Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead (1990)

Another great existentialist movie played perfectly by Gary Oldman and Tim Roth, perfectly on the brink of absurdism and meta-realism. Some really fun scenes as well, and overall well written. These boys might be kind of gay for each other :3

The Exterminating Angel (1962)

Sometimes funny, sometimes even horrifying. I was more entertained by the notion of not really knowing what was happening, but I still could understand the social and satirical critique of the bourgeois during Franco's dictatorship. A beautiful kind of bewilderment.

Cool World (1992) - 3/10

Nice soundtrack, but holy shit this movie is so fucking obnoxious, especially in the first half. Animated characters constantly moving, making sound, being a nuisance in the back and foreground. The plot is about as weird and nonsensical as it can be.

No Other Choice (2025) - 8/10

Crayon Shin-chan: The Adult Empire Strikes Back (2001) - 8/10

Danger Diabolik (1968) - 6.5/10

I Married a Witch (1942) - 7/10
Darkly funny and bleak like I was expecting. South Korea and Park Chan-wook keep delivering slow burning tragicomedies talking about capitalism, the pariah of low-level workers and those struggling to maintain a high life among all the desperate measures to keep afloat. Not a new subject, but a fresher one. Park's direction is something truly incredible, lots of cross-fades, transitions and quick scene changes, at times too much even for me, punctuated by one of the best cinematographies of 2025. In the photo, Lee Byung-hun is holding a heavy vase over his head, preparing to throw it under him Nostalgia is a very powerful but also extremely dangerous feeling: its warm and cozy blanket of emotions and dear memories of the past hide the necessity of returning to a time where everything seemed better, where you didn't have to worry about your future and instead live in the present, with as little worries as possible, returning to a place and period where all seemed endless. This film, a Shin-Chan film, too, manages to have some of the most well made sequences about remembrance, as the smelly odor of a shoe triggers one of the best scenes capturing the nostalgic melancholy of life before everything turned too hard to achieve and fulfill. On top of that it's also a really funny movie, with the bus chase scenes being the most hilarious one. In the picture, Shin-chan is running over a bunch of stairs, beaten and bruised, a drop of blood escaping his nose Bava's take on Diabolik is basically a heist crime played in the least straightforward way, with many comedic elements and silly, cartoonish characters, and with something reminiscent of the swinging London of the 60s. Still, it has flair, it has style, Morricone's score is chaotic and wild, so it's hard not to completely hate it or diminish its end result. In the picture, John Phillip Law is wearing a grey suit with a headgear, on his left Marisa Mell, wearing a red dress, is holding his arm. Not perfect, but perfectly enjoyable and has a lot of merits: the smoke effects were "whimsical" and definitely added some magic realism to the film (I died laughing seeing the two smokes riding a flying broom); the gags, not many, in general worked, I especially loved the recurring one of the singer at the wedding; finally, Veronica Lake exudes immense charisma with her cunty hair and her malicious eyes, and is arguably the strongest performance in the movie. In the picture, Fredric March is holding Veronica Lake on his arms, both surrounded by a thick fog.

I only got a handful and all from the same artist, so I'll just have to attach all of them because I don't see myself picking them apart and say which one is my favorite

The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle (2000) - 7/10
KPop Demon Hunters (2025) - 7.5/10
Kedi - Cats (2016) - 8/10
Actually funnier than I thought??? A few of those word puns didn't work very well, but 90% of the times they were just right, for a movie that doesn't take itself seriously, is very meta and every now and then contemporary (that residual check gag, in the era of streaming services, is oh so real), the cast was well assorted and unexpected. I get that DeNiro went in purely for the money, even tho he also produced it, but he was not a bad casting choice. Admittedly impossible to hate, it's a pretty good animated musical that caters to KPop fans and those looking for something original and new in the panorama of usual Pixar/Disney/big eyes stuff, thanks to Sony Animation delivering another little pearl. Some stuff wasn't really good, like the mouth movements when anybody talked, the animation changing from being either smooth or "choppy" like Into The Spiderverse was, and it does follow some of the classic cinematic tropes. Still, it was a fun, colorful, absolutely enjoyable experience, and the soundtrack, for someone who doesn't listen to this genre, is catchy and easy to love. Golden is such a banger of a song, too. Between the two majority domestic pets, catss always had the most fascinating and interesting role, and dogs are always the same lovable, goofy, loyal companion of man, and they've been represented in more media than their feline counterpart. So it's refreshing to watch a documentary about Istanbul's own colony of cats, roaming around the streets, living carefree with the aid of some of their most trustworthy human companions. And it's true what they say about them, it feels like they function as intermediary between us and a God, they have been messengers on Earth for centuries, often revered and idolized. While they don't care for labels, it's also funny to hear and see their behavior in public and how us humans have come to narrate and pick a story that suits their being.

