Anna (2022)
A breath of fresh air in Korean dramas!!
Finally a drama not about a guy and a girl falling in love through the course of 16 episodes, not about some funny jokes and funny songs and the same repeatitive vibe but a story of how cruel the world can be and how much it can affect people. I left watching korean dramas because they were becoming some how very predictable and repeatitive but squid game brought me back and now that i have watched this drama, i am getting hopeful. The drama has its weaknesses and can be a little predictable sometimes but it is elevated with a first class acting by Suzy who succeeds in giving soul and complexity to her character, this does not mean the rest of the cast wasn't amazing, cinematography is on point, directing is good, editing could have been better, But overall while i would have given this an 8 on normal circumstance, i will give it a 10 just because i appreciate the change and seriousness in this drama compared to other k dramas.
CODA (2021)
Excellently made!!
A movie that encourages you to pursue your dream, no matter what. Bolstered by great performances of the whole cast, and a well-organized story, CODA succeeds in delievering an emotional and heartwarming ride.
Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
Entertaining!!!
One of the most anticipated movies in recent years, no way home is certainly an enjoyable ride, especially for those who grew up watching all spider man movies starting with Sam Raimi and ending with Tom holland's version. Plot is good, but it could have been better, like Strange being outsmarted by parker in a world that he is in control of and even if he was outsmarted, he should have been out of there soon where in movie, he is trapped there for a large amount of time, and there were some other inconsistencies too, but it does not matter. Overall a great movie and worth your time.
Game of Thrones (2011)
A tremendous amount of Potential wasted!!
Well-written, great acted, perfectly casted, and combined with rich and vivid characters and a world building only bested by Middle earth, Game of thrones had all the aspects and substances neccessary for a grand and ambitious craft. The first 4 seasons are some of the best TV has to offer, if only the subsequent seasons could have been as good as the first 4, we would now witness a perfection that could have the ability to outdone even Breaking Bad. The potential, and the ambition that this serious showed were unimaginable. Unfortunately, two dumb and uneducated piece of sh**s, who had no idea what storytelling is were assigned to produced the show, and ignoring the huge masterpiece that is A song of ice and fire, they decided they were done with game of thrones, and gave us two seasons of rushed episodes, crazy character choices, nonsense character development, and completely butchered this great work of art. Nevertheless, it is a rollercoaster ride of high adrenaline, fear, love and sorrow and the greatness of the first 4 seasons are more than enough to cement its status as one of the greats of TV.
Forrest Gump (1994)
Forest gump: A perfect balance between Comedy and Drama!!
A very well-organized movie, Hanks finds himself in the role of Forest Gump, a man with the IQ of 75. Though, this disablity does not inhibit him from having some dramatic adventures as well as becoming a national and famous face. Acting is ok, Hanks delievered a fine performance, deserved best actor award, but one issue in movie is that there are some inaccuracies for a film that have connections with some historical events. But overall, the movie does almost everything right while also maintaing to have a good pace throughout the movie, directing is good, and you will have some great chuckles as well as some other times failing to not get emotional.
The Green Mile (1999)
A powerful explanation of injustice and cruelty!!
Although a bit too long, the movie takes you on a emotional ride from start to finish, with the last sequence of movie hearthbreaking. If you don't want to cry you better leave this movie for some other time. Tom Hanks is (as always) great, and the supporting actors aren't bad either. But, the movie isn't flawless, pacing is not good, there are some plotholes, and some times the movie can be boring. Otherwise, green mile is a movie you should watch, at least once, to experience the emotions and find a greater perspective of men's cruelty to world and to each other.
Saving Private Ryan (1998)
Another gem by spielberg!!
Brutal, honest, captivating, revolutionary, saving private Ryan has more than enough positives to make it a classic. A war couldn't be represented in a more honest way. Nowadays action movies all lack what made saving private Ryan good cinema while also being a great war movie: the characters and their interactions and their motives. The best part of the movie isn't war sequences(although they are some of the best war sequences i've seen), it was that calm and subtle moments of dialogue and revealations that made the movie so great and astonishing, nowaday action movies don't get that.
Schindler's List (1993)
Strangely Powerful!!
The movie highlights the power of one individual and how can it make a difference. Best sequence of movie is the climax at the end, but that doesn't mean the other parts of movie isn't good. Spielberg has created a masterpiece that radiates hope while all that happens in the movie is destruction, a movie about the mistakes of men and its regrets. A terrifying villain and Liam neeson's flawless performance are some other aspects elevating this movie.
The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
Life changing!
For a movie shot entirely in prison where there is no hope at all, shawshank redemption's main massage and purpose is to remind us of hope, that even in the darkest places hope exists, and only needs someone to find it. Combine this message with a brilliant screenplay, lovely characters and Martin freeman, and you get a movie that can teach you a lesson everytime you watch it. An all time Classic!!!
Get Out (2017)
A modern classic!!!
Peele's directional debute is one that any other director hopes to achieve. With a Superb screenplay, brilliant acting, and some shocking twists, here comes a movie that gets as disturbing and terrifying as a horror movie can get and i am not forgetting Hitchcock's Psycho.
La La Land (2016)
Ramance at its finest!!
Blending musical and romance genre, la la land is a movie that captivates you with its directing, script, acting and Of course music. It can also be an inspirational movie. Movie is the best in the genre i have seen, avoiding repeated romance traits and defining the meaning of love in its run. The sweetness of being together with your loved one and at same time the sorrow of getting apart are Greatly highlited in movie. That being said, the film drags a bit in its middles, like it is lost but it finds its way one way or another and it is not a big issue. Overall an enjoyable rollarcoaster of human emotions and a great movie.
Breaking Bad (2008)
Fantastic TV!!
Unpredictable, exciting, well-acted and well crafted, Breaking bad is the gold standard in Television achievement. Every single episode has a word to say and there are small deatils and forshadowing in earlier seasons you will only notice after you finished. You might get bored in earlier seasons, but Believe me it will be all worth it. Character development is the biggest strenght of Breaking bad, of course but other aspects are well done too. So if you haven't watched this show, stop wasting time and start binging the show and when it finishes, you have experienced an adventure you can rarely find an equivalent or similar one.
Mass Effect 2 (2010)
Magnificent, Brilliant video game!!
One of the best adventures in gaming, Mass effect 2 is a perfectly-crafted game that amazes you with its characters, plot twists, enjoyable game play. You would be wise to choose carefully because There WILL be consequences and the fate of the galaxy depends on you, and That final mission is as epic as a mission can get, a climax that is very well developed and it does pay off.
Gisaengchung (2019)
Breathtaking, Extraordinary and UNIQUE!!
A movie demonstrating different classes in society, accompanied with great acting, an original plot and beautiful cinematography, if you want a movie that you can find new things and hidden meanings everytime you rewatch, Parasite is THE movie you want, certainly one of the best movies of last decade and completely deserved all single awards it won.
Game of Thrones: The Rains of Castamere (2013)
UNFORGETTABLE!!!
It will remembered for ages for the SHOCK it delivered..
