The Man on Fire: A Story of Love, Sacrifice and Redemption
The Man on Fire, released in 2004 by Tony Scott and starring Denzel Washington, is much more than just an action film. It is a poignant dive into the twists and turns of the human soul, where violence mixes with raw emotion and redemption takes shape in the simplest gestures. But at the heart of this gripping thriller, what stands out above all is the unique relationship that develops between bodyguard Creasy and young Pita, a kidnapped girl.

I rewatched Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 (2012) serves as the conclusion to the massively popular franchise based on Stephenie Meyer's novels. Directed by Bill Condon, the film attempts to provide closure to the supernatural romance while delivering the spectacle audiences expected from a franchise finale. However, its execution reveals both the strengths and significant weaknesses that defined the series.

Bloodless movies are more disturbing
These days, there are so many movies that try to scare you with strong images, exaggerated effects, and gallons of blood. But, to be honest, many of those stories leave nothing behind. On the other hand, there are movies that show almost nothing and still manage to stay in your head. Those are the ones that truly disturb.

I watched the How to Train Your Dragon remake
The Problem with "Faithful" Remakes Dean DeBlois's live-action adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon succeeds technically while failing conceptually. This is a film that mistakes fidelity for purpose, creating a nearly scene-for-scene remake that raises an uncomfortable question: why does this need to exist?

Il ritorno di Sandokan — The Return of Sandokan 1996
I feel that this series was unjustly treated. True, there are a few dissonances in the story compared to the original, but it is not at all bad — and it is refreshing to have a lady lead again. Mandala Tayde is delightful. The show brings back a certain charm that was lost in La tigre e ancora viva -Sandokan alla riscossa (1977). In English, the film was called The Tiger is alive, the second Sandokan movie— where, there was no love interest.

Thunderbolts Movie Review
Let’s be honest... When I first heard about Thunderbolts, I didn’t think much of it. The marketing was practically nonexistent, the trailer didn’t shake the internet, and the cast didn’t seem to scream blockbuster. In fact, the characters themselves didn’t fit the usual Marvel mold, no overly polished, Hollywood handsome superheroes. Just gritty, damaged people. It felt… average.

pride and prejudice
Pride and Prejudice (2005) is, personally, my favorite romance film. I know it may sound cliché, but the story of a young woman who finds herself embroiled in a romance with the proud Mr. Darcy—a well-known millionaire of the time—is completely captivating, even for those who aren't fans of the romance genre.

Together Review
I liked this film more than I expected. I think the reason is that, being a body horror film, it raised my eyebrows: if it's poorly made, these types of films tend to be very annoying and unpleasant to watch, and not in a good way. However, in this case, the result was quite the opposite.
