Cliff Walkers, Don’t Breathe 2, The Gateway, How it Ends One of my New Year’s resolutions for 2022 is to try and watch one movie every night. I won’t be that strict about the actual number, but I will try to get as close to 365 movies as I can; obviously, some days I will […]
Guillermo Del Toro is a fascinating director; from his earlier horror-oriented work to his action blockbusters and romance-centered dramas, and now his neo-noir drama re-imagining of Nightmare Alley, he has shown incredible versatility yet all of his work still feels like part of his style. He is an incredibly gifted writer and visual storyteller, able […]
If there was one thing that 2021’s remake of 2020 improved upon was that I got to see a lot of movies back at the theaters; beyond that, it was another bad remake that repeated a lot of the mistakes of the original. As such, my list for this year is a mix of streaming […]
Favorite movies of 2020, best of the rest, dishonorable mentions Favorite movies of 2020: This is a list that I should have made, at some point, throughout 2021, but did not. Since 2020 was a year that I did not have the chance to see movies beyond what Netflix or other streaming services available to […]
Inevitable. Once the announcement for a new Matrix was made, and I realized that it was not a hoax and that it was actually happening, my mind began to ponder what would a new Matrix movie look like in 2021. After re-watching the original trilogy, I went to the theater expecting something that felt like […]

I have not tried to hide how fatigued I am of the new phase of Marvel movies and similar, CGI-spectacles; I’ve also grown tired of nostalgia-bait and fan service as items on the checklist […]
Watching a Wes Anderson movie is like nothing else you will experience that year and The French Dispatch is exactly that; a unique experience that is full of laughter and drama, excitement and quiet, a well-structured script with lots of improvisation. It is an audiovisual experience that is levels above everything else that came out […]
What genre is Ghostbusters? That is a question I never really thought about, but was in my mind while watching Ghostbusters: Afterlife. I really like the first Ghostbusters movie and I don’t really care about the other ones; I enjoyed the second, but it was not as memorable as the first. The reason why I […]
If I told you that the director of Hardcore Henry (one of the best action movies of the 2010s) and the writer of John Wick are going to collaborate on an idea by a leading actor, who would you guess that actor would be? If you guessed Bob Odenkirk, then you already know about Nobody, […]
Out of the many names whose mention would get my attention, few will actually get me excited and one of those names is Edgar Wright. From the Cornetto trilogy to Scott Pilgrim and Baby Driver, I’ve loved everything he has done thus far, but this year was always going to be a special time to […]
