Joker: Folie à Deux (2024)
Not the People's Joker
Okay, first of all this was not a bad film. But it was also not the film the fans of the first feature would expect as a sequel. It was a completely different approach that went too far and pissed people off. Yes, also I could have done without the musical numbers, especially those dream sequences. Yes it took away a lot from the film's gritty and bleak tone - which was still there, but it was difficult to take it as seriously as the first part. That was an ambitions approach by Todd Phillips to do something comepltely new and inspired but this failed. The rest did not fail.
It was still a dark psychological drama (maybe this time more a drama than a thriller but that does not hurt) about shizophrenia. It was also a good court room drama with a nice twist. I liked that part. I think its like they sang in the film "Lets get people for what they came from" which the movie did not if you expect a 1:1 sequel of the first one, but it was still good to bring the story forward into a new direction (and no I am not linking to the , again misleading musical numbers but from a thriller to a character drama. Also I thinbk people were expecting a completely different dynamic between the characters Joker and Harley Quinn.
Performance wise it was good. I loved Joaquin Phoenix who came close to his performance in the first part. He was tremendous. There were many moments that would again bring him back to awards season, if the film would not have been such a (unjustified) ciritical failure. He was really amazing and alone for Phoenix' performance people should go and appreciate the film.
Also Lady Gaga was great. She probabyl could have digged a bit deeper into that character (but there the screenplay failed), but she did most of it and I really liked her last scene, very good performance. Catherine Keener and Brendan Gleason were serveable but underused. I think it waill be the last Joker film we saw and maybe thats for the best ( I never thought the first one needed a sequel) but it really should go down as one of the film that carries one of Joaquin Phoenix' finest performances.
The Bikeriders (2023)
A forgotten Genre
It was a good film. Not the kind I was expecting, but a really good character study and something very un-common these days. A film that is not plot driven but totally character driven. But this has been a proved speciality by director Jeff Nichols in the past already and he proves himself here once again. Nevertheless, the screenplay was still great, because it really took time to create and develope the characters.
Performance wise I applaud Austin Butler for giving once again a great, charismatic and memorable performance. I think we found one of the greatest of this new wave of young actors. Tom Hardy is fantastic as well and deserves a lot of attention for his very multiple-layered character that is not like you would expect it to be. Jodie Comer is also good and I liked the performance of Nichols' muse Michael Shannon.
Good cinematigraphy, editing and soundtrack round this up to a very calm (in story telling - not sound) slow burn that focuses on a forgotten culture and portrays perfectly the rise and fall of that culture.
Sing Sing (2023)
Different kind of approach
And interesting and different kind of prison drama. Also strucural it was something non-conventional.
A great performance driven film with a cast that mostly consists of non-professional actors.
Lead is the cast by Colman Domingo who once again gives a tremendous performance that will surely bring him back to the Oscar game. Wonderfully nuanced performance, and with his face he can say so much more than with his voice (and his voice does wonders too. )
Paul Raci is another rare professional actor of the cast and also does a fine job. I really liked the performance of Clarence Maclin who will probably go places this season as well.
The screenplay was great the atmosphere absolutely fitting the environment. Good film and very though provoking.
His Three Daughters (2023)
A rare Gem
An extremly well written, acted and directed emotional rollercoaster about the dynamic of three estranged sisters who are all seem very different but actually not much different at all. Bound together in a forced situation on the death bed of their father.
The acting is marvelous. All three ladies are incredible. The biggest stand out is Natasha Lyonne who will most likely face a lot of award attention this year - at least she should! But also Carrie Coon is fantastic, especially when she breaks the strictness of her character. I liked Elizabeth Olsen as well who had probably the most difficult character to handle. On the surface being the personalized positivity but beneath that being a very troubled person. Wonderful. Another stand out for me was Jay O. Sanders but I will not get into too much detail here.
The screenplay is great. A film that absolutely spoke to me in every aspect and a piece of cinema that is rarely made these days so I am glad that once in a while we get a purely character driven film like this again and this. And the ending? Wow. Please make more of this kind of movies again! I miss them.
