Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig are certainly not the ideal dream couple, although two attempts were made. Besides, it's a shame to cast Kidman in action movies. But in terms of being average, The Invasion can be tolerated. It's nothing we haven't seen many times before, but why bother despising a relaxing genre? There's going to be another version of this so enough anyway.

It's so stupid it hurts. It definitely must have hurt in the movie theater. And yet the subject matter is decent. Oh, I get it. This is the toll of the idiotic romantic comedy that Nicole had to pay to maintain her popularity on all fronts...

A musical fairy tale about paying homage to the film century. The experience is, of course, deeper if one consciously perceives all the sources of inspiration. Viewers who only suspect something will only grope on the surface. The film features everything from de Toulouse-Lautrec, Méliès, Violetta, Monroe, Madonna, and Queen. Thank you, absinthe fairy.

I used to love it back in the day, but then I traded it in for Little Women. It was a big mistake that Kirsten Dunst didn't play the youngest Dashwood - now that would have been a different story.

I only discovered the Ally McBeal series once upon a time because of Courtney Thorne-Smith's departure from Melrose Place. Over time, it has found a permanent place in my heart and is one of those that I regularly dust off.

It's a pity that the selective release of episodes 6, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, and 22 on VHS caused such confusion in the numbering... Fortunately today, though, 1999 is surpassed and along with the three DVD sets from 2008, we’ve got Indy in the best quality. There will probably never be a return to the old Indy narrative, but what do I know? ;)

At times, it's really hard to believe that the story of Baby and her first summer love takes place in 1963. This is a film approached through the lens of 1987, and the period nostalgia is just a nice bonus. Despite the cult kitsch that it is, it’s also a pure genre film, an exemplary coming-of-age story where everything works, nothing is missing, and everything fits together with precise accuracy.

This is a great film.

This is a film that shaped me like no other. It would be futile to count all the reruns I've seen, all the formats in which I've watched Interview with the Vampire, and to calculate how intimately the adaptation rooted my love for Anne Rice within me. Even twenty years later, the film hasn't aged and every little detail is still fascinating. The soundtrack comes from another world, and Lestat and his story never cease to inspire. Kirsten Dunst became a legend and Antonio Banderas has never forgotten his Parisian days at Theatres des Vampires... The new series Interview with the Vampire (2022) is also great.

There have never been enough de Laclos adaptations. Interest in his transcripts peaked in the late 1980s, and I have to add that Frears' competing project means little when compared to Miloš Forman's purely auteur concept. Forman's Valmont is a gem among all his works, a balanced work of moral destruction that plays out both a playful minuet and a funeral mass at the same moment. Superb cinematography, ethereal set design, haunting music, and breathtaking performances are all a given with this film.
