Apocalypse Now (1979) added to Films watched in 2020 list.
BarneyNuttall rated and reviewed a movie.

Napalm, drugs, and a small helping of Brando; the three ingredients you need to make your own masterpiece! Apocalypse Now transcends the war film genre and becomes a psychedelic odyssey into Hell itself.
In fact, the similarities to Homer's Odys... Read the full review »

Don't Look Now (1973) added to Films watched in 2020 list.
BarneyNuttall rated and reviewed a movie.

Don't Look Now is strange, jarring, and mysterious with emphasis on the mist. Autumnal Venice provides a time-locked setting for a story that is far from linear. While to some this film could be unsettling in the worst ways, Don't Look Now was is,... Read the full review »

Jackie (2016) added to Films watched in 2020 list.

Jackie is haunting. Much of the film consists of wide shots of Jackie floating down the empty halls of what was once her home. Portman's ghostly portrayal is boosted by Mica Levi's gracefully brooding score which moans and sings along with her pai... Read the full review »

Sympathy for Lady Vengeance (2005) added to Films watched in 2020 list.
BarneyNuttall rated and reviewed a movie.

At the end of his vengeance trilogy, director Park ticks all the vengeance boxes the two precursor's have established. Alongside this, we have Park's flashy style which sweeps over scenes of mass violence, landing on a fierce close-up. However, La... Read the full review »

Are you ready to return to movie theaters?
I really want to but, same as you, I'm still concerned. Since everyone stays in one room with the same air re-circulating, it seems very risky. Saying that the fact that cinemas are showing old releases is a massive incentive. I would also wear a... View the full reply »

Oldboy is the quintessential piece pf South Korean cinema. Full of shocking scenes, sickening violence, and twisted sexual deviance, one wonders how South Korean cinema find its audiences. What's vital in all examples of South Korean cinema which... Read the full review »

If the 60s were a movie, this would be it. This comedy has a Spielburg element to it yet has an undeniable feeling of dread underneath, much like the characters feel in the film. Tapping into cold war paranoia, this film satirizes cinema and every... Read the full review »

Considered by many a modern masterpiece, There Will Be Blood is grossly dark, boldly comic, and expertly crafted. It acts as a culmination of artists at the height of their craft as well as a depiction of the birth of capitalist America and the pe... Read the full review »

The Lighthouse is an atmospheric movie. The plot can be summarised in one line, that being simply; two men are left alone and go mad. While the film arguably has more meat than that, it is an experience of a film. With the claustrophobic aspect ra... Read the full review »

A grand epic that surpasses its predecessor with a brilliantly acted dual-narrative. In part two, the highs barely rival the horrific lows which seem to spit on the grave of the original godfather, Vito Corleone. Pachino is electric, constantly bu... Read the full review »

Love is the Devil acts as a series of snippets into Bacon's tested relationship with George Dyer. The film is chock-full of close ups, reflections, horrific imagery and bruised flesh. It acts as a wonderful depiction of Bacon's works yet it doesn'... Read the full review »
