Submergence (2017)
Definitely underrated.
I am shocked at the negative feedback to this film. It is by no means perfect, but I was moved and genuinely enjoyed it.
The Good:
-The acting is fantastic from every performer.
-the MUSIC
-it's beautiful to look at
- James's story I felt to be very interesting and compelling.
The Negative: -I feel they took too long introducing the characters and letting their love form. On one hand, yes it's nice to not see feelings rushed and force you to try and care. But on the other hand the film isn't about them falling in love, it's about their passions for their respective causes, and that bringing out the best in both of them by seeing it through their love. -Danny's story wasn't near as interesting to me as James's was. Not because of the performances, but I believe the script could have used some tightening, and focused more on the purpose of her expedition instead of her not being able to focus on it because he hasn't replied to her.
Overall:
Solid film, I think it is a bit too long but at the same time I didn't expect it to end, it is very sad and makes you think for awhile after. It's honestly in my opinion, a great film to watch by yourself and just invest yourself into.

Macbeth (2015)
The best film I have ever seen
What is there to say about Justin Kurzel's MACBETH? I have adored this film for years ever since I first saw it in the cinema.
The performances, the visual use of red throughout the story, the music. There isn't a film more beautiful than this one.
Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard are true forces to be reckoned with. Easily the best performance I've seen from both actors.
This film has inspired me to go and watch every single adaptation and incarnation of MACBETH I can get my hands on. As well as read the text, which makes you appreciate the films more. This film has inspired me to have a desire to make my own version of Macbeth.
There are so many ways to tell this story, as evidence by all of the different artistic mediums that have been used over the years to do just that.
This is a beautiful story, a beautiful film, and one I truly hope will go down with the classics.
If anybody that ever worked on this film ever reads this. Please give yourself a pat on the back, well done.
10/10 - Masterpiece
