watched in 2024
Wild Wild Country ★★★✩✩
Such a "meh" documentary about the Rajneesh movement, an indian cult that moved to Oregon country and all the ruckus it caused with local residents. more info
Joâo de Deus: Cura e Crime ★★★★✩
wtf. This documentary shocked me enough. It's always sad when awful and manipulative people use religion as a way to abuse others, but to also take advantage from sick people is repulsive. more info.
La sociedad de la nieve ★★★★★
I like watching things related to these survivors because it's an amazing story but I do think this might be the best of them. Loved the acting a lot. more info.
Code 8: Part II ★★✩✩✩
I like watching shitty sci-fi movies. I don't know why but it's always interesting how people defend their vision of a sci-fi story. I kinda liked the ending of this one, even though it was a little bizarre. more info
The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes ★★★★✩
Sooo, I haven't read the book but some people said that the movie romantices completely the fucked up relationship bewteen the protagonists and I kinda agree even though I know nothing of the book. There's something really fucked up about Coryo, I don't know if it's his smile or what, but that dude is a sociopath. Great acting, tbh. I liked how Rachel Zegler portrayed Lucy Gray and Tom Blyth made an impecable job too. In general, I really liked the movie but I have to read the book to have a better understanding of it. more info.
The God Bad Mother (나쁜엄마) ★★★★★
Amazing k-drama. It had perfect balance between drama and some comedy relief. The acting was 10/10 and the plot twists were really great too. Lee Do-hyun is an amazing actor and the way a smile transforms his whole presence is unbelievable. more info.
The Call (콜) ★★★★☆
I really like horror asian movies. They have a really great way of telling a story and building tension. This one is no different. Great plot twists, good actors and sufficient amount of gore. more info.
The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live ★★★★☆
I really like TWD, unfortunately I fell out of love of the main show. But, I think this mini tv series was the perfect way of ending the franchise. Danai and Andrew are amazing actors and they have a great chemistry; I think that because they were so involved in the whole show that that's why it felt like a such an honest story. I also read some bad reviews about the miniseries, so I don't know if that means I have bad taste, lmao. mor einfo
Night of the Living Dead ★★★★☆
Honestly, WOW. I didn't think I was gonna be entretained by an old zombie movie, but it was an amazing story, great actors, shocking ending. I don't think I've been that shocked by a zombie movie ending before. Loved it. more info
Ginger Snaps ★★★★☆
I get why this is a cult movie. I really liked the story and the cinematography. The ending was *chef's kiss*. more info
The Hunger Games ★★★★☆
I rewatch this story all the time. It's one of my favorite ones. Always a pleasure to revisit my loved ones. more info
Blade Runner ★★★★★
I get why this movie is such a beloved one. It puts a lot of focus in the human aspect of it and at the same time it delivers a great sci-fi universe. more info.
Blood Quantum ★★★★☆
A zombie movie with an indigenous cast and script. The dialogues sometimes were a little forced, but otherwise I liked the movie. Shoutout for that last scene, really good composition. more info.
Dune: Part Two ★★★☆☆
I couldn't stop thinking about Palestine when I was watching it. I know it's fiction and like zero related to the actual conflict, but I just drew those paralels and I couldn't enjoy it that much, it feels kinda flat. Which is a shame because the cast acting is good. Maybe in a couple years I can enjoy it, idk. more info.
Exhuma ★★★★★
A fantasy/horror Korean movie with a lot of religion, tradition and history involved. It had great worldbuilding and the actors were really good, Lee Do-huyn, specially. more info
One Cut of the Dead (カメラを止めるな! Kamera o Tomeru na!) ★★★★★
Hilarious movie. It keeps you confused at first and it's kinda bad at that point but once you pick the complete plot it's just great. I think is a good satire, not just of the zombie genre but also of the tv industry. more info.
Red White & Royal Blue ★★★★☆
A cheesy movie, to be honest, but I kinda like it. It's the type of content LGBTQ youths deserve to have. more info.
3 Body Problem ★★★★★
I really liked this show. The sci-fi aspect of it it's kinda confusing but you pick it up easily. The ending is at parts hopeful but also kinda depressive. Great plot twists, loved the acting. more info.
Bridgerton (Season 3) ★★★★☆
I really like the tv adaptation of Bridgerton, it's just so different from the books (which i read like 15 years ago, probably) and it adds a lot of refreshing stuff while keeping the essential things that make Bridgerton a historical romance piece. I was entranced by this season, which i liked too not as much as the second one, but thats because Johnathan Bailey and Simone Ashley have an unbelievable good chemistry, like wtf. But Niccola is also an amazing actress and the plot had sufficient twists and interest. I found myself shocked by the amount of queer representation, I suspected that the show was gonna play the bi card with Benedict but to be confirmed by it was priceless, also wtf with Francesca??? I was absolutely surprised by that twist. In general, I really liked the story and I can't wait for next season. more info.
Arcadian ★★★★☆
Ok, so there's two types of Nicholas Cage's movies: great ones or absolute disasters that managed to be entertaining in a weird and ironical way. This movie was… kinda good? Idk, his movies tend to be pretty average tbh, but the dialogues and the general plot in this one were interesting and the delivery of all the actors was pretty good. more info.n
Everything Everywhere All at Once ★★★★★
HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT. Like I now understand why this movie got an Oscar, wtf!!! I absolutely loved it. It was funny, dramatic, entertaining and it made me cry at the end. Honestly, best movie ever. I loved it a lot and like I'm mad because I could have been yelling about it for two years but most of the time I end up watching popular movies years after they were released and I could have been rewatching this one for months on end, omg. more info.
