During 97 minutes, directed by Claudia Llosa “Aloft” is a journey through the power of the mind, a journey that forces us to confront the immensity of such concepts as love, order, chaos and faith. Jennifer Connelly, Cillian Murphy and Mélanie Laurent star in this character-driven and mythic film. Set in the immense, raw beauty of the Arctic north, Claudia Llosa jumps between the past and present to weave a magical and otherworldly tale of loss, grief, and forgiveness.
A mother who abandons her child for the common good; a son who abandons himself and his own ability to feel in order to bear the weight of tragedy; and a woman who abandons her life to follow her one obsession of curing herself. Three characters – complicated, human, flawed – reveal themselves to us, reflecting on the difficult balance of creating a full life while assuming its fragility and uncertainties.
ALOFT is a journey into a cathedral of healing and into a world full of belief and trust and has one of the best engaging stories. Connelly, Murphy and Laurent had the best roles in a well structured character in behavior and performances. In some moments, the viewer can feel unpleasant experiences with each character and emotions that distinguish the story so this film is a journey back to ourselves.

From Director Ross Katz and experienced cast as Rose Byrne, Nick Kroll, Bobby Cannavale, Paula Garces, Jane Krakowski, Joel McHale, Bobby Moynihan, Mike Birbiglia and Josh Charlesa young, a young hipster entrepreneur (Nick Kroll) crashes and burns on the eve of his company’s big launch. With his entire life in disarray, he leaves Manhattan to move in with his estranged pregnant sister (Rose Byrne), brother-in-law (Bobby Cannavale) and three year-old nephew in the suburbs — only to become their manny. Faced with real responsibility, he may finally have to grow up — but not without some bad behavior first.
All characters rediscover their humanity in a comedic film with touchy feely leanings. Adult Beginners has some laughs, it’s really more of a gentle dramedy. However, this also reflects the relationship with siblings who have been forced to assess the damage they’ve done to each other, and to reaffirm the fragility and resilience of their bond. Definitely something that happens in real life even if just to see how well Kroll handles some heavier material this film is worth to see it.
In press conference some members of cast said:
Rose Byrne:”The script was well written with a great dialogue and character really since first reading so I tried not to screw up too much. Of course complex relationships are reflected here and that’s why my character has to understand one part of the real meaning of forgiveness.”
Nick Kroll:”This movie has an extension, culturally of my character. I tried to play characters that have emotional intelligence or lack of intelligence just being the character reactions situations. I tried to play comedy and this movie has a lot of things to do me, especially frighten stuff with Bobby and some reactions of my character. It was exciting to explore, especially with Rose’s freighting stuff. “
Bobby Cannavale:”I just tried to be realistic with people with certainly age, especially at 40’s who suppose to be adults and wild and they don’t understand why they still struggling and in my case I don’t want to be my own father.”

Their violent hometown reunion fails to convince two brothers who have to face too much violence in their lives. However, the laws of loyalty, and the futility of violence in the shadows of the US Mexico border gang wars will show a different point form a gritty, thriller about the bonds of brotherhood. Broken Horses, the English language debut film from award winning Indian writer/director/producer Vindhu Vinod Chopra (PK, 3 IDIOTS, PARINDA) has a particular style (surreal and experimental and melodramatic) – was smooth and consistent during 100 minutes. With a well consistent starring Vincent D’Onofrio, Anton Yelchin, Chris Marquette, Maria Velverde, Sean Patrick Flanery, and Thomas Jane, the film promises an intriguing blend of genre elements such as brotherhood, complex reality of drug war in turbulent Mexican-American border and wrong choices that destroys lives, including everything that one loves. Definitely, a good film that makes a difference with the good, the bad and the ugly that sometimes our choices might have benefits or consequences.

During 106 min. this great film (‘3 Coeurs’) with unique French style and contempo which involves a love triangle with a Parisian man Marc (Benoît Poelvoorde) who meets Sylvie (Charlotte Gainsbourg) after missing his train back to Paris. Instantly and intensely drawn to one another, they wander through the streets until morning in rare, almost choreographed, harmony. A thwarted plan for a second meeting sends each in a separate direction –Sylvie reunites with her ex and leaves France; Marc falls in love and marries.
What neither knows is that Marc’s new bride is Sylvie’s sister, Sophie (Chiara Mastroianni). Upon Sylvie’s return to France, the spark between her and Marc is reignited in ways that will forever alter the relationships between sister to sister and husband to wife.
This film reflects part of reality of life. Sometimes one moment changes our lives. Catherine Deneuve still looking quite remarkable. Many locations are settled in Paris and a provincial town south of Lyon. In general it’s powerfully emotional film that references great romances of the past. Even the whole film is spoken in French, you will have the English subtitles so some dialogues are more enjoyable in French; especially, if you understand the basics.
