Perfect Sense (2011)

A scientist and a chef fall in love with each other in the middle of an epidemic that causes loss of the senses.

'Perfect Sense' is a poetic drama, a metaphor of the modern world and the hope for intense and real feelings still being possible. The two protagonists are very well chosen, with a great chemistry and extremely expressive in portraying intense and traumatic experiences, which cause a variety of contradictory reactions. A real gem.

Director:  David Mackenzie   

With: Ewan McGregor, Eva Green, Connie Nielsen, Stephen Dillane

Rating: 9/10

Nobody (2021)

A family man, docile and boring in appearance, is forced to bring his violent skills back in use, after he makes an enemy of the Russian mafia, triggered by a failed robbery in his family home.

'Nobody' is a well-made thriller that shows a new face for Bob Odenkirk. Well acted, convincing, Nobody presents an interesting alternative for those who are waiting for a new iteration of John Wick, with a somewhat better developed emotional side.

Director:  Ilya Naishuller      

With: Bob Odenkirk, Aleksey Serebryakov, Connie Nielsen, Christopher Lloyd, RZA, Michael Ironside

Rating: 8/10

Inheritance (2020)

Tatal unei famili instarite moare neasteptat si lasa o mostenire surpriza fiicei, de altfel ignorata la impartirea financiara.

Un film drama/thriller ce e destinat pentru umplut timpul. Ideea centrala este originala si interesanta pana la un punct, dezvoltarea actiunii si alegerile personajelor pe parcurs lasand de dorit.

O alegere de rol interesanta si neasteptata pentru Simon Pegg, ceea ce reprezinta de fapt un plus.

Regia:  Vaughn Stein       

Cu: Lily Collins, Simon Pegg, Connie Nielsen, Chace Crawford, Patrick Warburton

Rating: 6/10
