There are films that even before appearing or showing in cinemas, manage to arouse the anger and rage of certain people, especially radical religious groups. Such is the case with this film by Milos Forman, which attracted the main character's attention, but also with promotional posters depicting the main...
The vast majority of people think that Stanley Kubrick is, if not the best, then definitely one of the best film professionals of all time, which is of course quite justified when we look back and remember under what masterful titles his name is signed. What has always bothered...
Oscar winner Sofia Coppola has always stood out with specific films that are more in favor of the female part of the audience, but which also have an interesting and artistic character. This latest project of hers stands out from what we are used to from it, primarily because...
Director Darren Aronofsky became known to the general public in 2010 when he filmed the mysterious drama Black Swan that earned him an Oscar nomination. His projects are specific in that they have a small budget, but with their quality they break the box office. However, even he did...
This time we return to the further past of cinema, more precisely to 1957 and the film "12 Angry Men", i.e. "12 Angry People", also often called "Jury" in our country. This moment had to come when we will finally deal with this film, for the simple reason that...
When we mention the most complex directors, the name of David Lynch will always be at the top. I would characterize his film complexity as very high quality, and above all very characteristic (original), and very often symbolic and metaphorical. Such is this film, which contains perhaps the highest...
We have already written about one of Almodóvar's films, the most recent from 2011 - the horror thriller drama - The Skin I Live In. This time I decided to review this film, his ID card, in my opinion. The film is from 1991, purely to compare the time...
The 2009 Academy Awards were held, among others, in the name of this great drama by Gus Van Sant, which was nominated in eight categories. This is a true biographical drama about the life of Harvey Milk, the first gay politician who publicly fought (and fought for) the rights...
This project is an adaptation of the book "Moneyball" by Michael Lewis, which was made according to true events. This is not a typical biographical drama in which it is almost always played on the card of pathos, but everything is simply set and it is up to the...
Films on the topic of drug addiction are usually with a similar plot: the main character starts using drugs out of curiosity and to have fun, then acquires physical and mental tolerance and finally ends up in a closed circle of hell in which he engages in crime or...
Michael Mann, with the help of screenwriter Eric Roth and a great selection of actors, created a truly phenomenal thriller-drama based on true events, on one of the biggest business-corporate scandals and conspiracies. Also, the film belongs to the domain of biographical drama, a genre very dear to me,...
Reading the hymns about this project and watching the trailer, I was expecting a top art-house movie reminiscent of a very good Drive. Basically, I didn't make much of a mistake, but I admit that I set too high expectations, which were not met after watching the film.
The film...
Based on the fact that this film was nominated for as many as six Oscars and the fact that Jason Reitman, the author of the esteemed Juno and Thank You For Smoking, is also in charge of this project, I decided to watch this film. I was expecting an...
Paul Thomas Anderson is an author whose films generally do not appeal to a wider audience. Anderson belongs to a handful of those mainstream directors whose works do not garner huge commercial success, but try to offer something different, something special, something that does not fall into the circle...
There are few series in our lives that are worth every second of our time, that burst with originality, idea, quality and that leave you breathless, keep you constantly tense and that you will never forget. Such are, for example: Sopranos, X Files, Oz, and they are certainly joined...
One of the most pleasant film surprises in 2011 is definitely this great sports drama by Gavin O’Connor, who has a great Pride and Glory behind him, but for whom sports dramas are definitely a specialty and a passion. Miracle, one of, in my opinion, the best sports dramas...
This project by popular Canadian director Denis Villeneuve, who specializes in making films on the subject of human drama, was nominated for an Oscar in 2009 in the category of best foreign films. The award was then taken by the Danish representative In Better World, but a large number...
Kevin Spacey is a man who, with his undeniable acting qualities and spontaneous charisma, manages to enrich every project in which he takes part. Performing on his recent works, I came across this film, which did not go very well with either the audience or the critics, but I...
