Why watch this film?
Fully shot with iPhone 7 Plus cameras, 'Disturbance' is the new film from Steven Soderbergh ('Erin Brockovich: A Woman of Talent'). A provocative production that brings reality closer with this more homemade filming, making cinematography closer to the viewer. Even so, Soderbergh does not neglect elaborate scenes and a refined aesthetic.

Sex, Lies and Videotape
A smart screenplay, with a superb direction from Steven Soderbergh, in a movie that knows how to blend good dialogues and the zeitgeist of the 1980s with a strong sexual charge, resulting in an unpretentious yet iconic feature film. No wonder, it won the Palme d'Or - the main award of the Cannes Film Festival - in 1989.
Erin Brockovich
Directed by Steven Soderbergh and based on a fascinating (though with some creative license) true story, 'Erin Brockovich' is a legal drama sustained by Julia Roberts' performance in the titular role. Her work ultimately earned her the Oscar for Best Actress.
The Laundromat
The reality is that, in most games, for someone to win, well... someone else has to lose. This dialogue from 'The Laundromat' perfectly sums up the massive leak known as the "Panama Papers", which exposed the tax evasion of hundreds of public figures who hired a Panamanian law firm to take advantage of tax havens and enrich themselves at the expense of others. It may seem dull at first, but with this movie (which was part of the Venice Film Festival and Toronto Film Festival selection), director Steven Soderbergh ('Erin Brockovich', 'Ocean's Eleven') recreates the events of the case through acidic humor to make them quite digestible and even enjoyable, much like Adam McKay's 'The Big Short' or 'Vice'. If none of that convinces you, 'The Laundromat' also features a star-studded cast led by Meryl Streep, Gary Oldman, Antonio Banderas and Jeffrey Wright.
High Flying Bird
Steven Soderbergh, from films such as 'Sex, Lies and Videotape' and 'Ocean's Eleven', presents us with the story of an agent and a basketball player risking their might against the NBA and the major league clubs during a lockout. Furthermore, it's the director's second feature film shot on iPhones. The cast features many familiar faces to the public, such as André Holland ('Moonlight'), Kyle MacLachlan ('Twin Peaks'), Zazie Beetz ('Deadpool 2') Caleb McLaughlin ('Stranger Things'), while the screenplay is by Tarell Alvin McCraney (who also wrote 'Moonlight').
Contagion
One of the most popular films by filmmaker Steven Soderbergh (of 'Ocean's Eleven'), 'Contagion' follows the director's style to a tee. The plot is intricate, with overlapping stories, while the characters are extremely real. The epidemic in this case goes against what other filmmakers do. It's more down to earth, more realistic and has everything to do with the health crisis the world lives in and has lived in. In addition, Soderbergh manages to bring together a strong cast from several nationalities, amplifying the tone that a virus does not stop at borders. Special mention must be made of Jude Law, Kate Winslet, Marion Cotillard and Laurence Fishburne, who share intense, powerful scenes.
Ocean's Twelve
Despite not having the charm of the first, it remains an interesting sequel. Steven Soderbergh, back in the director's chair, managed to reunite the stellar cast formed by George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Julia Roberts and many more. The script leaves something to be desired, but it has electrifying sequences and still entertains, mainly due to the presence of Catherine Zeta-Jones and the humor. Unfortunately, it is the weakest of the trilogy and ends up having a very similar formula to the first - which gives that feeling of "I've seen this before". One of the best scenes of 'Ocean's Twelve' is when Matt Damon's character tries to close a deal reciting "Kashmir", a Led Zeppelin song. Soderbergh deserves attention just for this sequence.
Ocean's Thirteen
Sometimes, repeating the formula for a second (and even third) time takes away the fun. This is the case here. 'Ocean's Thirteen' is the conclusion of the franchise that began in 2001, with the remake of 'Ocean's Eleven'. As in the first movie, Las Vegas is once again the backdrop of the story and the 2000s Rat Pack formed by George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Andy Garcia and Matt Damon returns even more powerful. This time, the production even brings Al Pacino, who gives an extra life to the plot. What is missing from the movie are actresses Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta-Jones, who did not return for the last chapter of the franchise.
