Moneyboys (2021)
Slow paced but in a good way!
I normally don't like slow paced movies but this one actually is worth it. It's not the best of its kind but I enjoyed watching. It's not not too complicated. The story is in fact mundane but the expressions are great. It's also not just about moneyboys but just people in general. We all can be happy in any circumstances but we somehow are reluctant to be happy.
Fei's family (minus the relatives) is afraid of him being alone. His sister literally said to not let go of the one if he'd ever meet the right one but he ended up letting go of him (Long) and ended up possibly alone. We almost always let go of the right ones and let go of our happiness as well. It's a sad sad truth!
We Best Love: No.1 for You (2021)
BEST CHEMISTRY FOR THE COUPLE. PERIOD.
I've watched it many times and I never get tired of the two main leads. I'm not actually an avid BL fan. Nowadays, there are too many of them and they're losing their quality. But this one has natural essence. It might not be an original approach but the actors done it naturally. Highly recommended bl. One of the best of all times. Just watch it and you'll see! Even if you don't like bl, you can still enjoy. It's not like 30 episodes long. It's just about 6 episodes in each season. But I'll tell you it's pretty addictive. You'd even wished it'd be longer. I wish they make an additional season, seriously, I don't mind watching the two main leads for many seasons haha.
Schitt$ Creek: Happy Ending (2020)
WANTS MOREEEE SEASONS!!!!
This entire show grew on me. At first, i felt like it was outta place. But I kept watching till I finished the first season and I quite liked it. But it gets better and better every new season. I get closed to the characters and felt like they were my actual neighbors or acquaintances. But I found out it's already over before I finished the whole. Now, I finished the final season and feel like it doesn't really need to be over yet. I mean, seriously, whyyyy?????
Matthias et Maxime (2019)
NOT MUNDANE, AT ALL!!
I watched this movie just out of boredom. At first, it looked like it was an ordinary LGBTQ story. In fact, it is. But the thing is it's not about the story, but how it portrays. It's rather interesting because of the actings and how naturally the plot follows.
I liked it even more than Love, Simon or Lady Bird since I feel like they're similar in genre minus the high school affairs.
Luce (2019)
BAD PARENTING!!
That's what the title should be.
Aside from that, a straight A student trying to prove he's not a sociopath but probably will end up as one in the future. And then, there's a teacher who's inclined to rummage students' lockers. The point of the plot is everyone is prone to SUCK
HIStory (2017)
Asian bl stories taken to another level !
First of all, I love every piece of History. I can watch them all for many times and not get bored at all. I feel that many Asian countries try to portray LGBTQ stories lightly. Although they're mainly for entertainment purpose, the big influence of the entertainment itself shouldn't be underestimated. Because of that, I'd like to give credits to the people behind these mini series. They did great jobs in aspects of stories, casting, directing, producing etc. although they probably done with low budget.
Also, I'm quite curious about the actors. They're so AMAZING, yet they're not quite well known. Anyway, I hope they'll be more series like this and the conservative parts of Asia get to see these incredible stories.
Les démons (2015)
Could be better without dragging script!
The plot is okay - interesting, in fact. The script though, unnecessarily stretched.
Apostle (2018)
What did I watch ?!
I hated it . I wish I had rather watched SAW. That said
Black Mirror: Bandersnatch (2018)
not a fan
I mean, I'm a fan of Black Mirror, but this kinda ruins my expectations from the long awaited Bandersnatch. It's just, ok, first of all, I don't like the story at all. Boring to the point that I almost fell asleep. My mind was wondering here and there during the movie. I've seen better loops and this is not one of them for sure. The thing I'm struggling to understand now is why the rating is high. Am I just too imperceptive or ...
