Premières vacances (2018)
what a feel good movie!
Funny, intelligent, heartwarming... the best movie I have seen in many months. I love comedies but I am so tired of seeing stupid scenes of people puking/urinating depicted as funny. It seemed to me that screenwriters were lacking imagination and good taste until I found this French gem.
Now I want to visit Bulgaria and guess what? I plan to watch the Italian movie they referred to (Il Sorpasso). I know I will love it too.
Hell or High Water (2016)
A strong candidate for several Oscars
This was by far the best movie I have seen in a long time. Every scene, every word of the smart dialogues delighted me intensely. The messages about loans and financial aid printed in background walls, nothing was there by chance. IMDb has classified the movie as a western, genre that I usually dislike, but the life of a forgotten region of the US rather than the plot is the core subject of this masterpiece.
The amazing soundtrack supports the melancholic shots of desert landscapes populated by hopeless, desolated characters - such as the lonely waitress that bears a child and has a mortgage to pay. The acting is nothing less than superb: Jeff Bridges, Ben Foster and Chris Pine perform at their best. And as every western this movie also has a final dwell - a one that does not involve guns but words instead. I cannot stop thinking about this movie and the way it portraits the United States and the world crisis in our days.
Mothers and Daughters (2016)
Boy, this was bad!!!!
I don't understand how people can enjoy and give stars to a movie like this. Everything is so poor, there are lots of clichés in a very, very poor story(?), the actresses call your attention for the unsuccessful cosmetic surgeries rather than for their performances... watching this movie was a real suffering for me and my husband, we can't remember other movies as bad as this one.
In fact we wanted to watch The Meddler but didn't know the name of the movie, so we looked for Susan Sarandon in IMDb and her last movie was this one. As we knew the movie was about a mother/daughter relationship we ended up watching Mothers and daughters by mistake. What a big mistake! While The Meddler seems to be funny and intelligent, Mothers and daughters is totally pointless and heavily boring.
Apparently Hollywood writers are missing good ideas, so here is my contribution: they could write about what makes beautiful women undergo unfortunate cosmetic procedures that make them look pathetic, not younger.
