j’ai rarement vu des films qui m’ont fait autant badder
Excellent
Masterclass
Thriller, policier (1991)(USA)
Revisionnage. J’ai vraiment la sensation que c’est un bon film qui ne vieillit pas mal. La prestation de Nicholson est toujours aussi impressionnante. Le film est après moi un peu sur côté mais reste vraiment cool à voir.
Un duo improbable entre une jeune enquêtrice et un génie cannibale qui parle comme s’il te jugeait en permanence. Glacial, brillant, ça te colle une ambiance malsaine mais impossible à lâcher.
Un peu Gore mais tueur en série chouette, coeur sur Jodie foster
