Restored my faith in anime
Just when I thought anime was just not for me, along comes this gorgeously drawn, well acted, cool, brutal and absolutely kick ass anime. It's use of music is also quite fresh.Resurrection

Great actors, story and weirdness.
Rebecca Hall once again carries this neat little mystery/horror puzzler with strides. It's all done very tastefully, acted beautifully, and some tasty absurdity is gives you something to ponder on.Joker

Exactly what Joker's origin story deserves
It's done right. You can feel the man sliding off, the transformation is plausible and understandable, it's not simplistic right and wrong, and I sympathized with him. The movie also features beautifully lit scenery and of course world class acting.Soft & Quiet

A gutpunch
Unaware what this would be about, I was quite shocked as it slowly unfolded from bad into worse. The staging and acting is impressive, and becomes even more intense and haunting by the single take in which it all occurs.Django Unchained

Up with Tarantino's standards and trademak style
A bold, daring and violent way to address slavery, full of Tarantino-style endless chit-chat and under-the-skin tension that somehow keeps you on the edge of your seat. I thought Django himself was overshadowed and flat, but then again I am not a big fan of Foxx.Inside Out

Unique, emotional, courageous and wonderful
One of the most unique, brave and original movies ever to come out of a major animation studio. A collage of symbolism en abstractions that is still child-friendly and a great experience. It made me cry as well, which I needed to hide from popcorn munching kiddies all around me in the theater.The Eyes of my Mother
When her mother is killed during a home invasion, the daughter grows up isolated to develop increasingly strange and sadastic ways

Not for everyone perhaps, a delicacy
It has a unique atmosphere that is dark, sad and macabre, even of the blood won't show red in the black and white execution.Alpha

Beautiful and heartfelt
I like to think of this as perhaps the first domestication of wolfs, eventually leading to dog breeds. Extremely pretty, akin towards kitsch, but never crossing that line. The storyline is also gripping, making me care about this journey and swallowing tears near the end.Birdman
A former action film hero wants to be recognised as serious actor in his own broadway play, meanwhile his world seems to be falling apart

Quiet something
A unique movie displaying a wealth of class-A acting by the entire cast, together with amazing camerawork literally floating through the clever script, backup up a great musical score.RockmeNow

Surrealistic flight with the birdman
This movie balances on the ambiguous line between arthouse and mainstream films. Surrealistic and flatout weird at times, but also insightfull, captivating and refreshing. I enjoyed this movie, to my own surprise :)The Impossible

Terrifying and heart shattering
A terrifying and heart shattering experience throughout. Very well done, although maybe a little over eager to bring the viewer to tears.... but goodness did they succeed!Movies found: 1040 | max movies per page: 10 | Showing: 71 - 80
