3 Body Problem (2024– )

Be patient and continue watching..

[9/10 · 23 March 2024]

It is obvious that 3 Body Problem , which skillfully intertwines science and philosophy, will cause a difference of opinion. When I look at the comments, there are those who like it and those who criticize it. Even though I was hesitant at first, I liked it very much. The first few chapters move quite slowly. I think it was specifically designed this way to set the stage for the complex plot. If you are patient and continue with the series, it becomes increasingly interesting. There are technologically satisfying scenes and other heart touching ones. The characters are well portrayed.

It is a production that I wish I had read the book first. There is also a 30-episode Chinese adaptation of the book called "San - Ti" that the audience liked it more but I plan to stick to the new version for now. It is said that the series will have approximately 7 seasons, I hope it will attract enough attention and continue.

Forgotten Love (2023)

Heartwarming

[8/10 · 28 September 2023]

The film attracts your attention with its emotional depth. While we follow what is happenning to Doctor Wilczur, we also witness the warm, hopeful love story of Marysia and Count Czynski. The cinematography, set design and music are quite impressive. Peaceful rural landscapes, villages, peasants... Everything and everyone in this movie is very native and convincing, every scene reveals the hard work done. The performances of the lead actors Leszek Lichota and Maria Kowalska add originality to their characters, I admire both of them pretty much. My only negative comment about the movie is that the ending seemed a bit rushed, they could have made a great mini-series from this movie..

Maestro (2022– )

Heartwarming and sincere

[10/10 · 30 August 2023]

It is a nice detail that each episode deals with a different character in detail and conveys his experiences with that character's voice. The famous singer Xaris Alexiou also created a sympathetic character with her role as grandmother in the series, in which concepts such as interpersonal relations, generation gap, first love, sexual orientation, domestic violence are handled. The tempo is a bit slow, but the dialogues make up for it. The music is very good..The island Paxos stole all the attention. Great visuals. Sun and sea.. When I saw the Greek-made series on Netflix, it immediately caught my attention.(We don't see Greek productions unlikely) If you liked the first part, you can continue, it continues in the same line.. (Christopher Papakaliatis, who is the screenwriter, director and lead actor of Maestro in Blue at the same time, announced that they have started shooting the second season.)

The Invitation (I) (2015)

Mesmerising!!!

[9/10 · 21 August 2023]

The Invitation is an intriguing thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end. Its atmosphere and tension-filled environment affects the person psychologically.

I must say that this movie, which starts slowly and gradually increases in mystery, tension and tempo, may not appeal to everyone because it takes place in one house. But when you watch it, it makes you think once again about the loss-pain-mourning concepts of the beloved ones. You'll be immersed in the strange nature of grief, human bonds and rekindled old friendships.

The actors, especially Logan Marshall-Green and Tammy Blanchard, give exciting performances. They successfully convey the emotional intensity of the characters to the screen.

Silent Night (I) (2021)

Roman Griffin Davis is admirable. Such a talented boy.. The movie started slow but when you give it a chance it turns out to be interesting, heart touching and thought provoking.

Season 2 rocks! They mentioned time travel , space-time continuum , parallel universe ,schrodinger's cat ,wormhole , holocaust ,butterfly effect, body swapping , multiverse collisions, grandfather paradox, twin paradox and time collapse ALL in one season. Furthermore blended them with nasism, communism and holocaust.. Well done!
