Love Actually... Sucks! (2011)

Nice film

[10/10 · 29 July 2023]

This movie consists of several stories revolving around love and tragedy hence the "sucks" in the title. It shows a lot of violence, nudity, and a lot of "dark humor" situations like the scene of the two heads floatting side by side on the sea, it's definitelly not for everyone, specially those people Who are easilly ofended.

My advice is lower your expectations, know what you are about to watch and you will not regret, the movie for an informed audience is actually very Nice and entertaining.

Just on a side note i LOVE male nudity depicted by non american movies, americans have this awful aproach toward nudity, specially male nudity that is just annoyng.

Thirty Years of Adonis (2017)

This movie is actually great !!!

[10/10 · 29 July 2023]

Frist of All i acknowlege that the movie is disturbing, intense and strong but that is not a bad thing, the film tells the story of a theater actor Who gets unemployed, evicted from his home, and is forced to work as a male prostitute and make sexual, borderline SNUF film in order to survive. The movie shows all his life from birth, to violent death, to reencarnation, with hopes he will finally find happiness in this New life.

Now for the shoking parts ...

1- EXCESSIVE NUDITY: The movie shocks for the amount of nudity and explicity cenes of sex, but that is intentional after all how can you tell the story of an abused sex worker without nudity ?

2- EXCESSIVE VIOLENCE: The movie also shock for the violent, graphic, blodied scenes, but again thats how it's supposed to be because thats how it is in real life.

3- THE USE OF RELIGIOUS ICONOGRAPHY : Ok , the film could softened that part a little bit like the part of his death tied to a Cross, but oh honestilly just ... SUCK IT UP AND SHUT UP !!! ... i mean by the end of the Day Who cares ? Oh the prostitute died in a Cross like jesus, it's blasphemy , WHO CARES ? People have the right to make films were people died in Crosses, or strangled with a rosary , or beaten to a bloody pulp using a buddha statue or whatever !!! JUST SUCK IT UP AND SHUT UP !!!

The Genesis Children (1972)

Ok here we go

[10/10 · 28 July 2023]

This movie is very controversial because of the underaged boys nudity , but that is exactily what the movie talks about, the inocence, in the movie Nothing sexual happens, the boys are simply naked, walking and goofing around , if they were dressed there would be no problem, they behave like the people in the genesis part of the bible probabilly would explaining the title "the genesis children" . The children see no problem with their behave in the film it's WE the audience that see the malice, the wrong with their'e attitude , just like adam and eve AFTHER they ate the forbidden fruit. I acknolege that the film is controversial, but i URGE the audience that try to see the movie throug the childrens eyes, with inoccence.

Fantasia (1940)

I don't get why people can't see that this movie SUCKS !!!

I guess some thinks are labled as good just because of name *in this case the name Walt Disney* and because the passege of time turns somethinks into "classic" lets forget about that and review this as it is, entertenement, that is what movies are, they are art, but they are mainly entertenement. And my question is did you enjoy this filme ? Did you had fun whatching it ? Did you get entertained ? The enswer is NO !!!! Its annoing, boring, filled with unending unrelated songs, slowpaced, BORING, simply putting BORING and ANOYING. One of the worse movies i ever watched in my life. Am i the only one Who thinks that way ?

City Without Baseball (2008)

Interesting film

[10/10 · 26 July 2023]

This movie mix perfectlly reality and fiction, the actors are the real hong kong baseball team and the problems they face like lack of popularity of the sport, with games being played on empty stadiuns are real but the personal dialog and interactions between players are fictional. I enjoyed the fact that even thou the movie has no LGBT+ caracters there is a strong homoerotic vibe in the entire film.

I recomend this movie for people Who like sports, particulary baseball and are interested to know how the sport fares in other nations , people Who likes to see naked men will enjoy also.

Have fun. 😀
