Comedy, Drama, Fantasy

Forty-year-old Andreas arrives in a strange city with no memory of how he got there. He is presented with a job, an apartment – even a wife. But before long, Andreas notices that something is wrong. Andreas makes an attempt to escape the city, but he discovers there’s no way out. Andreas meets Hugo, who has found a crack in a wall in his cellar. Beautiful music streams out from the crack. Maybe it leads […]

A heavily philosophical black comedy. You still with me? OK. Shown in a cold Scandinavian style and slow pace, this might be boring, but it’s all about style and idea.…

A neo-nazi sentenced to community service at a church clashes with the blindly devotional priest.

This film has a lot of great elements of Scandinavian cinema. The director explores important social topics and does it without pushing things, in a minimalist style and with some…

Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, Romance

Harold Crick is a lonely IRS agent whose mundane existence is transformed when he hears a mysterious voice narrating his life.

Just like Uncut Gems with Sandler, this is the only movie with Ferrell I loved. It’s well-acted, not empty and has a successful mix of genres that not many movies…

2006
Comedy, Drama

A family loaded with quirky, colorful characters piles into an old van and road trips to California for little Olive to compete in a beauty pageant.

Might be the best family movie I’ve ever seen. Technically, the plot reminds of the weekend’s morning movies, but there’s much more going on here. Seems like the directors and…

1993
Fantasy, Comedy, Drama, Romance

An Innuit hunter races his sled home with a fresh-caught halibut. This fish pervades the entire film, in real and imaginary form. Meanwhile, Axel tags fish in New York as a naturalist’s gofer. He’s happy there, but a messenger arrives to bring him to Arizona for his uncle’s wedding. It’s a ruse to get Axel into the family business. In Arizona, Axel meets two odd women: vivacious, needy, and plagued by neuroses and familial discord. […]

Hollywood’s rules don’t mean much for Kusturica and he stays true to his own style. A wild Balkan comedy in the Arizona? That’s right.

Drama, Comedy

66-year-old Warren Schmidt is a retired insurance salesman and has no particular plans other than to drive around in the motor home his wife insisted they buy. He’s not altogether bitter, but not happy either, as everything his wife does annoys him, and he disapproves of the man his daughter is about to marry. When his wife suddenly dies, he sets out to postpone the imminent marriage of his daughter to a man he doesn’t […]

I have a habit not to watch the same movie twice, but for movies like this it should be broken. Having seen it years ago, I should watch it again…

Adaptation.

Comedy, Crime, Drama

A love-lorn script writer grows increasingly desperate in his quest to adapt the book ‘The Orchid Thief’.

Nicolas Cage at his best. One of these movies where I forget about the details and what’s going on, because talented director and actors just make every scene a pleasure…

1955
Comedy, Crime

A gang of five diverse oddball criminal types rent a two-room apartment in an old house on a London cul-de-sac from an octogenarian widow with three pet parrots. The group’s mastermind, Professor Marcus, tells her a cover story that they are members of an amateur string quintet and would like to use the rooms to hone their musical skills. In reality, they’re plotting to rob an armored bank van and plan to use Mrs. Wilberforce’s […]

I’ve got to this movie from the Coens’ remake and glad I did. Not only it’s better, but also an incredibly successful movie for its times. Light, but not primitive,…

Adventure, Comedy, Crime

In the deep south during the 1930s, three escaped convicts search for hidden treasure while a relentless lawman pursues them. On their journey they come across many comical characters and incredible situations. Based upon Homer’s ‘Odyssey’.

Pure art in a form of adventure comedy. Every detail is taken care of, even the color palette. I love how well does the folk music fit into the movie,…

Illegal boxing promoter Turkish convinces gangster Brick Top to offer bets on bare-knuckle boxer Mickey at his bookie business. When Mickey does not throw his first fight as agreed, an infuriated Brick Top demands another match. Meanwhile, gangster Frankie Four Fingers comes to place a bet for a friend with Brick Top’s bookies, as multiple criminals converge on a stolen diamond that Frankie has come to London to sell.

One of the best Guy Ritchie’s movies, funny, subtle and full of action from start to finish. Every actor did a great job, as well as the operator(s).
