Mars Express (2023)
It's a movie I'll watch again
I wanted to write a review immediately after watching the French animation film "Mars Express." Although it's not widely known or popular yet, it's clear that it will make a name for itself soon.
Firstly, I can say that it offers a gripping experience with its incorporation of science fiction and detective elements. The atmosphere is beautifully crafted, with vibrant and dynamic use of colors, giving you a sense of watching something both very plausible and highly creative for the future. I'm sure its approaches will inspire many films in the future. I must also mention that it provides a visual feast with its animation quality, character designs, and background drawings.
The film is based on a detective-themed story and successfully keeps the audience in suspense from beginning to end. The deep and meaningful friendship between the main character and their partner adds an emotional depth to the story. If you consider it from a story-focused perspective, the ending might feel a bit open to interpretation and rushed, which might not satisfy everyone; this is where I deducted a point.
Note: I've started following Jérémie Périn. He's behind a rather unknown animated series called "Lastman," which I'll give a chance.
Arrival (2016)
Failed to meet expectations
I was so excited to see the Arrival when it started to show in theaters. After a long wait I got excitedly took a seat in the cinema. But the film was filled with confusion from the beginning. Then I continued to watch with patience, thinking that my time cycle would be within in time.
There was still no excitement when the first half of movie was over, but there were many question marks and a boring stasis. Unfortunately, this situation continued in the second half, even when the movie was over, we were left alone with many questions.
The questions that asked in the movie and the rationale in the fiction were nice, but the gaps in the script were extremely making me uncomfortable. It will be a disappointment if you watch Arrival with an expectation of full satisfaction as in Nolan movies, but if you do not question every detail, you can still enjoy it.
Unfortunately this situation is the one that disturb me the most in movies. Apart from fiction and script, the music and visuals were beautiful. I am giving #6/10 point by being so generous.
