"The Fall Guy" is a movie that aims to cater to a broad audience with its multifaceted approach. Directed by David Leitch, a former action stuntman and now director of films like "Bullet Train" and "Deadpool 2," it is based on the 1980s TV series. The story revolves around Colt Seavers (Ryan Gosling), an action stuntman in decline, who investigates the mysterious disappearance of actor Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson). This disappearance threatens the first movie of his beloved, filmmaker Jody (Emily Blunt). The film's main flaw lies in its attempt to encompass various genres: romantic comedy, action comedy, Hollywood satire, crime mystery, and more. This ambitious scope results in an overly complicated and unclear screenplay. Nevertheless, viewers can appreciate it as an exploration of the intricacies of action cinema, showcasing the charisma of Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt.
One of the great films of the 2017 Oscars, an ode to classic musicals and Los Angeles. This story is about aspirations and dreams and how life leads us down different paths than we once imagined.

With the same pace as the original "Blade Runner," the sequel arrives to delight sci-fi fans and those who have yet to be captivated by the genre. Director Denis Villeneuve ("Arrival") effortlessly transports us back into the world of replicants.

Damien Chazelle (“La La Land”) brings his vision, more human and less heroic, of Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the Moon. With empathy and intimacy, the film introduces us to the man, his fears, challenges, losses, qualities, and flaws – all while reconstructing the events of the space race that led Apollo 11 to land on the barren satellite orbiting Earth. Though it may differ from the director's previous projects, it's a film capable of captivating those seeking both historical accounts and those drawn to human adventure.