The Substance (2024)
A new kind of cinema
What a ride. One crazy mind f..... with a Lynchian twist. It was extremely stylish and original. Actually one of the most original films of recent time, if you look at it in total. There are scenes, ankles and twists that you have never encountered on screen before. It was brave in many ways and I applaud writer and director Coralie Fargeat for that. And of course Demi Moore. What.a.brave.turn! Its really something you would never had expected her to do or see her in. Its not only her best career best performance but Demi Moore also proved how she can disclosure herself not only physically but also emotionally. I am not sure if she will be respected during awards season, as this film will really divide the voters but she surely deserves to. And then there is a fantastic turn by Dennis Quaid. His character does not add a whole lot to the film, except being the embodied chauvinism which is one of the pillars the film criticizes, but what a performance. Many might call it over the top or a charicature or parody. But comparing to Quaids usually track record he really went out of his comfort zone with that and delivered one of the best supporting performances I have seen all year so far. Marageret Qualley was also fine and once again proves her status as one of the nest best things. I loved the cinematography and editing which was superb. The general look and growing uncomfortable feel was awesome. Really a new kind of movie - with a strong criticism on the worlds obsession with youth and beauty but also a film with a very simple moral: ALWAYS follow the rules....
Kinds of Kindness (2024)
Another inspiring Lanthimos
Nice follow up of Poor Things for Yorgos Lanthimos.
As always expect the unexpected.
You get three extraordinary Lanthimos stories for the price of one. What more can you ask for?
I loved all three stories especially the first two. It is wonderful to watch how they develop as they are all far from predictable and you can never guess what's happening next. All of them explore again deep edges of the human soul with a quirky twist. All three stories share one theme : Being dependent.
Jesse Plemons was fantastic in the first two segments while the 3rd segment belonged to Emma Stone.
Stone was fine in general but the true scene stealer was Plemons and this marks another milestone in his carrier and serves as a proof that can perfectly leads a film. Stone was a bit better in the previous two collabarations with Lanthimos, but still presents us facettes of her talent that haven't been disclosed before.
Willem Dafoe and Hong Chau give great supporting performances as well.
Great screenplay and characters make this film absolutely worth to see.
Alien: Romulus (2024)
Lacked a bit of relevance
It was decent but also a bit of a let down, but maybe because my expectations were far too high. I was extremely looking forward to the film that kind of fills the gap between Alien and Aliens with the same look and feel. I did get that look and feel. I did get the antmosphere and I did get some very very nice effects. What I missed was a compelling storyline. While the movie offers a lot of rerfences to literarily all previous Alien movies and does not give an interesting connection to the canon which makes it appear to be a bit useless ( not as useless as the AVP movies though ) as it did not offer anything new to the franchise except for one stupid thing which I don't want to spoiler but it appears in the last act ( that was the low point of the movie and maybe entire franchise even beating Ripley making love to a xenomorph in Part IV).
It really works as an homage to all previous films, especially the first three and that's something to respect and like it for.
Cast was good, really liked Cailee Speany who works well as a modern Sigourney Weaver. I just wished the film had much more purpose in the canon.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes (2024)
Powerful sequel
Surprisingly well done sequel that approaches a totally new direction of the franchise. It surely did not disappoint and indeed is one of the best and most entertaining blockbusters of the year so far.
The visual effects were temendous as was the cinematography score and general production design.
With Wes Ball they found an adequate director to follow into the footsteps of Matt Reeves. The acting was also good. Owen Teague carried the film wonderfully on his digital shoulders, same quality Andy Serkis once did. Peter Macon be Kevin Durand also give very memorable performances and had great characters to develop.
Really looking forward to further sequels that focus deeper on the co-existence of two powerful species.
Civil War (2024)
Indie-Blockbuster
It was really a great film and a good redemption for Alex Garland after that fiasco called "Men". It is a very realistic look how a civil war would be depict in the US out of the perspective of some neutral journalists. What fascinates me about the film is that it manages to be both minimalistic and bombastic. It seems it just created a new genre, the Indie-Blockbuster. The performances were great. First of all Kirsten Dunst gives one of her very best performances. She really nails the role and the horror of the war is so often reflected in her facial expressions. A great turn. A fantastic and very underrated turn by Stephen McKinley Henderson who should finally get some awards attention for his beautiful performance in this movie. In my opinion he deserves to be on many lists at the end of the year. Also Cailee Speeny proves again that she is going to be one of the actors to look out for in this next generation of Hollywood. Intersting soundtrack, and great diection by Garland. The last 30 minutes are absolutely intriguing. So far one of the best films of the year.
