Napoleon (2023)
9/10
BRILLIANT !!!
6 December 2023
Excellent movie from Ridley Scott on the exceptionnal life of the Emperor NAPOLEON. Joaquin Pjoenix as usual is astonishing, and achieve to show on screen, the legendary "EGO" of this special guy. Vanessa kirby is fascinating, and very beautiful and graceful, she mebodiesthe Empress Josephine with such subtility. The movie is Groundbreaking for the rebuilding of the historical battles won or lost by Napoleon and the French Army. The Costumes, the Art Direction are very genuine and make this picture very watchable. I loved the relation between Napoleon and Joséphine, even they were seperated geographically, their eternal LOVE was always present. AMAZING BIOPIC !!!

Shame (2011)
8/10
ASTONISHING !!!
20 September 2023
I saw this movie, cause a lot of people around me REALLY WANTED, that i watch it... Through the life of a SEX ADDICT, Micheal Fassbender is absolutely amazing and disturbing, i understand why he was awarded Best Actor at 68th Venice Film Festival, his character has a "madness"... he cannot live without SEX, it's a problem that affects several people in the world. How can we deal with that ??? Human Being is meant to have sex, to procreate, to give or receive pleasure and sometime... for others things. What kind of hobbies could prevent this addiction ?!... Reading, Music, Workout, Studying, whatever... Steve McQueen show us the cruelty of life with his actors, Carey Mulligan is fascinating as well, she plays a trouble woman who is unable to live alone. Maybe she's afraid or something, or someone, LIFE can be so awful when you're bored...

too much talking !!!
10 September 2023
I saw this movie in Preview... the picture talks about the trial of Pierre Goldman, (Half-brother of the french singer Jean-Jacques Goldman) for the murder of two female pharmacists, in the 70's. This movie seems to be a little bit long, cause of the dialogues... The lead character has to defend himself against differents lawyers. Some want to condemn him the others try to free him. Arieh Worhthalter embodies this protagonist with so much passion, his performance is stunning... all the supporting characters are good too. If you like movies which take place at Court, this movie is for you, if you don't, be careful because there are a lot of talking, who can annoy you in the end. But, it still a powerful movie, well directed, well acted, etc...

OH MY GOD !!!

This movie is just AMAZING !... this masterpiece blew my mind. I wondered how the Cannes Festival Jury Members decide to give the "Palme d'Or" instead of the "Best Actress Prize" Sandra Huller gives the PERFORMANCE of a LIFETIME. If she don't win the Best Leading Actress Oscar next year, i will never go back to the cinema anymore. The whole bunch of actors are extraordinary, even the young boy in the movie seems very mature for his age, he's turn was heartbreaking. I really hope this movie, will represent FRANCE in the International Film Category for the next Academy Award season. For me, the best movie of the year. It will certainly be nominated or rewarded, in a lot of ceremonies in the Film Industry.

INTERESTING !!!

A good movie, if you wanna know how to be a pornstar nowadays, but the movie Title is confusing, because we don't really understand why the main protagonist is so sad. Where is his crisis ??? Is it mental ? Is it physical ? Is it existencial ? Or whatever... Manuel Abramovich is certainly a young talented director, but the plot has a lack of something, undoubtedly. Lalo the main character is handsome, very easy on the eye, and we understand quickly that he is very talented for the Porn Industry. A movie which should be seen by the whole LGBT community in the world, to support all gays who wanna make an impact in the Adult Movie.

Carmen (II) (2022)
9/10
EXTRAORDINARY !!!
3 July 2023
Benjamin Millepied is a Filmaker. The three lead characters are fabulous. Melissa Barrera, she can sing, she can dance and she's able to embody a character. Paul mescal in a different kind of character we used to know him : a TOUGH guy (soldier)... I'm glad a director was visionnary enough, to explore the captivating charisma of Rossy de Palma. The dance sequences are fascinating, i love seeing the differents slow-motion used during the whole movie to bring a unique tone to this picture... Marvelous i am pleasantly surprised, and for the future i want to see more pictures signed by Benjamin Millepied.
