Hell House LLC (2015)

Hell house and lack of plot

[7/10 · 13 May 2024]

Dont get me wrong , i appreciate some moments and i found some scenes pretty well made but something bothered me all along : the story

It clearly lack of depth and really didnt was that interesting in that case and we had also these people wearing black suddenly appeared without knowing anything or given a clue about them . It take a very long time before it start to be interesting : a lot of flashforwards and flashback that was a little bit distracting and let be honest : is that start really necessary ?and they showed again the same images at the end .

I appreciate the sound design and really give more immersion and tension. The scenes that i really found frightening or tense was with the clown standing and moving all arround the house , the heads of the dolls moving but i really found that they could play more with that and give more story to these dolls and give them a background like real human : make them feel that they had a past or something.

The end was more chaotic than scary until the guys with the black dresses come but everything was more hard to understand to get a scare but it was more effective after .

The big disappointment was the story and the lack of depth and creativity at some parts but i enjoyed it anyway even it take a little bit time to really start and have some unecessary parts in my opinion but its clearly watchable and have some scenes that really worked at least for me and have that ambience , mood that was really interesting .

So nice discovery and nice movie even if i expected way more in some situations or stories but it was kind of interesting anyway.

Barbarian (2022)

My Baby !

[7/10 · 12 May 2024]

A really surprising movie !

I really enjoyed it even if it start pretty slowly with these two who meet and at the first we wondering if Keith its the problem or is he a threat or something . But i was wrong and it was of course the purpose of movie to give that fake lead . When the woman discovered that hidden piece in the basement everything accelerate .

And to be honest that story of the rapist and sexual harassment was clearly not necessary .

But what i found a little bit implcit is the past with that man who bought some baby's stuff but they could make something more explicit or more mysterious about that man and it get a little under developped in my opinion and i really enjoyed how they shot it these past moments and it really give a different vibe than what we used to see in the present .

They could aso do much more in the basement and play more with the rooms and the set design but i guess it was ok .

But what really bothered me was that part when AJ throw Tess : it was a little bit too rushed and it felt like they didnt know how to end it even if at the end we get a little bit sad because we understand thats a woman who just wanted a baby . The breastfeed scene was also kind of scary : that mother wanted so bad someone to take care of that she took that AJ and made a scene a little bit disturbing and scary at the same time . It was a great scene anyway.

But i need to say its been a long time that i didnt get surprised by a horror movie recently and this one get my attention and it delivered some interesting scares, fake leads ,a horrific situation .....

Even if i found some parts not necessary : the introduction of AJ ( the rape charges and stuff ), a beginning a little bit long to give the real scare . And some parts a little bit under developped: the past moments, they could play way more in the basement trough the set design and used the environnment to make some storytelling ( even if we understand trough the TV that it was a mother who want a baby).

I watched also some youtube videos about also something that i didnt really noticed and i found the movie quite implicit and too much messing arround to really understand that theme of sexism and its trough the whole movie but i didnt noticed clearly and i need to say it was clearly not that powerful as the director thought it will be but its ok anyway

But overall it was a nice surprise and i really lije it and i couldnt get away of the screen and i spent a great/horrific moment . Nice !

The Shawshank Redemption (1994)

Hope is a good thing

[8/10 · 11 May 2024]

I really enjoyed the movie .

I really was a little bit bored at the first hour and how things get a little bit too much the same thing but everything accelerate after .

So we follow two guys charged for murder and both of them live in prison . And we see what happened and how they try to stay strong despite the problems . We know that Dufresne was not guilty but it get there anyway .

And the life in prison is a little bit boring but what i really enjoyed are these relationship moments and how they stay together with jokes and they helped each other like a family .

Dufresne got a chance to maybe clear his name by a testimony but the director of prison is corrupt and they killed the guy who could save Andy and it was shocking and we felt that injustice .

But the big moment its when we know that Andy had made a holemto get out of prison and it was unexpected . We felt like Ellis ( the funny thing is that from the beginning Ellis seemed to know everything and when he get worried about Dufresne that he could do something wrong we get the same worries ) so yeah we get fooled in some ways and that freedom moment in the rain was very well made .

