Câinele Japonez (2013)
The classic story of the hardships of the old age that ends with a positive twist.
The movie starts out by portraying the realistic lifestyle of an old man in a classic romanian village who is hit by missfortune when he looses his wife and their house. However, he seems like he just accepts this as a reality of life and continues his struggle, he rejects an improvement in his lifestyle when he is offered an important ammount of money for a piece of land which he doesn't make use of anyways.
He seems to have accepted things just the way they are and doesn't want to make drastic changes at this late age, however all this changes once he got to see his grandson, Koji.
His son offers him the posibility of going back to Tokyo with them, however he seems reluctant about that.
Soon after his son leaves with his family he realises that there isn't anything left for him in the village anymore, so he decides to move on with his life, to leave the tragedies behind and open up for the oportunity of a joyful new chapter together with his son, his wife and Kojita.
In other words, it's a movie that starts in a quite pessimistic way but that changes once that the oportunity for better is accepted and acted on.
The Batman (2022)
Good but the devil is in the details.
I enjoyed the movie although it was quite long. The acting was good, the story was also good and I especially liked the dark atmosphere that was constant throughout the movie, however, I find it very annoying to see and hear phrases like "white privilege" in such a movie.. at that moment it instantly took me out of the immersiveness of the movie and I felt like I am watching some kind of educational creation.. and of course that the all rightous mayor had to be a black woman and the other canditate had to be a corrupt white man. This narrative is already boring and still annoying.. however, I still prefer this over the Spiderman movie any day!
