The Dirty Hands Man In depth Critique
The Dirty Hands Man by Christian & Jason Bareford Since horror is one of my personal favorite genres in film, it is always exciting when I have to review one. I eagerly set the right mood and disconnect myself from the outside world in order to delve into the experience in hopes that I wouldn’t […]
Blight Review
Blight by Maryam Chekoofi After watching this film all I could ponder about was the darkness that humanity holds and how cruel and inhuman can “humans” be, this goes to show how perfectly knitted is this work and how writer/director “Maryam Chekoofi” was able to deliver an extremely powerful message that sheds light on child […]
Kill your darlings In depth Critique
Kill your Darlings by Dimitri Kanjuka It is not very often that I watch a film that puts a smile on my face all the time while watching and gives me such good vibes that stays with me thru out the whole day; writer/director “Dimitri Kanjuka” did exactly that with his “Kill your darlings”, the […]
Let Me In depth Critique
Let Me by Aram Manukyan It is always a delight when reviewing a documentary, especially when it is as good as the work at hand, being able to honor one’s father in such a manner is not something that your average film maker can come up with, the ability to translate emotions into such a […]

Gone Review
Gone by Joan Bentosela After watching the work, all I could think of was where is my wife and two kids now? Are they safe, are they ok? What a powerful and moving piece of work done by the multi talented “Joan Bentosela” who was able to transport the audience into a real emotional roller […]
Cities in the Air – Episode 1: Deep Water
Cities in the Air by Andrei “Wolf” Constantinescu and Mihai Constantinescu Reading the title of the film, made me wonder what kind of journey was I embarking on (hoping that it would be worth the watch), to my amazement it was definitely not what I expected; from its opening scene I felt that this isn’t […]
Beautiful Violence Review
Beautiful Violence by Joey Medina Before even watching the work, one can not but ponder about the choice of title that combines two total opposites, and ask how can anything violent be beautiful? This reflects a high level of proficiency and talent from writer/director “ Joey Medina”, and makes us all the more curious to […]
