MINDHUNTER [season one] ★★★★☆
How true is any of this? But still, a fascinating take on the birth of serial killer psychological profiling. Out to own today: Insyriated
I, TONYA is one of the best films of 2017. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/i-tonya.html The trailer: WONDERSTRUCK ★★☆☆☆
D: Todd Haynes (Carol, Mildred Pierce, I’m Not There, Far From Heaven, Velvet Goldmine). S: Julianne Moore, Michelle Williams, Oakes Fegley, Damian Young, Millicent Simmonds, Jaden Michael, Tom Noonan. Twee. Anticlimactic. What is the opposite of being struck by wonder? Weak stuff from director Todd Haynes. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/wonderstruck.html BRAWL IN CELL BLOCK 99 ★★★★★
D: S. Craig Zahler (Bone Tomahawk). S: Vince Vaughn, Jennifer Carpenter, Udo Kier, Marc Blucas, Clark Johnson, Fred Melamed, Don Johnson. Effing hell! One of the most violent films I have ever seen. Vince Vaughn is a revelation. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/brawl-in-cell-block-99.html |

The vital ambitions of art and entertainment: - Perceptiveness - Illumination - The unexpected - Innovation Brains and soul are key; but adrenaline junkies do not fret, there is also much love for an experience that delivers a sucker-punch to the guts via stunningly delivered thrills. Noun, “filmaluation”: The evaluation of a film Verb, "to filmaluate”: To evaluate a film I am well aware how difficult it is to make a film, put on a stage play, create a television show, write a novel, let alone make something of note. (That appreciation doesn’t stop me from having high standards though.) This online magazine is edited by Hemanth Kissoon. Filmaluation is owned by Filmaluation Limited (Company number 8549302.
