Vortex (2021)
Noé strikes with another disturbance, this time mixed with inevitability and despair.
Vortex is about a crucial element of life, an element which is just certain as being born if there is life at least for us humans in the year of 2023, ageing its wing man death. While watching Vortex i felt helpless, that i cannot runaway from the inevitable, sooner or later i will have to face it, i wanted to hug my own mother and even though i do not like the concept of thankfulness, i have felt thankful for the conditions of my senior relatives. However, Vortex is not a pessimistic or a depressing movie, also it does not aim to inject the idea of thankfulness to its viewers. It simply demonstrates ending part of the cycle of life within a small French family.
Citizen Kane (1941)
I'm not able to endure it in 2021
As a film lover, after the end of the one and only, the greatest, the magnificent CITIZEN KANE i thought to myself '' something is wrong with me, maybe i should give it another chance after all it is the greatest movie ever right? But, i just cannot, it is a painful process. Everyone is congratulating the technical stunts of this movie, the special lenses which are produced only for the CITIZEN KANE and i get it since it is 1941 and i am sure it was very impressive at the time but in 2021 i could not share the same idea as other people, i cannot look at CITIZEN KANE from the perspectives of the old timers. As for the plot and the ''Rose Bud'' thing, i just cannot find them interesting, a powerful, rich man which people and even his wife says that he just gets what he wants, he does not value anything is actually an ''emotional'' man which still keeps his old sled ''Rose Bud'' as for his mothers love and memory, that is just cute. My soul left my body while watching it, i am sorry.
Relatos salvajes (2014)
''Wild Tales'' The Ballad of Buster Scruggs should've learn from it.
What The Ballad of Buster Scruggs did wrong, this one does right. Enjoyable, interesting and ''wild'' short stories with ups and downs from one to another. My favourite ones are the first one ''Gabriel Pasternak'' and the road fight between the ''Audi guy'' and the ''Redneck''. Overall a fun movie to watch, totally recommended. 8/10
It's Such a Beautiful Day (2012)
Existential Crisis, Memories Shattered into pieces, a Stoic depression even, Brilliant.
One of the best ways you can spend your precious 1 hour. Great, simplistic art style with good sound FX, in no way gets boring or lose its pace, definitely worth to watch.
Makes the audience constantly think about nearly every sentence, The stick man style and whats is being told in the story of the movie contradicts and it left me in an odd situation, i felt ''these subjects that the movie works on are way too serious and harsh for a movie with this simplistic art, it is awesome. Simple joys of life, a dark past, Schizophrenia and Alzheimer ( concept of reality and time getting destroyed) and in finale scene in just 3-4 minutes of time a huge question about life is answered. 9/10 could've been a 10 out of 10 with some minor changed or add-ups.
Seul contre tous (1998)
Unexpected, Disturbing, Powerful Comments on Modern Life.
This is NOT your average "movie night with the family" movie, therefore i would not suggest "I Stand Alone" to anyone without an "Open" mindset. Gaspar noé gives us a fast paced, disturbing yet intriguing movie with very rich comments about real-life concepts such as: morality, equality, freedom, fullfiling desires, existantial crisis. I Stand Alone bears similar vibes from "Taxi Driver" and "A Serbian Film", which makes an interesting combination to watch.
10/10
