One of the most didactic video game games I've ever played. The experience is very expressive, and made me understand much more than I thought about our legacy. Like the "Scarface" game, thid made me a little disturbed by everything I had to do if I wanted to move forward, like invading a place and fighting for that place as if it were mine. Of course, there are many teen games that also work with this argument, but the script much more serious, accompanied by a visual with "lifeless" colors, makes this an impactful work in all aspects. Technically, I can also talk about the sound: the dubbing and the original score give a spectacle, leaving a much greater immersion. A great thing for this type of game.

Scarface: The World Is Yours
(2006 Video Game)
Experiencing a difficult time
30 January 2021
The gameplay of this game is basic and nothing innovative. But what makes it a masterpiece is the difficulty, and how quickly it becomes boring, making these as the game's main pretensions. You live like a drug dealer, you kill and "die" several times, and you are transphobic without retaliation.
In the film, you see yourself watching a man who rise from suffering, becoming an unpleasant person. In the game I think a little bit like him, which further increased my contempt for the character.
A "scarface" always says something. And that is never good, for either side.

Was fun.

I do not like the recent Nickelodeon shows, but my brother likes it, and I ended up paying some attention to it because of Kel Mitchell, who is really fun. I saw the last episode now, and I liked this open ending. Not as clever as in The Sopranos, but ... I even appreciate the end of My Wife and Kids, a comedy series whose majority wanted more. I always thought that the final phrase spoke of the series itself, and of all the difficult situations dealt with in a cheerful way by the characters. You've spent years getting to know these characters. You know what their attitudes will be.
Castle Freak
(1995 Video)
Trauma and darkness...
2 August 2018
Giorgio, the villain of "Castle Freak", is a man who has been mistreated by his own mother since childhood, after it was abandoned by the subject's father. It's not like those disposable characters we see in most horror movies. His only knowledge is darkness and pain. He does not seem prepared for the world, and therefore behaves and feels like an animal. The dark sequences were very well filmed, and the soundtrack is shivering. On the other hand, the script is well written, though the argument seems cliché. A castle is inherited by a family, who decides to spend time in the place. But there is more to it. It's a family that's going through a serious problem. John made decisions in his life that end up shaking the people he loves. There is tension inside that castle before Giorgio's appearance. We see a family drama mixed with horror, and these two genres walk so well that it becomes uncomfortable! If it were not for some "dumb-bells" of certain characters, this movie would be a masterpiece, of that no doubt!
