J'accuse (2019)
What a superb film!
This film is superb in every aspect of it - script, the cast, acting, decorations, camera work, everything is just perfect. Polanski is a skilful master.
I would highly recommend this movie.
Death to 2020 (2020)
Fantastic satire
This is a great movie after a pretty terrible year.
They take no hostages - whether you're left, right, greenie, an average Joe, be sure you will be mocked ruthlessly and it is a great thing.
All jokes are to the point and it is so refreshing to see a movie that doesn't take political sides.
Yeah, and don't read negative reviews, it's funny. If these people got offended/hurt, it means satire worked as intended.
Jojo Rabbit (2019)
Great acting but utterly inappropriate
Enjoyed the acting, especially, kids.
However, at its core, the movie is very shallow and, dare I say, dangerous. The danger is for the younger generation that is going to watch it - they do t really know anything about the war in which 50 million people perished and by watching this they will get a completely wrong idea. Yes, I get it, it's not a historical movie, yet it is what our kids are more likely to see, instead of picking up a book or watching documentaries.
And Jojo Rabbit trivialises nazism, making it look rather like a pathetic joke instead of tragic, violent, brutal and extremely dangerous.
It mocks German language, linking Nazis to the German accent, where there is very little need for it.
And, to top it up, Russian army is presented as villains executing prisoners of war, including little kids, American army is presented in an extremely positive light, twisting the history.
No wonder several public officials claimed its allies and not Red Army liberated Auschwitz. That's exactly the issues I've got with this film and other films that choose to turn the most devastating war into a laughing matter.
Obychnaya zhenshchina (2018)
A wonderful TV series with an insight on modern Russia.
It's a series about modern Russia, corruption, cynicism of people who have accustomed to the surrounding environment in order to survive.
It's a tragedy about women of all walks of life but a tragedy not without humour.
Great acting by pretty much everyone in the film makes it that much better to watch. I enjoyed it thoroughly, highly recommended!
La haine (1995)
This film hasn't aged a second in over two decades
Brilliant performance by the acting crew, especially Vincent Cassel, captivating story and unbelievable realism, true to the core. This movie is a masterpiece.
