A compilation of reviews since I have been quite inactive.
1. Trap (Movie)
Started watching this randomly. Good premise. Kept me hooked. Was quite unpredictable. Much less movies inculcate this feeling lately. So, a solid 9/10. It really was a good movie, must watch.
Quite intense. And genuinely a good premise.
Not gonna lie, honestly started rooting for the butcher so that he doesn't get caught, the perspectives matter a lot, the way and pov the movie is shown. I went like, oh shit he's gonna get caught, and then I caught myself like, bruh, we want him to get caught. So yep, perspectives...the point of view that is portrayed...is quite important. Good movie though, 9/10.
2. Currently watching: Zom 100
First episode is a piece of art, I’m at episode 6, the whole anime up to now is a pievce of art, but episode one is especially profound, the feeling they wish to define is so beautifully captured, the weight, the tiredness, the exhaustion, the gloom. And this one has so much absurdity that makes it so so so good. Loving it honestly. The animation is beautiful and Akira is so so so nice and crazy and funny, heinculcates the feeling of wanting to live life, zombies all around, I can die today or 60 years later, so I would focus on doing things I want to do before that day comes. Going around on a bike, climbing down a pipe because he’s out of beer, confessing his love to a zombie co-worker, pushing the zombie CEO down the building. The man is absurd and I honestly love it. I aspire to be as free as he is. I really like Akira because his reasoning for things is something I can slightly resonate to. Only slightly. But I really do like this character and his way of things. Looking forward to watching more of this.
Also, the shark scene very much reminded me of Gyo by Junji Ito.
3. Wind Breaker
I’m actually at Season 2 and as much as I love this anime, I kinda took a pause at Season 2 and now I will have to put in some effort to go back to it.
Season 1 and especially the cinematic end to Season 1 and the beginning of Season 2 was so SO good. I really loved it. I also love Ume San a lot. I love how he is so strong, so carefree, and so grounded. I love how he is so warm and encouraging, how he laughs so often, does not care to keep an appearance for the sake of anything. I love characters like that, warm, kind and nurturing, serious and strong when there needs an air of command. It’s so cool. I want to be like that as well.
To get the review back on track, I was talking about this Show.
The anime is quite great, Sakura is such a cutie, I also love the premise of being shown how he has never felt any warmth and when he does, the way he blushed, is confused, the way he deals with it. I love seeing him get the warmth and also learn things. It’s really really heart-warming.
I also loved the fight he had with Togame.
And the way depression is showcased in Tomiyama.
One thing to note, however is that, the translation or the dialogues, I don’t know if actual, often feel so full of innuendos. It is so utterly noticeable that either I’m in a trance or it really is on purpose.
The dialogues that go: Seems like theyr’re really rubbing off on each other, and etc, I can’t quite remember the rest, but there are many moments where I hear them say something and go like ??? huh????
But the show is quite nice, quite warm. I shall complete the rest and come back to it.
The rope scene is also very brilliantly executed, honestly, the metaphors are very very beautifully executed and the words are really pretty.
4. Black Panther
So, I finally watched Black Panther.
After a lonngggggggggg overdue watch.
But in my defense, I found out Chadwick had cancer and he really passed away and all that just made me really sad and I never had the heart to watch this movie.
But, then, my boyfriend made me watch it.
And here's my review and some random observations or theories that might be accurate or inaccurate or nothing at all.
When I saw the suit shuri made (BTW I LOVE SHURI, I have always loved her.) so yeah, anyways, the suit Shuri made, I saw it and I thought about is it somehow an example of the story, like you know. There were 3 options, our King chose the silver one, Erik chose the golden one. When T'challa was selecting one, he looked at the golden and spoke about how it was tempting but we don't want the eyes to be drawn.
So, I take that scene in two ways, one it resembles not exactly but just slightly that one story of you know, as I write this, it seems more inaccurate. I was gonna say it resembles the story of the part where you select the gold silver bronze and it represents your will.
Kinda something like that.
The other thing I infer from there, is that how T'challa spoke that we don't want the eyes to be drawn towards us, and how in the end, they went out to the world.
So, yep, contrast showcased brilliantly?
Then, one thing I am curious about, is that, do they not have debates? Ofcourse they do. They're the most advanced country in the world, probably.
The question though is, why so much in extremes.
As you know, they could have just discussed and helped the world as well while being very lowkey
Also which side do you guys rely on.
I shall continue this review later because I got interrupted and I can't quite remember my trail of thought.
5. Swapped
GO WATCH IT. No review required, just trust me, go watch it. Very cute movie. Made me slightly sentimental, but, very very very beautiful.