Friendship,injustice,Justice are some big themes in that movie . And i really love that they talked about the life before prison and after too . The talk about some prisoners who cant get used to society anymore because they have been in another condition that dont fit in that kind of living so we see the death of that old man and the redemption of Ellis who moved on in life with a new business and project with Dufresne and i really like that opposition of fate about Ellis and the old man . And reinforce that friendhsip was really important .

A very nice movie and keep up until the end : you will get surprised about how things turned and about some dialogues who have another meaning .

The Changeling (1980)

The house and some ghosts and some secrets

[8/10 · 10 May 2024]

Pretty surprised !

I need to say that i really enjoyed that movie and i was scared at the beginning because when i saw his daughter and wife get killed i was a little bit worried that the movie will talk only about how that man get sad in that house alone with their presence as ghosts but i was completely wrong and glad that i was wrong .

So it have some mysteries about the house and the previous people who lived there and we got also a dirty secret about a legacy that someone steal it . So yeah it was pretty well made and the investigations trough the whole movie was really interesting and that sound design really make us in complete immersion in the movie pretty quick .

The part where they talk about the spirits was also pretty scary and was fascinating .

I never heard about this movie before and i found him completely underrated and im glad that i watched it and indeed we dont make these kind of movies in 2024 but im glad that it was made by someone at this time .

A nice discovery !

Indika (2024 Video Game)

Nun , riddles and prayers

[7/10 · 8 May 2024]

A fantastic indie game .

With a direction that cant let indifferent . I really get into that story but i really think it could get more deeper and more complex but the game is a little bit too short for this so its understandable .

I like also the gameplay even if i found that too much riddles but some of them are really well thinking and made . I enjoyed trying and trying again and again .

We got also that 2D part mostly when she talks about her past with her father and how dramatic it turned . So the game become a 2D platformer and get little tricky with the rythm .

The story also make some interesting themes pretty common in religion : talk about bad and evil , Sins , mens , purpose ....

the relationship between Indika and the guy with one arm was interesting and get more intimate when we get to know them better .

A very great surprise and just for the originality its totally worth it and keep in mind its an indie game and i really think they did a fantastic job in the story , visuals ,gameplay , riddles and the dialogues too even i expected something more complex and deeper about the meaning of life and religion but it was ok anyway and i really enjoyed my time playing that game .

I recommend.

Eraserhead (1977)

Confusion , baby and pure cinema

[6/10 · 6 May 2024]

Ok , so what i did just watched ? I dont really know . It start in a logical and understandable way with that story of a new born baby and that the father take care of him .

But after that , everything become so implicit ,so weird it feel like i dreamed . I dont really know what happened but i saw some frightening visuals and a dramatic end : with that man who tried to kill his own baby and it became a nightmare with a lot of Moments that i had hard time to understand and that got very confused .

Im pretty familiar with the work of Lynch and i know that sometimes we need to watch multiple times the movie to understand all the smalll details and all that stuff but for this one i just think it was a fantasy world with a strange situation and we witnessed all of that .

I like also how the movie dont explain everything and let the images speak but here its hard to really understand . But the images was there and it shift between like a normal situation to something more like a nightmare with dramatic consequences

I enjoyed the visuals, the shots and the mise en scene despite that i didnt fully understand it . Nice anyway.

Videodrome (1983)

Videodrome between power and confusion

[6/10 · 6 May 2024]

Im pretty confused about what i just watched .

The story was a little bit weird and all that hallucination and reality stuff make me really confused about what really happened and what didnt . Its like enter another dimension .

I appreciate the special effects , the weirdness when it come about Videodrome and all that universe but it was hard to understand : maybe too much sci fi for me . The scenes where they include the body horror was well made and worked pretty well but like i said the movie is prettty implicit : does our main character get controlled by Videodrome by all these tapes he watched ? The effects with the TV was well made and it really helped with the immersion but yeah focus because its not really usual to see and to keep up about the strangeness of the movie but it was interesting despite all that .

