Drowning Dry, directed by Laurynas Bareiša, is not a film that announces itself loudly. Instead, it moves with quiet certainty and emotional precision, gradually unraveling a domestic story with the weight of a psychological thriller. What begins as a lakeside weekend to celebrate a child’s birthday and a martial arts victory turns into a haunting… Continue reading Drowning Dry — A Quietly Devastating Exploration of Family, Memory, and What-Ifs

Superman: Gunn’s Reboot Flies, Even If It Doesn’t Break the Sound Barrier
James Gunn’s Superman is a confident, often charming reboot that understands what makes the character resonate, but also occasionally leans so hard on familiarity and messaging that it forgets to dig deeper. The film drops us into a fully-formed DC Universe, skipping over the usual origin story and opening instead on a bruised and bleeding… Continue reading Superman: Gunn’s Reboot Flies, Even If It Doesn’t Break the Sound Barrier

Eva Victor escribió, dirigió y protagoniza Sorry, Baby, una película que se trata sobre la supervivencia tras el trauma de una manera que no se ha visto antes.

Movie Review: SUPERMAN Gives The Comic Book Fans The Treatment They Want
1978’s Superman: The Movie will always be iconic and, so far, the definitive cinematic treatment of Superman’s origin story. While Zack Snyder attempted to give a more science-fiction-driven adaptation, it fails to capture the genuine heart that has driven this archetypal hero since his first appearance in comic books. And since Snyder’s DCEU never quite… Continue reading Movie Review: SUPERMAN Gives The Comic Book Fans The Treatment They Want
Jurassic World: Rebirth – A Fossilized Franchise in Desperate Need of Extinction
There’s suspension of disbelief, and then there’s Jurassic World: Rebirth—the latest, and hopefully final, gasp from a franchise that once roared but now mostly wheezes. Directed by Gareth Edwards with Steven Spielberg still listed as an executive producer, the film feels less like a thrilling new chapter and more like a stitched-together collage of better… Continue reading Jurassic World: Rebirth – A Fossilized Franchise in Desperate Need of Extinction
