This French historical drama is worth a watch. The men settle their honour by duelling each other with swords or pistols, and the acting is dominated by fencing master Roschdy Zem, who plays a very likeable character. It's got attractive visuals, strong themes like honour, pride and feminism, interesting dueling rules…

The story from an unreliable narrator, a double agent, full of deceit and uncertainty. Hoa Xuande is the discovery of the year, an utterly convincing performance from a chameleon you root for despite his moral failings. He's overshadowed only by the multi-role Robert Downey Jr. and he's a little different every time,…

The first episode with the series' Julia Pennyworth. Casting Christina Wolfe was a classic whitewashing drama because in the comics she's the dark-skinned daughter of Batman's butler Alfred and Mademoiselle Marie (but only since 2014). Originally, everyone was white, and Julia started as Julia Remarque, whose…

A film that offers some impressive moments, but as a whole it mostly skims the surface. It deals with a few key themes, but it is mostly too thesis-like and one-dimensional. A raging America where we get no introduction and a miserable, rushed conclusion. Jesse Plemons steals for himself what is undoubtedly the film's…

It’s too colourful, too CGI-laden, and Jennifer Lopez runs around with her big ass at the beginning and admits in one of the dialogues that she has wrinkles and covers her grey hair because nobody gets younger, and for that she gets my nod because her Botox colleagues in the industry probably see it differently. You…

Yorgos Lanthimos est l’un des réalisateurs les plus originaux de notre époque et son œuvre non conventionnelle divertit, choque et divise le public en deux camps. Je suis une grande fan de son récent Pauvres créatures et probablement moins de Kinds of Kindness. J’aime beaucoup le concept de trois histoires différentes…

Vingt Dieux est le premier long métrage, à mon avis très réussi, de la réalisatrice Louise Courvoisier, qui nous plonge dans l’environnement dont elle est elle-même issue. Il dépeint la vie ordinaire de jeunes agriculteurs, d’adolescents et les soucis auxquels ils doivent faire face tous les jours, qu’il s’agisse des…

Touda est une chanteuse courageuse, pleine de principes et surtout très talentueuse, qui aspire à une vie meilleure pour elle et pour son fils. Dans une petite ville, elle est confrontée à la méchanceté, à l’impolitesse, au harcèlement et à l’humiliation. Elle rêve de gagner l’admiration et le respect dans une grande…

They just don't make them like that anymore. The 1980s had their unmistakable charm thanks to the collapse of the floodgates that had held back decadent creativity, which in turn brought a boom to the video market. In the seventies, it was still necessary for films to attract viewers to cinemas, so every effort was…

Though this short parody of Romero’s classic basically only has one idea, it is necessary to acknowledge its makers’ feel for comedic timing and imaginative shot composition, thanks to which the varying of a single joke over the course of eight minutes remains not only bearable, but even refreshingly absurd.
