it's a special movie deserving of its own kind of event and worth appreciating. Only Tom Cruise makes movies like this, and you either understand why this is pretty wonderful or you should give yourself the chance to find out why.

I am a fan of Saul Williams poetry, specifically his poetry book "Said the shotgun to the head". That is the only reason why I watched the film. The way it was filmed was beyond spectacular. It was the actual story plot that was hard to follow. I don't want to break the rules on this thread but imagine a musical written in 2083. That's what watching Neptune Frost feels like. I would suggest this film for adults only not because of profanity of obscene sexual content, but because of its controversial topics of contention. It just takes a mature mind to absorb what the film is hinting at regardless of what political background that mature mind comes from. I would rate Neptune Frost an 8.8 out of 10. 10 being the best film ever made. It was so creative that it made me think about how stories are traditionally told, and frankly, feel embarrassed by the boring nature of my conditioned palate.
Highly recommended sober or with a glass of 2 of your wine of choice.

For sure I will add it to my watch list. This week I didn't watch anything, I'm trying to be focused on readings.Akinsemoyin Adeola wrote: ↑30 Oct 2023, 11:37 The last movie I saw was Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway. It's an emotional movie based on a true life story. It's a movie I'd love to watch again and again.

I don't know what is happening with my brain, but I'm not in the mood to watch anything like that.Riantini Ariyuni wrote: ↑18 Oct 2023, 22:16 Last movie that would be Transformers : Rise of the beasts. I like adventure movies, I enjoyed and thrilled by the adventure stories. The bum bum sound when the action take part made me want to jump and acted like the hero.
I enjoy adventure movies and fiction. These days I have no patience at all.
Also, I'm with no patience with long movies. What happened with 90-minute movies?

What I love about both movies is the theme of divine compassion and understanding. The lead characters are someone you might not expect God to help. In the first it was God in the form of Krishna. The second was supposed to be Shiva. However, because the story is centered on sex education, censors demanded it be changed to Shiva's messenger. The filmmaker left in clues that it's really supposed to be Shiva though, like how Shiva's bull, Nandi, is shown with the messenger character a few times.
The sequel tackles heavy subject matter really well. I like that the film has a father being there for his son. The mother and sister are there for him too. So there's that family support element. I'm not sure if the first or second film is more complex but they definitely can challenge your thinking in a good way. I'd like to see at least one more movie for it to be a trilogy. They could call it The Divine Compassion trilogy.
