The best film of the week is “one of the greatest successes of science fiction cinema”

3 best films according to the press:

1: Mars Express – 4/5

“Mars Express is much more than the SF jukebox it appears to be on the surface. Yet it’s this surface that Jeremy Perrin invites us to delve into with its brilliant technique and the insane efficiency of its story. The result is sublime. A film as dizzying as it is profoundly modern.” by Antoine Desrus (Widescreen)

“Following on from his successful series The Last, Jeremy Perrin manages to find the perfect balance between entertainment and reflection in a futuristic world with a dark but visually brilliant setting.” By Azil Briend (L’Obs)

2nd: river – 3.9/5

“River is much more believable with his quiet way of expressing anger and frustration without ever succumbing to catastrophism, and with his unsettling attention to signs of disaster almost invisible here, River is much more believable.” By Alice Leroy (Cahiers du Cinéma)

“The river will not save the world from global warming, but it will feed the ongoing debate in the best way for a filmmaker: by listening to people and observing the world attentively and modestly, not with slogans.” By Serge Kagansky (Defector)

3rd: There is nothing to lose – 3.5/5

“It only takes a little to change everything: director Delphine DeLoger makes her feature debut in a social film with a great cast, especially the perfect Virgin Efira as the imperfect mother.” By Thibaut Lies (Latest from Alsace)

“As a brave mother bereft of a son, Virginie Efira impresses in this poignant and poignant drama.” By Valerie Beck (Le Figaro)

3 best movies according to viewers:

1: Mars Express – 4.1/5

“With artificial intelligence and the colonization of Mars, Jeremy Perrin explores themes that have certainly been explored before, but he does so with a unique touch that will keep us on the lookout for his future work.” by Cinéphiles 44

“Exemplary. Starting with a script that borrows from film noir for its construction, its dramatic progression, enriched by a thousand beautiful SF ideas.” Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

2nd: Nothing to Lose – 3.8/5

“Strong and strong first film, Virginie Efira is brilliant and the kids are moving!” By Francois Landsman

“A moving first film that brilliantly tackles its subject without falling into the usual tear-jerker trap or Stabilo-emphasized ‘message.’ by Differentsky

3rd: Winter in Yangzhi – 3.53/5

“A very beautiful film, full of sweetness, played by a wonderful trio of actors.” by Evabgreze

“An initiatory story of astonishing beauty (aesthetically but also sonically), ‘Winter in the Yangtze’ speaks of hope, the future, self-confidence and reveals her sensuality.” by Traitdunion
