Address Is Approximate (2011)
The Voyagers (2012)
A person can accomplish a lot. And just as they are capable of conquering the universe, they strive to captivate the audience with interesting films. I don't think "The Voyagers" belongs to them. It is an interesting film essay, but it did not appeal to me and did not provide anything interesting to watch.
Frank (2014)
A superb showcase of Michael Fassbender's acting mastery, as he confidently takes on a role where his face is mostly hidden by a mask throughout most of the film. Why shouldn't he take on such a challenge? I find it appealing for that reason, especially since this biographical film is brilliantly absurd, almost to a depressingly strong degree. Great performances.
Falcon Rising (2014)
It’s got classic action sequences that try to look incredibly cool, just like all the characters who appear in them. The main character is quite bearable; you can see he can throw a punch, and his psychological disorder adds an interesting layer. Not that it makes that much sense for the story. Otherwise, it’s not pretending to be anything more than what it is.
Saint (2010)
Saint has one major issue, and that's scenes that aren't fully developed. There's great potential in these scenes to be truly scary or truly gruesome, but they're undermined by poor editing - whether due to technical limitations or a conscious decision about what to show - that completely kills them. Unfortunately, this happens several times throughout the movie. It's a shame because this could have been a really great film, but in the end, it's just average and doesn't stand out in any way.
Casablanca (1942)
I enjoy remembering certain films, and Casablanca is one of them. The eternal story of a love that could not be fulfilled. On the other hand, this is a fantastic conversational drama with absolutely impeccably crafted characters, so stylized that they simply must captivate you. Bogart, Bergman, Rains, Lorre, and Veidt - those are the names that create tremendous quality in one film. Simply something that every film fan should see.
TMB: Panyee FC (2011)
It is said that sports are what unite many people, regardless of how different they may otherwise be. This certainly applies in football, especially because it offers the potential to achieve a lot. For example, even playing with a ball in a place where solid ground is scarce. A great reminder of how much people - and in this case, children - can achieve when they want to.
Road Rage (2012)
Coherence (2013)
The Palm Beach Story (1942)
Preston Sturges further demonstrates that screwball comedies are his forte and that he can create excellent characters. It’s shown beautifully here, and the supporting roles will entertain splendidly. Above all, Toto is unforgettable. The film also entertains with its story, which may seem simple at first glance, but the plot develops beautifully until we find ourselves back at the beginning.
