In March 2022, my mother died. After her leaving, the thread connected me with my past life, with the feeling of home, seemed to tear. Despite the fact I had a little daughter and a husband, I still felt very lonely. To overcome the longing for my mother I decided to take a trip through the memories of her. The things remained from her became guides on this path. Old photos ceased to be tied to time. Although mom is not around, she has left traces by which I can find her in myself, in the environment. This is a film about accepting loss, about accepting legacy.
Have a Good Trip offers a rather balanced look at psychedelic use. While its main narrative is the stories of recreational use by celebrities, it does delve into the medical history of psychedelics and its use in psychotherapy.
These confines won’t really encourage you to read the film as a metaphor for the nerve-inducing experience we’ve all been through over the last year, however — and in the interest of maintaining your dignity, you probably shouldn’t. While the sociopolitical commentary may have worked for the similarly-themed Buried (2010), in which we find Ryan Reynolds on his own buried alive in the Middle East, but this futuristic take on the premise is best left as a piece of distracting entertainment. Nevertheless, the atmosphere is no less suffocating, literally and dramatically.
Tom Clancy's Without Remorse has everything a movie director from the 80’s could wish.
Can a piece of bad representation truly be reclaimed? We Are Pat (2025) attempts to answer this question.
Overall, “Dark Fate” is a run-of-the-mill flick. Together, Reyes and Davis have excellent chemistry, but their characters’ story is nothing new, lacking surprise and deep emotion. During the middle points, the film drags considerably, and when the action hits, it feels consistently tight, eliminating the rhythm and fluidity of conflicts.
Like millions around the world, I've been waiting four years for the renowned #SnyderCut. I'll never forget sitting in the theater on opening night, witnessing a CGI mouth on Henry Cavill's face about five seconds into Justice League. That's a thing of nightmares if I must say. Anyways, right then and there, I knew I desperately needed Zack Snyder's film.
