A portrait film that reveals a different side of Jamala — without makeup, spotlights, or playing to the camera. The film lifts the veil on the familiar stage and television image of the singer, allowing us to see a real person with her own character and principles, doubts and fatigue, vulnerabilities and tenderness — yet just as devoted to the main passion of her life: music.
The 'Shaft' remake fails to capture Blaxpoitation's rebellious spirit.
All in all, “Event Horizon” is a cinematic misfire, begging to be perfected in the future. While it possesses an array of admirable visuals, the film leaves much to be desired. If only we could see Anderson’s preferred cut, which featured more character development and tortuous imagery. In the meantime, I have a catchphrase for this film: In space no one can hear you snore.
In all honesty, “Black and Blue” is a satisfying experience, complete with solid craftsmanship. With the help of cinematographer Dante Spinotti, Deon Taylor (the director) creates a murky, lived in atmosphere.