Argylle (2024)
Semi-fun
I love twisted films so I had my blast with this one. Even if some twists are really way above the writers heads but it was fun nevertheles.
I dont think it is one of Matthew Vaughn's strongest efforts as he lost himself a bit within all the turns.
Also an improvement could have been the casting of the leading lady: Bryce Dallas Howard is not the strongest actress, she can be fine if the perfect material is gven to her that doesnt require her to add something to it, but this was the case here. I think a better skilled actress would have raised the overall quality of the film much better.
Sam Rockwell was good as usual but I had the impression towards the end of the film he got a bit bored. I liked Bryan Cranston and Catharine O'Hara who obviously had a lot of fun with their roles. I think there was also a lot of wasted potential though, mostly in the waste of Samuel L. Jackson and Ariana DeBose.
Anyway a good soundtrack, nice action scenes, good portion of crude humour and a semi-animated cat made this worthwhile in the end. Just far away from a masterpeice and I dobut the foreseen franchise will happen.
Dune: Part Two (2024)
Milestone in SciFi Cinema
Now this was a bombastic sequel to an already very good film but this beats the original. Especially in regards of story telling as I found the story in this installment far more compelling as in the first one, which know feels like a Prologue to a fantastic cinamtic experience.
I have never read the book so I cannot compare it, but in terms of writing and especially directing this one is a milestone of SciFi cinema.
I also though some of the performances improved. Timothée Chalamet was great, especially in the second half. Zendaya also had much more to do than in the first part and delivers a wonderful performance. Javier Bardem was great and I also liked that his role was way extended. Good support by Rebecca Furgeson and Josh Brolin. I loved Christopher Walken in his bit role who really did the best he could with the limited role he had and it was amazing. Florence Pugh was also fine, although a little bit wasted. Last but certainly not leased there was this tour de force performance by Austin Butler who was absolutely menacing. He put so much energy into that role and developed one of the scariest villains of the last years. Definitely the best performance in the film and one performance people will still talk about in years. Autin Butler did it again! Bravo!
Technically the film is undoubtly brilliant, from the cinemtography, over the visual effects to the great score and absolutely fantastic sound. All masters of their craft! A needed milestone in cinema!
The Whale (2022)
Sad
Trgic and absolutely well done movie. I really enjoyed the one setting location and the way the film was drafted and directed. It is really a though proviking drama. Sometimes maybe a bit too cartoonish and too cliched but you can easily forgive this if you look at the complete essence of the film.
There is no doubt that Brendan Fraser gives one of the best performances of the year and probbly the best of his career. It is the best example of a come back performance. Welcome back Mr. Fraser. I just wished Hollywood hadnt ignored your great talent the past years!
He nailed the role, he got my emotional captivted for the whole time and I just hoped all the time he would get the redemption his character deserves.
Hong Chau was fantastic as well. She really stood out even in scenes with Fraser she was able to own the screen and that is something to really point out, given how amazing Fraser was. I liked how natural she was and that she created a real character out of this.
The weakest link was unfortunately Sadie Sink. As great as she was on Stranger Things, as disappointing she was here. I dont think she understood her character's depth and played it like a spoiled brat. Which it was. But Sink didnt allow us to look beneath the surface and thats a shame. I also think thats where Darren Aronofsky failed a bit in his direction. As great as he developed Fraser and Chau, it seemed he did not care for his other supporting characters that much. Especially Sink. But also Samantha Morton was sometimes overacting and cringy.
Ty Simpkins was fine, I think he was the only one who could break out of his stereotype.
The score was great, the screenplay was great and the message was great. I did love the ending, not all of it, but the way it ended was just killing me. Great job. Great movie. A must see.
The Son (2022)
Hugh Jackman is The Son
I think I am one of the very few people who really loved this and got emotionally very engaged to it. Yes it is inferior to "The Father" but that was to be expected as "The Father" was one of the true masterpieces of the last years. This is more conventional and straight forward.
