Fahrenheit 11/9 (2018)
Micheal Moore’s new film, is showing a few pieces of the ‘Trump era’ and it’s consequences. Moore also shows that he is not glorifying Obama or Hilary (anymore – remember Michael Moore in TrumpLand ? ). It presents many things that the mainstream media in the US or even Europe are not talking about – how Bernie got screwed by the DN*C, Obama drinking koolaid in Flint. The ‘Trump dubbed Hitler’ and the ‘Hawaii false alarm emergency broadcast’ are quite strong. All that served in typical for Michael Moore style.
Cam (2018)
A very well done character driven thriller. The Main character is Cam girl, the writer was a Cam Girl, which explains why it doesn’t feel artificial or fake ( although the movie is fictional). All characters are solid and don’t feel pointless. It is really a decent piece of a thriller.
and if you don’t have enough listen to the podcast that hosted Isa Mazzei and Daniel Goldhaber:
…and if you still don’t have enough listen to this episode of ‘Switchblade Sisters’ podcast that may make you watch ‘Jennifer’s Body’ (again):
Upgrade (2018)
I like the design of the ‘futuristic’ cars, with the exception of the ‘self driving’ gold box.
The film itself is quite impressive, including gory fight scenes. The idea of the upgrade itself reminds a bit of Robocop (1987).
