The slow grind keeps going, for me has been Cape Fear and FOMK S05, they both good in their own ways its just that I fall behind with other stuff in real life but dont want to stop half way, but finally this is the episod I felt makes the Mars situation and the Titan mission feel like part of the same story, even though they leave you with two very different feelings. Dev and Kelly both decide they already know what has to happen and both go around everyone else to make it happen, the difference is Dev leaves people dead and hurt while Kelly gets the result she wanted, so one of them looks like a monster and the other a hero and I do not think the show should let that difference settle who was actually right to keep the spice going. Dev clearly crosses a line but Kelly also puts the entire crew at risk once Walt already gave the order to turn back, she just gets away with it because it works out. The landing gives Happy Valley one good moment after months of shortages and people wanting to leave and I like that the episode does not pretend reaching Titan fixes anything or rebuilds the six domes that just got destroyed. The celebration is real but the disaster is still sitting there once the everyone just stops cheering or caring, not sure, but what I want now is for the next episode to judge these two on what they did, not just how it turned out.

Dev is a lot harder to defend now because this was not an accident caused by Palmer losing control in the field, Palmer straight up says the attack followed the plan Dev signed off. The point was to wipe out crops and food storage so the Sons and Daughters of Mars would finally give up and just typing that out says enough about how far Dev has let himself go, he cant cut a supply line because they produce their own so it was basically blow up their crops so they starve, plain and simple, thats fucking terrorism. He already knows Happy Valley is barely holding on, aid is getting cut, food is rationed, equipment keeps failing and spare parts are running out, and instead of treating that as a sign the colony needs a political solution he makes things even harder for everyone living there. Six domes get taken out, one person dies, seven more get hurt and two are critical, and the food supply drops from about two months down to two weeks, that is not pressure meant to force a negotiation, it is an attack on the same people Dev claims he is trying to save from a cause he thinks is doomed. His reaction after does not help either, he asks if Alex was there and Palmer cannot even answer him, all he gets confirmed is a young woman is dead and he still backed the plan to torch the food supply, even with the domes intact those people were looking at starvation. Dev seems upset because it got personal not because he realizes the plan itself was wrong, and that makes his guilt feel late and weak, so much stupidity coming out of someone so smart.

The human cost is what keeps the Mars side from turning into another council room argument, while Alex is celebrating his birthday with Lily and their friends right when the domes get hit and the show turns a normal little party into the clearest proof that Dev has lost touch with the people he is supposedly fighting for. That party is kind of silly on its own but it matters because these are young people trying to have a life while the adults fight over who controls Mars, this seems to be a world where people still go out and have fun, thats what the party is mostly about, but then one of them is dead and others are badly hurt because Dev wanted to break the will of the rebellion. I liked that the episode does not let the politics stay clean at all, the council has to deal with the dead, the injured, the food that is gone and more people saying they want to go back to Earth, truth is that who wants to be there anymore with how tight is food and the danger that it represents with this kind of attacks. Aleida joins that group because the Titan mission is wrapping up and her family is back home, and her decision shows how weak this independence push has gotten after six months, the early unity is gone, the money system is falling apart and the regular workers keep getting told to accept less while the people in charge keep insisting they will never surrender. It seems to be just Miles who still believes giving up would destroy everything they fought for, but the entire situation is choaking him leaving him out of room and having to face a situation that not the best speech can fix, people are dying, Dev did not create every shortage but he turned a bad situation into one that might not be survivable.

Kelly gets the more exciting half of the episode and I get why the landing feels like such a big win once the Kosmos 1 crew is already dead, their attempt at Titan fails because of a bad calculation that pulls them toward Saturn instead and Sojourner stays on the radio with them until the signal cuts out for good. That gives Walt a real reason to cancel the landing and turn back to Mars and even if he does not like Kelly and made that call fast, but it means choosing not to repeat the same disaster, that does not mean he has become a coward, its just better to recognize failure before its too late. For the most part I think Kelly will not accept it because she keeps thinking about she honestly regret her father after he did not land on the moon when he had the chance and I get why that history matters to her, it follow Ed the entire series and cause more than one accident but none of that gives her the right to change the mission without telling the crew. She overrides the order and forces Sojourner toward Titan anyway, dragging everyone on board into a decision none of them made and the fact that it works out does not make the method okay, it is the same story repeating again, Ed got lucky a few times until he wasnt. If the ship had failed she would be responsible for putting that crew in danger against a direct order, but because they land safely everyone gets to celebrate while the argument about what she did vanished. Not to throw her under the bus but would be nice if the show puts more attention to what she did, Walt needs to find out what she did and Kelly should have to explain why her own fear of regret mattered more than the crew getting a say in risking their lives.

