Elokuvat 2020 (530 movies items)"En tiedÀ kumpi taho tuottaa epÀaidompia elokuvia, suurten liikeyritysten komiteat vai populaarikulttuurifanipojat. Panos Cosmatos on niin haltioissaan erilaisten pintojen tekstuureista ja erilisista jo-olemassaolevista taideteoksista/viihdeteollisuuden tuotteista, ettÀ hÀn on tÀysin kyvytön tekemÀÀn oikeaa elokuvaa. Olen aivan kurkkuani myöten tÀynnÀ tÀtÀ viime aikojen ''kasari''estetiikkaa, synthwavea ja neonvaloa. Vain kohtaus, missÀ Nikolas karjuu kalsareillaan ja vetÀÀ viinaa"

LeffapĂ€ivĂ€kirja 2020 (7 movies items)"HĂ€vyttömĂ€n tyylikĂ€s taidekauhuleffa. Ăverit vĂ€rifiltterit ym. toimivat tĂ€ssĂ€ yllĂ€ttĂ€vĂ€n hyvin tahdotun tunnelman saamiseksi, tietenkin yhdistettynĂ€ mahtavaan soundtrackiin. Harvoinpa sitĂ€ missÀÀn elokuvassa kuulee nĂ€in puhtaasti ei -elokuvamusiikkityylistĂ€ musiikkia. TĂ€ssĂ€ tapauksessa taustalla soi jonkinnĂ€köinen horror synth / dark ambience / drone metal, ja kuullaampa yhdessĂ€ kohtauksessa melkeinpĂ€ lĂ€hinnĂ€ black metal -henkistĂ€ matskua. Osuvaa, kun ottaa huomioon ettĂ"

Top 10 Manliest Movies of 2018 (10 movies items)" "You're just meat. Without a soul, without a brain, without anything. Animal. You, you have no spirit- everlasting! No, no radiant light! I possess elucidations you will never know!" Arriving from director Panos Cosmatos (son of the late George P. Cosmatos, who was responsible for such '80s gold as Rambo: First Blood Part II and Cobra), Mandy is a weird, hard-to-nail mood piece which finds Nicolas Cage able to both act legitimately, and ham it up. It's a simplistic revenge story, with Cage seek"

BradWesley123's Movie Journal- November 2018 (29 movies items)" DVD- 2hrs. 1min. First Viewing I respect so much of the vision and craftsmanship on display in Mandy, in conception and execution, that it begrudges me to say that it bored me. Filmmaker Panos Cosmatos has crafted an immaculate movie, scoring top notch work from every member of his crew. Cinematography, sound, score (JĂłhann JĂłhannsson's final score might just be his best), acting (especially Cage's go-for-broke work), etc; he's done Fincher-level work creating mood and atmosphere in a film.

Equal Parts Brutal & Beautiful
“I was afraid Mandy wouldn't live up to the hype, but this film stood and delivered. It contains some of the finest atmosphere building and mood setting I've witnessed in a modern film. The cinematography and use of color are mind blowing. The story is minimalist but well done. There aren't many films that can make me genuinely unsettled but also get me to laugh at how ballsy and over the top they are.
This movie felt like it was tailor made for Nicholas Cage and it was great to see him in a fitting role again. I'd never heard of Panos Cosmatos before this film, but I certainly hope he directs more movies. As stylish revenge films with philosophical undertones go, this is top notch stuff.” read more
