Oppenheimer (2023)
Compared to 'The animation game': a six
Well, I am spoiled with 'The animation game'. Compared to that movie I give 'Oppenheimer' a six. Oppenheimers character was not as sound displayed is Turings... Cracking the German code is also not so controversial as developing an atombomb... Mixed feelings.
Somehow the English dramaturgic effects works better then the USA effects. The impossible love story in 'The animation game' was also more clear. The background everlasting dramatic music was a little overdone. Is it so hard to do something without music? The interrogation was complex, long and perhaps near to reality, but for me it made the movie unnecessaraly long.
Narcosis (2022)
It did not work for me
Unless you love whatching Thekla a lot in close up, unless you like long silences, unless you like that every scènes bottom line is 'we miss John very much', unless you don't like dialogues, Narcosis is quite a good movie. For me it was too much of the same over and over again. The bottom line was too much leading in the movie. More variations in dialogs, plotcontent, filmshots, lighting, music would be very welcome to me. Why were the characters displayed quite dark and not so colorful? I thought the movie (I heared a radio interview with the filmmaker) would be comforting when dealing with a personal loss, but those expectations weren't met for me. The constant worrisome attitude of the characters did not help.
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
A leap in Computer Graphics technology!
I was amazed by the ongoing beautifull scenes made by the latest computer graphics. Truly amazing. The huge stormy waterwaves were appealing to my worst nightmares. What a hell of a job! The story is quite simple, for heaven sake. Great movie. I saw it in 3D, Imax theater. (The sound was too loud for me though, so used earplugs)