This honestly was such a good episode because it reminds me a lot to Ed, and the landing still works as a moment with tons on impact on the series because Miles understands what Happy Valley needs from it, he pushes Aleida to broadcast the mission audio across the whole base since the ship and the people flying it came out of work done on Mars and that pulls both sides of the conflict into the same moment whether they like it or not. Dev, Palmer, the council, the governor and the regular workers all end up listening because the landing belongs to the colony even while the colony cannot agree on anything else, and I liked that more than a straight celebration on the ship would have been. It gives Mars something good without pretending the political fight is close to be over or forgoten for a minute, after that its all back to regular business, everyone at Happy Valley gets proof their work means something but nobody walks away with more food, spare parts or a real path toward independence. Dev and Kelly both believe they know better than the people around them and one choice ends with someone dead while the other ends with people cheering, but both came from been walking a thin line before becoming wreck less thats for certain. This is one of the stronger episodes of the season for me because it gives these characters a win and a disaster at once and leaves the consequences sitting there waiting from everyone to drop a gear and come back to reality at the final episodes, the landing is worth celebrating, it just cannot make anyone forget who got hurt, who got ignored and who still has to answer for what happened.

So, I eventually got a chance to watch this and boy it was not what I thought it was going to be, but in a positive way.

I'm sure most people have this image in their head of the "nicer" cousin, the sunny Superman of Supergirl. This movie puts that right down on its toes right away. Kara is a mess for Milly Alcock. She's a true mess, literally. She's out partying on planets that cancel out her powers solely to feel normal for five minutes while she tries to avoid literally everyone and run away from what happened to her home planet. It's a broken down version of the character and, um, honestly? I was here for it. Much funnier than another “Learning to be a hero” origin story.

When you break it down, the plot was pretty straightforward: A little kid named Ruthye wants to get rid of a space pirate that killed her whole family, and she basically drags/kidnaps Kara into helping her hunt him down. That's it. There's no stakes that would make the universe end, no huge CGI army in the sky, just revenge, and the little personal kind. I've heard a lot of people say "It's like True Grit" and it really does have that same 'angry kid and reluctant mentor' vibe running through it.

Alcock is really awesome. She plays the character of Kara as though she were older than she appears to be, but not physically (too young!), rather as though she had been through so much. It does a better job of selling the entire “watched her planet die as a teenager” story than just having characters say “I saw her planet die when I was still a teenager.” It's important to note that both Eve Ridley (as Ruthye) and Shawshank are really good against each other, otherwise the rest of the film with the two of them would be pretty boring.

I have one real beef.... the action, It's just... fine? There was nothing particularly brilliant in the big set-pieces but a couple of fight beats felt a bit floppy as if the director wasn't too comfortable with character stuff as he was with big spectacle. I don't think it barks up the wrong tree for a film, but if you're looking for some polished fights like those of "Superman" then temper with that.

I also got to enjoy that it didn't have to be a bit uncomfortable. It has heavier content here, loss and violence and other things that a lot of superhero films would shy away from for a PG-13 audience, and it adds a weight to the entire thing that a lot of superhero films lack.

In essence: if a showy, boisterous sound is what you're looking for, this may not be quite that dramatic. If you are looking for a well acted little revenge tale, a bit sad, a bit scrappy and the superpowers thrown in, this does. I walked out of it loving it more than I anticipated.

The movie is not flashy, but one hell of a lead performance, and lots of heart.

