Peliplat - The first social network for film buffs. Everything you need to know about the film industry, its celebrities and the best movies and TV shows.

There is something trully surprising and special when you live in a country where the only film production is concentrated on lazy written romantic comedies, infantiloid horror flicks and supposedly intelectual art films where nothing happens, and suddenly you see in the cinema that there is something else. In this case, a zombie apocaliptic movie that promised a lot of gore, boddy horror and a latinamerican idiosyncrasy. And, it kind of delivers. Párvulos: Hijos del Apocalipsis [Parvulos: Sons

Let me tell you a very personal story about an animated film that, years ago, touched my heart and still holds a special place in my life. It's one of those stories that leaves a mark, that hits you hard, and somehow stays with you forever. The film I'm talking about is Meet the Robinsons. Yes, that one some people remember for its quirky characters and wild plot twists, but for me, it’s always been so much more than that; it’s a piece of my childhood, one of those films that become like a frien

Ever since the first time I watched Mulan, I was hooked by Mushu's charisma. That cheeky little dragon, with sharp humor and personality, not only made me laugh, but also left a mark. It's no wonder that I still say his lines every day. Mushu has become my weekly companion, someone who reminds me that, even with our imperfections, we can make a difference. He is more than a cartoon character, he is that friend that we would love to have by our side when we face challenges and problems. What make

Doraemon was a regular TV show in my childhood. In my memory, this series of animated shows seemed endless, always playing. I never even watched the first episode and have no idea how Doraemon first joined Nobita's family. But I got used to it pulling out magical gadgets from its four-dimensional pocket in every episode and it made made me cheer. The recurring theme of introducing a new gadget in almost every episode is definitely one of Doraemon's secrets to its enduring popularity. Many years

Remy in Ratatouille Hello Peliplaters! I've published nearly a hundred articles on Peliplat. Over the past year or so, I've consistently returned here to write. While my readership isn't large, I find Peliplat to be an excellent platform for expressing pure, unbiased opinions. When I mention to my friends that I blog on Peliplat, I often struggle to explain its uniqueness. It wasn't until I recently rewatched Ratatouille that I realized what keeps me writing here. Peliplat isn't driven by rating

In 1994, a year destined to be recorded in cinematic history as an outstanding year for world cinema, I was just starting middle school. Back then, I began to discover many films by patronizing screening houses on the street and gradually developed a habit of watching movies. However, I was still far from having the chance, as we do today, to watch major global premieres almost in real-time. Montage of blockbusters in 1994 Thirty years ago, the god of cinema descended upon us yet again. This mig

Ver la serie The Park Maniac: The Untold Story fue una experiencia que me desestabilizó. Crecer en São Paulo en los años 90 significaba convivir con historias de violencia que, a veces, parecían algo distantes de mi realidad. Sin embargo, el caso de este asesino, que atraía a mujeres al Parque Estatal Fontes do Ipiranga prometiéndoles sesiones de fotos, conmocionó a todo el país y dejó heridas profundas en la ciudad. A pesar de ser solo una niña en aquel entonces, recuerdo el miedo que rodeaba c

For a while now, everyone's been talking about the horrors happening due to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which has been on the way for almost eighty years but, lately, it has intensified to unbearable levels. Territorial, political and religious matters burn like an unstoppable fire in Israel's heart every second, breaking out chaos and an unnecessary fight for power in which kids perish under ruble, families starve without being able to find a way out and thousands of people are compelled

The Penguin and Joker 2 are both recent DC releases, but the rating gap between the two on Peliplat is striking. This made me wonder—what exactly makes The Penguin an 8.9 series, while Joker 2 only scored a 5.8? After watching the first few episodes of The Penguin, I’d say it’s because of its solid narrative, the kind we see in classic gangster films. In my view, The Penguin isn’t a DC superhero show but rather a crime drama about Gotham. The series opens with a strong start. In the first episod

The Substance might be the most thought-provoking film I've seen this year. Even a week after watching it, I'm still trying to make sense of all the complex emotions it stirred and figure out why it left me feeling so conflicted. I have been increasingly anticipating the film ever since The Substance premiered at the 77th Cannes Film Festival and received reviews calling it "shocking" and "breathtaking". As a fan of horror, body horror is something irresistible for me, so I really expected The S

The reversal of events is truly unexpected. A year ago, Donald Trump was a defendant in four federal criminal cases, his social media accounts were banned for incendiary statements and misinformation, and his status as the Republican presidential candidate was still undecided. A year later, Trump became the 47th President of the United States. This outcome underscores how desperate Americans have felt. Despite witnessing countless absurdities, lies, scandals, and inappropriate behavior from Trum

In the expansive universe of Japanese manga, Gintama stands out for its unique storytelling and profound themes, capturing the hearts of countless readers. Its protagonist, Sakata Gintoki, is a blend of comedic charm and deep-rooted samurai ethos. He seamlessly merges tradition with modernity, absurdity with solemnity, crafting a character that’s both complex and irresistibly engaging. The Depth Behind the Laid-Back Demeanor At first glance, Gintoki is easily recognizable: wild, with naturally c

Joker: Folie à Deux: Double Fantasy and the Faceless Mask In Joker (2019), Arthur (his name hardly matters) retained his agency as a character. He would apply makeup and perform, work as a clown, ride the bus home, watch talk shows with his mother, and chat with people in elevators. Through these slice-of-life moments, we glimpsed the city’s inhabitants, even if they were often thoughtlessly conceived. Throughout these fragments, Arthur underwent an unsettling split. At times, these seemed like