And the nudity really was sensual and exciting to watch . The relationship with Nicki and Max was interesting and sensual too.

Psycho II (1983)

Norman and his mother

[7/10 · 5 May 2024]

I was really scared to watch this because i thought it will be very bad or too much a copy of the first movie and i thought i will pass on this one but i get very curious about how they directed and what they will talk about and i said lets try just to see ....

So lets be honest it was not that bad but definitely less subtle and creative at the first movie but its pretty watchable and have some interesting revelations about Norman and his real mother that really keep us on edge .

We have the introduction of the mother and the daughter that had their own family dead because of Norman and that was interesting : We get slowly to know that they are in fact mother and daughter but they had a plan to make Norman trap and get back to the asylum : it was pretty believable and logic and let us understand more their behaviours mostly the girl and why she insist to stay with Norman .

Norman let us know more about him and how he get confused about the fact that his mother is really dead or not ? And we as a viewer get confused too because we still have these murders and its pretty hard to say if it was Norman or someone else . And it was pretty unexpected that the mother and daughter start to kill to make Norman trap and i didnt see it coming

The shots are interesting and have that physical way to show things trough the camera and how we moved with it and it make us dive into the movie quite fast . The buildup was less sophisticate as the first one but because they both have different purposes so its hard to compare the both movies and thats why this movie is interesting alone with all that psychological and confusion that it bring . Until we have that revelation of his real mother and the fact that he killed her too and put her on a chair and we still have that voice of his old mother .

So yeah it was not that bad and i really enjoyed knowing what really happened and is it really Norman who killed all these people ? The sheriff investigations let us understand more and what really happened .

Quite a great surprise with this movie even if i found the first movie an interesting way to show us things and to introduced Norman even if it was not really him at first the real character and some things in the first movie was pretty brilliant and some shots too . And i still dont understand why they put the shower scene at the beginning of the second movie : a little bit of non sense or too nostalgic ? I dont know but i really appreciate that and it was a nice thriller .

The House That Screamed (1969)

a girl like his mom

[7/10 · 4 May 2024]

I need to say that i was pretty bored .....

The beginning was promising and let us suggest that strange things happened there but it take time to build something : almost nothing really happened in the first hour and we just have the impression to be a student .

Even after the first murder , the killls become just an event and we dont have that tension bring by a killer because after the first kill we have barely nothing else to make us in tension but after the revelation about who killed all these girls everything make sense in a way because we talked about the killer since the beginning ...

Indeed , the killer was Luis and its pretty comprehensive that we dont have that tension from the killer because the way they put it was more psychological than anything else : We understand Luis is more fragile , seek a girl like his mom and have some meetings with the girls of the school and even get a little bit more sexual when he tried to spy them on the shower .

Sexuality is also talked and the images and sound was pretty explicit during the sewing and i found that example quite strong in the way they translate how the girls are in need of boys and explore their own sexuality :how the girls almost have an orgasm during hearing the girl having Luis in the same room . Was really strong and the images speak and made us understand very well .

The revelation was unexpected and it was Luis and his reason was quite believable because they talked about it earlier but the mother didnt expect this . Its at this moment that i understand why the killer didnt bring tension that much and we have more a psychological movie with a slasher because we knew from the beginning that a young girl was killed : so pretty brilliant how they put all in place like a puzzle and i really appreciate it even if i found that the movie was boring sometimes and didnt bring what i expected from a Giallo genre but it worked in a different way and i found it brilliant despite the rythm who is uneven.

Nice anyway.

The House by the Cemetery (1981)

The thing in the basement

[7/10 · 29 April 2024]

Im pretty happy to have discovered this movie . I saw it dubbed in English and first thing to say the dubbed part was not the more pleasant thing in the movie but .....

The story is mysterious enough and let us dive into it pretty quick with disturbing images , compositions . We slowly get revealed about who lived in the house and how that Doctor died by learning the truth that there was a living guy there who survived by eating human brains . It was well tell and let us pretty intriguing all along .

