    This visually stunning film about community beyond civilization goes to great lengths to check off as many items as possible on its genre’s checklist, though the cast saves the film from becoming entirely ordinary.

  2. Gerade gesehen: #SpaziergangnachSyrakus

    Eine Fluchterzählung, deren Hauptfigur nicht fliehen, sondern verreisen will, das aber nicht darf, weshalb sie ausbrechen muss, was dann alle - außer ihr - als Flucht werten, wobei sie, als sie dann heimkehren will, feststellen muss, dass ihr keinerlei Heimat verblieben ist.

    Dieser Film ist großartig.
    Hübner ist fantastisch.

    From the design of the creatures to specific narrative choices and its relative freedom of interpretation, this film clearly stands out from much of what dinosaur cinema has had to offer in recent years.

    The animation is flawless, and the film is brimming with references and nostalgic nods, but in this third Minions-centered film (the seventh Minions film overall) surprises have become extinct.

    Despite a few Robin Hood-esque touches, this film is a rock-solid historical drama that relies noticeably less on the clichés of its genre than it probably could have gotten away with.

    The absence jump scares, the lack of pacing and a central metaphor make this film a contender for a post-horror hit. Unfortunately, creative decisions undermine any prospect for success.

    A buddy comedy with a fast-paced rhythm and well-choreographed fight scenes, which only hits a few lulls when it tries too hard to be funnier than necessary—which, fortunately, happens only rarely.

  16. #JamesGray is the last great #novelist of #American #cinema,” said #GionaANazzaro, #Locarno’s artistic director. “His #films form a rich body of work that echoes the #Jewish #diaspora, #filmnoir, and #Russian as well as #NorthAmerican #literature. A #filmmaker with a humanist sensibility and profound #cinephile knowledge, he has experimented with genres such as #sciencefiction and adventure while retaining his own #artistic identity and voice. Celebrating James #Gray at the Locarno #Film Festival means paying tribute to a unique and unmistakable #artist, a filmmaker who speaks the language of #cinema and knows how to pass it on to future generations.”

  17. A favourite film a day for 365 days LA Confidential.

    I love this for the way it takes its time setting all the characters up, and only then introduces the murders that send the plot off in a totally new direction and sets all the moral compasses spinning. Fabulous piece of storytelling.

  18. Gerade aus dem tollen #KinoImKasten zurück, nach einem nostalgischen Wiedersehen mit #timburtons Sleepy Hollow – gut gealtert, wie ich finde und der ideale Unterhaltungsfilm für diese Jahreszeit.

    Morgen geht es dann zum Meister der #suspense Mr. #hitchcock mit #vertigo im #ThaliaKinoDD in der empfehlenswerten Reihe „Tour du cinéma“ der Filmgalerie #phaseiv mit Klassikern des #Filmnoir
