Gone Girl

I had no idea what to expect from this movie and it kept surprising me over and over. It’s already pretty long but I wish it kept going for a bit longer.
Monster - The Ed Gein Story

I can totally see this being decent if they stripped away at least half of it and made 3 or 4 decent episodes, but in true Netflix fashion they opted for 8 bad ones instead.
A show that doesn’t really know what it wants to say, with a pacing so awful that often killed any sort of interest in what was going on.
EA Sports FC 25

I know, I know. It’s EA. But I love football and there’s enough good here to let me live the fantasy of a career mode.
The menus are a complete mess and half of them don’t work most of the time, but the gameplay is cool. I’ve founded Polenta FC and have had a blast managing the club.
No Man's Sky

I’ve played this game on and off since 2021, and surprisingly never stopped to give it a review.
It’s a dream come true, honestly. Space exploration at its finest, exploring worlds is always fun, there’s so much to do and still the best thing to do is nothing. I love just walking around a pretty planet and taking screenshots of the amazing views. Whatever problems it has just fade away in the vastness of space.
I absolutely adore the dialogues, too. So many existential quotes that just hit the right spot.

Watching this movie feels like a nightmare. Things happen and you really don’t have much say in it, then they start spiraling out of control and you’re completely unable to do anything. You can’t run, yell or fight.
The religious allegories are quite obvious and are great, but that nightmarish feeling was really something I hadn’t felt with a movie before.
Skeletá

Every single Ghost album improves on the last, and this is no exception. Every single song in this is a banger, with special mentions to Lachryma, Satanized, De Profundis Borealis and Umbra. These might just be the top 4 Ghost songs ever for me.
I gotta say though, the album as a whole is not as cohesive as IMPERA was. It has better songs individually, but IMPERA felt like a better album (at least on first listen) because every song complements each other. Skeletá doesn’t have a single musical identity like that, but whatever it’s doing, every song works individually.
Jojo Rabbit

A beautiful movie about innocence during a time that wanted nothing but to prey on it. I’d love to say it’s all in the past.
The Last of Us (Season 2)
Reviewed on Jun 26, 2025
Breaks my heart because I love the game, but this adaptation just didn’t do it for me. Season 1 was pretty good, but I feel like none of the changes on Season 2 worked. Ellie is just a completely different character, and I feel like none of her actions are justified in the show. I gotta say some of the heaviest moments hit really hard on the show too. Episodes 2 and 6 were standouts though. Really enjoyed those.
The Taking of Deborah Logan
Reviewed on Jun 15, 2025
Holy crap, now this is a good horror movie. A slow burn that really pays off. Its found footage structure makes perfect sense in the story and also reflects a lot on what you think and feel during the entire movie. It finds the perfect balance of explaining things enough to be satisfying but not enough to break the horror aspect (something that most movies just suck at).
Spirited Away
Reviewed on Jun 14, 2025
Okay, first of all I think this is an amazing movie, it looks and sounds amazing, all the characters are extremely creative, it’s a beautiful coming-of-age story and it’s a major pop culture icon. But watching it felt like a bit of a chore, I can’t really explain why. Good thing the ratings here are about my enjoyment of the movies, not their “objective” quality 😅

Pretty solid body horror movie. Some real memorable scenes with really good acting, with a solid story that builds on top of the classic Cinderella. Can’t go wrong with this one!

What an incredibly beautiful movie 🥺
Without any dialogue, it was able to make me connect to every character much more than most movies do. Cute and heartwarming, it totally deserved the Oscar for best animation it got!
Schindler's List

A real punch in the gut and a must-watch. Not much more that can be said.
Fuck nazis.
Supernatural (Season 7)
Reviewed on Apr 20, 2025
This one was a tough watch. After the good surprise that Season 6 was, this one never really stuck the landing. It gives up the plot that Season 6 sets in like 15 minutes and then just drags on for 23 episodes. I never really knew if I should take a scene seriously or if it was meant to be a comic relief - and to be honest, if feels like the show didn’t know either.
I gotta say the Bobby arc on the second half of the season was pretty good, though.
The Hobbit - The Battle of the Five Armies
Reviewed on Apr 20, 2025
Has some pretty amazing moments and is overall very good, but just like the first one, it overdoes the action scenes, with one after another. So it ends up feeling bloated. Not enough to make it a bad movie, far from it! I never understood why the Hobbit movies are so underrated.
The Hobbit - The Desolation of Smaug
Reviewed on Apr 13, 2025
The first time I watched this one back in 2013, I remember not enjoying it as much as I enjoyed the first. But now, I think it’s much better.
I think it could be a bit goofier overall, but I pretty much enjoyed everything in this rewatch (except for the out-of-place romance). Smaug’s scenes are simply amazing, too.
Severance (Season 2)
Reviewed on Apr 05, 2025
An overall disappointing season, but the ending was fantastic.
It feels like they had enough story for 4 episodes but were forced to make 10. So the good things are stretched out between a lot of plots that don’t really go anywhere (and that I honestly didn’t care about).
The Hobbit - An Unexpected Journey
Reviewed on Mar 30, 2025
Judge me, but I actually like The Hobbit movies. This is my first rewatch since it came out in 2012, and while this one has a few too many action scenes (which are fun, just get tiresome after 3 hours), it’s still a really good movie in an universe I love.
Sure, its quality never matches the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but to be honest I don’t think anything else ever will.
Adolescence
Reviewed on Mar 21, 2025
Binge-watched this in one sitting. Very powerful, all its 4 episodes are shot on a single take and that really brings you into the room with the characters.
The final montage is beautiful, too. Bonus points for having one of my favorite songs.