After the comments I got when sharing my review about Elite Force · GIGN (2026), I decided to write a review of another series, a Nordic noir called Young Wallander that I liked and maybe you can consider adding to your waiting list, if you haven't watched it.

source

It is called Young Wallander, as there's another series, called Wallander and I've seen bad reviews, complaining about Young Wallander not being what they had expected as the original series was filmed between 2005 and 2013 and the new series is featuring the times when it was filmed. I'm not sure if there's a connection between the two at all, don't really care either as when you do, you already have expectations that most of the times lead to disappointment. I watched the series as it was and loved it.

source

The country of origin is United Kingdom, but the series revolves around the young Kurt Wallander, a young (obviously) police officer in Malmö, Sweden. Most of the actors are Brits, but the lead actor, Adam Pålsson is Swedish and I appreciate that as it gives some kind of authenticity to the series.

So the series starts with Kurt Wallander (Adam Pålsson), a uniform officer witnessing a brutal crime in the neighborhood, where he lives and no one knows he's a police officer. After the crime, as he was an eye witness basically, coordinating the crowd, he's asked to give a hand to the investigating detectives. This would be a dream of every uniform officer, but Kurt being promoted to major crimes means his best friend is dropped from the list. Kurt has no choice but to accept it.

source

We have the chance to get a glimpse into the Swedish crime life during two seasons of the series. Life of a detective is never easy, Kurt finds himself in all kinds of situations, is forced to make split second decisions, that have consequences and can be questionable after. You as a viewer, have the chance to think about what you'd have done in Kurt's place.

What I loved about the series is that the writes made sure to give time to the story, didn't rush it and also focused on the moral aspect of the action as well. They kept the story as close to reality as possible, no one wanted to play Rambo and there was no need to count the corpses either. The cases are not something you don't see in real life and this is a good thing here, as well as you see Wallander getting experience and growing as a person.

source

The cast is really good, Adam Pålsson is perfect for the role, his Swedish accent is a huge plus, even though so many had a problem with it. There are a couple of names I have to mention, among which Leanne Best, playing Frida Rask, a senior detective partnering with Wallander and Ellise Chappell playing Mona, who's running a charity and not only.

If you're looking for a detective series, that is focusing on the cases, the private life of the characters and it is slow paced as well, give this a try.

source

When it comes to Nordic noir, I have two series to recommend to you. This is one and the other one is coming as I need to watch it again first. Not because I forgot what was about, but because it's good and worth watching.

Do you really think you're a normal person?

Hello, blog friends! I’m back with a review of a film that really made a strong impression on me—a drama featuring incredibly talented actresses like Michelle Pfeiffer and Renée Zellweger. Inspired by a novel, this movie is a real gem. Let me tell you a bit about it: the plot revolves around a mother, Ingrid, and her daughter, Astrid—two solitary women living in a state of intense symbiosis until Ingrid kills yet another one of her boyfriends. Ingrid is not an easy person to deal with; she is a mercurial, self-centered artist. Her daughter harbors conflicting feelings toward her, torn between admiration, anger, and a sense of abandonment, as her mother is rarely there for her. When Ingrid is arrested for murder, Astrid is left alone and at the mercy of the foster care system—which is where the story takes a truly dramatic turn. Initially, Astrid is placed with a large family, but problems soon arise; the foster mother is neurotic and religious, yet also unstable. Astrid manages to form a bond with her foster father—viewing him as the dad she never had—but this sparks intense jealousy in the foster mother, who accuses her of being a seductress. Her biological mother levels the same accusation against her during prison visits. Caught between two complicated women, Astrid is left confused and heartbroken until she is cast back into the foster care system.

¡Hola, amigos del blog! Vuelvo con la reseña de una película que realmente me impactó: un drama protagonizado por actrices de enorme talento como Michelle Pfeiffer y Renée Zellweger. Inspirada en una novela, esta película es una verdadera joya. Permítanme contarles un poco sobre ella: la trama gira en torno a una madre, Ingrid, y su hija, Astrid; dos mujeres solitarias que viven en un estado de intensa simbiosis hasta que Ingrid mata a otro de sus novios. Ingrid no es una persona fácil de tratar; es una artista de carácter volátil y egocéntrica. Su hija alberga sentimientos encontrados hacia ella, dividida entre la admiración, la ira y una sensación de abandono, ya que su madre rara vez está presente para ella. Cuando Ingrid es arrestada por asesinato, Astrid queda sola y a merced del sistema de acogida, momento en el que la historia da un giro verdaderamente dramático. Al principio, Astrid es acogida por una familia numerosa, pero pronto surgen problemas; la madre de acogida es neurótica y religiosa, pero también inestable. Astrid logra establecer un vínculo con el padre de acogida —viéndolo como el padre que nunca tuvo—, pero esto despierta unos celos intensos en la madre, quien la acusa de ser una seductora. Su madre biológica le lanza la misma acusación durante las visitas en prisión. Atrapada entre dos mujeres complicadas, Astrid queda confundida y desconsolada hasta que es devuelta al sistema de acogida.