Let Them All Talk
In "Let Them All Talk", Steven Soderbergh typically finds room to let his creativity run wild with looser, faster plots and even considerable space for improvisation. In this HBO Max original production, we follow a successful writer (Meryl Streep) on a cruise ship journey with her friends and nephew. Despite some story excesses, "Let Them All Talk" stands out for Streep's brilliance on screen, with truly standout moments -- in addition to the good performances of Dianne Wiest and Candice Bergen as the protagonist's interesting friends. An agile, fast-paced movie with a strong and surprising ending at the very least.
Kimi
Starring Zoë Kravitz from 'The Batman', the feature film 'Kimi' takes up the subject of agoraphobia - also addressed in 'The Woman in the Window' - by telling the story of an agoraphobic Seattle worker who discovers evidence of a crime. With the exciting and elegant direction of Steven Soderbergh, from 'Ocean's Eleven' and 'Out of Sight', the movie brings an interesting mix of thriller with science fiction, surprising the viewer with the unexpected course of the narrative. Absolute highlight for Kravitz, who does well in a very challenging role.
No Sudden Move
Starring Benicio del Toro and Don Cheadle, 'No Sudden Move', Steven Soderbergh's (director of 'Contagion' and 'Erin Brokovich') new movie is about a group of criminals who are hired to steal a document, but the plan goes terribly wrong. It's not absurd to say that Soderbergh is one of the most prolific and daring directors working today. Even if he doesn't always get it right, he still deserves credit for taking risks on various different propositions, experimenting with new ways of making films. His latest gamble is on a stylish, edge-of-your-seat crime thriller with an engaging storyline and a star-studded cast guaranteed to captivate audiences. This is also the director's second movie for HBO Max.
Magic Mike's Last Dance
The Magic Mike franchise returns with two of its creators, original director Steven Soderbergh and star Channing Tatum, to close out the trilogy with a story vastly different from its predecessors. The plot follows "Magic" Mike Lane (Tatum) again, who has left behind his job as a stripper and is now down on his luck, working as a bartender in Florida. However, a wealthy socialite (Salma Hayek) makes him an offer he can't refuse, so he must travel to London and now impart his knowledge to a group of dancers. Though it has more style than substance, 'Magic Mike: The Last Dance' is a more intimate and mature story, an interesting direction for the character's last tale.
Thriller
Fanny Lye Deliver'd
An intense period drama with few resources but a lot of power behind its performances. Set in 1657, Fanny Lye Deliver'd follows a woman (Maxine Peake, from Black Mirror and The Theory of Everything) living in a repressed Puritan marriage. But the arrival of a young couple pursued by a ruthless Sheriff (Charles Dance, from Game of Thrones) changes her life forever and opens up new pathways of possibilities, albeit at a great personal cost. This is a unique production that blends drama and some terror with big ideas about religion and female repression, with plenty of intrigue and flashes of stunning violence that won't leave you indifferent.
La extorsión
A solid Argentine genre film proposal. La extorsión follows a commercial pilot who holds some secrets, which intelligence services start to use against him to extort him and force him to smuggle a suitcase from Argentina to Spain. Naturally, the tension starts to get to him and things get out of hand, in an intense plot with some logic flaws. However, the lead performance by Guillermo Francella (El clan) is, as always, impeccable. If you enjoy thrillers, you're sure to love it.
Death's Roulette
A surprising mix made in Mexico of escape room and horror thriller genres, similar to Saw: juego macabro. In Death's Roulette, we follow a group of seven strangers who awaken trapped in an unknown house. To escape, they have to make an impossible decision: one of them must die, somebody has to agree to it and cannot offer themselves. With time running out to save their lives, the group soon discovers that a dark secret from the past binds them together. Even if it doesn't reinvent the wheel and is a bit predictable, there are interesting twists in the narrative, highlighted by a great cast including names like Maribel Verdú, Adriana Paz and Fernando Becerril. A solid directorial debut for Colombian actor Manolo Cardona, best known for roles in productions such as Narcos and Rubirosa.