Quiet on the Set: The Dark Sude of Kids TV ★★★★☆
Amazing documentary. I think it covered a lot of issues really well and it felt respectful towards the victims. I was shocked, tbh by some of the revelations made in the documentary but it really puts into a different light a lot of weird behaviors from certain people. I was also so shocked at how normalized and socially accepted sexism and toxic work environments were, like a lot of those disturbing behaviors Dan Schneider exhibited would not be socially acceptable right now. It's amazing how culture can change in 20 years. And also, even though I was shocked and sympathize with Drake's confessions about his past, that doesn't exclude the fact that he's a victimazer too. It's sad that the abuse happened but that's not a excuse to become a predator. I felt bad for his father, it seems like he really tried to protect his son and blames himself for what happened. more info.
Captives ★★☆☆☆
Filler movie about child traficking and how police is sometimes unable to solve these cases, kinda boring. more info.
St. Trinian's ★★★★☆
This is an interesting movie about the teenage girl experience, although I like the characters and the plot in general, there's several scenes that aged really bad and imply an adult trying to pursuit a relationship with a teenage girl. That sucked, but if they were deleted, it would be a great movie. I loved Colin Firth in this one, his performance was hilarious. more info.
A Quiet Place: Day One ★★★★★
Although this movie was shoot by a different director than the last two, I think it remanied faithful to its predecessors. It has great undertones of grief and learning to love life even if you're dying. more info.
The Platform ★★★★☆
A distopian Spaniard movie that examines prison conditions and human nature regarding social inequality but to an extreme. Really grotesque, disturbing ending, but great nonetheless. more info
The Day After ★★★★☆
What a powerful film. Horror and hopelessness leap from the screen. Death is ever-present, and there's no happy or hopeful ending. It's depressing, dark, and I loved it. more info.
The Strain (Season 1) ★★★★☆
I've been wanting to watch this series for a long time, and it didn't disappoint. It's a very interesting take on vampirism, and the characters are incredibly well-developed. more info.
Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse ★★★★☆
I don't know if Marvel is still for me. I'll always like Spider-Man, but this animated version wasn't made for me, like I wasn't its target audience. I didn't think it was a bad movie, but I think younger kids might enjoy it more than I did.
more info.
Wild Eyed and Wicked ★★☆☆☆
Absolutely boring movie. That metaphor of fear being a mythological monster that you have to overcome with a sword is just stupid. And boring. more info.
Barbarian ★★★☆☆
Wtf I just watched? I can't decide if I liked it or not. It's a grotesque movie about incest and sexual abuse and it's just crazy. I felt like watching two movies at one point. Totally crazy. more info.
The Crow ★★★★☆
Great cult movie. Not only the plot is interesting but the actors were able to capture the characters in such a great way. Brandon Lee did such an amazing job portraying Eric. more info.
Seoul Station ★★★★☆
This is a good adition to the Train to Busan franchise. I liked that not only the format was different, but that the ending was so unexpected. more info.
Fallen ★★★★☆
Great classic. I liked the premise and the execution. Denzel Washington is an amazing actor. Loved the ending too. more info.
Trap ★★★☆☆
I'm not sure if I liked the movie. Josh Hartnett did a great job portraying a murderous psycopath but the whole setting is just bizarre and unbelievable. more info.
Unknown ★★★★★
I loved this tv show. I was truly moved by the characters and the direction of their relationship. I think they had very well-developed arcs and had great chemistry. Wei Qian was perfect; he's a really intense character, with a lot of baggage in his life and repressed to the limit, but with such a capacity to love his family, and Zhi Yuan was just very... cute and tender, and you could feel the desperation of his love on screen. The cinematography was great, very well thought out, and with many contrasts throughout the episodes that beautifully encapsulated the different stages of the characters' relationship. One of the best Asian BL series I've ever seen. more info.
Six Schizophrenic Brothers ★★☆☆☆
This a a crzy documentary. It really exposes what was like to live in a family with schizophrenic family members when that mental disorder was less studied and people really suffered with it, but I also felt like an intruder watching the secrets and struggles of really sick people. It made me feel bad and wrong. more info.
Late Night with the Devil ★★★☆☆
It's a good satire of the entertainment world, but I'm not sure it works as a horror film.
more info.
Bodies Bodies Bodies ★★★☆☆
It's an interesting bet in terms of slasher films that is a bit reminiscent of an Agatha Christie novel, but I don't know, it's like the characters are a bit annoying and toxic and it seems like you don't want anyone to survive at the end.
more info.
Moonlight ★★★★☆
Really emotional movie. Great storytelling and such a hopeful ending. more info.
Godzilla vs Kong ★★★★☆
Monster movies are always a favorite and Kong is my comfort monster. more info.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire ★★★★☆
If I told you I cried with this movie would you actually believe me? Like Kong looking for his family, his people (?) was such an emotional rollercoster. The only thing I found annoying was the presence of so many humans, like honestly just leave my monsters be, they're not hurting you. more info.
Conclave ★★★★☆
I can't unsee that whole meme with Georgina George and the Burn Book scene, it fits so good with that specific scene of this movie. Anyways, I actually liked it, I'm not much about watching movies about organized religion but this one was pretty interesting and that last plot twist was just *chef's kiss. more info.
I wasn't able to finish four TV shows.
