One of my biggest dreams, ever since I’ve discovered movies, and more importantly, ever since I learned more about the industry, has been to go to movie festivals. The idea of seeing more than 1 movie in a day, surrounded by people with similar interests, seemed like heaven. Well, OK, not heaven, but a very…

I went into “2001: Space Odyssey” knowing almost nothing; just that it’s a cult movie and that it was directed by Stanley Kubrick, one of the best directors of all time. Overall, I thought “2001: Space Odyssey” was a great movie. Watching it, I kept thinking “this is probably taught in Film School”. Everything is…
![Spoilery Review- Avengers: Endgame [2019]](https://geekteller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/avengers-endgame-poster-2019.jpg)
I’ve been putting off writing my review for “Avengers:Endgame” for a long time, and it’s probably due to the fact I have mixed feelings about it. Some of the things I didn’t enjoy are also happening in Game of Thrones, but that’s another story. So, to give a context, I saw it Thursday night (before…
![Mini Reviews of Movies I’ve Seen Lately [1]](https://geekteller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/reviews-sicario-big-short-assassination-jesse-james-poster-809x401.jpg)
Sicario I came into this thinking I would love it, but I was pretty disappointed. First, by the fact that the story was underdeveloped. I felt like they spent the first hour and half setting up the story, by finishing it in two scenes and in an unsatisfactory way. Props for Benicio del Toro, but…
The only way to see indie films in Romanian cinemas is to go to film festivals. In the spring we have the American Independent Film Festival (AIFF), and in the autumn we have Films des Cannes. Both show amazing films that otherwise get overlooked by the local cinema, who is only interested in blockbusters and…
![Review: Shazam [2019]](https://geekteller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/shazam-poster-review-zachary-levi.jpg)
Yesterday I went to see “Shazam” with my nephew and I really enjoyed myself, although it didn’t excite me as much as other Marvel movies have done in the past. It’s a sweet, fun movie that feels aimed towards 12-16 year olds, with a charming actors and great dialogue. Since I can’t, for the life…
![Review: Queer Eye [Netflix TV show]](https://geekteller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/queer-eye-netflix-poster-fab-five-809x455.jpg)
I love “Queer Eye”, plain and simple. The main reason I watch it is because it’s one of the extremely few TV shows (entertainment content, actually) where there is no violence or hate or unnecessary drama. Only fun, sweet and uplifting moments. Oh, and the ending is always positive. For those who don’t know, “Queer…

The March Blind Spot challenge pick was “Cat on a hot tin roof”. I’ve wanted to see this movie for a long time, mostly because of the two main actors, Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman, and I am glad I did. I absolutely loved it. It was well acted, with an interesting storyline and a…
![Review: The lost city of Z [2016]](https://geekteller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/the-lost-city-of-z-poster-review-809x455.jpg)
The things we do for handsome men… I decided to watch “The lost city of Z” shortly after seeing Triple Frontier, so I could bask some more in the glory of Charlie Hunnam. He is a gorgeous guy, but also a pretty decent actor, so I wanted to see “The Lost city of Z” because…
![Review: Triple Frontier [Netflix 2019]](https://geekteller.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/triple-frontier-netflix-review-poster-809x329.jpg)
To say I was excited about Triple Frontier is an understatement. Ever since I learned about this movie, and specifically, about the cast, I was completely on board and eager to see the film. Because, really, wouldn’t you want to see an action movie with Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Charlie Hunnam, Garrett Hedlund and Pedro…