Magnificent Obsession (1954) - 7/10
Cinderella the Cat (2017) - 7/10
Mind Game (2004) - 8.5/10
Blow-Up (1966) - 8/10
Typical melodrama signed Douglas Sirk, where golden boy Rock Hudson falls in love with Jane Wyman, except... unlike All That Heaven Allows I found the plot point of this film a tad bit too incredible to be taken seriously, with Jane Wyman's character going blind after an accident and Rock Hudson doing all he can to get her sight back, to the point of becoming a doctor. I prefer if this kind of film stayed on a more grounded level, instead of trying to establish and build around a very "silly" premise, after the strong first part involving Wyman's husband dying indirectly because of Hudson's behavior. It's the Cinderella fairytale at the base, but there's hints of Bioshock and Satoshi Kon' short "Magnetic Rose" sprinkled around, with all the faded and past memories acted as holograms inside the decaying ship. Very original movie, the animation works most of the times (even with echoes of very early 2000s videogames), the original dubbing might have worked better with some subtitles because of the Neapolitan accents, but it's good to see Italian animation is bringing us some good quality stuff. "Crazy" is an euphemism, cause Yuasa's film is an absurd feat of experimentation with different kinds of animation, ranging from stop-motion live action, CGI rendering and fast paced, colorful and extravagant ways the characters navigate in their charades. Filled with memorable sequences, from the meeting with God, the escape from the whale or the protagonist disarming a guy's pistol with his asscheeks. I thought I was going to mildly hate it, and towards the end I was accusing some kind of boredom, but fuck it, I dug the vibes, I liked the way it was framed and shot, it almost felt like *I* was the photographer of this film. Even if 3/4 of the movie wasn't related to the main plot (but at this point, which one is more important?), I honestly liked it quite a bit.

Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Story (2025) - 7.5/10
Can we please stop giving money to Osgood Perkins, let the man breathe a little and let him try to come up with something that's not an abstract horror with little to no payoff? This is the third movie of his that I watched and that I just can't understand why NEON is willingly financing these artsy fartsy of his, this one being his worst (but Tatiana Maslany is alright). This could be a deal breaker for me, but I'm kinda hopeful (not too much) for his next project with Nicole Kidman. Decent enough on its own, sort of a meta-tribute to Clooney's career as well (he really is the Cary Grant of our times), some nice scenes here and there, especially in the beginning with Billy Crudup and with his family. There's too much backstory between his and his friends/collaborators characters to warrant the levity and passion of this film, wished it focused more on the now more than the past. I didn't like how the story skipped around different, seemingly omitting passages between one scene to another. I did like how the first was told by Victor in a pragmatic way and in the second half by the Creature in a more humanistic, hearty way. I also noticed how Del Toro's camera never really stay still, and instead moves around the characters and places, going back and forth, slowly but noticeably. Kinda weird, tbh. As for the rest, production wise it was great, Jacob Elordi makes for a very convincing creature, the rest of the cast was kind of whatever. It'll satisfy the hearts of those looking and longing for a gothic romantic story. More "Murder She Wrote" oriented than Glass Onion, which was a kinda funny entry but also a very dumb one. I liked how Benoit Blanc wasn't really taking focus on the investigation and the bulk of the story was centered around Josh O' Connor's character. Some very nice shots here and there involving light, Glenn Close's character reminded me of Frau Blücher from Young Frankenstein.

Dìdi (2024) - 8/10

A great coming of age story that also manages to capture the vibe and aesthetic of late 2000s, with the AOL messaging (it was MSN for me), the old YouTube site, ending and renewing friendships, trying to fit with the cool guys, learning to love your mother and family.

Angel's Egg (1985)

The equivalent of a mesmerizing fever dream, a gigantic "what the fuck is the meaning of all this" but with enough artistry to bypass whatever was the intricate plot, a meticulous vision from director Mamoru Oshii with stunning animation and visuals.

The Nightingale (2018) - 6/10

Besides being essentially a rape-and-revenge movies, of which I'm not very fond of, the director of Babadook still managed to make a compelling and emotional story that also revolves around racial violence in Australia. Great performances but weak screenplay.

Bodies Bodies Bodies (2022) - 4.5/10

Sauceless and extremely forgettable whodunit that has a couple of nice things about it (Rachel Sennott is pretty funny) but ultimately wasting away something that could've had more substance to it, or something more interesting to say.

Caught Stealing (2025) - 7/10

Was expecting some kind of Guy Ritchie-esque zany crime comedy, but got surprised by how violent it is all throughout. A fun film where it looks like everybody had a good time working on it, surprised that Darren Aronosfky directed this.

Memories of Matsuko (2006) - 9/10

A maximalist tragicomedy about the life of a woman and the men who constantly wronged her. Could've used a bit of trimming in the runtime, but it goes absolutely crazy in its presentation and in the energetic performance of Miki Nakatani.

Strangers on a Train (1951) - 8.5/10

This is a film that should be talked about more than it needs to, it's very well crafted, expertly photographed with some incredible shots, has many interesting characters to sympathize with and a killer performance by Robert Walker as the sociopathic villain.

Cannibal Holocaust (1980)

More entertaining than I thought, especially in the first half where they keep it something mockumentary found footage like. The second half is just shock value and exploitation, made infamous by the real killings of various animals such as a turtle, a pig and monkeys

Helter Skelter (2012) - 8/10

"The Neon Demon" mixed with "The Substance", a descent into cosmetic-induced nightmare with incredible visuals and colors popping out in every different shades, a beautiful picture that portrays that's as artificial as the main character's life and personality.

Phenomena (1985) - 7/10

Feels like a Dario Argento movie directed by someone else, but there's enough to make it still one of his recognizable works, like the use of glass, puppets and the vibrant colors all throughout. It gets messy and confusing towards the end, but good Goblin soundtrack.

Fantasia (1940) - 10/10

My yearly rewatch of one of my favorite movies ever. I just noticed how stereotyped some of the flowers in the second segment are. The Pastoral Symphony is my least favorite of them all, on the contrary the Night on Bald Mountain and Ave Maria segment still rips.
