Thor Ragnarok is better than the previous films, but this is not quite a merit since the last 2 Thor films are only medium, but Thor: Ragnarok is a good movie, this time it's a comedy movie, it's not like other movies of Marvel that has only jokes in the movies, this is comedy itself and this is clear at the beginning of the film, I was disappointed by this fact, a character like Thor and a story like Ragnarok that is '' just '' the end of the world Nordic can not be that, it has to be a heavy and shocking movie too, but it is not the case, the film has good moments of action, but nothing surprising, sometimes the jokes are well forced, it does not always work, but there are moments that are very funny, the characters in the movie are cool, Hela is an interesting villain, Thor in the movie does not please me, and the Hulk has a cool participation, and Tessa Thompson who does Valkyrie is the character I like the most film, she commands very well, the special effects of the film have to Some problems, but they're good, Thor: Ragnarok is good, but it could have been a lot better. Note 7.5

Phantom Thread is the last movie of the legend Daniel Day-Lewis, winner of 3 Oscar for best actor, and the perfect farewell would be to win an Oscar, but I believe it will not happen (Gary Oldman will take), but Daniel Day-Lewis Vicky Krieps is excellent in the film and should not be anything to Daniel, Lesley Manville is great and the rest is very well too, the soundtrack is beautiful, the wardrobe is very good and the direction of Paul Thomas Anderson is great, Phantom Thread is very good and deserves to be seen, even more because it is probably the farewell of the great Daniel Day-Lewis. Note 8.6

Blade Runner 1982 is an immortal class of science fiction, one of the most important movies in the cinema and that inspired several films that came later and more than 30 years later the film gains a continuation that most of the fan did not want, but ended up surprising the fan and also those who do not fan for being a very good movie, but the question is, is it better than the original equal many people are talking about, in my opinion no, I find the classic of 82 much higher than that, I like Denis Villeneuve, who made the excellent Arrival, but I admit that I expected that I would like the film more, technically the film is perfect, spectacular photography, beautiful visual effects and beautiful moments visually, but the film is very still, it is bigger than necessary and has very tiring parts, the action scenes did not excite me so much, and the dialogues, even though they were good, could not keep me as close to the movie as the classic one left me, the actions are c and the direction is one of the highlights of the film, Blade Runner 2049 is better than we expected, did not disappoint the fans. Note 8.1

Black Panther is in fact all that they are talking about, if a few years ago I did not know the Black Panther Hero, when he appears in Civil War surprised me and 2 years later he wins a movie Solo, Black Phanter still continues in the Marvel formula, is a film that has jokes and has that comic tone, but it can still be different from the others, it implements the African culture very well in the film, it has a sensational soundtrack and a beautiful photograph, there are moments that can make a picture of so beautiful they are, and the story is very well told, merit to the great direction of Ryan Coogler who is a very good director and who has not erred, the cast is very good, Chadwick Boseman plays the character very well and can demonstrate expressions Michael B.Jordan is great as Killmonger, he is undoubtedly next to Loki the 2 best MCU videos, and he has the best motivation too, you can understand his motives and have times that you are not even angry with him, Lupita Nyong'o is great, Danai Gurira is one of the most interesting characters in the movie, Letita Wright is fine and the chemistry of her character with her brother T'CHalla is very good, Martin Freeman has a participation bigger than I imagined I liked him in the movie, Daniel Kaluuya is fine but I did not really like his character and his decisions in the film, I found it a bit forced, and the rest of the cast is competent, Andy Serkis is very good in the film as Ullyses Klaue, the action scenes of the film are good, but nothing surprising, there is no scene that will make you remember her after you leave the cinema, the film has a lot of politics involved and the film ends competently, Black Panther is a film, a of the best MCU movies, and possibly the most important film Marvel has ever made. Note 9.0

