Going to hell for laughing
“It’s all about the greater good”
It’s your typical buddy cop film, but what sets it apart is the fact that it makes you laugh, instead of making you want to gouge your eyeballs out using two stalactites. Hot Fuzz is love letter to action films and it’s got everything that you would want from a comedic piece. Memorable set pieces, quotable lines, great characters and that jolly british dark humour. What I loved the most about it is how the plot gets more and more ridiculous as the film progressing, culminating in a ending so silly, that you can’t help but smile.
"It's a fairytale f*cking town, isn't it."
At a first glance In Bruges is just a funny film about two hitmen and at second glance it still is that, only difference being the themes. Resentment, punishment and redemption are some of them, which are tackle through the usage of jokes or genuinely touching pieces of conversation. Morality and religion are also a big issue being at stake during the film. Albeit the humour is dry to say the least, it’s a British humour after all, the film is surprisingly heartfelt and beautiful at moments. Is as if the characters used humour to cope with their problems. A disguise where they can hide. However, no matter how serious or deep the movie is, at the end of the day, it still is a comedy and In Bruges is one where every single joke hits, where you find a quote in every single alcove and where the characters aren’t just japes machines. Meaning, that they don’t exist just to make a funny remark.
“That rug really tied the room together.”
A movie with seemingly no plot, only existing for the sole purpose of showing The Dude’s life and relationships. It’s a trip filled to the brim with excellent performances channelled through out of the world characters such as Walter, Donny, Jesus, the nihilists and many more that help create a surreal atmosphere all throughout the film. All of the jokes hit the bullseye. There are endless quotes and funny moments, thanks to the sharp script, making the movie very memorable. So memorable that it’s got a festival. The Big Lebowski is the quintessential ‘bro’ movie, quotable and seemingly meaningless, but at the end of the day, that’s just, like, my opinion, man.

This Bro may seem happy in the picture, but the truth is that with the daydreaming power of shoegaze and the existential dilemmas of drama movies (really sad ones), he has reached a personal point brolization. Camilo was born and lived his worm gestation in the chaotic highlands of La Paz, Bolivia.

Juan is a long bro, like weird tall lanky bro, but its all good. He has enjoyed the same things throughout his life, music and skateboarding. They both seem to compliment each other in his life and help expose him to other sides of culture. He is from Panama, you know, not the one in Florida.

The explorer. Legend says he travelled in the most remote locations of the globe but also the weirdest places in the art world. Discovery his middle name. Pop culture is for him a way of living. You say Memes, YouTube, Foreign movies, classical world literature, Jazz? He’s your man. Frenchman by blood, Arab by culture, but most importantly, brother of everyone he interacts with. It’s just for you to know that he’ll always be there if you need help, bro.

I love nightcruising in Land Rover Defenders. Dadrock is what I listen to and the books by Jules Verne are what make me go out into the wild on weekends. I was born in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. I like berets.

I am Luis, actually you wouldn't know because you can't confirm that I wrote this, but I digress. I was born in Colombia and that (being born) has been the biggest achievement in my life, unfortunately, for some reason most people attributed the hard wok to my mother. I enjoy dry and silly humour, sample based music, funny books, and films that are engaging and touching.
