Thursday Movie Picks: Movies Adapted from Movies of a Different LanguageAlright, this week I’ve outdone myself! The thing is, I’ve seen almost every movie listed here with the exception of one. Not impressed yet? Well, I’m listing 6 movies, the original and the adaptation. Which is quite the achievement for me, as I rarely look for non-English movies and tend to go for the adaptations. Not for this list though!…
This week’s theme is wonderful. It’s so specific yet there are so many theme within themes to pick from! Do I go for the good old love letter route or something else? Well, keep reading, and find out for yourself.…
We are almost half way through 2019 and, to be honest, besides Endgame and an Estonian film, the movies have been a little underwhelming. At least the ones I’ve seen, which is not many, less than 20. Shazam wasn’t bad either but like I said, nothing but the two I mentioned have blown me away. Which is why I’m looking forward to these five movies and hoping that all of them will blow me away!…
There is so much violence in the world, which we get to witness on a day to day basis. We see the gruesome imagery on television, images that aren’t just fiction but also reality. Violence is, and always will be, part of humanity. If you’re looking for those images in Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil & Vile, you will be disappointed. Because this film focuses not on the violence, but the man the violence hides behind.…
Thursday Movie Picks: Movies You Have a Different Opinion After RewatchI really really love this week’s theme! Because I love the idea of how time can change our perspective and our view on something. For this week, there are two ways to go, movies we loved but disliked after a rewatch, or movies you hated and ended up loving after a rewatch. Or maybe there’s a third option? Find out which way I went with it.…
Alright, so before this morning I had a plan for this post but since time’s not my friend today, I’m keeping it simple. Here are my three recommendations that are movies, not based, but inspired by real life serial killers. Which is why Zodiac is not in this list because let’s be honest, that would be THE recommendation this week otherwise.…
There are actually quite a few shows that came to mind this week in relation to music. But the frustrating part is the fact that I mentioned most of them in this TMP Television Edition post. So instead, I had to narrow it down.. way way down… to a single musical episode or a moment! Because there’s nothing better than a surprise musical episode/moment in a non-musical show. And I bet half of you already know at least one of…
This year I’ve been especially out of the box with some themes and this week won’t be any different. Today I’m going to look at an interview as an important part of the process of making a film. More specifically, a documentary! Because a good documentary is all about interviewing and telling a complex story, where a single interview could change the balance and the perception of the documentary itself.…
With the success of Get Out under his belt, Jordan Peele had to bring it for his second time around. All our expectations were high. And the trailer got us all excited! The pressure built, the movie premiered and it ended up being a little disappointing. At the end of the day I wish Peele took a bit more time off to execute this idea of his. Because Us is rushed, predictable and a little unpolished around the edges.…
