Man, I really, REALLY love the format and the reviews. Your thoughts are clear yet not shallow, they provoke questions and ideas. The pacing feels very natural and the overall style is very enjoyable. Also, awkward as it may sound, you are handsome and it definitely helps create a nice atmosphere.
Awesome work! Thank you!
On the other side of things, I would argue that the reviews are not fully spoiler-free. For instance, in you Hell or High Water video (which is great!) you show the whole 'trout scene' to us, the viewers. For me, it doesn't make the scene worse as I can literally rewatch that one for dozens of times without it becoming dull. The point that I'm trying to make is that you might be leaving people who haven't yet watched the reviewed film the opportunity to 'discover' the scene naturally for the first time, which is the kind of 'surprises' that I personally enjoy a lot. That is also why I watch trailers only once (and only a long time before the film is released so that I forget the details), otherwise it simply becomes a Suicide Squad scenario - the film experience becomes more of a 'oh, here's that cool moment from the trailer' experience.
Regardless, I think those scenes that you show actually FIT in the reviews amazingly and SHOULD be there. But I still think the Spoiler-free 'sign' is a little misleading and you might give this a thought.
Anyway, just my two cents. Looking forward to your new videos!
I literally just saw this in cinemas. Fantastic film! Can't wait for your review on La La Land and Moonlight.
Nice haha. This channel is so good! I've also subscribed to: CineFix, Nerdwriter, Every Frame a Painting, Now You See It, Lessons from the Screenplay, Screen Junkies, Channel Awesome and Stuckmann.
Oh, i just checked your description with all your oscar predictions and I just wanted to let you know that Toni Erdmann is the German selection (not French)
Solid insights about how well crafted this film is. Plus, despite the heavy subject matter there was plenty of humor in the dialogue (including the guardian proposition in the clip you included) thanks to how grounded it was
Was this your favorite of the year?
Movies I Love (and so can you) it was my mom's favorite. For me my favorite is either Arrival or La La Land. Moonlight was great too but the most emotional moment for me was in the first act (Juan's confrontation with Chiron's mom) so the rest of the movie kind of petered out to me
Movies I Love (and so can you) La La Land was lovely for those two hours in the theater, but my mind didn't keep coming back to it in the weeks afterwards like it did with Manchester By The Sea and Arrival. Of those two, Manchester had more time to flesh out more of its characters. So, yes, right now it's my favorite, but that could change after I go to a matinee of Moonlight today.
Tara Christina as a musical, La La Land's impact has a lot to do with how much you liked the music. I loved it so much I was listening to the soundtrack on repeat for weeks after it came out. YMMV
Good job buddy I enjoyed this format. Well done!
Great review man
I didn't cry during the movie, but, as soon as I left the theater and started talking about it, I lost it... shit, it really got me
The film really succeeds in making you feel sympathy for Lee Chandler. What a brilliant character!
hey man, could you make a review of the man down(2015), i would like to see your opinion on that. great videos ( a fan from brazil).
I AM NOT ALONE!
No no.no.wrong! About relationship with his brother, father and the boy as well as his guilt and anger.
As Viola Davis is being the frontrunner to win Best Supporting, I have a feeling Williams might win.
No such thing as "earned" moments in art and literature. Those moments that seem sentimental, needing to be "earned," are actually just as necessary for the work as any other moment in order for the piece to convey and evoke.
Love the review but I don't think this movie is for me....
He is a walking dead. He is slowly and willfully dying. He cannot 'beat' it and clearly does not want to. He has let his wife down, he has failed his children who ask him why they are burning!! He has broke his father's heart and lost the one love he had left, his brother.
I thought the teenager was a laughable stereotype. The most ridiculous caricature outside of a flat out comedy.
Nothing worked symbolised repeatedly/repetitively eg when they tried to get the trolley on the ambulance.
None of the men seemed to be able to communicate this seemed like the point but like everything else it was clumsily and wildly overstated.
Not a subtle film.
1st
I found Manchester by the Sea meandering and went nowhere. I've seen movies with paper thin plots before (2001, Enter the Void, Boyhood, Amour) but I can never say I was bored watching them. I can definitely say that with this movie. A lot of the choices to cut in this movie were very awkward and not seamless. Like, they were trying to cut around something (because they didn't have enough money to get all of the shots they wanted on the day). Also, Lucas Hedges' performance felt very artificial a lot of the time. The score and when Kenneth Lonergan decided to use it got me annoyed as a viewer. Basically this movie felt like the parody films in the beginning of Tropic Thunder.
