Beautiful People-- Comedically Suffering-- Karmically-Caused-- For "Two Weeks-- In Bruges-- Wichu?"

As another fantastic season of Mike White's The White Lotus (his third) comes to a blistering close-- I'm once again reminded of a particularly niche-in-specificity-- cinematic-subset-genre that I often find myself largely hankering for, drawing towards and returning back to. That of which I like to call-- "Beautiful People Being Utterly Miserable, While Totally Trapped In Paradise, & Comically St

However, this process

From Mob Leader to Korean President: Jung-min Hwang's Portrayal of Good & Evil

Hwang Jung-min as Chun Doo-hwan in The Seoul Spring, aka 12·12: The Day (2024). Hello, Peliplaters! In Western culture, organized crime is often synonymous with the Italian Mafia, particularly as depicted in The Godfather (1972). Deliberately speaking thoughts grounded in principles, Marlon Brando's portrayal of mafia boss Vito Corleone embodies aristocratic grace. The Godfather has profoundly sha

The Penguin: Too Dark to be Likeable

Colin Farrell as The Penguin. Hello, Peliplaters! I've long wanted to discuss The Penguin (2024) with you, but I've struggled to articulate this complex character. At times, I even consider him more intricate than the Joker. While the Joker's style is erratic, it maintains a certain predictability. Renowned actors like Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, and Joaquin Phoenix have all offered compelling i

"The Penguin", and how to be the most amoral comic-book adaptation out there

I love you, Matt Reeves. You make me so happy. The Batman was an amazing movie, one of the best experiences I had in a movie theater in the last half decade, and the promise of a series was kind of worrying me. I usually do not watch series, most of the time is just filling without substance, but The Penguin is nothing like that. Colin Farrell's Oswald Cobb, The Penguin, is trying to put his life

Hey, Vengeance! You think I wouldn’t get my own series, huh?

"This city is like an open sewer, you know, it’s filled with filth and scum. Sometimes I can’t stand it. Whatever it is, the president should just... really clean it up, you know what I mean? Sometimes I go out and smell it. It gives me headaches; it’s so bad, you know. It’s like... it never goes away, you know. It’s like I think the president should clean up this mess. He should just flush it dow

The Penguin: A Movie Stuck In A TV Show's Body

The Penguin (2024) is shaping up to be a gripping addition to the DC Universe, particularly for fans of gritty crime dramas. Colin Farrell’s performance as the titular Penguin is undeniably the highlight of the series. However, the series has an interesting conundrum—it feels like a cinematic experience, but the episodic format seems almost out of place. One of the key frustrations for viewers mig
