In O2, a young woman wakes up alone in a cryogenic capsule. She no longer knows who she is, or how she ended up locked in a chest the size of a coffin. As she begins to lack oxygen, she will have to recompose the elements of her memory to get out of this nightmare. This is the synopsis of Oxygen, the new feature film by Alexandre Aja. For his first collaboration with Netflix, the horror director directs Mélanie Laurent and locks her in a breathless camera. The first teaser emphasizes the oppressive side of the situation with the heroine’s shortness of breath, creating a feeling of stress and danger among the spectators: like her, we dream of taking a good breath of air outside. this tube...

Read More ...I’m Your Woman is not for everyone. If it was for everyone the producers would have found another comic book character and we would have another steaming empty piece to watch for two hours. It’s a slow burning story. I like this because I want to be interested in the characters before knowing (or having to determine) their fate. I want to see Jean’s transformation especially since she’s just Eddie’s wife for the first part of the story. She starts aimlessly as a pretty face that he didn’t marry for her cooking. Either way the plot moves pretty fast and we’re presented with a detective film that is no different from most crime films. Except for the transformation of John and humanity. The kindness of strangers along the way. The touch of a stranger in a laundromat all good people. There are a few events in the film that cannot be overlooked. Perhaps these events will cause some viewers to find one or two of the heroes beyond repair. (I remain vague to avoid spoilers). But at least it gives you something to think about when you watch it. I also like Aretha’s two songs Natural Woman and The Weight. If you like independent movies I think you will like this one...
Read More ...A long time since I had seen such a bad movie, not even worthy of a cheap TV movie. Laughing scenario and action scenes, actors playing in tune.