I never know what to expect from the Guilhermo Del Toro films, he is a director who made the spectacular El Laberinto del Fauno which is one of the best fantasy films of the genre, but the rest of his filmography I've never been much of a fan of his films, Cronos is a good movie, The Devil's Backbone is cool, but I expected more, Blade and Hellboy I admit I have not watched yet, Pacific Rim disappointed me a lot, even though it's cool too and Crimson Peak is pretty weak and now comes The Shape of Water that is placed as one of the favorites to win the Oscar for best film, and look I think it will win (even with defeat in the golden globe), is one of the best films of 2017 without doubts, a touching and very beautiful film Guilhermo Del Toro does a great job with the characters in the film, but it is not a good idea to have a good ending. your best I work in directing, he does wonderful scenes and there are moments that would give an excellent picture to put on the wall, and in my view he deserves to win Oscar for best director, the film does not lose its rhythm, I do not like romance, but it was Impossible not to like the chemistry of the protagonist Elisa with the amphibious creature, the relationship of the 2 is very well built, the cast is excellent, Sally Hawkins made my favorite female performance of 2017 and I will hope her win the Oscar, she can transmit emotions Even without talking about the film, it's hard for you not to get infected with the character and cheer for her in the film, Michael Shannon is fine as always, you feel angry about your character, even if he has moments that he is a bit generic, but I liked the character in the film, Octavia Spencer is great, I really liked her character and how she is also built her relationship with Elisa, you see that it is a true friendship between the two, and even in difficult times help one another, Ric hard Jenkins is great too, is a character who also has a nice friendship with Elisa and he has a very important role in the film, Doug Jones the actor who always is with Guilhermo Del Toro, is an actor who deserves more recognition for his work, he is always characters that uses a lot of makeup, but he can handle very well always, the creature that is even very well made and looks great, not to mention the beauty of the creature, the rest of the cast is also very competent, the trail Alexandre Desplat's sound is impeccable, it's a smooth and great listening track, a great favorite in the Oscar of the best soundtrack and if you win it's going to be very well deserved, The Shape of Water is a masterpiece, a touching, romantic and very beautiful film , with excellent scenes, impeccable performances, an incredible direction from Del Toro and a very original and very well done script, is a great competitor to take Oscar for best film. Note 10

Coco Pixar new animation is undoubtedly one of the best films of 2017 and possibly the best animation of 2017, Pixar hits again and even being a slightly different animation can keep the essence of the animations of pixar and thrill to those who watch, had moments in the film that made me remember my grandmother, the protagonist Miguel is well developed, charismatic and fun, the animation is very well done, has even moments she has an impressive level of detail, the soundtrack is sensational, the song Remember Me is beautiful, but in the innovation issue is not so much, is a predictable animation, Coco is a love letter from pixar music and mexico, a very beautiful animation and with exciting moments, there is a special scene that is very beautiful. Note 8.6

Battle of the Sexes had the potential to be a lot better than it was, it has a cool story, the direction of Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris is good and he manages to direct very cool and dynamic tennis scenes, but he fret in character development and in scenes that should be dramatic enough to fiddle with the viewer, have scenes that had a lot of potential to be very exciting but the medium script and a direction that makes a lot of mistakes seems to be just a forced scene, the cast that stands out is Steve Carrel in a good performance and Emma Stone that is also very well, but honestly neither of them is level to be indicated to oscar, is a movie that when it ends is going to be a feeling of disappointment of something that could have been much better. Note 6.0

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is a film that portrays something that unfortunately is happening nowadays, after the Hollywood scandals where it had many accusations against actors on sexual harassment, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri tells the story of a mother who is interpreted of impeccable way by Frances McDormand and that possibly will take the Oscar for best actress in the Oscar 2018 that decides to put three billboards on a road that is little used to get the attention of the case that was not solved of a brutal roar and murder of its daughter, is a film that has a great script, but I found the film slow, the direction of Martin McDonagh is good, but not impressive, the performances besides Frances McDormand that steals the film, we have Woody Harrelson making a character that is no longer in the his career, Sam Rockwell who is very well, Peter Dinklage, Lucas Hedges and etc, the way the story is conducted did not excite me at all Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri is a good movie, has many quality, Frances McDormang is impeccable and carries the film, but I expected more. Note 7.7

