Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three

Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths – Part Three is a movie that can be remembered as the first real superhero animated trilogy.

The End

The End

The End: One of the things I like most about festivals is that you go and enter the cinema and do not know practically anything about the film.

Night Swim

Night Swim

As if plunging into a lazy river of horrors was not enough, completing the experience is ‘Night Swim’ – the excuse your friends give every January to convince you to watch a horror movie with them produced by Blumhouse. “Night Swim” keeps the nets like ‘M3gan’ one calendar year ago. And while I do not

The Imaginary

The Imaginary

The children’s imagination gave birth to the idea of imaginary friends. With just an empty room and some random odds and ends, children can dream up the most outlandish adventures. And every child at that age has an imaginary friend to satisfy his or her needs. In his animated drama ‘The Imaginary’, Yoshiyuki Momose explores
