Hello! As part of our ongoing efforts to improve both interaction and curation in the Movies and TV Shows Community, this post is one of many to highlight and boost members of the past week that have posted what we believe is exceptional content.

The Details

Each week, our Moderators will monitor the posts within the Movies and TV Shows Community and handpick the ones that are believed to stand out under numerous factors: post quality, length, and subject.

There are no entry requirements, and this is not a contest, but simply a roundup intended to provide additional exposure to all of you for your efforts. Just have fun posting in the Movies & TV Shows Community and five or more posts will be chosen frequently.

MOVIE REVIEW: “The Black Phone” (2021)

The pre-teen cast (which is led by Mason Thames, who may do more promising projects in the future) ends up becoming the most pertinent layer of a plot (their chemistry on screen is very evident, as is the evolution of the protagonist himself), which despite sounding very obvious at times, remains intriguing even though it is not well developed due to the lack of objectivity of the facts. The supernatural side of the plot adds enriching and very controversial elements, but they are still not enough to keep the movie standing the entire time.

L' Été dernier ( Last Summer ) | Film Review

It is the viewer who will assume the role of judge. The director does not take sides with any of her characters. She shows them and lets them follow their actions according to the construction she has made of each one. Each spectator, according to his or her moral prejudices, will applaud or condemn. It is not only the age difference of the passionate lovers, but also the deceit, lies and manipulation in the final development of the conflict. Who are the victims: Theo, Pierre or Anne? Or maybe none of them is a victim and they get what they deserve.

"Halo" (Season 2, Episode 7) by Dennie Gordon - Nearing the Halo

I know that it is only a matter of time before Master Chief united with his armor and once he did almost no covenant soldier was able to stop him. Since this episode ended with the Master Chief wearing his armor it makes me excited that the season finale will be action and we will the the fighting prowess of the Master Chief once again.

🎬My review about The Boys, season 4 | Mi reseña sobre The Boys, temporada 4 📺

Although I think the progress of this season is a little slower than in the others, the truth is that it is necessary in order to be able to explore the development of the characters in more depth, especially the secondary ones.

Blood and Bone (2009)

While the plot on hand is straightforward, the characters, in my opinion, lack depth and good development. Bone is a somewhat generic “tough guy” protagonist, and the supporting cast doesn't add much complexity, which I find poor. I longed to see an antagonist that would weaken him and probably have him strategizing or training harder for a proper takedown. But there was nothing like that, as he kept defeating his opponents and walking away unscathed. A protagonist's got to have flaws, but I couldn't point out one in Bone.

Mi opinion sobre The platform : Un descenso a los abismos de la humanidad

Personally, this film surprised me enormously, as it exposes that part of humanity that we try to hide so much, that most ruthless form of the human being, and how hunger, fear, and the desire to survive, can lead a person to be the rawest version of himself.

No Negociable - Review and opinion

A film that involves action with a certain degree of comedy, entertaining from the beginning to the end, with a degree of fantasy that many of us would like to see come true or happen at some point with any of the rulers of our countries, because Mexico is not the only country where politicians are corrupt; how many of us would not like to see them in a vulnerable position where the only way out is to be honest. Of course, it is difficult and that is why I say that it is a fantasy that a President would be as exposed as this one was, but how good it would be if it were to happen.

Review: Sense8 | An immersive experience that will teach you about human connection

One of the most interesting aspects of Sense8 is its production, this series was filmed in multiple locations around the world, it takes you to Berlin, passing through beautiful streets of Mumbai and transports you to beautiful skyscrapers in Asia. This series has a global focus that not only gives it a sense of authenticity, but also highlights a lot of the differences and similarities between the characters. The soundtrack was good, throughout the episodes, the music plays a crucial role in the narrative... there are very memorable scenes that go from action moments to more emotional sequences, and always the action scenes are the ones I like the most. This music thing, it's something that reflects a lot of the emotional tone of the series and allows you to connect more with these characters.
