Nonnas (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): A restaurant with old Italian ladies
Netflix film “Nonnas”, which was released early in this week, is a predictable but undeniably likable comedy drama inspired by one real-life Italian restaurant in New York City. You can clearly see what it is going to serve from the … Continue reading
Four Nights of a Dreamer (1971) ☆☆☆(3/4): Bresson on a lightweight mode
Robert Bresson’s 1971 film “Four Nights of a Dreamer”, which was released in South Korean a few days ago, is interesting for its unexpectedly lightweight mood and attitude. Compared to many of Bresson’s notable works such as “Pickpocket” (1959) or … Continue reading
Lilo & Stitch (2025) ☆☆1/2 (2.5/4): likable but unnecessary
“Lilo & Stitch”, the live action movie version of the 2002 Disney animation feature film, is a likable product packed with enough charm and spirit, but I also somehow found it rather unnecessary. This is probably because I belatedly watched … Continue reading
Still Walking (2008) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): The distance among them
Hirokazu Kore-eda’s 2008 film “Still Walking”, which was re-released in South Korean theaters a few days ago, still shines in its tranquil family drama which comes to show more human complexity than it seems at first. While its gentle mood … Continue reading

French Netflix film “Lost Bullet 2”, the sequel to “Lost Bullet” (2020), wants to drive further than its predecessor, but it ends up doing a bit more warm-up with some bangs and crashes while mostly sticking to its previously establishes … Continue reading
Lost Bullet (2020) ☆☆(2/4): A warm-up before the next sequels
French Netflix film “Lost Bullet” is so typical and predictable in many aspects that you can easily guess everything even before watching it. First, we have a criminal hero who is pretty good in his profession, and you surely know … Continue reading
Final Destination Bloodlines (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): It runs in the family…
“Final Destination Bloodlines”, the latest sequel of the Final Destination series, is actually better than expected. Just like its several predecessors including “Final Destination” (2000), the movie surely and firmly sticks to its diabolical rule on how to eliminate its … Continue reading
Lilo & Stitch (2002) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Her alien pet
I somehow missed a chance to watch Disney animation feature film “Lilo & Stitch” when it came out in 2002, and now I deeply regret that after finally watching it at last night. While it looks rather modest in terms … Continue reading