Speak what you want from Christopher Nolan, but it is undeniable he always brings different things in relation to his previous films, is a director who does not get stuck in a genre, something that Stanley Kubrick and Steven Spielberg do too, he has already brought super films hero who was the good trilogy of Batman that had the good Batman Begins and The Dark Knight Rises and the excellent The Dark Knight, brought what I consider his masterpiece, the science fiction Interstellar that is one of my favorite movies, brought also the suspense Amnesia that is very good, has Inception, The Prestige, all great movies, and now he ventures into a War movie, Dunkirk who is one of the quoted to be nominated in oscar in most of the categories, Dunkirk is not a war movie that anyone will like, it's a different war movie, it's one of the most realistic, do not expect to see charismatic and striking characters, it's a cold, emotionless movie, but that's one of the film's triumphs, show the war the way it is, something where there is no protagonsita, only people who are trying to survive at all costs, the film does not have incredible performances, but all the actors are well, including the Harry Styles that had controversy when he was cast , but it does its role very competently, the film technically speaking is perfect, spectacular sound effects, if you have a good audio at home will feel in the middle of the war, the movie has good action scenes, but there are few , so does not expect something level Saving Private Ryan, the film has its problems, the film is divided into 3 characters, Tommy who is played by the good and new Fionn Whitehead, Farrier who is played by Tom Hardy and Mr. Dawson who is played by Mark Rylance that in the act issue is the most outstanding actor, but already these parts are the ones that I least liked, I found tiresome and slow, even with the character of Cilliam Murphy involved in these parts, I did not like it so much, and Christopher Nolan stands out for his great direction, one of the favorites in the Oscar without doubts, Dunkirk is not the best film of Nolan and nor is the best War film already done, it is very realistic, it has an extraordinary visual and sound effects spectacular and has a great direction of Nolan, but sins in some moments that makes the film have a break of pace. Note 8.8

I did not watch Tommy Wiseau's The Room so maybe if I watch it I like it even more The Disaster Artist, which I really liked the movie, is a biographical movie with a good humor and good performances, The Room is considered the worst movie ever made, and to make a biography of how it was the production of this film is a challenge, and manages to be an engaging film and that does not lose the rhythm in no time, James Franco is the director and the protagonist in the film, is without doubts its better film as director, already as an actor is arguable, he commands very well, the makeup is very well done and at the time of having to be a bad actor he commands very well too, Dave Franco does a competent performance, and the rest of the cast does well its part, the characterization is great, the actors look very much like the real people, the soundtrack is cool and the end of the movie is very good and funny, the movie has its slips, dialogs cliches, and I did not like that Tommy Wiseau seems to act poorly until when it's not in the movie, and some characters have been misused, but The Disaster Artist is very good and worth watching. 8.1

I expected more from Loving Vincent, unfortunately the animation could not move me, it did not excite me and did not leave me interested in the film, I found a boring movie even though it is a short film, the quality of the animation is incredible, you are watching the Van painting Gogh, is impressive, the voice work is good and competent, is not the best biography of the painter, has better options, but ta far from being a bad movie, worth the quality of animation and can also thrill other people, but unfortunately did not get the movie. Note 6.4

I, Tonya was a great surprise for me, a movie that is fun and has a good mood even having strong scenes with aggression and insults, is a story that has many sad moments, is a movie that the public will be angry at many moments , the character of Sebastian Stan is hateable, I was very angry with him and with his attitudes, it's okay that Tonya is no saint, but Jeff Gillooly is an asshole, the performances are excellent, Margot Robbie does his best career performance , it is incredible how this actress is evolving, she manages to bring a dramatic performance and with a good mood in many moments, the film has a bit of documentary, where the main characters appear telling the story and the cool thing is that sometimes Tonya interacts with somebody who is commenting on the story, it was really cool this balcony, the soundtrack is not bad, but it's quite forgettable in my opinion, the makeup work is great, and the direction is very good, but the film has its I do not think the relationship of Tonya and Jeff Gillooly well forced sometimes, there are moments that I found very exaggerated and I do not believe that it has. happened in this way in real life, I think they will vilanize Jeff too much, even if he was an asshole in real life, I, Tonya is very good, was a great surprise and Margot Robbie does a performance that makes her a strong competitor to the prize of better actress. Note 8.4