The music also add tensions,atmosphere to the movie and it was a real quality in that movie . The Blood also was there even if it was not that gore .

I never heard about that movie and im glad that i discovered it pretty recently and it was a nice surprise by the direction, story, music and some shots that made us quite uncomfortable and i really appreciate that atmosphere . Just a little bit sad for the dubbing : that put me off at some moments but it was watchable .

I recommend it anyway.

Ghostwatch (1992 TV Movie)

is that a show or a movie ?

[5/10 · 28 April 2024]

Im quite disappointed : It take too much time . The buildup was promising but the calls was not necessary : some of the stories distract us from the main story.

Some things that i didnt really understand: the end let me pretty confused . So they forget to add some things and just program it like it was a real show but forget to add the fiction relative to the movie and it was really pointless and lack of interest . Too much stories to process , too much faces , too much characters .

It was also a little bit too short and i need to say that the mise en scene and how naturally the actors performed make it less annoying and frustrating . Because its really promising but dont keep up sadly.

The Callisto Protocol (2022 Video Game)

Dead Space indeed but with his own identity

[8/10 · 28 April 2024]

I need to say that i was worried at first because the game is clearly inspired of Dead Space .

And i was scared that they made something similar that have not the same taste but im really surprised about the game .

The story is a little bit too much and kind of classic : a virus and an antidote to help everyone . Too much drama and sometimes it was not even necessary but i didnt really get into it by the story but more with that atmosphere, the visuals ( lets be honest : Callisto Protocol is a very beautiful game ), the stealth ( yes the game contain a way to kill ennemies silently and i like that different approach of gameplay ), the sound design ( it really enhance the experience of horror and tensions ). How the characters meet are a little bit clumsy and classic ( Mostly Dani and Jacob.)

The variety of ennemies was interesting and there was really violent and we could feel their violence by their way of how they moves . I enjoyed the mechanics of melee with that long stick and i found very intuitive the way to dodge the attacks and was really great to play and give a different experience than the dead space and have in my opinion his own identity .

The story was ok but nothing that interesting and the ambience , mood was really there and i really love my gameplay during the time that i played .

Some design elements remind me too much of Dead Space : the upgrading elements , the doors , some weapons , some powers. But it really surprised me how the game was pretty good and have an aventure interesting enough to keep you there with some original mechanics. So yeah its a great quality and love how violent and tense the game was : it really made me forget that im playing a game similar of dead space sometimes. So yeah a big surprise that i didnt expect the video game will be that good.

The Sopranos: Toodle-Fucking-Oo (2000) Season 2, Episode 3

Richie and violence

[6/10 · 25 April 2024]

So we see that man Richie came back from prison and will make chaos. It seem to be a new threat to Tony .

The story with Meadow was a little bit annoying and she get punished .

That part with the ladies and the nudity was really pleasant to see and i enjoyed that. The oral sex of Richie was great too.

The sister and Richie had a love story together and it was surprising .

The thing that i didnt like it was how illogical and too easy the way DR Melfi get again contact with Tony : the previous episodes she look very frightening but now she seems to want to see him again and i found that weird and illogical . Even more with that dream and the notes and it was non sense for me : why complicate things ?Why not let Tony try once again ? It feel weird now.

Monkey Man (2024)

Indian action and some John Wick Vibes

[6/10 · 23 April 2024]

I need to say that i didnt really hate it or didnt really love it because i expected way more actions . I really didnt think that the story its the main interest but its there anyway . That quest of vengeance its just an excuse to show us some images , actions and to be honest it have a little bit less actions scenes than expected .

So what left in that movie ? A story , some serious themes ( poverty , violence, money , misery, unemployment, considerations about money ,rape) . The dialogues was a little bit uninteresting and that story is too much stretch and it feel very simple and repetitive after a while even if we want to know what happened during the main character's childhood and what really motivate him .

The story arround of the gods was interesting and that story of Hanuman at the beginning was interesting .

