Top Movie of the Week Stuns and Touches Hearts!

TOP 3 MOVIES ACCORDING TO THE CRITICS:

1st: Black Dog – 4.2/5

“This tale has style, plenty of it, and bite. Lang and his greyhound companion escape across ghostly steppes, home to a forsaken circus and zoo. It’s a dying world where animals seem to dominate. A story or a warning?” By Julien Rousset (Sud Ouest)

“Crossing the blurry borders between earned freedom and imposed marginality, between animality and humanity, it’s quite the beautiful escape.” By Alexis Campion (La Tribune Dimanche)

2nd: The Daughters of the Nile – 3.8/5

“Directors Ayman El Amir and Nada Riyadh deliver a film of rare power and deep humanity about the struggle of a street theater troupe fighting for survival. Essential and universal.” By Mohamed Berkani (Franceinfo Culture)

“A very pretty Egyptian documentary.” By Renaud Baronian (Le Parisien)

3rd: Mickey 17 – 3.7/5

“A science fiction fable as spectacular as it is skillful.” By Thierry Chèze (Ouest France)

“A mix of film noir and comedy, this dystopia with extreme weather conditions uniquely carries an ecological message about humanity (…).” By Françoise Delbecq (Elle)

TOP 3 MOVIES ACCORDING TO AUDIENCES:

1st: Black Dog – 4/5

“Impressive. An unusual narrative of rare thematic richness about urban imbalances or the concept of redemption. Masterful direction. The Un Certain Regard Award given to this Chinese film was well deserved.” By norman06

“This great film raises many questions, right up to the last image where one wonders whether it’s snowflakes or ashes engulfing the screen. A must-see.” By Jipéhel

2nd: In the Kitchen of the Nguyens – 3.9/5

“Discovered at a festival in Compiègne, this film is a delightful treat that does wonders in these troubled times. It’s superbly written with humor and poetry, acted and directed with great efficiency.” By lea r.

“A very successful first film, both deep and funny.” By Elisabeth Léculée

3rd: Mickey 17 – 3.7/5

“Mickey 17 is a sharp political satire, critiquing populist and eugenic capitalism (any resemblance to actual persons…). Pattinson is a magnificent anti-hero navigating a declining world. Truly, it’s a cinematic experience not to be missed.” By ned123

“A great science fiction film by Bong Joon-ho about the dangers of cloning in the future.” By Fabien Sorrant
