Spaceman (I) (2024)

What is the f...ing point to go there! I loved this film

[9/10 · 5 March 2024]

Finally, a film that didn't follow the USA vs. Russia script of space stories. Even though at the beginning I wasn't really keen on the spider, by the end I found a very deep connection and meaning behind it.

But what I love most about this story is that it makes a very important point about the waste of time and resources in space exploration. What is the point, really? A race of egos and toxic power? The idea that some people want to explore beyond the impossible when we have no clue who we are and what we really want. To reach the limit where we can't literally live and are close to losing life, just to realize what we are destroying. What a beautiful message. I really enjoyed this film.

Also Mr Richter made another beautiful work for a very enjoyable visual experience.

Super League: The War for Football (2023)

Good overview of what happened

[9/10 · 16 January 2023]

It might feel biased towards some of the actors in the big story and regardless the fact that UEFA is not perfect and have actually many issues the reality is clear and the ESL is a very dodgy project which only interest is to rescue the unsustainable business model of three clubs. The series is very good fun to watch, it has lots of drama and reveal details that where not available in the media during the car crash. And at the end it just shows how greedy the whole football institution is around the world. This is no about the game, this is not about the community. It is a power game but I personally I much rather be on Uefa's side than on the corrupt Mr perez.

Euphoria: Trying to Get to Heaven Before They Close the Door (2022) Season 2, Episode 1

WOW!!

[10/10 · 10 January 2022]

That was a great starting! The photography and the lighting just killed it. A show made with love.

This was an intense piece of beautifully crafted cinematography group of sequences that keep me on my chair for the whole hour.

The Line (2021)

Good documentary

[8/10 · 14 December 2021]

Very interesting story, it shows the real face of the American industrial war machine. A bunch of ignorant psychopaths that have helped to destroy the social fabric of another country for "fun". The only difference between Isis and the navy Seals is the colour of their skin and the all milkshakes the American have had and made them fatter. Good story that cover into the intimate mindset of the right wing of the American army. Very sad to see how an adult man is proud to kill a 17 years old for being a terrorist but at the same time how dumb and incapable to rationalise that the last 10 years of that kid were seeing Americans killing their people in a war that time goes on has been proved to be illegal and useless. At least for me it is a great pleasure to see the implosion of America and its "democratic" system the last 5 years.

Physical (2021–2023)

Just watch it!

I just finished it and it was a great show! Very much enjoyed it. It is a hidden gem, dark and funny and the soundtrack is a killer!!

The North Water (2021)

Cold and dark

[8/10 · 12 September 2021]

This is the kind of show that help to enjoy the events that are destroying humankind. Mr Farrell again in great performance of the try face of many people in this planet, yesterday, today and in the very dark, cold and nasty future.

The Midnight Sky (2020)

Feel very sorry for K23

[9/10 · 26 December 2020]

Regardless the scientific inaccuracies it is a great film, the concept and sets were visually interesting, I think it has a point but again looks like people keep waiting for fairy tales of superheroes saving a hopeless civilization. I feel very sorry for any other planet that end up with us.

Tenet (2020)

Great film

[9/10 · 27 August 2020]

Although the first 45min are quite hard to follow the whole thing is a great entertainment. In my opinion there is not way you can get bored, there are lots of details and mini plots that you notice at the beginning and beautifully reveal right after half way. Great film I definitely will watch again. My only observation is with the sound. There are times that is really hard to follow the conversations ( I don't want to spoil but another viewers understand) I think it would be great to have subtitles.

Uncut Gems (2019)

Brilliant

[10/10 · 7 February 2020]

This is not a film for everyone. Bloody amazingly intense. Such a good film I very much enjoyed it.

Adam is phenomenal.
