Other People's Children (2022)

Definitely not w ROM-COM

[7/10 · 7 November 2023]

To whoever that thinks the movie is a romcom it only means one thing, is that you did not get the movie.

I studied cinema, and the movie is more dramatic than romcom!

The movie is quite simple but with deep meanings. It's main focus is parenting. Is it a need to be a parent? Should we all become parents? Where does the need and/ or the feeling comes from?

Virginie Efira (Rachel) performance is great. Rochdy Zem (Ali) performance is just fine. The kid (Leila) performance is outstanding.

I being a pansexuel cis-man, only daily basis I feel like Rachel. I worked with kids and I loved it. When I met the child of a friends of mine and we get along, it makes me happy.

I know I want kids, I want them. Why? I can't answer to this question. But could we all have kids?

It might be easier for a woman to get a child without having a partner, not the case for men. And adoption is a very complicated procedure in most of the countries discriminating those who desire to be single parents.

Doctor Sleep (2019)

What a bad movie 😥

[4/10 · 28 April 2023]

I think Stephen king must be stupid to like this movie, to be fair I did not read doctor sleep so the movie might be very loyal to his book. However, the directing is not extraordinary, long and boring movie. It felt like a movie made for kids. Nothing to do with the shining. Even though the shining was not faithful to the book I liked both of them. Not the case of doctor sleep (as I said I did not read the book but the movie it felt like I lost 180 minutes of my life for nothing!) Being a big fan of the shining, this really saddened me. I was sure I wouldn't like it and I kept postponing watching it for years now.
