Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024)
Wow
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions of the film.
Truly a masterpiece of our times, not for the plot, not for the acting (although very good), but for the hand-made special effects and for the Burtonian atmosphere at its best. Speaking of the plot, the film is not great especially because the bad characters never represent a real threat, that is, I never had the feeling that the protagonists could fail, but if one leaves the plot alone, the rest of the film is not a 10. This is a perfect sequel to the extraordinary work that was the first film.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)
Nice

Spy film because among all the heroes Cap is definitely the one that best suits this kind of stories, very nice the introduction of a new character presented here as a semi-villain of the story. In general I can say that the film is really entertaining, as a plot it is also well done because even if quite complex it is managed very well and therefore you do not get lost even if you do not pay particular attention to the film. I also particularly appreciated the fact of not being too confusing. Nice.
Thor: The Dark World (2013)
Wonderfull
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
This film was criticized at the time for being too sad and dark but it was a godsend considering the ones after in the same saga, this film was the demonstration that Marvel could do something a little more adult instead of making the usual racket, luckily they then found a balance but this film could have been a precedent for having more adult sagas, luckily the criticisms were not listened to too much. In conclusion therefore I consider this the best Thor ever slightly superior to the first and in a sidereal way to all the others.
Captain Marvel (2019)
Nice
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
Well let's say that defining this film as Marvel's Superman is quite accurate because the story of the two characters does not differ in intentions but only in content, however the film is very nice, personally I expected much worse and instead I had to change my mind because the film entertained me from start to finish making even the most stupid plot devices work making them fun but still sensible. So ultimately the film is very nice and deserves to be watched even if it is not a masterpiece.
Emergency (2022)
Wow
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
A film that starts off very normally and seems like the classic and very normal teen movie where two young people go to a bunch of parties where they have fun and then something happens that changes them, but this film puts the change in you almost immediately and it's like a blow to the teeth and drags you forcefully into the action of the film and you find yourself forming your own opinion of the protagonists, managing to agree with only one even if in the end all three have their reasons for doing what they do. In conclusion I say that this film is wonderful.
The Awakening (2011)
Really good
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions of the film.
A really well-made supernatural thriller, with a very good plot full of twists thanks to which the film slowly builds up like a wonderful house made of really beautiful scenes. The plot seems banal at first glance but as it goes on it evolves and becomes very cute and particular and for this reason the film never gets boring and keeps you glued to the screen for the whole time making you ask an avalanche of questions about what you are really watching. Ultimately, if you like ghosts and thrillers I highly recommend this film.
Knucklehead (2010)
NIce family movie
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
Underrated film that would deserve at least a full pass because it is a light, fun and unpretentious film, ok the acting performances are not the best and as we all know few WWE superstars have managed to have a good career in cinema and Big-Show is definitely not one of them, but in any case we must give a prize to the effort and also to the result that is not too bad. So in conclusion I would dare to say that the film is nice and represents one of the usual and classic family comedies, nice and funny.
Deus (2022)
Nice
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
This film has a very low rating even if in reality it deserves a little more because as a science fiction film it works very well and manages in a very nice and sneaky way to raise important philosophical questions without weighing too much on the cinematic experience kept very detached in reality. Having said that obviously the film has several problems and many oversights that make some plot passages a little cumbersome but in any case at least the sufficiency was deserved from my point of view.
The Guard (2011)
Wonderfull
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
First of all I want to criticize the film translated into Italian, a simple criticism, but why do Italians in these types of films change the titles and make them worse?, it's something I've never understood. Moving on, the film is really very beautiful and very funny as well as extremely entertaining, for the whole film you can't help but stay glued to the screen because it's all too beautiful and it's all too funny. I can say that the plot is beautiful and that the actors are perfect for the roles they play and they do it in a masterly way.
My Best Friend's Girl (2008)
Nice
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions of the film.
A romantic comedy for teenagers that contains a lot of the classic American comedy that makes the younger ones laugh and not so much the adults. So what is the film about, well it is a very simple romantic film where the strange couple that were not supposed to be together falls in love and where all the protagonists go on an internal journey of self-improvement that makes them grow and become better people. So I would say that this film is very normal and cute and for this reason not even giving it a passing grade seems too bad to me.
State of Consciousness (2022)
Underrated
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
I don't understand why this kind of film always has very low ratings even when in reality they are really nice, of course this film is not perfect but it is still very good and above all it is truly entertaining without ever having drops in tension. Having said that however I want to make a small criticism on the plot that for how it was built could have been managed much better but instead it is really quite obvious and it is a shame because the film has so much potential not really well exploited. In conclusion in my opinion the film can still be exciting and therefore it is worth seeing.
The Raven (2012)
Wonderfull
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
Truly a very beautiful film that tells various stories of one of the most famous horror writers in history with the expedient of a serial killer who imitates the stories of the latter. The beauty of this film really lies also in the masterful interpretation of Cusack in the role of the protagonist, an interpretation that really enriches the film that is already truly singular. Another really beautiful thing is how the film perfectly manages to be smooth and entertaining throughout its duration without ever tiring and boring.
The Return of the Living Dead (1985)
Funny
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
This film is stupid, but it is so in a perfectly natural and spontaneous way, it is so in a beautiful and fun way, this film like others are the demonstration that if one does not take zombies seriously then one can make a very good and innovative film. The things that attracted me to this film in fact are the fact that it does not take itself seriously and the zombies which in my opinion are a very good combination, because there are really many fun films about the living dead but there are very few that truly entertain in an original way and this is one of them.
Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)
Wow
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
A really beautiful film that gives comedy everything it can and in my opinion it works very well in this way even if the plot does not exist except in the last half hour of the film but in any case the film entertains a lot thanks to the continuous comic sketches that the film is structured on. Ultimately when one goes to see this film one knows very well what he is going to face also because it is the third in its saga and brings honor to all the others even if it is the one with the least plot overall. In conclusion, the evaluation that I can make of the film is extremely positive because in line with the other films.
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023)
NIce
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
In my opinion it is difficult to make a superhero like Aquaman interesting but this film succeeds very well by making the man who talks to fishes a perfect hero halfway between fantasy and socio-political scenarios of daily life in the real world because the film wants in a not at all veiled way to draw the viewer's attention to climate change and this is very positive. However, there is one negative thing to say, that is that the ending is too hasty and takes away a bit of beauty that the film had earned thanks to the slow construction.
Hyde Park on Hudson (2012)
Really funny
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
A truly beautiful and funny film that manages to give a really nice image of the difficult political situation of the time by portraying in a very accurate and nice way all the political personalities of that time. So the film wants to be a political satire but intended much more to educate about something from the past than to make fun of the politicians of the time. So in conclusion I recommend this film to practically anyone, both those who appreciate comedy and those who want a nice film about politics but without having to commit themselves too much.
Chernobyl Diaries (2012)
Nice
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film. In my opinion, not even a passing grade is too bad for this film that in its small way is a very good horror that in my opinion deserves at least a passing grade. All in all, the plot is very classic and it cannot be said that they have committed themselves to innovating the genre but in any case it is managed in a fairly skillful way and if we leave aside the classic very bad choices of horror protagonists, this plot also travels very well and is not boring because it manages to keep the tension high. Having said that, obviously I do not think that the film is a masterpiece but as a horror film it defends itself well.
Go with Me (2015)
NIce
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
This film starts off quite strange, continues slowly, strangely but still in a really interesting way and ends too quickly not really in line with the rest of the film and it's a shame because even if extremely slow the film still managed to be very nice and really entertaining. So in conclusion I have to say this film is terribly underrated because apart from the ending the rest is really worth it and therefore not even a passing grade seems to me to be something truly undeserving. So I dare say that the film is really good.
The Pit and the Pendulum (1991)
Mid
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
For me this film is we can say the mediocrity made into a film because it wants to be a beautiful and strange thing thrown into the inquisition, but it only manages to be really very sloppy and even if it has its beautiful and extremely valid moments it still never manages to really take flight and it's a shame because the plot is really interesting and it's really a shame, but it's like that and so in conclusion I don't particularly feel like recommending this film but neither do I advise against it, I say to watch it without pretensions just to watch it.
Hatchet (2006)
Funny
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
This film has a really low rating because it is one of the cutest and funniest horror comedies I have ever seen and the great thing is that it is so without ever falling into vulgarity or too much, it practically seems like a Scay Movie for families, a version much less thrust than the classic and famous horror comedies which usually fall into vulgarity to entertain but this one doesn't. So I would like to recommend this comedy to all lovers of horror comedies without any particular vulgarity, a good compromise between too much comedy and too much horror.
Moontrap (1988)
Not so bad
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
Well, the film is truly a terrible mess, that is, it's not that it's difficult to understand but too many things happen too quickly and this gives the viewer a terrible feeling of confusion and discontinuity which undermines the enjoyment of the film. In general the film is also enjoyable but it fails to make the leap and be truly beautiful precisely because of the fact that it is senseless as well as confusing, thus resulting in it being just mere entertainment without any kind of commitment to making the plot flow well.
Planetarium (2016)
Mhe
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
A quite nice but also very boring film that tries to be scary and futuristic, but in conclusion it's just a normal little story that tries to be new and compelling but fails quite spectacularly. I really don't know what to say about this film except that the idea is compelling and even some parts of the film are very good but if seen as a whole then it is really terribly boring and it's really a shame because if the film had had more pace it would have been really nice. In conclusion, we don't even know whether to recommend the film or not.
Eloise (2016)
Nice horror
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
An unjustly underrated film that certainly deserves a better rating because it represents a very good psychological horror with really well-orchestrated plots in time and space that make it interesting, scary and entertaining. I am aware that this film has several problems but it still puts a lot of effort into it and for this reason it does not deserve such a low rating, in fact in my opinion it deserves full satisfaction if not something more and instead incomprehensibly its rating is terribly insufficient.
Landscape with Invisible Hand (2023)
Wow
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
Finally a different film, a film that dares to do something and succeeds very well in its objective, many more films like this would be needed, many more films that dare and that want to innovate with lightness and wonder without looking at what can go wrong but only at what that can work. I had absolutely no expectations for this film and instead it really turned out to be one of the most beautiful and original things I've ever seen, finally a film about aliens that focuses more on the socio-economic aspect of the issue and even if said that way it seems very heavy the film doesn't make you feel the heaviness of the plot.
Momentum (2003)
Forgetable
This is not a real review, it should be understood more as a collection of impressions on the film.
Here I don't like this film very much, but not because it is excessively bad or in any way annoying or full of errors, but because the film is absolutely banal, it really doesn't make the slightest effort to be even slightly different from the usual, it makes its strength is almost banality and to avoid making mistakes this film avoids doing everything and therefore it undoubtedly falls into the chaos where all those forgettable and soulless films are that as soon as you have seen them you have already forgotten them.