Something was really surprising was the nudity : the indian movies are pretty shy about it but here we got some few scenes and dialogues that show and hear some crude scenes . That really didnt bothered me and i enjoyed it anyway.

We need to say also that end action scene was really well directed but it was too short . The only action who is interesting get too short . So yeah a little bit disappointing and that story was too simple . But i love how they used music ( American music and indians music get mix and i need to say the use of them was quite original and let also be a little bit gentle : it was the first movie directed by Patel and need to give him credit to at least tried something even if i expected way more trough the actions scenes and the story but good start anyway.

The Sopranos: Do Not Resuscitate (2000) Season 2, Episode 2

Uncle Junior is back

[7/10 · 23 April 2024]

Pretty interesting .

We have some nice talks about the house of Tony's mother and the sister of Tony seemed to know something about the money that her mother hiding but we dont really know .

The legacy of the mother of Soprano go to the childrens .

The scene of Tony and Junior was interesting too because Tony dont want to deal with his mother and uncle Junior try to tell him that he was wrong : so who really is right ? And does Livia is different than what Tony think ? What abou Tony accident ? Is he gonna make it ?

Love how also we know that Tony was involve with the black protestant and he shares money too for that . So yeah business is business.

The Sopranos: Guy Walks Into a Psychiatrist's Office (2000) Season 2, Episode 1

Tony's sister

[7/10 · 23 April 2024]

So yeah Back in business and i really appreciate to See Tony again .

We see that the relationship with Tony and his mother get worse and they dont talk anymore .

We understand more the Tony's perspective trough the arrival of his little sister and help us to understand his POV.

Jimmy is back too . And the misunderstanding and all the problem he is being accused get forgiven anyway because he was not the mole anyway so Jimmy not dead yet .

Tony's problems with his fainting came back and even he see another shrink : it dont work and he came back to see Melfi but she doesnt want to help anymore for now and to get involved to a patient's death.

A nice first episode that introduced some new stakes and new locations(business), new characters . Sound good even it start pretty slowly and let us dive in that show once again .

And i will not complain.

Late Night with the Devil (2023)

the horror show

[8/10 · 20 April 2024]

The form was very interesting and how they introduced the show and who is Jack Delroy . I like the style of the visuals and it really make me dive into it .

That story with Medium , Psychologist, charlatan was interesting and we clearly have that impression to assisst to a show but what really wake our curiosity is that we know something happened during this show that was dramatic and paranormal .

I really found interesting how they make the reality twisted with some visuals and at the first i thought it was weird and we found out we were in the POV of that guy who scared of Worms but it will even more twisted with Jack because we will assisst to him murdered the girl who is possessed at the end . A nice way to show us thing but i need to say that it end in a brutal way : i mean we just knew that end of terror was in fact reality and the only survivor is the guy who present the show.

I dont know if a new movie will be make but i will love to see it . The story was interesting and i like also when June appear and make us understand the situation with Ellie.

The scenes that we saw after the ads and make us more see how things are seen by Jack and his guests and i found very great to see and that black and white scenes was made with a great style .

I loved also the introduction of the cult and the old vibes that scenes make us feel. The movie really have a unique visual style . I was also interesting by the story but even more with the visuals and really make a great immersion .

It take a little bit of time to really tell the story . With Christou and his abilities and his death too . But its really a great horror movie to be honest : i didnt expect much and need to say that i was deeply disappointed with all the recent releases of horror movies but this one is pretty original and give some nice vibes trough some visuals who got a real mood and ambiences. The visual effects was great too .

Im also a little bit disappointed with the end because it end in a brutal way and all this build lead to something a little bit underused : the story of Lily, story of the cult ( why they burnt themself ), story of the show ( what happened after that ?) . So yeah a big build up but the end let our curiosity still dissatisfied but i enjoyed it anyway despite all this but it could take more hours and more time but it is what it is . The end also is more implicit and its clearly an end that reveal enough to make the viewers their own interpretations of it . Interesting but can let us pretty confused if you seek something pretty explicit and logical .

