Nomadland (2020)
Just what it's supposed to be - simple and beautiful
I don't really know what the negative reviewers expected to see but let me tell you, a movie doesn't have to have a big climax or a shocking plot twist to be good. This movie is simple, heartbreaking and human. The music by Ludovico is superb as always and the portrayal of the protagonist conveys solitude, humanity and need for (but also fear of) human connection is emotionally layered and beautiful. 100% would recommend.
All the Bright Places (2020)
Really good, it would have been better if it was longer
I have to say I really liked the movie it's just some little things that bothered me.
First of all I really think that it should have been longer. I think they missed some powerful details and scenes/interactions from the book. 2 hours and maybe 2+ would have been more appropriate.
The second thing, which was also a bit contingent on its duration was that we didn't really get to see their relationship except from one single montage. After that it started going downhill which was a little too soon, in my opinion. I just felt like, by the end, Violet had lost a really good friend and not a lovestruck partner.
Nevertheless it was a really good movie with an exceptional, impactful and emotional soundtrack. I also really liked the characters' facial expressions. I thought they hit the nail on the head with conveying each exact emotion they were feeling at the moment. I surely recommend it, as well!
Charmed (1998)
Fun, light-headed, and action-packed enough
The series is so good and pretty addicting. I may be biased because I have been watching it for every summer during my entire childhood but it certainly has A LOT of flaws. Continuity, laziness, bad writing and boring storylines are some of them but at the end of the day the show is about sisterhood and family in general and it does succeed perfectly in that purview. Last but not least, amazing performances by all the leads.
