King Richard (2021) |
King Richard is probably the film I was most lazy about out of the 10 nominees. My laziness was put aside from the beginning of the film, being King Richard a very good movie with a great Will Smith as the main character who is opting for his first Oscar. - nostagefright.net

The Hand of God (2021) |
One of Sorrentino's best. Sorrentino's autobiographical film is one of his best works to date. An emotional film with a very careful photography. A must-see. [Full review in Spanish] - nostagefright.net

C'mon C'mon (2021) |
For framing. Mike Mills' (20th Century Women) latest film is a small work of art with an endearing lead duo, where every dialogue and frame can be framed. A life lesson. [Full review in Spanish] - nostagefright.net

The Suicide Squad (2021) |
The Suicide Squad is much better than its predecessor (it was not difficult to improve it). James Gunn's hand is very noticeable, offering us a fun movie with a fantastic soundtrack and blood, lots of blood. [Full review in Spanish] - nostagefright.net

Army Of The Dead (2021) |
The director presents an interesting story that is not able to take advantage of in all the time he has to do it, with too many comings and goings and scenes without much sense. [Full review in spanish] - nostagefright.net

Judas and the Black Messiah (2021) |
Judas and the Black Messiah, I found it quite hard to watch in general. In fact I had to watch it in two batches since it was impossible for me to watch it at first. The last part of the movie is pretty good. [Full review in Spanish] - nostagefright.net

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) |
Zack Snyder's Justice League is far from being a great movie. It's an entertaining film that manages to surprise us despite telling a story we already know, showing us the importance of Snyder in putting the film together. [Full review in Spanish] - nostagefright.net

On the Rocks (2020) |

Palm Springs (2020) |
We all know Andy Samberg and Cristin Milioti's comedic skills. I loved the relationship of their characters. If we add the many references to films like Groundhog Day (1993) we will really enjoy the movie. [Full review in Spanish] - nostagefright.net
