A film full of emotions caused by stress and depression for many people. This is a movie about those people. Vulnerable in the face of a reality that shifts and suddenly turns unpredictable with dark humor in which some characters suffered undeniable pleasure of losing control trough madness.From the Argentine writer-director Damián Szifron who is expert in black comedy all the cast Liliana Ackerman, Luis Manuel Altamirano García, Alejandro Angelini, and more, were the best in this genre. This great film includes 6 Stories – 6 masterpieces! They perfectly combine thriller, drama, humor and the common topic is the violence. Each history is independent of the other, but all of them have something special that makes you really enjoy. All of them don’t have a weak point.
It’s clear that Szifrón has Almodóvar’s influence with satirize, social classes, justice, bureaucracy and marriage sensibility.
Definitely is very psychological movie full of revenge with some violence but in 122 minutes with compilation films, certain episodes (all are of different lengths) work better than others even all of them have sarcasm, dark humor sense but all the performances are very well structured and all the characters themselves to push them towards the abyss, making it as the best terrific Argentinean film.
Exodus, Gods and Kings is a great visual epic film

The biblical film based in Egypt has been the subject of racism since it boasts a predominately white cast in the main roles. Christian Bale, Joel Edgerton and Sigourney Weaver are cast in the centric roles while blacks portray servants, killers, and criminals. Using state of the art visual effects and 3D immersion, Scott brings new life to the story of the defiant leader Moses (Christian Bale) as he rises up against the Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses (Joel Edgerton), setting 600,000 slaves on a monumental journey of escape from Egypt and its terrifying cycle of deadly plagues. There are many perpetual violence in movies but this one is very justified for the Bible stories and relationship with God can have on an individual. Unfortunately, religion has been used to subjugate, oppress and demean way too many people for way too long. There will be viewers against this Hollywood production due religion is a sensitive subject and battle with their own disbeliefs. In my opinion, this is entertainment full of visual effects, moderate performances and great scenarios.

The beautiful, talented with great sense of humor Jennifer Lawrence was teased by friend Liam Hemsworth because of Lawerence’s “garlic breath” and “tuna breath” made it hard to finish their kissing scenes. Obviously, it was a prank by her. Lighten up and laugh. Both talented actors are in the famous movie The Hunger Games: Mockingjay.

A film full of desperate emotions, deep with many psychological elements for each character is really a clear image of the American elite use and abuse power toward those who don’t have money and opportunities. With a great cast and performances starting with Globe winner Steve Carell, Channing Tatum, Academy Award nominee Mark Ruffalo, Academy Award winner Vanessa Redgrave and Sienna Miller will do in 2 hr. 10 min that all the viewers will enjoy a magical story which Wrestler Dave Schultz was a year older than his brother Mark, but far more worldly. In 1983, at the Kiev World Championships, Dave won a gold medal. Mark sees a way to step out of the shadow of his charismatic brother, Dave (Mark Ruffalo). However, du Pont begins to lead Mark down a dark road, causing the athlete’s self-esteem to slip. Then the relationship with his new sponsor, millionaire John du Pont, as they train for the 1988 games in Seoul will be full of emotions until up to the entry of an abyss and tragedy that left the audience speechless. Written by E. Max Frye and Dan Futterman and definitely well directed by Bennett Miller. The movie’s melancholy atmosphere is truly compelling and perfectly acceptable. There are many beautiful landscapes, perfect makeup, characterization and costumes make the story look more real. Life never gives us all the answers we seek and sometimes we have to face adversity to get to win but without knowing the real price as humans confront people instead of helping us caused a great misfortune.
Red Army is a smart and incisive film

Red Army is a feature documentary by Gabe Polsky and talks about the Soviet Union and the most successful dynasty in sports history: the Red Army hockey team. Told from the perspective of its captain Slava Fetisov, the story portrays his transformation from national hero to political enemy. From the USSR to Russia, the film examines how sport mirrors social and cultural movements and parallels the rise and fall of the Red Army team with the Soviet Union.
With many black-and-white film clips this documentary talks to former superstar players, retired KGB officers, sports journalists and veteran bureaucrats.This includes good and bad experiences of glory days of the Soviet national ice hockey team. It also shows how Communism would be the best and worst for some athletes and the Red Army was a single unit, and how that was both the secret to their success, and also how they became outdated as larger economic circumstances changed the face of the country and national hockey. Obviously these great athletes had to face many issues like their personalities,politics, etc which led to the team from national hero to political enemy.
