The Limit of Sleeping Beauty A movie that will help people to deal with the death of a loved one using a sexy combination of sound and image. So much energy it made me want to dance with the girl. Ken Ninomiya is a talent to follow. 8/10

Saint Young Men Damn, wtf Japan?! This movie is about Jesus and Buddah living together as roommates in a Tokyo apartment. Their relationship is actually cute and the animation is beautiful. However this movie feels like random episodes from a tv show. It is based on a manga which probably works...

The Bird People in China (3rd viewing) Takashi Miike is best known for his twisted and violent movies. However, The Bird People in China proves how versatile as a director he actually is. This director has done so many movies in almost every genre. This movie takes us to breathtaking landscapes...

Lost in Translation (4th viewing) I've been watching this movie in different times of my life and it made me feel something new in each viewing. This can either be a story of love or friendship depending on the viewer's own experiences. About wanting to be noticed when you are lonely and feel...

Swing Girls (4th viewing) Honest and feel-good with a simple story and lovely characters. I enjoyed the Jazz music a lot, even though I'm not a fan. The characters show so much passion playing their instruments, they give me the will to learn Jazz too! And all these songs are performed by the...

Nymphomaniac (Director's Cut - 5h30) Speechless. This is LvT's best movie and an instant favourite. The feelings... it was too much for me. It's just so shocking and meaningful. Mindblowing. I knew nothing about it and now I won't stop thinking about it for a long time. Best movie I've seen in...

Tremble All You Want Great movie to watch after a breakup. That broken heart scene is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. The leading actress - Mayu Matsuoka - is incredible in this movie. Feels like she was born for this role. I cared so much for her character, we've all been there...

The Whispering Star (2nd viewing) This movie improved so much for me in my 2nd viewing. I watched it before in a hot and tiring Summer night when it first came out, I always thought that it didn't click on me because I wasn't in the right mood. After watching First Man, I felt like returning to...

Love Exposure (6th viewing) - Extended "THE TV-SHOW" This is what I personally believe to be the best film of all time from my favourite director Sion Sono. The story goes around religion, love, fetish and social standards and it all sums up in the best love story ever depicted in any movie...

One Cut of the Dead Movies about making movies are just the best! 8/10 The Third Murder Koreeda's worst. Very boring to watch. 4/10 Blade Runner 2049 So beautiful, I like it even more than the original. Watched it twice this year. 9/10 May the Devil Take You An indonesian Evil Dead. Fun...

That poster is great.

Let’s Go, Jets! It's your Swing Girls with dancers and that's okay. Loved Linda Linda Linda's reference. The girls' final show amazing. Suzu Hirose is pretty cute. 6/10 Watchmen (3rd viewing) Still one of the best comic-book adaptations I've ever seen. This is Zack Synder's best film. 8/10...

I guess it's safe in Jakarta :)

Ahahaha, great. I watched The Night Comes for Us the other day. No need to learn the moves though, people are very nice there :emoji_punch:

I'm actually from Portugal. I went to Thailand but unfortunately I had to come back to my country. However my heart is still in South East Asia, and lately I've been taking a few good decisions and getting the right connections to allow me to work from home. That means I can live pretty much...

Haven't posted in a long while. I've been too busy doing all preparations to live and work in Indonesia! :D Best stuff I've seen lately... The Conversation Great script, loved everything about it. Ending was very satisfying. 8/10 Mission: Impossible – Fallout Some of the best action sequences...

Venom Tom Hardy is good and his interaction with Venom is fun to watch, but the action sequences and the script are very disapointing. Should have been more violent just like Deadpool. 4/10 Ant-Man and the Wasp Ant-man is one of my favourite Marvel characters, but the story here feels like a...

Mandy is awesome. Once in a while we get stuff like this that is different from everything else. It's a very heavy film, very violent but full of beautiful moments. I loved how it made me fell for 2 hours. 8/10

Hard Boiled (2nd viewing) Still the best action film I've ever seen. Love how the environment gets destroyed during the action sequences. Story and characters are fun enough to keep my attention as well. 9/10 Bleach Just your average live-action anime adaptation. The actor who plays Ichigo was...

Once Upon a Time in America (2nd viewing) Beautiful film. Saw this for the first time in 10 years or so. Gets the feelings of nostalgia and friendship so well. The scenes with the kids stand out from the rest of the film, but there are many great moments when they become adults as well. Even...
