The Edge of Seventeen (2016)
It is not about the details, the idea it is quite common
I'd say it deserves 8.6, since that it is closer to 9, I am gonna rate with 9.
First, a very big up for Harrleson and Hailey Steinfield, wonderful.
This movie describes exactly the society that exists, and what most of the teenagers go through. Most of these things won't matter to you when you're adult, but you should not understand the impact that these things have on teenagers.
A good portraits on how teenagers think that things happens only to them, how eager they are to show interest on people that despise them, and how they really push away those who take care. I'd say this movie it is not about the details in cinematography, it is about the story and message that gives to the audience!
House of the Dragon (2022)
Good, but why all this rush?
I am still halfway to season 1, and too far from the end of the series, so I might change my review later, but the impression for the moment is this.
That being said, I know thatthey may elaborate lots of things through the show, BUT, the show is very rushed!
This show should follow GoT, and what made GoT great was the complexity, the details on characters actions to achieve a goal, and when they did the climax, you felt it! They dedicated a whole episode to Battle on the wall, a whole episode for Hardhome, and Battle of the Blackwater bay. They let you feel the rythm and made you part of the story!
I got to be honest I did not read Fire and Blood, but I read The World of Ice and Fire, and it was a brief story of Dance of Dragons, also read some stuff and reviews on internet and that's all. But I knew the meanin of the show right from the beginning, and I was eager to know the details of this story. But yet, in just one episode they bury Laena, Aemond rides Vhgar, lost his eye, Rhaneyra makes a plot on Laenor, he "dies", came back, etc. It is not that you cannot follow the story, but you can't feel it. And the characters, hope I will change my mind but Emma Darcy and Olivia Cooke doesn't seem to fit into these roles!
It is hard to create something that is always going to be compared to one of the greatest tv show ever, but the dedication and the budget of this tv show should've been used more carefully.
If GoT were to be created like this, Robb's war would've lasted only for 3 episodes.
The Queen's Gambit (2020)
Marvelous
I read some review before I decided to watch it, and I knew it would be good. But damn, I am impressed! This was perfect from the first minute, Anya Taylor-Joy did a very good job here.
Even though it was a mini series (which I finished in 2 days), there were so many things elaborated that it gave me the feeling that I watched 15 episodes.
As a person who likes chess, I really felt every emotion in this movie. One of the best parts of the series, the connection of Beth with Shaibel!
I don't use 10 very often, but this show exceeded my expectations!
On the Ropes (2018)
Prototype of "How not to do a movie"
Well, at least I think the main characters are good at fighting. But dude, you need to act, that is what it takes to make a film. Probably this is one of the worst acting I ever seen!! You remmember those bollywood movies.... yeah that's it!
You wasted enough time reading this review, now go find another movie to watch, but not this one.
Sorry movie makers, next time you should try better
