Is Minions 2 the best movie of the week?

3 best films according to the press:

1: Ennio – 3.9/5

“Without putting his foot against the wall and expanding his collaboration with the maestro, Tornatore, the director of the plan, perfectly illustrates the process that gradually transformed the son of a small trumpeter (jazz) into a musical giant of the 20th century. Century..” Vincent Austria (L’Humanité)

“Through the extensive archives, often with relevant speakers, paying as much attention to the works as to the man, Giuseppe Tornatore has created a cinematic portrait of Ennio Morricone at the height of his immense subject.” Jeff Marcade (Les Fiches du Cinéma)

2nd: Peter von Kant – 3.6/5

“French filmmaker loosely adapts Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant and pays cheeky tribute to German director who died in 1982. New success for unpredictable director.” By Olivier de Bruin (Les Echos)

“Peter von Kant is neither a pastiche nor a copy. Rather, from one film to another, ‘The Beautiful Infidel’, according to Baudelaire’s principle of translation. A successful exercise in admiration as it oscillates between osmosis and distance.” Author Gerard Lefort (Les Inrockuptibles)

3rd: Sadness – 3.22/5

“Beware those of you who think you’re going to find a bad, light and entertaining B-series: for all its generosity, The Sadness shatters the humanity of its characters and ours in the process. Matthieu Jaborska (widescreen)

“Like a ride on a 200-per-hour ghost train, the film scares, teases, and then screams, and the audience too often finds themselves on the edge of their seats, incredulous at the onslaught of violence. ” By Marc Godin (Le Point)

3 best movies according to viewers:

1: Ennio – 4.5/5

“An excellent, fascinating documentary. It’s a real treat to hear the music of a legendary composer in the cinema and to see the great classics on the big screen. Fantastic!” Simon R.

“What a joy to get to know the man behind the artist, with images commented on shortly before his death. An intense and brilliant documentary that is a must-see.” Maeva L.

2nd: Minions 2: Once Upon a Time Gru – 3.7/5

“It’s a really fun movie and accessible to everyone. It’s perfect to go with the family as well as with friends. Don’t hesitate!” By Nolan Margotat Zamperetti

“Although there are many air holes between scenes full of good ideas, this second installment of Minions shows quality production, with a soundtrack that is ‘so vintage.'” By Guillaume

3rd: Sadness – 3.2/5

“In short, the film that made me think of ‘Last Train to Busan’ and ‘Irreversible’, a hybrid of crazy and thoughtful film, a work that seems anachronistic in the current cinematic landscape, while its themes are dramatically relevant (. . .)” Rube E.

“(…) We are amazed by the quality of the make-up and the visual effects that ultimately add to the horror, on the other hand, on the extreme side, we choose a certain sequence where the hemoglobin waves are incredible. Blood Geyser.” by Sydney
