AND IF WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TRAVEL IN TIME WITHOUT MATTERING THE CONSEQUENCES... WOULD YOU DO IT? (IN THE END, I DON'T THINK ANYTHING BAD CAN HAPPEN... OR CAN IT?) 🤷‍

There were three big reasons for me that made my head spin and finally encouraged me to see it, as well as write a review about it on Letterboxd:

1. I love themes about time travel, as well as its paradoxes, and it is undoubtedly one of the…

Breakfast on Pluto

2005

★★★★½ Liked Watched

IT'S THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THIS MOVIE IN MY LIFE. WHY DIDN'T I EVER DO IT? I LOVED IT (¡YEP, THAT’S A FACT!)

I won't lie to you either, of course, if I knew of its existence, I think I know almost everything that the mecca of cinema has gestated at least from the years onwards after I was born, which does not mean that I have already seen or necessarily have to see absolutely everything, but I don't…

The Year of the Plague

1978

★★★ Watched

5 YEARS AFTER GOING PANDEMIC IN MEXICO... FINALLY THIS REVIEW IS HERE (LATE, BUT SURE).

In my previous review,w I talked about how Letterboxd drove my cure for boredom when we were in confinement, curiously it was at the beginning of 2022 when COVID-19 was coming to an end on our planet when I just found out about the existence of this film, and of course, for me, it was inevitable not to realize that in our world the themes…

I'M BACK!!! (..... WELL ACTUALLY NOT AS I USED TO DO BEFORE)

After more than 3 years of not writing here, I have been encouraged to do it again. For those of you who follow me and have read the reviews I've written, you know that during the pandemic I became fond of exploring myself on this platform which I love and has taught me a lot about cinema. So I have decided to dedicate part of my time to…

First Round Down

2017

★★★½ 4

Before I start this review I want to tell everyone who has read me since all this time that this will be for now my last review written here in Letterboxd, because I've been back to work for the past month and there is little time to watch movies, it has been a bit complicated for me to do it but I made a commitment that I would write about several of them that I already had pending. I dedicate…

Devotion

2003

★★★★ 1

You don't know how much I wanted to write about this film. I know about it through Letterboxd and since I read the synopsis I was hooked and I was determined to see it at all costs to the extent that I was looking for it for several months in torrents and stream websites until last week I finally found it and it even came with English subtitles which for me is already a great gain.

Devot opens on a…

Truly Human

2001

★★★★½ Liked Watched

After having seen Weeding Days a few months ago I felt like watching again another Dogma 95 style film, and when searching about them in Rate Your Music, since there you can also find films classified by genres and subgenres, I ed again Truly Man, a 2001 work produced by Zentropa (when this technique was almost dying out and going old-fashion) which I already knew about and knew of its existence but had never seen .... until now.

This tragicomedy…

Some Voices

2000

★★★½ Watched

I don't think I had seen a film on Letterboxd for months that was so lacking in attention, and I'm referring to its few views, being on a watchlist of several s, having less than 50 written reviews as well as minimal ratings. This fact was the main incentive for me to watch it and realize why it was so underrated on the site.

Some Voices is a 2000 British film directed by Simon Cellan-Jones from a screenplay by Joe…

Playdurizm

2020

★★★★½ Liked 2

In April of this year I know about this film thanks to a gay-themed blog that I frequent often because it gives recommendations of gay films from many parts of the world and when I saw the poster and read the synopsis of Playdurizm I was fascinated to see it, I looked it up and watched it and from that moment on I loved it (believe me, you can be charmed by a movie just by watching it once) but…

Three Below Zero

1998

★★★★ Liked Watched

First of all, before I start talking about this film I would like to tell you the story of how I got to know Three Below Zero because it is a very outrageous and comical event worth mentioning:

At the beginning of this 2020 and partly for a bit of not knowing what to do to entertain me I started watching the series Yellowstone (2018), I'm almost no longer put to watch as many TV shows as when I was…

The Dare

2019

★★★½ 2

Two days ago chatting on Twitter via DM with a friend of mine he showed me the poster and synopsis of this movie, asking me if I knew about it and the truth is that until that moment I didn't know about it, but it was how transgressive it looked what made me decide to do it and write about it.

This story tells us how on a strange night Jay and his family live a brutal and unexpected twist…

Cold Skin

2017

★★½ 2

I stumbled upon the existence of Cold Skin days ago when I entered the Letterboxd App because I noticed that a follower had made a review of it.

When I saw the poster and the synopsis I was very intrigued to see it, which ended up encouraging me to do so.

The film is an adaptation of the novel by Albert Sánchez Piñol (which like other films based on a book of which I have written reviews on the site…
