Paradise (2023)
AT LAST A GOOD GERMAN PRODUCTION ASIDE DARK!!
Contrary of certain other reviews I saw, I have sadly encountered a lot of boring german productions, being Dark the only thing worth my time...until now!
This film, and, sadly a film and not series; was a good piece of argument, entertainment and suspense.
Very early on and until it finishes, the film delivers good moments of suspense and twists.
I was expecting a more...happier ending but even at that they surprised you. That doesnt mean it´s not a good ending though.
I´m giving it an 8. Not 6, not 7. Because I think in all honesty its worth the time.
I can recommend it and trust me, I know.
Kaleidoscope (2023)
Very forgettable
Oh wow where can I begin with this mess!
Its one of the worst heist films I have watched.
The actors were good, and that kind of save this a little. But the story is very poor, cheap, whatever comes to mind.
What is worse is when something tries to Wow you, but fails miserably. This is the case. At least for me.
I felt Vvery unimpressed. Oh and its also Woke.
I mean, what doesnt these days, right? Pff haha.
I couldnt help myself to watch this in the chronological order.
Because, unless someone wants to debate with me, I dont see the point of viewing this in a random way. Maybe you still understand it, but wtf? You know?
I mean this has a beginning and end, like every story.
Of course the two or three episodes from the past can be watched in a different order but the rest? I dont know.
Call me boring or whatever. And I know Tarantino has done this before.
5/10!
Mandrake (2022)
Not better than expected. But its not a mess either.
Im giving it 7, but maybe 7.5 to be more specific.
The cast was great, maybe that was the best part of it in my opinion.
The beginning is kind of slow. But at this point I didnt have a clue if this was pure crime stuff or real horror involved.
This is when the middle part comes in and takes the cake.
Talking for a 'capped' 7.5 potential, of course.
Then the movie, with less than 90 minutes total runtime, gets to the final part. No shockingly big twists here unfortunately.
And thats about it.
On a side note, I always kind of talk about the beauty of the girls in a movie? So here goes:
I find the protagonist looks attractive, like a matured Emilia Clarke.
Cute, strong character and great actress 👍.
Now even the villainess has her appeal but I thought she was gonna be younger based on the previously shown picture of her. But yeah Im thinking the actress was a cutie back in the day.
