inI should have posted it before after Christmas but somehow I got all wrapped up in other things, and here I am posting it today.
Trust
I was impressed, not at first, but then everything went just the way it should. Not too brutal and just the enough amount everyone should know and David Schwimmer did great job directing it. Definitely will rewatch it. There were many scenes that were compelling, my favorite the girl’s realization that he raped her not loved her, her father apologising at the end, family being all everything is normal, her thinking he loves her and will call her back, the rape scene, when her father saw her picture on the wall along all other hal fnaked models and father’s flashbacks. We did not need that scene during the ending titles though, but I really thought him taking the video would lead to somewhere like they would find him or something.
10/10
Pokerhouse
The rape scene was incredible, and mother all drunk and not caring, loveed Selma Blair in this, and Jennifer Laurence was great too, the last scene, girls singing in the car.
8/10
The Perfect Family
The mother just got used to the whole situation too quickly, yeah and it was too happy in general. Favorite scene, the first one at the dinner table.
7/10
The Prime of Miss Joan Brodie
Maggie Smith is spectacular in this, oh my, absolutely incredible. The film was marvellous too, though sometimes that kid was too annoying and self confident.
10/10
Eye for an Eye
Absolutely perfect, kind of a rape and revenge film and Sally killed it.
9/10
Sinister
I was really disappointed, as it was only tense at the beginning when he watched the tapes and the only creepy scene was when the face was revealed in the reflection of the water, other than I really thought it would be the next Insidious and it was pretty much disastrous.
6/10
The Hunger Games
And somehow I did end up watching it, though I said I would not and was surprised cause I thought It would be just another Twilight, but the whole story, sacrifice two kids from a district, and all the kills.
7/10
Punchline
I am always gonna laugh at this one, absolutely amazing. Sally was spectacular. My father used to talk about this film all the time when I was a younger teenager. He still quotes the scenes like Tom’s character medical exam or dinner at the table with the priest. Hilarious. I will watch it with him when I’m home in 3 weeks.
10/10
Kika
The rape scene was incredible, may have been a little too much for most of the audience, but really perfect. The whole film was so beautifully crazy. Kika was pretty annoying in a good meaning of the word. Not as perfect as Bad Education, but one of Almodovar’s best.
10/10
The Perks of being A Wallflower
The only thing I did not like about the film is that Kate Walsh did not have enough screen time, other than that film was incredible. I was really glad when I saw where the film was going, the sexual abuse storyline. Kind of a teenage version of The Silver Linings Playbook.
And at this moment we were infinite.

The only show I added to the list this fall, which clearly means it is special. I am not a huge fan of Ryan, and the idea of him seeing his wife already three times I think, is not for me. But the whole group therapy thing. I used to be obsessed with ‘Starved’ and now that I have this one after so many years, it is really refreshing. The show was very good at the beginning, then it got terrible, and now it is acceptable. Anne is my favorite of the crazies.
This is how I graded season 1 so far.
My grade: 4.7/10

Posted castle, Stana Katic, tv series
inSeason 5 was a huge disappointment for me and made me doubt my obsession with the show last year. The first three seasons, when they were sneaking, and Kate was telling herself she does not like him was an interesting addition to the intriguing cases, which were like 20 out of all episodes. Season 4 I was too much focused on Stana’s acting, as I really loved the PTSD episodes, and how she tried to cope with all the stress, so I did not realize the cases became less engaging, with just a few good cases. This season on the other hand, had absolutely NO cases I remember, and the Kate and Castle relationship does not work for me, and I see something odd about them that I cannot identify and name. I compare it to Booth and Bones’ relationship which stayed perfect after they realized they loved each other. I did hate the hook up though, and mostly the fact that they STILL did not show us a thing. Which here, yes, for me it happened to fast, was spectacular. Everything after the hookup is a disaster. Now it looks like an average work romance, or maybe just hooking up, beside the one amazing scene of the ‘love handshake’, which still lacked something for my taste. I cannot believe how obsessed I was with the show last year, it is like I may have been blind and was exaggerating or maybe the show really got worse after the hook up. But why the hell the cases got all bad. It used to be a decent crime show and now even the laugh is doubtful.
This is how I graded season five each week:
In total: 5.3/10

inSeason two so far, is nothing close to the good season one. It has never been an extraordinary show, but it was nice to have a taste of comedy on a Thursday evening. But this season, if one episode lasted more than 23 minutes, I would gave up on the show. I remind you, that my grade of season one was: 6/10
