The Last Days of Capitalism (2020)
Plain
Before reviewing the movie I would like to state that the trailer had me in a chokehold. I was more than excited to see a deep, artistic, intimate and interesting love story in a very unusual (meaning literally one place) setting.
After being sceptical in the beginning I was hoping for their connection to initiate and to grow but none of this has happened. It began with you being confused what exactly is going on, slowly getting an idea because all of it, the story, the characters, the mutuality, the MUSIC, the conversations were simply PLAIN. Unseasoned. Boring. Unconventional.
I must say a few phrases have being okay, yes, but nothing a movie enthusiast has not seen already 1000 times.
I would love to watch the movie through somebody's eyes who SAW and FELT a connection between these two, because they are more optimistic than I am.
I generally love movies where everything happens at one place, especially romance dramas, but this one was just disappointing and a bland waste of time.
The Kissing Booth 2 (2020)
Cute, but incredibly predictable
Logically thinking the way producers of 2000s romantic comedies do, it was undeniably easy to predict the storyline of this sequel, which is not always bad, but surely tiring. It was heart-breaking to see how Elle led Marco on, left him hanging and wasted his time, that was definitely something that bothered me.
On the other side, the movie was cute, it made my sentimental and romance-desiring heart cry, I loved the intimate moments between Elle and Noah.
This is something you can watch to have your inner 16-year old self butterflies fly again.