I have read many reviews of people complaining it is not depicting mental illness correctly or at least very shallow and cliched. I cannot judge that as I never experienced mental illness and to me it appeared to be very believable, Other complained that it is not out of the perspective of the son but of the father, well that makes sense. Because the film is less about mental illness as such but rather how it is handled by a parent. And it is about a generation conflict, the father wants to be a better father than his own father was. Ever thought that the title of The Son is not referring to the kid but rather to Hugh Jackman's character? He plays a son who had a bad childhood, who blames his father for a lot of things and whose father is not regretting any of it. Now he is in the position to face a challenge with his own kid and tries to be a better father than his own father. But as he never got affection, understanding and probably love as a son himself, it is hard for him to forward these emotions to his own kid who has serious issues that are therefor difficult to handle for Jackman's character.
This is how I interpret the film and title, and I think due to bad marketing that got lost in many audiences perspectives.
I loved Hugh Jackman who gave a tremendous performance. One of his career best for sure. He has many layers of emotions to go through and his final scenes are simply devastating. Surely deserves more attention than he received. Laura Dern is servevable as always. A good performance, not truly outstanding, but nails it nevertheless. Vanessa Kirby had the more interesting role and therefor was able to show more facettes due to the conflict she goes through. Anthony Hopkins appears in a small but very memorable and effective role. Great work again that shows his fantastic range (He plays to Grandfather characters this year that couldn't e more different .- see Armageddon Times).
Last but not least we have Zen McGrath. Many people complained about his performance. I dont get this. I thought he was fantastic and really captured the essence of his role. He did make me care for his character and his well-being. I was really attached to him and that proves that his performance worked perfectly for me. Dont understand the bashing.
Besides the fantastic ensemble acting we also have a very solid direction by Florian Zeller. He builds up tension effectively and takes his time for his characters. Great job again. The screenplay was great, too. I dont get the criticism there either. I think people were expecting too much for a second "The Father" and were disappointed that this was taking a completely different and more straight forward direction.
Close (2022)
Thoughtprovoking
Heartwratching, powerful, tragic and one of the best films of the year 2022. Just incredible what an achievement this is and the film needs to be seen by the world. Its a film about loneliness, friendship, loss, grief and most importantly suppressed feelings. Its so rich in what it says and in what it is about.
The acting is simply incredible. Especially if you realize the two kids had their first time appearances. Eden Dambrine gives one of the very best performances of the year and beats out many Hollywood heavy weight actors for this. He is so natural. His expressions so impressive. What he does with his eyes is simply mesmerizing. There is so much he does in his most silent moments. A lot of actors can learn from that.
Gustav De Waele is also fantastic. There is one particular scene that rips out your heart and turns it apart. Great job. But the entire cast is amazing and the film proves to be one of the best ensemble acting achievements of the year. From the adult part Emilie Dequenne is the best. Her performance grows scene by scene.
The screenplay is amazing. The direction by Lukas Dhont absolutely great, the way he builds up everything is just great, Wonderful score.
I dont want to tell too much so the twist is not given away, Knowing as less as possible is the best. You will be surprised.
Babylon (2022)
The Wild Child
A nicely ambitious film about an interesting era of Hollywood that was never visible in their films of that time.
Its a film from a cinema lover to cinema lovers and while we had similar projects like this during the year (The Fabelmans, The Offer) this one is the most different wildest and in many ways bravest.
There are unfortunately issues with it. I wasnt fond of the direction by Damien Chazelle, as his direction was all over the place. The film never really knew what it wanted to be: Comedy? Drama? Thriller? Romance?
There were many segments that could have easily reduced the very long running time of 3 hours and increased the quality of the film. Generally editing was another issue. There are so many meaningless moments in the film when the camera films steady on a face or item without reason.
But there are many goods as well. First of all the film had probably my favorite final scene of any movie this year. Very well done and surprising in a way too. The acting was very solid. Margot Robbie was great, I think I would have loved Emma Stone, the original choice, even better, but Robbie added something very raw to it what Stone probably wouldn't have been capable to do. In a weaker year for female performance she could have easily stabbed an Oscar nomination for this. Brad Pitt was absolutely outstanding and gives one of his best and most nuanced performances. He is very underrated for this turn as there are many ways this character could have been played and Pitt chose the right one. Great performance, funny and tragic. Jean Smart was very good too, I especially loved her monologue. Was not the biggest fan of Tobey Maguire as he overacted his role too much. And last but certainly not least Diego Calva is a fantastic discovery and I am looking forward to see more of him. He really carried a huge junk of the film on his own shoulders.