Blade Runner had a huge influence on many movies, series and Sci-Fy games is huge, we see games like Deus Ex and Perfect Dark that are classic games, or even the manga Ghost in the Shell, Blade Runner has an impressive world creation, when you see the photograph with that gray and dark tone with huge building lights, the culture created in this universe is fantastic, you can say what you want from Ridley Scott today, but the guy has created 2 phenomena that is Alien and Blade Runner and deserves respect, the cast is good, Harrison Ford in another outstanding character of his career, he is very well, Rutger Hauer is another who makes a remarkable performance and speaks the best phrase of the film in the end, the rest of the cast is very competent and Ridley Scott's direction is great, he manages to make the film not lose the rhythm and so leaving him in no time tiring, the soundtrack is good, the makeup is excellent, the story of the movie is good, but it is not something ine I think the film could have been a bit bigger and even with good performances, and one problem that has in the original version is that it has badly made narratives that should not tar in the movie they are spoken by Harrison Ford to make it easier to tell the story, but fortunately this was taken in the Final Cut version which is the best version of the film and was the one I watched, Blade Runner is one of the most influential films in the cinema, with an ambiance Incredible, Ridley Scott has created an extraordinary and detailed world, one of the best films of the genre and perhaps the most influential. Note 9.5

Una Mujer Fantástica is the great representative of Chile in the Golden Globe and possibly not Oscar that happened in March, is a great film that has a very good premise and that speaks a lot of prejudice too, the cast is competent, but the highlight is for the impeccable performance by Daniela Vega who is great as a protagonist, she can transmit in an excellent way the feeling of the character, the direction is very good, soundtrack combines with the atmosphere of the film, has some slow and tiring moments, and lacked development of other characters , but it is a very good film and will probably take the Golden Globe. Note 8.3

Sausage Party is a big disappointment to me, I was very excited to watch, I was sure that I would like the movie, especially because it has a humor that I like a lot, but then I was very disappointed with the movie and its forced humor, the jokes of the film sometimes goes beyond the limit, the jokes are very adult but even so sometimes it exaggerates, hits in a few moments, but are very rare, the voice work is good but Seth Rogen has to stop playing characters with almost always the same personality and his character in this film is no different, there are still Kristen Wiig, Nick Kroll, Michael Cera, Salma Hayek, Paul Rudd, James Franco, Edward Norton and etc, is a great cast, but many misused and that it's very possible you do not even notice when it does appear, the story of the movie is interesting and had potential, but it's wasted, the final scene is pretty bland and exaggerated for a change, Sausage Party is disappointing, bad and potentially wasted. Note 3.0

Brazilian cinema has always had enough quality and could easily have won the Oscar for best foreign film for the excellent City of God, but this year the film was not nominated, but at least it got 4 nominations, including in the best director category and it was a great made, but never managed to win the Oscar, but Bingo: The King of the Morning was a big bet to finally get this prize, but will not get again because it was not among the pre-competitors, but still a lot of people consider Bingo: The King of the Morning The best Brazilian film since City of God, I disagree, is a good movie, but in that time frame had better movies, it is a movie that has a narrative style a bit like Birdman won from Oscar best film in 2014, and the plot is based on the real story of Arlindo Barreto who was the Bozo clown in Brazil, the film he is good, has great moments, and good performances, Vladimir Britcha is excellent the movie has a problem in the dramatic scenes, it stretches a lot and sometimes it's a little forced, it could be shorter the scenes, some characters are very caricature and there are others that no relevance in the film and could be easily cut from the film, the direction of Daniel Rezende is very competent but I think he could have taken better advantage of some actors, I did not like the son of the protagonist that is interpreted by Cauã Martins, I think he's not so important in the movie, Bingo: The King of the Morning is a good movie, but it could have been better. Note 7.5

