Gone girl is a 2014 film directed by David Fincher, who also directed Se7en (1995) and Fight club (1999), just to name just a couple of his movies. The protagonists are Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike and the film is a thriller with a fairly complex plot that I will explore below. This is one of … More Gone Girl: Movie Review
I loved Get out (2017) and I went to the cinema to see Us with very high expectations. It turned out to be a mistake. It’s not that it’s a bad movie, not by any stretch of the imagination, but it’s not even particularly good as it’s a bit confusing and derivative. What a shame! … More Us: Movie Review
It may seem impossible for a 30-years-old director to debut (I consider this a debut given that it’s not clear yet who directed Piranha II: The Spawning in 1981) with a magnificent film like The Terminator, but that’s what James Cameron did in 1984. After all, we are talking about one of the most influential directors in … More The Terminator: Movie Review
And for the 250th time I have watched Halloween, the 1978 film directed by John Carpenter and starring Jamie Lee Curtis (she was 19 year old at that time!!!). This should already say something about what I think of the movie: it’s an incredible unrivaled masterpiece that should be watched and re-watched all the time. I … More John Carpenter’s Halloween: Movie Review
For the sake of precision: I watched Michael Haneke’s 2007 Funny games, not Michael Haneke’s 1997 Funny games. It shouldn’t make much of a difference, since the former is a shot-by-shot remake of the latter, but it’s better to understand each other from the beginning. So I enjoyed the performances of Naomi Watts and Tim … More Funny Games: Movie Review
Kingsman: The Secret Service is a 2014 movie directed by Matthew Vaughn, who had previously made both the interesting Kick-ass (2010) and Stardust (2007), that I decided to avoid out of respect towards Neil Gaiman and his fantastic novel with the same title. Let me say that I understand very well the reason behind the success … More Kingsman: The Secret Service: Movie Review
John Carpenter made his debut as a director in 1976 with Assault on Precinct 13, if we don’t count Dark Star which, despite coming out two years before, was more of a University student project rather than a full feature film. For Assault on Precinct 13 Carpenter took inspiration from Rio Bravo by Howard Hawks (whom … More Assault on Precinct 13: Movie Review
The game is a 1997 film directed by the capable David Fincher with Michael Douglas as the protagonist (who gave us an exceptional performance three years before in Falling Down by J. Schumacher). I hadn’t seen this movie for almost twenty years, I re-watched it yesterday and… no, I didn’t like it. And I will be … More The Game: Movie Review
