The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)
A Hollywood salad of visual effects
The movie is a huge miss and a disappointment beyond words. Story, nope. Dialogue, nope. Funny, nope. Fun, not besides seeing the characters we all love. It's just a salad of screaming, explosions, slow mo, racing, camera angles. Can you do a Super Mario movie without explosions? Probably not. Do you have to do one only with explosions? Definitely not. Waste of time for nostalgic adults, and definitely not what i want my kids to remember Super Mario for. Whatever reminds you of the good things about Super Mario is inserted just so you can't say it's not there, beyond amateur and kitsch........
Valea Mutã (2016)
What happened to the acting?
There is nothing, nothing that comes remotely close to the poor acting in this movie. It could easily get 7-8 stars if it wasn't for the acting.
Almost everyone is stiff. Nobody talks Romanian like this. There are two scenes when the characters should be raging with anger, and yet the actors are zen-calm, no fluctuation in their voice and only tense their facial muscles as if they are enacting their characters via animojis.
Overall the tv show has a good premise, even if it's a remake of Eyewitness (Norwegian), but the actors just do not deliver. At all. If this was a graduation test for acting school, 9 out of 10 should fail.
An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power (2017)
Everyone should watch this. 1h38m of pure wake up call, people!
Like many other reviews, I also felt compelled to write a review because of all the one-star flooding of reviews that make no sense - this one was not better than The Inconvenient Truth, thus 1-star; this one was about Gore, thus 1-star; etc.
Topic-wise, the climate crisis is real, and it's the worst crisis humanity has to deal with in modern times. The math is simple: there is no winning side in this crisis. Despite this, narrow-minded money-driven individuals and groups of individuals around the world are pushing for propaganda about how this is not real, or if it's real then it's not man-made, or if it's real and man-made then it's too big of a phenomena to stop, and even if we could stop it or slow it down the developing world needs couldn't care because they need 150y to catch up to where US is today (zero logic).
Filming-wise, this documentary keeps you connected through out. There's no repetition, there's no reiteration from The Inconvenient Truth, there's no "listen to me or we will all die", there's no "we will all die" as there are lots of hopeful interventions, having similarities with Hans Rosling's talks.
For Canadians, there's even a top-notch reply from their Justin Trudeau. I'm not talking about him as the Canadian prime-minister in Canada, but as the Canadian prime-minister in the world's eyes --- you can count on one hand the number of state politicians that will reply in a split second to "thank you for the change you're bringing about" with "it's the Canadians, not me, but thank you".
