lol. I hope this stat will force MCU to rethink things and properly structure future projects better because right now, there is basically zero incentive to see anything MCU, I might be over stretching but i think they held "L" for all their releases this year.... pathetic.

The way Disney fell way hard this year is startling. Person wey get SEVEN $1BN movies not long ago in 2019!!

GOTG3 is the ONLY Disney film to be successful this year. The rest are underperformances or outright flops.

Premium stone cold acting from Julianne Moore. Charles Melton also did really good including Natalie Portman.
Nice movie looking into the thought process of a master manipulator and child sex offender.

Lol, I no see bress Shi Shi and I been dey expect am.
Well, it's centred on a then 36yr old woman who had an affair with a 13yr old boy or so and they both claimed to be in love. She served time for her actions but they still ended up getting married after her jail time. And then comes an actress who wants to portray and tell their weird story to the world.

Ogbeni, Closer is in my watchlist for a while now, but Natalie Portman no get bress or yansh to be enthusiastic about to rush watch am sef. She's very pretty and attractive and a very competent actor, but the other deliverables? No expect anything. 😭😭

The Flowers of War (2011)......8.5/10
Chinese

This movie was set in wartime China during the Sino-Japanese war. And its plot is centred on the city of Nanking — the horrors of that encounter is more popularly known today as the "Rape of Nanking".
Women and children were killed, assaulted and raped and not exempted from the brutality that awaited their male counterparts. The men kinda had it better if you looked at it in the perspective of the women, since the men were mostly assured of quick deaths dying bravely for thy fatherland.

There's also the subplot of a foreigner who initially was selfish and planned on fulfilling his lust even at the expense of others but somewhat found a higher purpose in being the sole protector of the endangered ladies holed up at the convent. It turns into a Romance halfway into the movie but never really loses its focus on the central plot.

Impressive use of musical score, nice cinematography and great battle sequences to remind you it's a war movie. Top acting performance from the whole cast.

At some point the movie became a sorrowful watch. It was heartbreaking and filled with various emotions. You're angered at some point with the _prostitutes being cowards and allowing kids shield them from pitiful fates and their total indifference to the war and suffering. Then you're impressed with the sex-workers rising to the occasion to shield the kids from impending doom, then you're filled with a sorrowful realisation of their sacrifice while not fully knowing how each one's fate might turn out.
Omo, it's an epic battle of emotions. Sorrow and hopelessness from start to finish.


Kudos to Christian Bale and the child actors especially who gave life and character to the movie.
Masterful direction from Zhang Yi-mou with the characterization, tempo and grueling end.


Watching films like this, I somewhat understand why China has promised itself to not be at the mercy of anyone and decided to take their destiny with their bare hands. That era was marked as the "Century of Humiliation" under Japanese and Western subjugation. You'd want to understand them for their quest for global dominance. The Japs show these people Shégé sha.
Also a cautionary note to people who always love to preaching war and violence without fully grasping the consequences.

Past Lives..... 7.5/10

Finally!!
Nice movie. Just reminds me mostly of "Lost In Translation".
The movie was good but I'm hardly seeing the hype. Much less the Oscars push.

Greta Lee is a good actress tho.

In a year where you had so many bottom barrel flicks like "Ghosted", "65", "Paint" etc? Yeah, The year was filled with so much shaft that this is easily one of the best movies out this year, in a stronger year, it might be debatable, but for a horrid year like this, an oscar shout is definitely valid. The big oscar prizes might elude it tho.

Hmm.... The only viable category at the Oscars I see for it is Best Actress which is increasingly becoming a fairytale based on this season campaigns.

I don't think anyone would be too keen on looking her and the movie toommuch sef especially after Everything Everywhere All At Once swept the major awards this year. So no Asian propaganda or diversity push this time around.

I'm trying to wonder if the movie's praise was truly organically natural or was most likely looked more fondly because of EEAAO and everyone wanting to join the new political liberal diversity propaganda.
Cos since this award season got to full climax since late October, this film has virtually disappeared from the discourse.

Best actress, Best director and best original screenplay are the realistic chances it has, I don't think it is eligible for best foreign language category. But in my honest opinion, best original screenplay but be the only one it can win. They are far more bigger titles competing for the big prizes that seriously dwarfs it's chances.

I can't really get a read if the praises where organic or not as "A24" features tend to get alot of praises, some times unnecessarily because of thier past good precedent.

I don't think it has a chance in Best Director in comparison to Bradley Cooper, Nolan, Yorghos, Emerald Fennel, Greta Gerwig, Blitz Bazawule, Marty Scorcese etc.
I'm somewhat ruling Greta Lee out of the chat for Best Actress. I might be wrong tho.

But you're right, Best Original Screenplay is it's biggest chance since it's prolly the frontrunner alongside Saltburn since the majority of the big boys are all adapted screenplays.