The music was great, the cinematography fantastic, the production design absolutely top notch. So yeah, if Damien Chazelle would have put more focus on it, (for example like The Offer, which was a brilliant example of a film( well miniseries) about filmmaking) , he would have made a masterpiece. Now its still a solid film worth to see. Expect the unexpected.
To Leslie (2022)
Riseborough is brilliant
A rollercoaster of emotions with a tremendous performance by Andrea Riseborough. It really is one of the best performances of the year and will most liklely (but hopefully not) end up as one of the most underrated performances. I really liked the energy Riseborough pushed into her character. At first you would think she straight out overacts but this was just one facette of this very complicated but extremly natural character. She really was great and showed off all her acting strengths.
The rest of the cast was good too. We have Allison Janney in a smaller role who is okay but has one fantastic scene towards the ending.
I really loved Marc Maron. Not only becuase he had such a warm and sympahtic character, but also becuase he pulled it off so well and put so much heart into it. A great performance that deserves a shoutout.
Other than that there was not a single bad performance. Its a very good character study and thanks to a great direction really pulls all the strings that are needed. Surprisingly atmospheric too in a way, at least it felt like you can touch and feel that area it takes place and its characters.
The Pale Blue Eye (2022)
Sherlock Holmes meets Sleepy Hollow
A very intersting adaptation of a great and intriguing story. I liked it. It had several lengths but I am very happy it took its time to tell the story and really focus on the characters. In that way it is something very rare and old fashioned becuase nowadays movies either focus on character or on plot, rarely on both in such a detailed way. This one manages both. Add some "Sleepy Hollow" atmosphere to it and you get a very nice gothinc thriller full of highlights. I really loved the ending as I did not see that coming. The acting was generally great. You cant go wrong with Christian Bale who was once again fantastic in the lead. At first a very subtle performance that becomes a rollercoaster of emotions. Well done. The true standout for sure was Harry Melling. He perfectly embodied the pain, the weirdness and the smarts of Edgar Allen Poe. Melling truly went a long way from Harry Potter's chubby and annyoing little cousin to this masterful performance. I hope he gets ther respect he deserves and although he is widely ignored for this performance, although he deserves awards attention, I am sure in the future we will see more of similiar greatness of him. I wasnt a fan of Gillian Anderson who overacted here and Charlotte Gainsburgh was sadly wasted. Toby Jones gave a decent support performance and it was a nice pleasure to see Timothy Spall and especialy Robert Duvall in minor roles.
The look and feel was very authentic and realistic. Extremly atmospheric and beautifully photographed. I loved Howard Shore's powerful score and all this rounds it up to an intesrting , creepy mystery thriller. Well done Scott Cooper!
The Fabelmans (2022)
How to become one of the most influential movie directors of all times....
A biopic of Steven Spielberg directed by Steven Spielberg, actually nothing can go wrong because he knows the best what his life looked like, what inspired him to become THE director he became and of course telling what he wants to tell. If that story or plot is cinematic gold doesnt need to be a priority in this case. There is not much of a plot, its truly a coming of age story of a boy who follows his dreams and a boy who gets influenced by a lot of people in his sorroundings to fulfill this very dream.
Its really a beautiful piece of cinema and one of the best films this year. Steven Spielberg gives us a very intimate look into his own soul and life. A master of his craft and this movie just adds to his legacy which is kind of ironic but just as it is supposed to be.
The acing is tremendous and some of the best ensemble work in any Spielberg film. Newcomer Gabriel LaBelle is the newcomer of the year. He really nails the role and gives it the right amount of heart and soul. He came the character. Great work of this young actor and surely worthy of any kind of awards attention. Michelle Williams is also great. I was not the biggest fan of her character who sometimes appeared to be annoying but I liked how Williams mixed this with the other character traits to make this character appealing after all. It was surely not an easy role as on paper I think it was not a very likable character on first sight, or lets say its a very difficult character to like but still a character with the heart at the right spot. Williams brought this effectively on screen.
