Victoria (2015)
Must watch
This has held the spot of my favourite movie of all time, for a while now. It's a very well constructed drama, which unfolds in a way that will have you hooked throughout the entirety of it. The characters are well acted out and their chemistry together leads to a gripping and empathy creating experience. A big congratulations to Laia Costa and Frederick Lau who shine the most. The specialty to this movie which some might call a gimmick is the one shot. I do not think it is pretentious nor gimmicky. It provides the movie with tension by creating the immediacy that even a well edited movie can't create. It's very emersive where and lends itself well in the more intense scenes 10/10 for me.
The Twilight Zone: Shades of Guilt (2002)
Good message but huge plot hole
I belive that tge message of avoiding prejudices in( this example racial) is very important and I agree with the other reviews, but the execution is off.
While it seems to be a time loop which would be stupid because noone would age and they would be reliving the same day so it might not be. That implies that on the first day John Woodrell dies and our protagonist makes the wrong choice. The next day he turns into him wich is fine but the other Mckinney came out of nowhere. Did he just appear out of thin air? Did someone else turn into him? Why does he change his mind if it's actually the same person? Do the nazis hang out there every day? So mamy questions and no answers...so sadly despite the good message I didn't enjoy it.
P.s Forrest Whittaker is kinda not a host and F the greenscreen they used
