Verity

In my opinion, a honest adaptation. Probably a bit naïve and with some easy choices, but with a nice finale that transforms us into the ultimate judges of Verity's fate. Mark: 6.5 / 10

Resident Evil (2026)

Even not being a videogamer, but knowing a bit of the world-famous one, I truly appreciated this adaptation from the very talented director Zach Cregger, creator of the wonderful "Weapons". Great performance by Austin Abrams. Mark: 7.5 / 10

The Invite

A sort of English language version of the 2020 Spanish movie "Sentimental", it's a witty, smart and enjoyable remake, with the right pace and a phenomenal Penelope Cruz. Mark: 7.5 / 10

Remarkably Bright Creatures

Adapted from the 2022 novel of the same name written by Shelby Van Pelt, it's a delightful story of unconventional fredship between a lonely guy and a cleaning lady working in an aquarium. Sally Field delivers a very passionate performance, as usual. Mark: 7.5 / 10

Project Hail Mary

Between The Martian and Close Encounters of the Third Kind (not just for no reason quoted by the main character), this enjoyable movie mixed a magnificent technical production, a great (adapted) script, a spot on soundtrack and a great performance by both Ryan Gosling and Sandra Hueller. Mark: 7.5 / 10

The Odyssey

The incredibly hyped adaptation of Homer's renowned epic poem does not disappoint. The cast is great (except for Zendaya, in my opinion), Nolan's (technical) direction is immaculate, but I think that such grandeur ends up drying the pure, authentical, emotional approach. Mark: 8 / 10

The Devil Wears Prada 2

A huge publicity campaign for the seguel of the "iconic" first chapter wasn't exactly a promising sign. Frankly, with a domesticated version of Miranda Priestley and a carbon copy script, the result is weak and boring. Mark: 5 / 10
