“My Lens” is the heart of this website — a space curated with personal perspectives, thoughtful breakdowns, and cinematic reflections that go beyond traditional reviews. This section exists to express how I, as a film enthusiast, experience cinema: sometimes emotionally, sometimes critically, and often with a blend of both.
It features a collection of sections that reflect deeper conversations, subjective takes, thematic retrospection, and lists that rank or group films in engaging ways.
What You’ll Find Under “My Lens”
1. Cinema Dissected
This is where I dive deep into why certain movies succeed or fail. It includes analytical discussions on film choices, storytelling structure, directorial intent, and much more. Think of it as post-screening discussions — broken down, structured, and laid out for fellow movie lovers.
2. Wabi Sabi Cinema
Named after the Japanese aesthetic of embracing imperfection, this section is a celebration of films that might be flawed but hold a special emotional or artistic charm. They deserve to be watched, enjoyed, and appreciated — because they offer something beautifully human despite their rough edges.
3. Anniversary Rewind
Films — whether cult classics or underrated gems — deserve a celebration on their anniversaries. Here, I revisit such films with fresh reviews, offering retrospective viewpoints that celebrate their legacy, themes, and lasting impact across all languages and eras.
4. Film Lists
This sub-section features curated lists such as “Top 5”, “Top 7”, or franchise rankings like “The Conjuring Films Ranked”. These lists cut across languages and genres, providing a dynamic, comparative take on films based on various themes, performance, legacy, or just personal preference. It’s engaging, snackable content for the list-lovers.
5. Review Structure & Philosophy
A detailed look into how I approach film reviews — including the various formats used across the site, such as standard theatrical reviews, short films, and in-depth breakdowns. It also outlines the core philosophy of this website: to keep things audience-centric, honest, and bottom-line oriented. Rather than dissecting films only on technical terms, I focus on what works for the viewer, and how the film connects emotionally and thematically.
