To help you make your choices, here are the films of the week with the highest ratings by the press on AlloCiné!*
THE 3 BEST FILMS ACCORDING TO THE PRESS:
1st: Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse – 4.1/5
“‘Across the Spider-Verse’ is brilliant in its ingenuity, touching in its emotion and absolutely revolutionary in its technical mastery.” By Amandine Schmitt (L’Obs)
“The feature film, so abundant that it deserves a second viewing, has a crazy and invigorating ambition, freedom, audacity, density.” By Stéphanie Belpêche (Le Journal du Dimanche)
2nd ex-aequo: The Red Island – 3.5/5
“Of rare beauty and intelligence, emotional and political.” By Renan Cros (Cinema Teaser)
“”L’île rouge” is a story of learning that enhances the autobiography of its author to draw a common good: the reasons for revolt, yesterday as today, always and everywhere. L’Île rouge is a film all of you together.” By Gérard Lefort (Les Inrockuptibles)
2nd ex-aequo: Sick of Myself – 3.5/5
“Beneath its air of very dark comedy, Kristoffer Borglit’s film superbly conveys the loneliness and the affront to the body tending to prove to the characters that they are not just mere ghosts of flesh. It is just overwhelming.” By Michaël Delavaud (Culturopoing.com)
“Somewhere between satire and black comedy, Kristoffer Borgli signs tangy portraits of narcissism 2.0 and toxic relationships. A successful first film.” By Simon Hoarau (Cinema Files)
THE 3 BEST FILMS ACCORDING TO VIEWERS:
1st: Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse – 4.5/5
“This is an animated film that does not lack creativity! A top-notch script and a huge amount of visual work. Mind-blowing and absolutely beautiful! A success!” By lyah
“No, Spider-Man Across The Spider-Verse didn’t do as well as its predecessor. It did much better.” By sydney
2nd: Invincible Summer – 4.3/5
“A must-see! We expect to be touched by Olivier’s story, to be moved by the themes of disability and death. We finally come out with a magnificent lesson in universal life that does good.” By Xavier Z.
“A moving testimony, never tearful. An example of optimism and resilience not to be missed under any circumstances.” By josh
3rd: Sick of Myself – 3.5/5
“A variation around narcissism and social networks, with more intelligence than with Ruben Ostlund. It goes far and it’s funny!” By sydney
“The director Kristoffer Borgli translates in a funny, fierce, joyful, horrifying and sometimes even moving way the ravages of the consumer society, of the hyper individualism of our society in which appearance is king with a formidable actress Kristine Kujath Thorp .” By Ufuk K.
