Room

A massive attempt to manipulate audiences that is far from flawless and inventive as far as the story is concerned, working more or less with artfully bent family motifs, but formally and above all in terms of the acting, has nothing to reproach and fulfils to perfection its sole purpose, to reach the audience in sensitive emotional spheres. And that is all there is to it... 85% (13/01/2016)

When I was small, I only knew small things. But now I'm five, I know everything! About two main characters and two big twists. Nevertheless (or precisely because of it, thanks to having sufficient space) this is about everything important in life. For some, Room will be full of pathos; for others, it will be an exaggerated depression. However, for those especially empathetic, it is a perfectly balanced spectacle that moves and chills them beyond their own abilities. (29/01/2016)

An extremely upsetting and, for the most part, depressing movie, which is excellently filmed, but because of its theme I do not want to see it ever again. Perfectly made with absolutely convincing acting performances, so an obvious candidate for an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. To those who would like to increase their level of paranoia, but not in a depressing way, I recommend watching this video. (08/02/2016)

A quality psychological drama with excellent performances by Brie Larson and Jacob Tremblay. A strong story that surprisingly (and fortunately) doesn’t end with the mother and son’s escape but follows them as they try to cope with everyday life. This second part of the film made an even stronger impression on me than the first part, in which they were still locked up. The film kept me entertained, and the story completely drew me in. I wish there were more films like this. (13/07/2016)

I was afraid of the movie, especially of how it would affect me, and if it wouldn't be overly depressing. It wasn't. It was just right. I really liked the beautiful contrast of how happy they actually were until they left the confined space. Then it was necessary to get used to happiness in life again. It’s as if it's easier to live in that cave. (29/01/2016)