She is placed in a group home where her situation fails to improve—amidst arguments, angry youths, and chaos—though she does manage to make a friend there. She is then reassigned to another family; once again, her biological mother tries by every means to slander her and destroy the bond Astrid has formed with her new foster mother—a sad, lonely, and fragile woman who nonetheless offers her unconditional love and treats her with kindness. Astrid finally feels loved and accepted for who she is, until tragedy shatters this dream, sending her back to a group home and then into yet another placement—this time with a Russian woman who exploits the girls for labor. There, Astrid’s personality shifts; her hatred for her biological mother becomes absolute, to the point where she refuses to see her again—though fate has one final encounter in store for them both.

Es trasladada a un hogar de acogida grupal donde su situación no mejora —en medio de discusiones, jóvenes irascibles y caos—, aunque logra entablar amistad con alguien allí. Posteriormente es asignada a otra familia; una vez más, su madre biológica intenta por todos los medios difamarla y destruir el vínculo que Astrid ha creado con su nueva madre de acogida: una mujer triste, solitaria y frágil que, no obstante, le ofrece amor incondicional y la trata con amabilidad. Astrid por fin se siente querida y aceptada tal como es, hasta que una tragedia hace añicos este sueño, devolviéndola a un hogar grupal y luego a otra ubicación más: esta vez, con una mujer rusa que explota a las chicas haciéndolas trabajar. Allí, la personalidad de Astrid cambia; su odio hacia su madre biológica se vuelve absoluto, hasta el punto de negarse a volver a verla, aunque el destino les reserva un último encuentro.

In my view, this film perfectly explores the relationship between a daughter and her dysfunctional mother—capturing that blend of affection, disgust, and anger. It portrays a mother who is far from ideal; instead, she is a complex woman who seems to harbor feelings toward her daughter that are anything but maternal—feelings of jealousy, envy, and a pathological possessiveness. She is terrified that her daughter might find happiness without her—or perhaps simply find happiness at all. The film flawlessly examines the toxic dynamics of this mother-daughter bond, as well as the suffering and hardships of a girl in the foster care system who is constantly shuffled between families. It offers a glimpse of America that is perhaps overly bleak—certainly far removed from the idyllic American Dream or the perfect American family. It is a dark, dramatic film—even its cinematography relies on a somber color palette—yet it is beautiful and intense; I absolutely loved it.

En mi opinión, esta película explora a la perfección la relación entre una hija y su madre disfuncional, captando esa mezcla de afecto, rechazo e ira. Presenta a una madre que dista mucho de ser ideal; por el contrario, es una mujer compleja que parece albergar hacia su hija sentimientos que nada tienen de maternales: celos, envidia y una posesividad patológica. Le aterra la idea de que su hija pueda encontrar la felicidad sin ella, o tal vez simplemente que llegue a ser feliz. La cinta examina impecablemente la dinámica tóxica de este vínculo materno-filial, así como el sufrimiento y las penurias de una joven dentro del sistema de acogida, constantemente trasladada de una familia a otra. Ofrece una visión de Estados Unidos quizá excesivamente sombría, ciertamente alejada del idílico «sueño americano» o de la familia estadounidense perfecta. Es una película oscura y dramática —incluso su fotografía recurre a una paleta de colores lúgubre—, pero a la vez hermosa e intensa; me encantó.

Hello everyone!