Lady Bird recently made history as Rotten Tomatoes' most highly rated film (which was lost shortly after and came back to Toy Story 2 and has a very positive rating on Metacritic which is 94, I admit I did not find this masterpiece that the criticism found, is a good movie, but I found it slow and did not see so much originality too, reminiscent of Boyhood for example, the plot he is good, but it is nothing impressive, but the performances are above average, Saiorse Ronan every time Laurie Metcalf is great in the film, and the rest of the cast in my opinion is fine, but not as well as the two mentioned, and Greta Gerwid does. a great directorial debut, does a great job, but her direction is not something to win the Oscar, because it's not a difficult direction, it's not hard to imagine Lady Bird being run by another director or director, but it was an excellent I start and hope to see m Her movies, is Lady Bird good? Is it a masterpiece? in my opinion no, it's a good movie, but I can not see the movie winning so many prizes in oscar in main categories, maybe in best actress for Saiorse Ronan but just that. Note 7.7

Good Time is a film, much better than I expected, one of the best of 2017, the story that seems simple is very good and exciting, has twists and surprises, Robert Pattinson is excellent, and each film erases his image in Twilight, in this film he does an act that deserved a nomination for the best actor in the Oscar in my opinion, if he is indicated I would be very happy, Ben Safdie that besides acting is also the director of the film, he sends very well, and the The rest of the cast is great, the film's photograph is a bit gloomy, with a dark and 'dirty' color palette, the film has a great start and a sensational and electrifying ending, Good Time is a great, worth a lot. Shame, much better than I imagined. Note 9.4

Call Me by Your Name directed by Luca Guadagnino is nominated by many one of the great favorites in the Oscar of 2018, is a very good movie, and really deserves the bets, is a sensitive film, beautiful and with great performances, with a good story Armie Hammer does the best acting in the career, he is very well, but it is not a performance to win Oscar in my opinion, but if he wins, it will not be unfair, but I think that this year we had better performances in the category of best supporting actor, and Timothée Chalamet is even better, does a great performance, his character is full of doubts, and makes really difficult decisions in the film, the film is beautiful and with moments well calm with a beautiful photograph and color palette, the movie has some problems, there are characters that do not add anything, and I found that the relationship of the characters was a bit rushed, I think it was worth the film to have had about 20 mi Call me by Your Name is a sensitive, beautiful film with great moments and great performances. Note 8.7

I wanted to have liked Atomic Blonde, I saw positive reviews that it was a movie like John Wick, I love action movies, I love series like Mad Max, and even Terminator that mixes science fiction with Action (I consider Terminator 2 : The Judgment Day the best action movie of all time), but Atomic Blonde I found a very tiring film, the story did not excite me, the action scenes are very well directed, David Leitch shows to be very talented in this aspect, Charlize Theron, who has been making more and more action films, has James McAvoy who is doing well in the film, Sofia Boutella, Toby Jones, Bill Skarsgard, John Goodman and etc., the cast is good, but I did not cling to the characters, forgettable soundtrack, to my see Atomic Blonde is much inferior to John Wick both the first when the second, I expected a lot more. Note 5.4

