Palatkik Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Vesper [2022] Struggling to survive with her father after the collapse of Earth's ecosystem, 13-year-old Vesper must use her wits, strength and bio-hacking abilities to fight for the future. An original story for sci-fi buffs, obviously low budget effects, visually interesting to watch at times, more arthouse than sci-fi at times. Worth a look.

Palatkik Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Causeway [2022] A US soldier suffers a traumatic brain injury while fighting in Afghanistan and struggles to adjust to life back home. Low budget drama with a strong lead in a frustratingly dull script. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 The Fabelmans [2022] Growing up in post-World War II era Arizona, young Sammy Fabelman aspires to become a filmmaker as he reaches adolescence, but soon discovers a shattering family secret and explores how the power of films can help him see the truth. Moments of brilliance but an overly long self-indulgent piece of Americana strictly for Spielberg nerds and a bit of a yawn-fest for the rest of us.

Palatkik Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Lucky [2017] Lucky follows the spiritual journey of a 90-year-old atheist and the quirky characters that inhabit his off the map desert town. Stanton's final and one of his best movies. Every scene with him is a gold mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palatkik Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 The Devils Hour [2022 TV Limited Series] A woman who wakes up every night at exactly 3.33AM, in the middle of the so-called devil's hour between 3AM and 4AM.

Palatkik Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Empire Of Light [2022] A drama about the power of human connection during turbulent times, set in an English coastal town in the early 1980s.

Palatkik Posted February 20 Report Share Posted February 20 Tár [2022] Set in the international world of Western classical music, the film centers on Lydia Tár, widely considered one of the greatest living composer-conductors. Brilliant psychological drama, not at all boring as might be ones first impression, where the performances and story-line seem real through masterful story telling. Worth sitting out as its rather long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palatkik Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 She Said [2022] New York Times reporters Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor break one of the most important stories in a generation - a story that helped ignite a movement and shattered decades of silence around the subject of sexual assault in Hollywood. Strong docudrama and performances, but the story is well known already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
