addiction. there's several scenes in this that just broke me to pieces. 10/10.

yuo should wach thsi, it’s fanastci, absoltly harowin.
- sent frm my ipohne

a film about the constant reminder in every corner of a journey that there's no framing of families that can fulfill the idea of perfection, and the more you know about it, the more you want to give your best at building that frame.

ini film jokan apa kolam anak-anak, dangkal sekali.

wow this movie was so nuanced, sensitive and gentle in telling a very important story. it felt like a companion for people who are trying to regain what was taken away from them. so powerful & meaningful. i hope the voices of all those who were silenced will be heard again. such a beautiful film.

i didn't have a high expectation but this movie was better than what i expected. this is one of those odd movies that i can recognise to be objectively great - excelling in its formal attributes to pull together a horror movie that is altogether terrifying, engrossing, beautiful and enigmatic to a fault - yet something about the story simply causes it to faulter. certainly brilliantly well made, but it tries to juggle too much, getting messier by the minute as it trudges along its exceedingly long runtime. indeed, South Korea never fails to make a good shamanism movie.

Denis Villeneuve is a very important voice of big budget cinema. his meticulous detail and scope is known; he crafts these worlds and labors over their specificity and then looks at them from the outside. blends impressionism and expressionism. an epic of power, spirituality, mythos, tribalism and politics set against such a breathtaking feat of a design... that also ends up being about a boy struggling with his future, his legacy, and we come with him as he finds his way through this exhausting world. It’s no longer simple desert power or bloodline power, it’s power over all.

It's an uncomfortable truth - evil can be mundane. 

The Zone of Interest doesn't show you the inside of Auschwitz. you don't see any death, even with it all around you. in some shots, you may even forget it's there. you don't have access to the prisoner's pain, because you cannot understand. all you have is the boring life of some of the most infamous people on the planet. a life that might not look all that different from a typical family. because it's easy to be evil, when evil is mundane. you can tune out a few screams.

in frames of celluloid, their story unfolds…
a canvas of love, where warmth enfolds.
..
her son’s destiny, a mother's embrace…
in each other's eyes, they find their grace.

what a pure love.

woah that “scene” will haunt me for a long time!

at its core, monisme is a philosophical concept that posits the unity of all things, suggesting that everything in existence is interconnected and ultimately part of a single, underlying reality. 

Riar Rizaldi masterfully delves into this concept, weaving together stunning cinematography, thought-provoking imagery, and profound philosophical musings to evoke a sense of wonder and contemplation.

Monisme challenges viewers to consider the deeper implications of monism on their perception of reality and their place within the universe. through poetic narration and evocative symbolism, the film invites contemplation on timeless questions about the nature of existence, the interconnectedness of all things, and the search for meaning in a seemingly chaotic world.

it's an incredible experience that will leave a lasting impression on all who encounter it.

This review may contain spoilers.

a woman kills herself because she’s horrified at the thought of being pregnant. then a man takes her body, cuts her to pieces, throws away her mind, and replaces it with the thing she was afraid of most. this made a complete joke out of a woman’s autonomy.

a perfect cautionary tale to women - don’t throw yourself off a bridge, there may be some creep waiting to desecrate your body.

but, god, let put it this way: Emma Stone’s performance carries the whole film. there wouldn’t be Poor Things without her.

my personal favorite genre, a film that revolves around a love story with an inevitable tragic or unfortunate outcome. the central characters may face insurmountable challenges, external forces, or circumstances that prevent them from achieving a happy and fulfilling romantic relationship. the term emphasizes the sense of doom or impending tragedy that looms over the characters' love affair.
