Calibre (2018)
Improbable story
Well, it is a visually well made thriller, good acting, good rhythm. But how the plot unfolds is simply not believable. In the end I felt like I had wasted my time watching. So promising in the beginning, but then... Dear reader, after watching it, just think about this: they didn't have to run away when the dog and the village hunters found the missing bodies. The villagers didn't have nothing against them, no evidence, no witness, nothing. The visitors could just have played along: "Oh my God, somebody killed them. So terrible!". But, instead, the most stupid decision was made: run away and, by doing that, saying out loud "we did it". Far from rational. Who would do that?!
Bird Box (2018)
Deep!
Well, I have an interpretation for this movie. He hides a riddle. What happens on the screen is action, death, a strange alien force and very good and well played characters. But the film wants to communicate something else. The riddle is this: what terrifies an ordinary person, is fun for a madman and does not matter to a blind man? This question is there, all the time, unspoken, between the lines.
And the answer is: the meaning of life. The character played by the amazing Sandra Bullock is in a situation so deprived of meaning that she can not even give a name to her son.
The film is also about the anguish of parenthood in a world without meaning. How to bring our children to reason, to a safe world, where they can make plans for life? How distressing it is. The way is tortuous and we seem blind heading wherever we think is best.
A must see!

Can't take it off my mind!!!!
I watched this movie yesterday and I just can't take it off my mind. One of the best thrillers I've seen in years!! Very good performances, very good and clever screenplay, intelligent and precise directing. The movie holds you in the couch, makes you pay attention to every detail... you can even feel the cold!!
Emma Bell, you deserve an Oscar for this! Breath-taking performance! She really throws you into the drama, the anguish, the desperation... The rhythm of the movie is perfect. Terror and pain going along with childhood stories and common life issues. Even Spielberg's E.T is mentioned! It goes from heaven to hell, back to heaven and hell again... Sometimes you see the sun, sometimes you get snow showers, and the scenes are built together with these interludes of pang. Thriller for grown-ups! A must-see!
