Perfect Days (2023)
Great composition
Japanese culture seems to be predetermined to use as a stage.
The movie plays with all aspects of life and covers these topics with a lightness, nostalgia, melancholy and grace that is rarely seen in movies today.
Detailed and subtle in storytelling, melody and visuals.
Authentic characters and depiction of everyday microcosms - like a picture - every moment is cherished and used as a potential element to
build and develop characters.
The open endings and hinted subplots add to the overall piece and make it soothing to watch.
It's been quite some time I have seen such an opus - Wenders is getting even more romantic in his golden years.
True Detective: Night Finds You (2015)
Plot, acting are spot on but the science behind it :(
That last scene IMO blew it.
That shotgun was fired 2 times, once from let's estimate generous 4 meters distance and once point-blank (about half a meter distance) into the lower abdominal region. How on earth is Ray still alive, the internal hemorrhaging alone would have slowly killed him and why would a killer leave a witness behind - this scene just makes no sense at all.
This lack of detail really didn't fit
Star Trek: The Next Generation: Violations (1992)
As an addition
I recently re watched the series and I've never noticed any major flaws in TNG from a scientific point of view but at the beginning of this episode, Data asks Geordi why humans are incoherent in recollecting their memory and goes on delivering an explanation on how the human brain stores information. He mentions storing memories as RNA, which is so far from reality, it makes one question the scientific motivation of the writers. This explanation is just so wrong, and it so strongly contrasts with Data's abilities as an impeccable android that it made this episode below average.
Idiocracy (2006)
Best extrapolating documentary
Like the documentaries Waterworld, Dr Strangelove, or Mad Max, this visionary piece of art is a great example of directors with a gut feeling for the realism and plausible development of the human species.
It certainly lacks proof of concept but will be seen as a true classic in many centuries.
The simplistic depiction will make this one of the masterpieces for future film students who want to major in science fiction movies with a blunt and naive way to approach the viewer. Although my intellectual expectations weren't very high, I was thoroughly baffled by the eloquent scripting which was stringent from start to finish.
I feel grateful to say that I more than happy to bow before this kind of creativity and wit.
