Interstellar is epic but riddled with problems
I loved Interstellar, it was beautiful, had thoroughly intriguing story, and even had a satisfactory conclusion. However, I cannot turn a blind eye to some significant problems with the story and direction that I saw. The story problems prevent the movie from being as effective as it could have been, and Christopher Nolan’s direction suffers […]

Review: “Birdman” is very good but ostentatious

Before I Go to Sleep is too timid and tiring
Before I Go to Sleep had all the potential to be a good suspenseful thriller, but the potential was squandered. A suspense thriller without suspense is a waste; in this case, the title becomes a taunt, or a dare. This film was a directorial failure by Rowan Joffé, who could not set the tone appropriately, […]
Gotham Season 1, Episode 6 “Season of the Goat” – That time there was a creepy sponge bath
Gotham’s sixth episode, titled “Season of the Goat,” is full of fun nods to Edward Nygma’s future character, to who Bullock used to be, and to who Cobblepot is quickly becoming. A decade ago, Bullock was a rookie just like Gordon is now. He was eager to find murderers, thieves, and other criminals. Bullock and […]

Birdman: The Unexpected Virtue of Audaciousness
Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) is a cinematographic playground. Beautifully captured by renowned cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki in what looks like a handful of extraordinary long shots. Those long shots it turns out were a combination of long shots and seamless editing. The effect is nothing short of magnificent, I was intentionally watching for […]
