| Psychotropic and bewildering yet strangely enticing. You won't find a standard narrative structure here but the trip is intense and well worth it. |
| Dumont doesn't seem to know what he wants to say here. Despite Lea Seydoux's commitment to the role, you tend to remain indifferent to all the drama being thrown at you |
| There are some good ideas in here but Benoît Forgeard is much better at shorts than full-length films. Difficult to get through. |
| A by-the-numbers script that's only elevated by some impressive performances. And yet it's still problematic. Queer characters are mostly ornementation or caricature, as is the impact of AIDS on the community. All in the service of a homophobic "saviour" peddling pseudoscience. A missed opportunity. |
| Jackie Chan is the Buster Keaton of martial arts. You don't watch this for the story, you come for the stunts, and they're definitely worth it. |
| Absurdist compilation of 3 shorts with a vague common thread. Going from best to worst. Not on par with Dupieux as far as French absurdism goes but still my kind of humour. |
| A step above Cold Pursuit, the US remake with Liam Neeson by the same director. The dark comedy works much better with the Scandinavian setting and actors. |
| What a punch to the gut. An unforgiving critique of exploitation that captures the desperation of poverty better than anything I've ever seen. Fantastic acting and camera work, those derby scenes are incredible. |
| As a throwback to 80s family cinema, it’s quite good. As a sequel to Ghostbusters, not so much. It lacks the charm and witty banter of the original films, counting on nostalgia rather than story. |
| I read this tale many times as a kid, as it was included in an Arthurian Legends book I loved and practically destroyed from use. It's interesting to see with adult eyes, even if the story has been slightly adapted. It's spellbindingly beautiful, all about the journey and not the destination. Definitely one for a rewatch. |
