Ice Merchants (2022)
Slow pace, yet sublime and heart warming
It's incredible how a 14 minute movie without a single word can move you this much.
With just simple and repeated scenes, the director manages to get you to know the characters. For that purpose, this movie makes use of color in a simple way that just makes sense. The slow pace just makes it feel natural and there is no rush to achieve the end of the story.
I also loved the soundtrack, every second of it adds to the story and, in the absence of words, acts as a good way to show feelings from the characters.
Loved this movie, and it's good to see it get this much attention, specially the Oscar nomination.
Y: The Last Man (2021)
Great Idea, Poor execution
As the title suggests, this series had a great idea as the main plot. In the misogynistic world, we live in, this could be of paramount importance to catch attention to this problem.
However, this series decided to focus on things that are not the most important. In my opinion, they should have focused on the problems of losing most of the army and the implications that would have. Instead, they focus on Yorick's escape.
I was really waiting for this series, but in the end, after a couple of episodes, it is disappointing and nothing really important happened so far.
