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.

Honestly, I am inspired by Madame Kaja Kallas, former Prime Minister of Estonia, for posting collages every six months of the books she has read on her Instagram. Well, so I made my version too but for the films. I will make this a tradition for me. I am looking forward to your opinions and film recommendations, feel free to tell me!

These are the posters of the films I have watched from January to June 2025: 8 films. There are actually many on my watchlist but these are the films I have watched and reviewed. I will post my reviews of these films later.

I started doing a list on Letterboxd of movies I own and then went and completely forgot id started doing it! It may take some time to add all my DVDs and Blu-rays to the list now, still may be worth doing it though 🤔

I just watched Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927). It is considered a #ClassicFilm but that doesn't mean that it is any good. It might just mean that it is important to the history of cinema or that it works well despite the limitations of that time.

Sunrise works extremely well working within the limitations of technology. It is not a true #SilentFilm but rather a #MovieTone film. It has a soundtrack though there is no real dialogue.

The #film simply gripped me. I was along for the ride. A must-see for any #CinePhile.