So yeah pretty surprised of the movie and at least if you seek some original movie , you cant get wrong with this one : it have an interesting way to show, to tell and to play with you : i mean the viewers . Nice movie , i recommend.

The Sopranos: I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano (1999) Season 1, Episode 13

The New Boss

[8/10 · 15 April 2024]

Nice final episode .

Very tense at some moments mostly when Tony hear the truth trough a tape that is his own mother who tell about the shrink to Junior and he also heard ghe death wish . Not gonna lie that scene at the hospital near at the end with that face to face was heartbreaking : We know Tony try his best for his mum but her is a little bit different.

I was also surprised to learn that the mic was placed in the retired home where Tony's mother stay and that was not Jimmy but he get killed anyway .

Junior get arrested and his plan to kill Tony because he sees a shrink failed .

We had also an important face to face about Tony and his friends about revealing that he see a shrink and it was interesting to see how communication can lead to something interesting without judgment and just pay attention.

Another important confrontation that was expected was with the shrink : the last appointment was pretty violent . But everything get back in order and we understand better Tony trough her and even more the sense of some dreams and the problem with his mom

I want also to make a general review of the season 1: I really found it interesting and i didnt expected to dive into the stories pretty quick. The only thing that can be a little bit disturbing is that it dont really have high stakes : every episode is a succession of events that Tony or other characters react to : there is no objectives to succeed or something . It was more a chain of events that lead to a better understanding of Tony and how that man deal with his personal problems and his business . I love that emotional part and that shrink sessions and bring humanity and another point of view that we can identify ourself trough the shrink even if she also bring some lights to certain areas . And it bring some orignal moments and scenes : A mafia boss who need to see a shrink and just remind us that we are all humans at the end of the day despite our jobs and reputations .

I really love that first season and i hope more interesting stuff in season 2 .

Need to see more.

The Sopranos: Isabella (1999) Season 1, Episode 12

Prozac effect

[8/10 · 15 April 2024]

A Very interesting episode .

Because this time the episode is really trough the POV of Tony and we can see how he struggled and get downed because of the medicine .

And some killers tried to get him in the streets but he gets out . We can be pretty sure its Junior who did that but we still dont really know who launch that attack and who want to see Tony down .

We got that Prozac effect mostly with that dentist student who get pretty sensual with Tony but after all this we heard that it was from the medicine . Side effects ? Anyway that woman didnt exist . Can we see trough that fantasy about Tony and that he get breastfeeded was just a lack of attention from his mother ? Or does that man need more attention ?

We dont really know but it was very interesting and love how they showed us the events . Need also to know who wanted to kill Tony : the big question.

Yakuza 3 (2009 Video Game)

Yakuza ? Father??

[6/10 · 14 April 2024]

Not really my favorite Yakuza but i think its still have some interesting moments despite the slow beginning and the fact that the story get mixed up by the responsability of being like a father to the Orphans . It took a long time to really start and make us dive into the Yakuza business and world once again .

Despite some really frustrating moments : most of them are when you taking care of the kids and look like Yakuza try to please more people by doing things like this and i didnt really love that but despite everything the story its still interesting and never i travelled that much in a Yakuza : i mean in different town ( Yakuza had Sotenbori and Kamurocho ) . We still are in Kamurocho but we have the morning glory ,the city and that was great to see new locations , weapons .

I really had to say that i hate the abilities system and didnt find that so useful in that Yakuza .

We still have some mature themes and we ha even more trough the childrens ( harassment, gestion of money, racism, discrimination, being united).

The story have some nice revelations and i get a real interest when it involved the Black Monday , the C. I. A and Joji the brother of Kazama . But the kids part really ruined more developpments and more stakes from the game and thats really sad because it could be more depth and more complex but i think because of the kids it remain a good story without that kind of Yakuza recipe with more humors and more "mise en scene" but it was ok

But im pretty mixed overall about all these kids and the fact that everything get a little bit off topics for a Yakuza game but overall we have that other story about the Okinawa deal that make us remind that we are playing a Yakuza.

