Don't Worry Darling (2022)
Amazing cinematography, great visuals, good acting, decent story
In short:
Metaphores and visual representation: 10/10 - awesome job. Rare to see a movie use this well of visual elements (like Get out for example)
Camera work, cutting: 10/10 also - interesting angles, good pace
Set design and costumes: 10/8.5 - probably not everything is true 50s style but even if not it could work story-wise. Not an expert, they sold me on 50s America
Acting: 10/7 - Not sure if anyone deserves an Oscar, but overall everyone did a pretty good job. Loved Pugh's play and Style was good too
Story: 10/5 - OK story. Some parts were a bit unecessary or didn't fit totally with the rest. Used some cliches and borrowed some ideas, but it was an OK story altogether. If the other parts weren't this good I'd have watch this still...but it's not the strongest suit of the movie.
I'd recommend this movie to anyone who isn't against fiction/thriller. You shouldn't expect classic thriller, lacks some of the elements, but has tension (mostly by visuals and sounds)
Post Mortem (2020)
Awful horror movie which is a shame
It's a shame, because as a Hungarian horror fan and photographer, I was so pumped to hear they make a horror movie based on post mortem images set in Hungary. I wanted to like it...but: apart from the interesting story base, it was horribly written. Bad acting especially from the young girl, she was plain awful, but adult actors also sucked. VFX was criminal. Directing, cutting, screenwriting, camera work...all way below average. The plot and the movie starts decent, but around 30min it starts making less and less sense. And when the screenplay brokes into pieces the acting does too. The pace of the movie is everywhere, it doesn't elevate the stress just makes very little sense. And the end is a huge clusterf&$ck. It's among the 3 worst ending like ever. And please...for the love of God...use some sliders for the camera. It has ton of involuntary camera movement that doesn't give anything just bad camera handling.
Gave it a 2/10 because it's the first contemporary Hungarian horror and costumes and the scene was done well but every other stuff that makes a movie watchable was messed up
It's sad, because it could've been a good movie.
Mother! (2017)
Worst kind of pretentious awful "movie" ever
I saw a couple of trashy movies. But at least in those cases you usually know what you'll see before you dive deep. Mother! is a b*tchslap. You won't see it coming when you check IMDB. Lawrence, Reed, Bardem, Pfeiffer. 6,7 points, psychological thriller. No, it's a boring, artsy mindf...ing terrible disgusting thing that puts the shame into cinematography.
