1. Parasita
Korean Movie - 2019
This movie deserved the accolades and hype it got. The directing, cinematography, social values and context and the performances of the cast (In particular, Song Kang Ho, Cho Yeo Jong, Park So-dam, Lee Jung-eun & Park Myung-hoon).
A great movie to watch and an interesting story. Well what can you expect from the brilliant director, Bong Joon-ho

2. Hwayi: O Garoto Monstro
Korean Movie - 2013
Dark, sad, gritty and brutal. Yeo Jin Goo masterfully portrayed the broken and enraged Hwayi. The story and the antagonist was fucked up that I utterly gasped at every scene. I absolutely love this movie, and if you are a fan of twisted revenge movies this is the movie you have to watch.

3. Seu Nome Gravado Em Mim
Taiwanese Movie - 2020
Emotional Rollercoaster. This shows how LGBTQ+ couples and individuals struggled back then to fight for who they are. Edward Chen was just stellar in this. A great LGBTQ+ film from Taiwan.

So entertaining. I love that almost all of the cast is recognizable and the story is so well conceived and the chemistry between the two female leads is great.

5. Bad Genius
Thai Movie - 2017
I was so nervous watching this. The scenes were perfectly executed. The acting was just phenomenal. Maybe, one of the best Thai movies out there. A gripping, suspenseful and thought provoking work of art.

6. Peach Girl
Japanese Movie - 2017
This was my first Japanese movie and I loved every bit of it. Kei Inoo and Mackenyu are just so handsome in this especially Mackenyu.
-
7. Invasão Zumbi
Korean Movie - 2016
One of my favorite zombie movies. It made me scared but also emotional mainly because of Gong Yoo, Ma Dong Seok's, & Kim Soo Ahn's performances. The ending broke me so better prepare tissues for this.
-
8. Shark: O Início
Korean Movie - 2021
A great inspiring film with a easy to root for male lead and also Wi Ha Joon is in it, the perfect definition of a action star. Well shot fight scenes and a simple plot.
-
9. A Beleza Interior

A touching unique movie with great cinematography and Han Hyo Joo in her prime. This will make you cry, smile and connect with the characters.

-
13. Seo Bok
Korean Movie - 2021
An enjoyable slow-burn sci-fi film with two great male leads. The dialogues were intriguing and the special effects in the carrie-esque scenes were great. The story is nothing new though and it's actually kind of predictable.
-
14. Boku mo Aitsu mo Shinrodesu
Japanese Special - 2022, 1 episode
This isn't a movie, it's a special but it's length is like a movie. This is just a cute LGBTQ+ positive movie with great chemistry between the male leads.
-
15. Após O Recomeço
Japanese Movie - 2020
A great slow burn BL romance. The chemistry between the two leads is just fantastic.
-
16. Pee Mak
Thai Movie - 2013
This was effing hilarious. The cast did great and the plot is also well fleshed out which is rare for a slapstick comedy.
-
17. Fuga da Meia-Noite
Korean Movie - 2021
Suspensful and Thrilling. The story is a little predictable and some choices in this movie is frustrating to watch but the performances of Jin Ki Joo & Wi Ha Joon are a standout, which makes this more thrilling to watch.
-
18. Os Piratas
Korean Movie - 2014
This was better than the first movie. A well rounded plot and Kim Nam Gil and Son Ye Jin stole the show.
-
19. Junto Com Os Deuses: Os Últimos 49 Dias
Korean Movie - 2018
The first movie was better but this movie was still heartfelt and well thought out. Ju Ji Hoon and Kim Hyang Gi yet again steals the spotlight.
-
20. His
Japanese Movie - 2020
A touching Japanese LGBTQ+ Film. That talks about Parenting, Divorce and forgiveness.
-
21. O Garoto Lobisomem
Korean Movie - 2012
Song Joong Ki & Park Bo Young's chemistry is so cute and the story is rather simple but the ending was just not IT for me but overall, I liked it.

22. Samjin Group English TOEIC Class
Korean Movie - 2020
A great female empowerment movie. There were some boring parts but the plot was explained well and the bond of the three girls were great.
-
23. Sintonizada em Você
Korean Movie - 2019
A melancholic melodrama between two people. I love the calm atmosphere and the chemistry between the leads but it was kind of boring at some parts.
-
24. Okja
Korean Movie - 2017
I hardly remember some parts of this movie but I did remember how I liked it. Tilda Swinton is amazing here but I think this is Bong Joon Ho's weakest work.
-
25. Os Piratas: Em Busca do Tesouro Perdido
Korean Movie - 2022
A jump packed brainless funny film with great acting performances by Kang Ha Neul, Han Hyo Joo and Lee Kwang Soo.
-
26. Udagawachou de Matteteyo
Japanese Movie - 2015
A great exploration of Gender Identity. Some moments were beautifully shot and the two characters were quite complex. Some scenes though are quite questionable.
-
27. Doce e Amargo
Korean Movie - 2021
An OK movie with a great plot twist. Krystal and Chae Soo Bin carried this film. The whole metaphor in the movie is great.
-
28. The Girl on the Bulldozer
Korean Movie - 2021
Kim Hye Yoon was so good at this movie even though her character was quite irritating. The whole movie presents itself quite messy but it had potential.
-
29. Assalto ao Túmulo
Korean Movie - 2020
Lee Je Hoon carried this film. It's an OK heist film but the plot twist was executed great though. The movie just suffers from the boring pacing.
