Rated The Mole in the City 7/10
movie
Rated Made In China 5/10
On a très peur pendant les 10 premières minutes de se taper des blagues racistes pendant tout le film et rapidement la comédie potache se transforme en un petit drame familiale bien mené. Rien d'extravagant mais plutôt touchant. Pas mal du tout. Note : Allergie aux crustacés VS karaoké / 20
Rated Black to the Future 4/10
Rated Lethal Weapon 2 6/10
Rated Moby Dick 6/10
Huston has made some memorable movies but Moby Dick is not one of them. The cast seems to have been skimmed off a tub of lard, with Gregory Peck totally out of his depth as Captain Ahab, unable to convey the main character blind obsession and descent into madness. The choice of casting Austrian actor Friedrich von Ledebur as Polynesian Queequeg only adds to the overall silliness. There is some good stuff like Orson Welles cameo as Father Mapple, the gathering at the harbour by by those left behind, the vastness of the sea, but as a whole the movie is is a clumsy production and it shows. At least Moby Dick gets to live another day and I will always be grateful to Melville for penning that open ending.
Rated The Odyssey 6/10
This review may contain spoilers.I spent the last two days trying to grapple with it, but it did little for me I am afraid. The positives first: yes, yes, the spectacle. It's a long movie, but it stuck the landing for me with the "we are the sea peoples" dialogue. His Athena being just a priestess who fell victim to the sack of Troy was very potent. And the whole motif of the Bronze age collapse ties in with the current political moment we are living in, I for one at least was reminded of roving gangs of ICE agents, how fascism spurns civilization, and I want to give Nolan props for his political streak in his recent movies. But I felt it all was undercut _by_ the spectacle, by Matt Damon going—what I dub—Malignant-mode on a room full of suitors. I never really connected with any of it. Maybe I am the wrong audience for this, I never pretended to care about the Odyssey or ancient mythology, but I can't help but ask myself if this is the best we can do with it. Isn't an adaptation like the Coen's _O Brother Where Art Thou?_—an adaptation where the directors never actually read the source material—a better exploration of the human condition?I initially dismissed Tenet as well, but it has grown on me since, perhaps this one will as well, who's to say.Seen in IMAX.

Rated Puss in Boots: The Last Wish 6/10
I think I am too old to be put on the couch by the sixth movie in the Shrek franchise, sorry. How about the movies by Ernst Lubitsch? Is there any new Powell and Pressburger out? I need to catch up on my Fritz Langs.
Rated The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo 4/10
Blandine Bellavoir continue d'être épatante même dans des rôles peu épais. Fanny Cottençon en fait des caisses dans le rôle de la maman, ce qui dessert le propos du film déjà très basique. Petit téléfilm sympatoche quoi. Note : Mère attachiante / 20
