4 Moons (2014)

4 beautiful love stories

[10/10 · 18 August 2021]

4 different stories, 4 different types of love....!

Very few gay movies tell about life as nice, moving and realistic as this Mexican movie... Some of the stories have a happy ending others not, as things go in life.

This little film will stick to your ribs and probably stay with you for a while..... Strongly recommeneded!

Sorry We Missed You (2019)

I'm afraid this is pure reality....

[9/10 · 16 March 2021]

This is a very disturbing film. Ken Loach did it again : he told us a story that needed to be told urgently! If you are thinking to shift your purchases more towards online business , look at this film and think twice. This is the best advertising to promote main street shopping in years. How did the world become what we saw in this film?? A film to be watched by every politician in the UK... So many issues that need to be put right....

Palmer (2021)

Star of the film : Ryder Allen as little Sam!

[9/10 · 21 February 2021]

Excellent film with good performance of Justin Timberlake but the real star of this film is the little Sam played by Ryder Allen. Fantastic performance! As the film goes on it grabs you in the stomach and eventually touches your heart. In a worrying conservative rural America Sam gets all the help he needs to be able to be different in this for him very hostile environment. Drug addiction kills families and traumatises kids for life but some are lucky and escape.

Finding Alice (2021)

Horrible ending!

[5/10 · 20 February 2021]

It is clear that the makers are aiming for a second series! But please make sure that after each series there is a proper ending! I hated this cliffhanger ending! Might take us a few years now before we know how all this finaly ends.... horrible!!

Lance (2020)

Absolutely shocking!

[7/10 · 11 October 2020]

You have to watch this , to actually see for yourself , how shocking this story is! Lance Armstrong abuses his healing from cancer and all his charitas to justify a life full of cheating, lying and using doping, destroying other peoples life's along the way but most of all ruining 7 Tour de France years long the cycling sport. Destroying also the chances to win this race for the few ounces that want to do it clean....And it makes you realise that it hasn't stopped after that . Landis admits in this programme that he won the Tour on doping as well.... and there was Ullrich...and how many did the same the following years... And today..?! Shocking!

The Notebook (2004)

I cried and cried....

[10/10 · 28 August 2020]

Best film i have seen in a long time! It's romantic and sentimental yes... But i ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! And i cried and cried..... More movies should tell good stories....

A Suitable Boy (2020)

Just watch it and judge for yourself!

[9/10 · 26 August 2020]

To be honest i have not read the book everybody here seems to talk about. I might soon.... This was an unpretentious but beautifully made, easy, lovely, romantic and colourful story about families in India after the second world war and in the early years of independence. What is wrong with a slow moving relaxed and uplifting story! And yes there is a happy ending! Honestly, i enjoyed this thoroughly !

Two Is a Family (2016)

Marvellous!

[9/10 · 21 June 2020]

Marvellous little film! French film , but it is more than worth it , to do the effort reading the subtitles!! If you like the character of the father in this film, watch also "Les intouchables" !

Free Fall (I) (2013)

BEAUTIFUL ...and SAD...

[10/10 · 17 June 2020]

A very realistic "coming-out" film... ... A young man is married, has a small child and bought a house with his wife... and then he realises that he has no choice and has to leave it all behind... he can't denie any longer his much stronger love for a man... Very sad and emotional... and beautiful!

National Theatre Live: A Streetcar Named Desire (2014)

Amazing!

[10/10 · 24 May 2020]

Short and clear : Gillian Anderson is A M A Z I N G in this deep sad drama! Not easy.... But a play you will never forget!

Custody (2017)

So dramatically realistic!

[9/10 · 8 March 2020]

The drama about this film that this happens in our society every day somewhere. It leaves scares to everybody involved for a lifetime.... Very strong intense film. The strength comes from the slowness it moves on culminating I would not rate the violence in this film "moderate"! It is not moderate at all!! Scary!

Amour (2012)

Amazing film

[9/10 · 15 September 2018]

Left me with a deep sadness. Of how love can make us go to the extreme..... Beautiful film ...

Mediterraneo (1991)

Watch it as soon as you can!

[9/10 · 14 September 2018]

I won't say must...most is said... I didn't know about this film although from 1991... discovered it just now...and as some have said.... after watching i was so sorry that it had finished.... little movie with a great story... i will remember this one.... My advise : just... watch it as soon as you can!

The Son (2002)

Brilliant!

[9/10 · 5 August 2018]

It took me half an hour to get into it....but once you're in... it will not easily leave you..... if you want action , watch something else. If you want something to think about.... this is a special brilliant award winning Belgian-Walloon film! The Dardenne brothers have been awarded many times at the Cannes film festival.
