A ★★★★½ review of Rififi (1955)

Je suis (finalement) venu à ce film grâce à l'excellente bande dessinée «Rififi à Ménilmontant», une aventure de Nestor Burma, le célèbre détective parisien créé par Léo Malet et adapté pour le 9ème art par Jacques Tardi, un dessinateur qui n'a pas son pareil pour représenter Paris à la belle époque («Les aventures d'Adèle Blanc-Sec») ou celui, plus noir, des années 50 à travers les enquêtes de Burma dans les différents arrondissements de la Ville-Lumière. Comme j'ai beaucoup aimé cette histoire inédite dont le titre renvoyait directement à ce film de Dassin, j'ai voulu prolonger mon plaisir et grand bien

A ★★★½ review of Heal the Living (2016)

Vu sur le site de Télé-Québec, donc entrecoupé de publicités car j'avais la flemme de connecter mon portable avec ublock, le film a tout-de-même su gardé mon intérêt avec sa pléïade d'acteurs et d'actrices, dont les deux égéries dolaniennes que sont Anne Dorval et Monia Chokri, tout en me donnant l'impression d'un somptueux «hospital drama», notamment à cause de dialogues, pas toujours à la hauteur de l'histoire racontée qui, elle, comporte quelques passages assez touchants, même si parfois, on peut avoir l'impression que la mise en scène en fait un peu trop pour souligner ce que ressentent les personnages. C'est

A ★★½ review of The Gorge (2025)

Eh Thats all I can say about this film. "Eh." I didn't hate it. But definitely didn't love it. I can see the allure of it and why its so popular - but I found it so cliche and predictable. Painfully so. I saw every jump scare coming. I figured out who the bad guy was and the purpose of everything was the moment they arrived. Good popcorn movie, but thats about it.

A ★★★★ review of Drifting Home (2022)

Really enjoyed this. It’s a pretty typical anime with young characters who can be overly dramatic but I really liked the creative story & themes of memory, loss, and friendship. Starts out a little slow but really gets going once they start “drifting” away and there was some lovely animation. One of my favorite 2022 releases that I’ve seen.

A ★★★ review of The Wonder (2022)

Good atmosphere & could have used a lot more of the eerie music which I quite liked. Not gonna lie, though: “Florence Pugh” & “Period Drama” are two things that aren’t going to get me excited about watching a movie. Not my type of thing at all but this was an intriguing story, the young girl was good, and I liked the conclusion. Hated how they started & finished the film, though. Totally threw me out of the movie.

A ★★★½ review of My Summer of Love (2004)

Enjoyed this English countryside drama with strong performances from Natalie Press as a working class girl who falls for rich girl Emily Blunt in her debut film role. Paddy Considine is also good as the born-again Christian brother of Press. Liked the relationship & how the film ended. From the director of Cold War. Check it out on BBC iPlayer.

A ★★★ review of See How They Run (2022)

This movie, as most 2022 streaming releases, was okay. But that’s the problem… I’m so bored with okay movies. At least the ones I really hate tend to be more memorable. I thought Sam Rockwell & Saoirse Ronan worked really well together, though, which made this somewhat dull mystery far more watchable than it would have been without them. There’s some fun humor too. Certainly not a bad film but I know I’ll forget it even exists in a year.

My ★★★★★ review of Zen – Grogu and Dust Bunnies on @letterboxd: https://boxd.it/3qhHCT

Don’t normally review or rate shorts but had to make an exception for #StudioGhibli & #Grogu ❤️ #StarWars #Review #Letterbxd #SootSprites

A ★★★★★ review of Zen – Grogu and Dust Bunnies (2022)

Studio Ghibli & Grogu?! Two of my favorite things ever?!? My heart just about exploded when I watched this. Now if they could add in Totoro, R2-D2, WALL-E & Snoopy I’d need no new media to ever be made again. Loved this. So adorable & peaceful. And Ludwig Göransson‘s score is brilliant (as always). Works beautifully with the Ghibli style.

A ★★★ review of My Policeman (2022)

This was fine. I liked the story (I always love years of yearning) but the complete lack of chemistry between all the characters meant that the story didn’t have the emotional impact that I’m sure it probably had in the book. Everyone mentions Harry Styles but I was equally unimpressed with most of the performances except for maybe David Dawson’s. An okay film but may have been better with different leads.