I did prefer Paul Dano though. He had the less showier part but most of it happened with his expressions and quiet moments. Its a fantastic performance by Dano who keeps being great and versatile. I also loved Judd Hirsch's brief role where he completey commanded the screen and of course David Lynch's cameo is something to remember. Seth Rogen was okay but I felt they could have fleshed out his role more. John Williams last Spielberg score (most likely) is a very subtle and beautiful piece of music. I loved the cinematography and general look. On one hand a very un-Spielberg film but on the other hand just as recognizable as any other. Pure cinematic magic.
Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)
Great sequel - but I prefer Part i
The return to Pandora almost felt like wild life documentary of that very planet. The problem was the lack of a good script. While James Cameron is not the best writer, he at least could present a decent plot for the first part.
Here he more emphasized on natrure, lots of characters and... water, his favorite element.
But to be honest, the way he presents us his Pandora documentary is just tremendous. I have never ever seen better visual effects in my entire life. This is I think as good as it can get. The characters were absolutely 100% photo realistic. The cinematography is pitch perfect and so is the score.
Performance wise it improved a little bit from the first part. I really, really liked Zoe Sladana this time, especially in the second half she performed marvelously. Sure there is still overacting, which was a bothering factor of the first part, but it actually fits her character perfectly. I also like that Sam Worthington took some acting lessons since the first part as his performance had more edge this time and slightly improved. Love the way they brought Sigourney Weaver back and her performance was really great as well. Also Stephan Lang was not as one diemensional as the last time he visited Pandora. I also liked most of the kids. Kate Winslet was sadly underused and there is also part of her storyline that causes some problems with the screenplay, especially at the end. And like her character some come and go without any reason. I guess that will be more concluded in the next installments. Anyway for sure one film to see on the silver screen and a great blockbuster to end the year with. I preferred the first one though.
The Banshees of Inisherin (2022)
Masterclass in acting, writing and direccting.
A beautiful, sad and funny movie about the loss of friendship and what can cause this in a person. It is a very rich film that deserves all the applause it receives and it is a pure masterclass of acting.
The funny thing is that it seems like Martin McDonagh made kind of a prequel to "In Bruges" with Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson portraying similiar characters (yet in different circumstances) and show off the same dynamic. It feels like the film portrays the great-grand parents of those two In Bruges' characters. The environment of course is different and extremly unique in its own way. Colin Farrell surely gives one of his greatest performances and this is the film he will most likely be remembrered forever for. He was brave to show all kind of different emotions that he hesitated to show most of his film career. Brendan Gleeson is simply terrific. Finally he gets the recoginition he is overdue for a long time already. Its such an interesting character and constantly unpredictable. Then you have Barry Keoghan who hits the final straw of becoming one of the respected actors of his career. He really has the most tragic charaxcter of all and he masters it marvelously next to the two more famous actors besides him. Kerry Condon also gives an extremly beautiful performance full of strengths. From that perspective the film is already a winner but then we also have a very well balanced direction by Martin McDonagh and an extremly well drafted screenplay by him. Thi sin addition to a fantasic cinematography and great score makes this film a true masterpiece of the year. The ending was a bit bleak but I think that will grow on me on future encounters with the film.
Truely one of the best of the year.
Emancipation (2022)
Strong performances, solid film
It was a solid anti slavery action thriller. I liked the concept which appeared to be a more serious concept version of Django Unchained and a mix between the Tarantino classic and 12 Years a Slave.
Antoine Fuqua presented his own film and thats what I liked about it, he did not try to copy the famous two classics but made something on his very own. In recent Academy Award winner Will Smith he found a fantstic actor (who ironically was a front runner for the Django Unchained lead ) who gives a strong, brave and powerful performance . The type of performance itself is compareable to Lenoardo DiCaprio in "The Revenant". Its an extremly phyiscal role and while DiCaprio famously fought a bear, we see Will Smith fighting an alligator. But Smith does great from the beginning to the end and once again delivers one of his finest performances. The other cast member worth to mention is Ben Foster who gave a silent and very menacing performance that goes right under your skin. He has a fantastic monologue in the middle of the film. One of the best supporting performances I have seen this year so far.
While I loved those two performances I was a bit let down by the film in general. It has fantastic action and battlefield scenes, but becomes quickly very monotone which causes certain lenghts, especially in the mid section of the film. I think they could have worked a bit longer in the editing room to speed up the pacing. Also while there are some great shots by cinematographer Robert Richardson, I found the film too dark and grey for its own sake.