For the last few days I looked for something to watch and after people mentioned the Divergent movies a few times I decided to watch the whole trilogy so I watched Divergent (2014) Insurgent (2015) also Allegiant (2016) one after the other. I did not know much about them before starting. I knew they were based on popular novels.

So I finished all three movies & thought I would share my thoughts here with a spoiler free review since these are the kind of movies you enjoy more without knowing what is coming next.

IMAGE SOURCE

The first thing that caught my eye was in modern times building and the story happening in a future society divided into groups, each showing a particular personality trait. At first, I thought it sounded strange. The movie explains the idea. It is easy to understand. It creates a setting distinct from other sci fi movies.

The first movie gets right into the story without much waiting before things start happening. It introduces the main characters. It explains the rules the space of. It builds tension. It does not confuse.

The action scenes were enjoyable but they aren't just random fights for entertainment. Most of them move the story forward. I appreciate this. Some scenes were intense. They kept me watching. I did not check my phone. Not once.

IMAGE SOURCE

I liked the characters because most of them had their own personalities and didn't just feel like background. The main character goes through many difficult situations. These situations force her to make hard decisions. Even if I did not agree with every choice, I still understood why she made them.

I also enjoyed the relationships between different characters because there is romance friendship trust betrayal and, teamwork mixed together in a way that is balanced. The romance never fully takes over the story. The film stays connected to the main plot.

So the acting was solid, everyone played their roles well, I stayed invested throughout the trilogy. Some supporting characters became my favorites. They were memorable. They did not get a huge amount of screen time.

IMAGE SOURCE

Visually I think all three movies looked quite good the futuristic tech costumes as well as environments were kind of impressive without really feeling too unrealistic. I liked the locations in the trilogy. They expanded the field of from the beginning.

The visual effects have aged well and you can tell these movies came out about ten years ago but they still look nice I think. Some action sequences and, simulations were creative.

So the soundtrack's music fits the scene's mood at times. Background music can make a difference. I think these movies handled it. It worked.

Now let's talk about each movie individually.

Divergent (2014)

This one was my favorite of the three, it does a great job introducing in today's society and still tells an exciting story. Everything felt fresh. I was learning about this universe for the first time. The pacing is good. The action entertains. It leaves me wanting the next movie rights away.

Insurgent (2015)

The second movie gets bigger in scale with more action higher stakes and more mysteries. I enjoyed this one nearly as much as the first movie. Some parts moved fast. It kept the momentum going.

Allegiant (2016)

People have mixed opinions about this movie but I still liked watching it. I will admit it feels different compared to the first two films The direction of the story changes. Some ideas worked well while others could have been explored more.

It wasn't a bad movie for me, but I do think it was the weakest of the trilogy.

IMAGE SOURCE

Throughout the trilogy I really appreciated that it constantly asks interesting questions about identity, freedom, leadership, and how society should function, but it is not just an action series with explosions every few minutes, it keeps that going. There are ideas behind the story. They make you think after the movie ends.

The trilogy is not perfect.

So sometimes certain events happen a bit too conveniently and a few characters do not receive as much development as I would have liked there were moments where I wished the movies slowed down and spent more time explaining certain things. Some plot points felt rushed. That was especially true in the later parts of the series.

I also understand why some viewers were disappointed with how everything progressed across the trilogy I will not go into details because of spoilers but can see both sides of the discussion.

Still I never felt bored while watching these movies that is one of the biggest compliments I can give. Every movie kept me interested. I wanted to go to the next one. I did not want long breaks.

So if you like science fiction mixed with action mystery and a bit of romance then the Divergent trilogy is worth a look it might not be everyone's favorite but it has all things related to and, characters that stick with you.

CONCLUSION

Overall, I enjoyed watching all three films the first one is definitely my favorite the second keeps the excitement going and the third isn't quite as strong but I don't regret spending my time on it. Sometimes it feels nice to watch a movie series. It entertains you. It also makes you think about the choices people make. It shows the kind of society people want to live in.

My Ratings

• Divergent: 9/10
• Insurgent: 8/10
• Allegienat: 7/10

So have you watched the Divergent trilogy? I want to hear what you thought about it. Remember to keep comments spoiler free. Everyone who hasn't seen the movies should still enjoy them. They shouldn't know what happens.

