Sebastian Stan has been a recurring name in the cinema world for years, but his latest performance in A Different Man could well be the role that redefines his career. I've always seen Sebastian as a versatile actor, capable of diving deep into complex characters. However, his performance in this movie surpassed all my expectations, and impacted me emotionally and intellectually like few other performances. A Different Man presents us with an intriguing premise: we follow Edward, played by Stan,
There is something uniquely magical about the power of cinema to transport us to unknown worlds and, at the same time, teach us about our own. I grew up absorbing the stories on screens—each movie was a lesson in humanity, culture, and the subtleties of human relationships. This intimate relationship I have created with cinema deeply echoes into The Movie Teller—a work that goes beyond entertainment, touching our hearts and transforming lives. Set in a remote mining town in Chile, the film intro
Ever since I was a little girl, I've always been fascinated by the universe of The Lion King. The complexity of the characters and the depth of emotion presented in the animation left a lasting impression like few other films have managed to do. When I heard about the release of Mufasa, I was excited about the possibility of revisiting this world and learning more about the past of one of the most iconic characters, Mufasa. However, despite my initial excitement, the movie turned out to be an ex
To me, Love Actually is much more than just a movie—it's the necessary touch of joy our December evenings crave. Year after year, I make sure I revisit this classic, which perfectly encapsulates the Christmas spirit, rekindling a flame of hope and joy in my heart every time I watch it. Released in 2003, this modern classic shines as a masterpiece of Christmas cinema, skillfully interweaving humor, romance and heartwarming storytelling. Through several interconnected stories, the film explores th
Every end of the year here I am with some popcorn ready and my Christmas spirit alive, waiting for the new releases that promise to add a little magic to our evenings. It's that time when lights twinkle, carols rock and movie theaters are filled with stories that seek touching our heart. However, Red One was a gift that didn't turn out as expected. The proposal was promising: a Christmas adventure seasoned with a hint of comedy and a bit of drama. The marketing campaign raised expectations, prom
Today I want to talk to you about a work that had a very special impact on me: the movie Blitz. Do you know the feeling of coming across a story that manages to make you look at an already familiar reality under a new light? That's exactly what Blitz did for me regarding the Second World War. Cinema usually presents war as a field of battles, strategies and large-scale confrontations. But Blitz chooses a path less traveled and offers us an intimate and emotional narrative, centered on one boy's
Have you ever wondered what makes a movie transcend mere entertainment to become a remarkable experience? Queer, directed by Luca Guadagnino and starring Daniel Craig , not only caught my attention, but proved to be a worthwhile cinematic journey. Based on the unfinished novel by William S. Burroughs, Queer ran the risk of being yet another pretentious project, lost in its own visual aesthetic. But it was Craig's gripping performance that introduced an essential new dimension to the film. His pe
I must confess: I've always been one to turn my nose up at horror movies, especially when they involve scary creatures and desolating scenarios. But, to my surprise, Sting managed to break through my usual resistance with an approach that mixes humor, suspense and a depth I wasn’t really expecting. Right from the outset, Sting presents a premise that could easily fall into the typical tropes of horror films with creatures. However, the film leads a narrative that goes far beyond the expected, br
When I decided to watch Flow, I wasn't in the dark of a movie theater but was actually in the comfort of my own home. Expectations were high, especially given the unusual proposal of a film without any dialogue. How could it capture and convey complex emotions and messages with images alone? As soon as I pressed play, the answer began to draw itself before my eyes. The movie unfolds through the experiences of a diverse group of animals—from a cunning cat to a thoughtful elephant—all fighting for
I was more than ready to dive into the universe of Longlegs. The trailer promised a thrilling journey through mysteries and psychological twists, elements that always attract me to movies. On the chosen night, I prepared my living room to be my own private movie theater: lights off, popcorn on the side and anticipation at an all-time high. The beginning did not disappoint. The plot unfolded in an engaging way, with performances that captured the characters’ complex essence. I was completely imme
Ever since I saw the first Moana, I remember how fascinated I was by how much the movie transported me to a whole new world. With its stunning landscapes and a story rich in mythology, the film became one of my favorites from Disney. So, when Moana 2 was announced, my curiosity was piqued. After all, how do you go any further in a story that already seemed perfect? This sequel though, it arrived with a different proposal: less grand, but much more committed to deepening the connection with Hawai
Christmas is that magical time of year when families get together, love is celebrated, and... sometimes you're forced to face situations you'd rather avoid. It was with this combination of expectations and chaos that Our Little Secret won me over. The movie, starring Lindsay Lohan and directed by Stephen Herek (101 Dalmatians), promises laughs, but surprises by sensitively capturing the emotional highs and lows of the festivities. The plot is simple. Lohan plays Avery, a successful business cons
When I first heard about Nobody Wants This, I must confess I was taken aback. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody together in a romantic comedy? I never imagined that these two would make a convincing couple, but to my surprise, it was exactly what I didn't know I needed. In my opinion, this couple is everything that was missing from the rom-com world. The chemistry between them is almost palpable, bringing a light, fun and, at the same time, extremely real energy. I've been a fan of Kristen Bell ever s
Ever since I watched Ocean’s Eleven, Brad Pitt and George Clooney ’s chemistry has captivated me in a unique way—apart from their handsomeness, of course. Seeing these two together again in Wolfs got me immersed in nostalgia, with a bit of expectation of something new. The movie, which recently premiered on Apple TV+, features the two as rival fixers who must put their differences aside to complete a mission on a chaotic New York night. Both charm and talent are present, but by the end of the mo
Watching a series that in every detail feels like a movie is a unique experience. And that's exactly what I felt when I immersed myself in Disclaimer, Alfonso Cuaró' s new creation, which redefines what TV can achieve. I confess that I'm not a great connoisseur of his work—I know more about his reputation than his actual works. But this series has shown me why he is so celebrated: it's a lesson in how to bring together the best of cinema and television in a single project. From the very first mi
