Don't Look Up (2021)
8/10
Too long
21 August 2023
Warning: Spoilers
That's a clever satire but as usual it seems the planet must always rely on USA to be saved as there were no other space capable powers like EU, Russia, India, China, Pakistan, etc. As if Russia would have waited for the last moment and as if it had put all the eggs in the same basket. Also the landing on a new planet, despite the metaphorical aspects (Adam and Eve) and the comic demise of "Donald with skirts", is a complete scientific nonsense as if a landing wouldn't be preceded by probes to assert minimal survival conditions. Finally portraying the president as a female Donald was hilarious and if there were any doubts up until then they vanished when her son, her chief of staff, said about her, "if she wasn't my mother...".

When they want to go farther...
2 October 2020
This is what happens when someone picks a good sci-fi book series, makes a TV show and then realizes the material is finite... This series should have ended when the author ended the story and it would have been one of the best sci-fi TV series... It didn't happen... Disappointing...

Much ado about the Morgans
4 February 2010
I've read so many critics trashing down this movie that I felt the need to come on its defense. I've seen it just a hour ago and for me it gave me what I was hoping to receive: after a tiring working day, traveling around in the rain, and not having time to lunch, I've stopped for dinner and between the Morgans and Mandela (Invictus) I went and bought a ticket for that romantic comedy. I don't understand how people can be so demanding about the genre. Everybody knows how a romantic comedy ends. It's not the story that matters and although I find Grant and Parker an unlikely match, they made me laugh and that was what I needed. "It's so quiet here I can hear my cells dividing". For that and a little bit more it was a pleasant experience, not so happy as Disneyland, though.
