Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022)
Cinema is dying
Just a bad videogame - everything, everywhere is killing the love of cinema. Really, nothing happens. You just observe something irrelevant in a certain set... Next minute, the film changes set, just because. There's nothing fantastic in it, just a change of set as if you were playing a videogame: one button to to the left, one button to the right... and some characters mumbling an irrelevant dialogue. Really amazing is the fact that this year you have great films like "Tár" and this poor game of mirrors is celebrated like a real piece of cinema. The audiences, specially young people, are being taught to dispise the purity of cinema.
Histoire de Marie et Julien (2003)
Boring is the absence of ideas
Why do certain people that go to the movies think that (their) being bored is important for the destiny of the world? Why do they keep punching us with their problems of boredom?
Can't they understand that, to share something with the others, it's important to have some ideas (just a small one, please...) about the movie itself? Do they think that when they proclaim their boredom they are giving to the world some kind of undisputed law?
Is it so difficult to understand that the Rivette work cannot be understood by the rules of mediocre entertainment? Is it so painful to address the simple idea that Rivette keeps filming the mystery of love? And that he doesn't want to bore us with the vulgar ideas of a vulgar TV-movie?
Daredevil (2003)
How do they dare?
How do they dare to keep making such mediocre movies? What's the surprise if the term «blockbuster» became equal to bad cinema? You can guess everything five minutes before it happens. And the sound keeps pumping in our ears (not the hero's), just to hide the banality of the story and the vulgarity of the actors.
Have you already seen «The Hours»? One single movement of the eyes of Meryl Streep is more interesting than the infinite minutes of «Daredevil».