Thanks for reading. See you in my next post.

I believe the most famous plumber in the world needs no introduction: Mario has been an icon for more than one generation; I think he can be considered a celebrity (a fictional one), and his movie is proof of why he is a Superstar.

In recent years, video game adaptations to film have sparked much discussion, with opinions divided. And in this case, there hasn't been a Super Mario movie since the strange 1993 live-action experiment.

The animated movie directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" (2023), was produced thanks to the collaboration between Illumination Entertainment and creator Shigeru Miyamoto. It’s a film made for fans of the Mario games developed by Nintendo. It’s a movie to evoke nostalgia and reignite the desire to play a Mario video game again.

This film marked a difference from recent adaptations seen in cinemas (for example: Detective Pikachu, Sonic, etc.), as most have brought those beloved video game characters into the real world. But Mario couldn’t be like the rest; he is Nintendo’s icon, as famous as Mickey Mouse.

His last live-action adaptation didn’t work for fans of the red plumber. So turning to 3D animation seems like a great decision, since modern Mario games look roughly like this.

They knew exactly how it had to look so that all the elements of Mario’s fantastical world would be instantly recognizable to the audience. And that leads me to the next point: this film is not simply an adaptation of a single video game but of an entire video game franchise. If you’ve ever played 5 or 6 Super Mario games, in one way or another, you’ll understand the thousands of references to those games.

The visual aspect of its animation is the magic and heart of the movie itself. Illumination has recreated the Mushroom Kingdom and the various biomes of the fantastic world of "Super Mario" with an impressive level of detail. The landscapes filled with floating blocks, Piranha Plants, and green pipes feel familiar to any child who has played the games. Certainly, the art direction did not skimp on saturated colors for dynamic action sequences like the race on the iconic Rainbow Road.

What’s incredible is that the fantastical world in which the movie takes place is designed so that any element seen across all the video games appears plausible, like mystery boxes that provide items from the classic games or the racing cars from Mario Kart. Everything that has appeared in the Super Mario universe can be seen on screen (not everything, but certainly the most relevant to the plot).

Regarding the narrative, the film slightly reinvents what is already known: the origin of Mario and Luigi. Two plumbers from Brooklyn struggling to keep their new business afloat are absorbed by a magical pipe and separated in this new fantastical universe. Mario must ally with Princess Peach to stop the fearsome Bowser and rescue his brother.

I must admit I had doubts about the quality of this movie knowing it would be in Illumination’s hands; their animations are excellent, but their weak point is relying on the silly humor they've used since creating the Minions. I thought that might reflect in the Toads, but fortunately, it didn’t. I suspect that was thanks to Nintendo’s influence. The humor is perfectly balanced without becoming tedious or ridiculous; simply put: it’s on point.

The movie leaves little room for deep character development, focusing more on being concise and direct, prioritizing constant stimuli over emotional pause moments. However, for its target audience, families, children, and lifelong fans, this approach works entirely in its favor, preventing the story from dragging and getting straight to the point.

The voice cast has been very well chosen. Anya Taylor-Joy presents us with a somewhat different Princess Peach than many imagined, moving away from the classic damsel-in-distress trope.

Meanwhile, Chris Pratt and Charlie Day’s performances as Mario and Luigi are acceptable. But who truly steals the show is Jack Black as Bowser; crowned by the absurdly catchy piano ballad "Peaches," I believe this is the film’s highest comedic point.

This movie could be the start of something huge. Its sequel, "Super Mario Galaxy," was recently released, and everything seems to indicate that Nintendo is building a cinematic universe based on its most famous characters. With appearances from Donkey Kong and Fox McCloud, it has been hinted that Mario’s incredible world can perfectly share the screen with other characters.

Perhaps, just perhaps, all this is leading toward the long-desired "Super Smash Bros." movie, but that is just my speculation.

"The Super Mario Bros. Movie" is, in its purest essence, a roller coaster ride meant to make the viewer smile. It’s an adaptation that immensely pleases its audience because it’s packed with clever references and Easter eggs. It more than fulfills its goal: delivering a fun, family-friendly adventure and establishing the starting point for Nintendo’s cinematic future.

Rating: 90/100
