Oh, Jupiter Ascending, what a glorious mess you are. This science-fiction adventure film is not without its positives, it even is a film that is hard to really despise, though it still is the least successful vision from the directors. The worlds and visuals are a plus, though the story here is regrettably clumsy as it follows the titular Jupiter (...
The feature directorial debut that started it all, Bound is a wonderous subversion of genre that is as exhilarating as it is deeply compelling. It centers on Violet (Jennifer Tilly) who begins to form a relationship with Corky (Gina Gershon). This relationship is also an affair as Violet is the girlfriend of the gangster Caesar (Joe Pantoliano). Wh...
The imperfect finale to the trilogy of films, The Matrix Revolutionsis still a dynamic vision that saw the Wachowskis wrangling all the narrative threads they had established over the prior two entries. It carried on with the prophecy and the looming conflict with the machines, proving to be a giant spectacle that still was carried by strong charac...

It is a film that created its own cinematic grammar and pushed the envelope on what was possible for live-action adaptations. Told with intoxicating and vibrant col...
An adaptation of the novel of the same name by David Mitchell, Cloud Atlasis another work from the directors that deserved more attention than it got. Spanning hundreds of years and vastly different worlds, the timeline of the film stays true to the novel while still bringing it to life as only they could. The result is a truly stunning piece of ar...
There still could only be one film that takes the top spot on this ranking and it was always going to be The Matrix. It is a film that still remains as refreshing and audacious as when it first came out. From the manner in which it questioned our reality to the bonkers action sequences, there is nothing that had been like it when it came out and no...
