The Duellists: En Garde! It’s Ridley Scott’s Historical Drama Debut
Kapitalist düzen o kadar sinsi bir şekilde bizi köleleştirdi ki yaşarken artık düşünmez olduk. Bize ne sunuluyorsa onu aldık, bizden ne isteniyorsa onu yaptık ama hiç sorgulamadık. Üreticiliğimiz köreldi, bizim yerimize düşünüldü. Bizi gereksiz bir rekabete soktular. Sürekli yarıştık ama bu rekabetin sonunu, bize kaybettirdiklerini hiç düşünmedik. İhtiyacımız olmayan şeyler için zamanımızı ve enerjimizi harcadık.
Bir Sisteme Başkaldırı Destanı: Dövüş Kulübü
Merhaba filmseverler. Bugün bahsedeceğim filmin adı “Brother (2000)” değil. Yalnızca “Brother” (-ki siz bunu zaten fark ettiniz). Filme kült deme sebebim de buradan geliyor. İnternette arattığımda film hakkında bilgi bulmakta çok zorlandım. Hatta hiç bulamadım bile. “Brother (2000)” yazdığım zaman bazı sahneleri çıkmaya başladı ve dedim ki: “İyi ki filmi bilen ve sevenler varmış.” Türkçeye […]
En Baba Kült Film: Brother (2000)
Çok uzun bir zaman sonra izlediğim ilk normal 🙂 film oldu. İki sene önce gösterime girdiğinde izleme listeme almıştım ancak anlamadığım bi şekilde o zamandan beri bir türlü fırsat olmadı. Nasıl olduysa geçtiğimiz hafta sonu bir anda aklıma geldi ve izlemeye karar verdim. Enteresan ki internette altyazılı versiyonu bulamadım. Ve ancak Vuzee üzerinden orijinal alt […]
Hubie Halloween ⭐️⭐️ I’d say it’s even money if Sandler tries to make the worst comedy movie ever. Surely it would be funny if his team tried, and maybe the reality is they attempt to make a movie so bad that it’s meant to be funnier? How does one set out to make an intentionally […]
Will Adam Sandler Really Try To Make The Worst Comedy Movie Ever?
After Christine Collins (Angelina Jolie)’s only son Walter (Gattlin Griffith) goes missing, she reaches out to the LAPD to help her find him. They find a boy fitting her son’s description five months later, but she insists that he is not her son. This is a film I was always aware of since its release […]

The In-and-Out Bandit – Honest Thief (2020)
Patty Jenkins has been honest in recent “Wonder Woman 1984” interviews about what it’s like to clash with a Hollywood studio over a comic book tentpole. The director has detailed battles against Warner Bros. over the original ending to “Wonder Woman” and over the double opening of “Wonder Woman 1984,” but Jenkins was at her…
I’m not going to lie—I almost didn’t make a top ten list of my favorite films released in 2020. It was a weird year with a lot of movies that I enjoyed but wasn’t frequently blown away by, not to mention the fact that I have a pile of films I haven’t gotten to watch […]
Höstsonaten: Güz Sonatı (İnceleme) Öncelikle Ingmar Bergman sinemasına bakmamız gerekiyor; 1918 yılında İsveç’in Uppsala kentinde doğan Ingmar Bergman çocukluğu trajedik olaylar yüzüne sıkıntılı geçer, bir nevi “Sevgisiz” büyümüştür. Filmlerinde hep Tanrı’yı aramıştır. Her ne kadar babası papaz olsa da hazıra konmamış ve hep bir arayış içerisinde olmuş ve sorgulamıştır ki bu Kış Işığı filmine bakılırsa […]

Filmimizin orijinal adı ‘In to the Wild ‘ Türkçeye ‘ Özgürlük Yolu ‘ olarak çevrilmiş. Filmin […]
“Bence kariyer denen şey bir 20. yüzyıl icadıdır ve ben bir kariyer istemiyorum.”
The Alliance of Women Film Journalists have announced that their pick for the best of 2020 is Nomadland. Just as the AWFJ did with their nominations, they announced the winners in an exclusive for Variety. Fear not, though — my picks for the best of 2020 will be released exclusively to this site. Two can […]
The Alliance of Women Film Journalists Honor Nomadland
They called them “B-Movies:” genre films (westerns, noir, horror, sci-fi, etc.) made on shoestring budgets with leads played by actors, not stars; directors who were journeymen, not auteurs. The 1950s were their heyday, and they played great on a rainy Saturday afternoon. They looked disposable then but watching them now is like discovering a cultural […]
Thanks to my parents I watched my fair share of epic films growing up. The big three that we would watch at least once a year were Ben-Hur (1959), The Ten Commandments (1956) and Spartacus (1960). The latter is set out as a (very loose) retelling of the story of Spartacus (a real person by […]
My Thoughts on: Spartacus (1960)
It’s hard to keep track of all the TV shows available to us, but 2020 did treat us to some gems. This post won’t necessarily be highlighting shows released solely in 2020 but shows that caught my attention throughout the year. Here are the best TV shows I watched in 2020. The Boys (Season 2): […]

Every moment he felt that … he was drawing nearer and nearer to what terrified him. —Leo Tolstoy, The Death of Ivan Ilyich Ivan Beckman (Danny Huston) is one of those Hollywood agents that earn enough to afford a home in the hills, but not a palatial one. Parties enough to have a reputation, but not hard […]
Natalie was an architect who hated PG-13 romantic comedies. Along with her low self-esteem prevented her from meeting her someone special. So despite her best friend telling her that her work buddy had a crush on her, she doubted it. One day, she was mugged at the subway station and woke […]
Movie Review: Isn’t It Romantic?
The Crawleys go to Duneagle Castle to celebrate Christmas with the MacClares. Unfortunately, when the Crawleys return, tragedy strikes. This was a feature length Christmas special episode that wrapped up series 3 back in 2012 and was also Matthew Crawley (Dan Stevens)’s final episode. Watching this show back again after seeing the original run feels […]

4 Shots From 4 Films is just what it says it is, 4 shots from 4 of our favorite films. As opposed to the reviews and recaps that we usually post, 4 Shots From 4 Films lets the visuals do the talking. I should admit that, despite the title of this post, I’m not really […]