A nice video game anyway even if its pretty different than the others: the kids, chase system ,new towns . I played Yakuza Zero , Kiwami 1 and 2 and to be honest when you played this one it feel like a downgrade ( i know its only a remaster ) but it feel a little bit outdated mostly with the visuals and the fight system is ok but very repetitive after a while . A good video game anyway despite the changes of Story and everything.

The Sopranos: Nobody Knows Anything (1999) Season 1, Episode 11

Jimmy or Pu$$y ?

[8/10 · 13 April 2024]

A nice episode that from the beginning make us understand that there is someone who give info to the police and compromise the info of the Mafia .

So all along the episode we got that suspicions arround Pu$$y and it became more interesting when Tony try to see if its really him or not trough some strategies and even with a face to face but they didnt knew much but the final revelation let us understand that the compromise one is Jimmy and not the others .

So yeah pretty brilliant like a whodunnit but this time we tried to find who have a mic on him . And something make us understand that Tony is in danger . We dont really know why or by who ? But It will get dangerous .

Need to see more and an interesting episode.

The Sopranos: A Hit Is a Hit (1999) Season 1, Episode 10

Mafia and Music

[6/10 · 13 April 2024]

It will involve the Blacks and maybe a collaboration ? Or a threat ? We dont really know for now .

The talk between Soprano and Melfi continue and its interesting to see that Tony do some musculation and thats why we got these scream. Of pain each night .

So basically we see the crew try to make money trough music and talents but it dont go as expected and it seem more hard .

It was kind of weird to see that subject in a Soprano and it feel quite off topic but money its money right ? Tony give a weird package to a neighbour ? What it is it ? We dont know . I hope it will get more dramatic later :that episode was prettty calm and different But its ok anyway .

The Sopranos: Boca (1999) Season 1, Episode 9

A coach and a Mafia boss

[8/10 · 12 April 2024]

I really love that episode : even more when it talk about mature subject like this : rape .

It was very interesting and we dont learn it instantly in the episode but much more later . We got that suicide attempt from one of the girl who is in the team and then the daugther of Tony who dont want to play soccer anymore .

And we got that final revelation where the coach is in fact a rapist . And we worried that Soprano will killed him but at the end , Tony let the police deal with it and it was a great decision. Junior also get a little bit in trouble with his sevret relationship and will tell with another guy that Tony see a shrink.

And we got the raise of suspicions : What Tony said to her ? Is that a Dr Melfi a real threat now ? Can we trust Tony ? So yeah very intesting and everyone is a little bit worried about that .

Junior put an end to his secret relationship and that cake on the face make me laugh : i dont know why : it supposed to be serious but i laughed .

It was a mature subject and i like when reality and fiction are mixed together like this and i enjoyed that sensitivity about that show and we got also that emotional part even from the Mafia . We are all humans after all.

The Sopranos: The Legend of Tennessee Moltisanti (1999) Season 1, Episode 8

Mafia and Police

[7/10 · 11 April 2024]

Still interesting

The episode get a little bit more tense with the indictments from the Police and Tony get the police at home to search the home and find some proof.

Christopher have a bad mood and his emotional stability can put the Mafia in trouble and even get himself caught .

This time we were less focused by Dr Melfi and Tony and their discussions get a little bit out of control when Tony realised that she only cares about money .

But we see also Dr Melfi and her family and all the Prejudices about being an italian-American . But we see she keeps the professional and didnt revealed that Soprano was involved in the mafia . So good point .

We got something that can have some repercussions and its the fact that Junior know now that Tony see a shrink : what will be the consequences then ? Need to see more.

Inside and outside of City's treble

[7/10 · 9 April 2024]

So yeah a nice documentary but the main interesting thing about it its the inside view of City and that intimate moments with the players and the coach .

Without that , we can seek on youtube some videos about that season of City and its the same . But these special images of training, private life, funny moments and though games was really interesting and its just worth it for that and to revive that awesome season of course .

It was a fantastic journey and it was nice to revive from the inside this time all the moments of City and their wonderful season . So yeah i recommend the documentary and its still pretty entertaning .

Nice.