Still worth to see, not the classic I was anticipating.
She Said (2022)
Very well done investigation drama
Good journalism investigation drama of a still very vivid story that matters as much as it always mattered.
It was a brave move to bring out a movie as detailed and obvious at this time already , but it was also the absolutely right timing for this.
I liked how Maria Scharder approached the story and characters, mainly focusing on facts rather than dramatizing them for the sake of a storytelling. And it is rich enough to make an exciting film thanks to the great screenplay.
The acting is also good, delivering one of the best ensemble performances of the year. First of all Carey Mulligan is great in her role, which is no where supporting so this is one of the biggest category frauds this year. But Mulligan convinces with her eager and strengths and she is able to add a lot to her character that was not written.
The film is also further proof that Zoe Kazan deserves to have more acting gigs. She is great and truely embodied her character well.
Patricia Clarkson and Samantha Morton give nice and memorable supporting performances. I really liked the score and that the decision to use real-life recordings and statements of real life actors and victims , be it present in the film as themselves (Ashely Judd) or on the phone (Gwyneth Paltrow). Nice creative decision that adds a lot to the already existing realism of the film.
The Woman King (2022)
Female-driven epicv
The film started out very strong and nicely twisted in a certain way but towards the end became a bit slow and repeative.
I loved Viola Davis in the leading role who gave literarily a very powerful performance, not only physically but also emotionally. Great and original career turn by her. Proof of not being a fantastic actress but also a true action heroine.
The rest of the cast did well, too. Thuso Mbedu gives one of the most intersting new comer performances of the year. She surely will have a nice career ahead. John Boyega also proves to develope into a fine actor. I loved the score and the general look. The action sequenzes were wonderfully choreographed and there lies a lot of depths into the film.
It surely is the Viola Davis show but there are more great outings. Not a perfect film but can easily hold itself against the typically male-driven historical epics.
Till (2022)
Give Danielle Deadwyler the Oscar right away!
Danielle Deadwyler cannot be ignored this year. What a powerhouse performance that goes right under your skin.
It is such an important, tragic and sheer unbelievable story that finally found its way to the screen and to a broader audience. Injustice in its purest and a shame to mankind. This was realistically and perfectly brought on screen by director Chinonyne Chukwu who did great things with this film. Really not hiding to show uncomfortable things and pure emotions. The screenplay was excellently drafted and therefor easy to keep the attention of the audience through the whole film.
Besides Danielle Deadwyler's performance of a lifetime you will spot other fantastic perforamnces. First of all young Jalyn Hall in the role of Emmett Till really was able to capture the pure essence of his character and naturally brought it ons creen. Franie Faison is always great if he gets the right material and I loved Whoopi Goldberg in her brief performance. She did not have much dialogue but everything was working through her experessions. The best performance besides Deadwyler is a very underrated performance that hopefully will not stay that way: John Douglas Thompson. His confrontation wtih Marmie and also his Trial scenes were simply perfect. Nueanced emotions that gave me constant shivers. Hopefully Thompson will be regarded for this great work he did in such a minor but very important role.
Really an emotional rollercoaster and a must see!
Triangle of Sadness (2022)
The Return of the Satire
Quite a triumph and the return of the Satire. The film is separated in three chapters. The first chapter seems a bit off compared to the rest but it makes total sense in context. The film lives from a triangle of aspects: The humor, the strong message and vomitting, no kidding, the twists. Rounded up with great acting all around. It really has a strong social message, you could say that director Ruben Östlund rubs it too much into your face but thats not the case, thats what I think is satire all about. I really liked what it tried to say and how the message was pulled forward. The performances were all around great. Hard to determine a stand out but if I have to its most likely Dolly De Leon, especially in the third act. But you also have wonderful performances by Woody Harrelson, who was hilarious, as well as Harris Dickinson and the late Charbi Dean. The screenplay was fantastic and stands out in year full of great original screenplays. The direction fantastic and the camera work very effective and interesting. A very though provoking film. I was just not the biggest fan of the ending but the rest is truly great and worth to see. Don't mind the long running time, although its very dialogue based, I thought it was extremely entertaining.