It is the second film version of Stephen King's horror classic, the first version of 1990 that was to be a television series that Tim Curry as Pennywise in my opinion is very bad, so if It were medium it would be better than this version , but fortunately the film is very good, It hits on being a movie where the children are the protagonists and leave them adults only for its continuation and so the film is not as long as the old and so does not have the problems of rhythm, the film is directed by Andy Muschietti who does his first job as a director in a long-mentor (Mama del Guilhermo Del Toro is based on the director's short) and could not have been a better debut, she does a great direction, does scenes very well directed, not to mention that the film is brave, there is a scene in the movie that I did not expect and shocked me enough because in addition to being violent is totally unexpected, but I liked it, I like brave movies that are not afraid of Shock the audience (obviously does not have to be something Serbian Film level that is a sick film), but that has scenes that can surprise the audience and that adds in history, the cast is sensational, children do a great job in the film, Jaeden Lieberher, Finn Wolfhard, Jack Dylan Grazer, Sophia Lillis, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Wyatt Oleff and Chosen Jacobs are all great, and Bill Skarsgard I know little of his work but he does a great job as Pennywise being one of the best villains of the year and the makeup is excellent, the film has a great picture and costume, soundtrack good, has a great suspense, knows how to dose well the humor and has its scares, but it is not a movie to frighten so much, not all attempts to The movie is predictable (alright it's based on a book, but in the matter of scaring it should have been more unpredictable), but it's a must-have movie for the book fan and who likes movies like Goonies or even even recent series that took much inspiration in the books of Stephen King that is Stranger Things. Note 8.4

Cronos is a vampire film very different from the others, first that the film does not have the origin like the classics that we are accustomed to watch, the film does not imply that the person turns into vampire, but of understanding that it is transformed already that the person is young and thirsty vampire, but do not expect to see the teeth of vampire and super-force, it is a more contained film and I liked it, Del Toro already showed his talent for bizarre and dark films, it is a film slow, with a rhythm that has problems, even if it is not a long movie it can get tiring, the cast is very well, Cronos is a good movie, not for anyone, a lot of people will not like the movie because of its pace being slow and etc, but I liked it and highly recommend it. Note 7.5

Kingsman: The Secret Service was a creative and different film, unpredictable and full of great moments of action and with the Church scene that is phenomenal, since Kingsman: The Golden Circle succeeds in trying to follow the same way, first of all, the film will surprise you, according to which the film tries to make a scene as remarkable as the one of the church, but can not, the action scenes are good? Yes, but nothing will be marked and will be totally forgotten about 2 days later, another problem of the film is the characters, Eggsy in the first film worked very well, but this was due to the fact that Galahad carries a lot of him, in that he is a character who has a weak development, with weak phrases and with no great time, the character of Pedro Pascoal was what I liked the most in the film, because the best scenes of the film has involved him, and Mark Strong is very well too, the soundtrack is Matthew Vaugh unfortunately has many glitches, if he does well in the action, he sins in the development of the characters, in the end Kingsman even being fun, disappoints , because the expectation was high. Note 6.3

I was only aware of Colossal's existence when he was close to launch, and that was good because I did not see any trailer for the movie, I just knew a little about the premise of the movie and I found it very interesting, it's a very different movie, it's bizarre, and the times you do not understand what is happening, the special effects of the monster is very well done, the cast is great, highlight to Anne Hathaway who is great, can convey well his character, the direction of Nacho Vigalondo is good, the film has problems of rhythm, it gets boring in many moments, some actors are poorly used and others could not be in the film that would not be lacking, the soundtrack is good, but it will not be marked in the cinema and the end of the movie is cool , it's a movie to watch when you have nothing to do, it's worth it. Note 7.5

Valerian and the City of Thousand Planets had a giant potential to be a movie to remember in the next few years, something like Star Wars, since Valerian inspired Star in some ways, pity that the film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets was not inspired by Star Wars also in the matter of adapting pro film, the film is technically perfect, makeup, special effects and impeccable visual, the film uses humor, but failed to work with me, the cast is okay, Dane DeHaan is competent, Cara Delevingne has to improve a lot in the acting, but she has evolved a bit already, it is good to see Clive Owen back, I really like his work, the direction is of Luc Besson who is lost in time unfortunately, is a director who has good Léon is a sensational film, The Fifth Element is a classic of Science Fiction, but if you think, taking these 2 movies he was never a director you see and talk '' is with Luc Besson then the movie will be and Valerian and the City of Thousand Planets does not change that vision, visually impeccable, but poorly developed script, poorly used characters, chemistry between weak characters, but if you go to watch the movie with no expectation, the chances of leaving finding the film decent is greater. Note 4.5
