Gladiator II 2024
@uzhiel score: 6.7/10 | @marina score: 7.7/10
It can manage to be entertaining and be a good time, but when you pay a bit attention to it the flaws come out easily and as was evident it doesn't surpass the original film at all, especially after just having it watched hours before
It recycles almost everything from the original, but doesn't pack the ‘emotional punch’ of that one. First of all, in order to tell the same revenge story, it…

Wicked 2024
‘Wicked' manages to be entertaining, magical, and defiant to my gravitational 'musical prejudices'. We judged you badly, sorry… Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande's round performances are to be applauded, the audiovisual production is remarkable and immersive, and overall it’s thrilling ride. One of my favorite big screen experiences of the year, being something different for us and mostly in a fun way. It manages to keep me invested in this world, and you don't even notice that it's 160 minutes…

Heretic 2024
An interesting one right here, presenting an unique concept and approach to the already tired religious horror. It actually surprised me for the most part, even with some great aspects on it. The first two-thirds are well thought out. Hugh Grant put an amazing villain performance, I really liked the psychological horror and disturbing nature presented in his character. He truly made the theological yapping entertaining for me, and at the minimum accomplishes to get on your nerves. The two…

Red One 2024
nobody cooked here, instead we received a ‘cheap formulaic’ 250$M blockbuster… straight to the naughty list. like, it’s not the worst thing i’ve seen but it’s quite bad, especially when you consider its immense budget. it costed the same as the whole Arcane show, and fairly more than any other Hollywood’s production (except Gladiator II) released this year. not fun, the script and performances are lackluster, the world building isn’t compelling, the visual effects are poor, it just doesn’t need…

Fight Club 1999
The Uzhimari’s Alphabet Challenge
Today with the ‘F’: Fight Club
my second time watching it, and i confirm that it is a great piece of cinema. i love plot twists, and here is one of the best ever. one that gives you totally different but equally interesting experiences, the first time leaving you in shock and in the later ones you are finding all the possible details and the magic happens. this being Marina's first time watching it, it was…

Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022
The Uzhimari’s Alphabet Ranking
Today with the ‘E’: EEAAO
oof, this is probably my biggest 'hot take' so far. i understand that 'EEAAO' is a great film idea but it has been greatly overrated, considering that it swept the Oscars and is one of the highest rated and most popular in this community. i accept that it is very unique and creative, with the use of the multiverse, the ideas and scenarios put on screen, the many cinematic techniques and…
