Not quite my tempo
697 episodes - English - Latest episode: 6 months ago -Reviews, musings and ramblings about cinema.My name's Piotr and I'm a 20-something guy living in Kraków, Poland. Over the past couple of years I went from being a casual moviegoer to a passionate cinema lover, and in the process have not just watched hundreds of movies but also learned a fair bit about the process of their creation. I feel like with this perspective I may have some interesting things to say about the films that I watch, that I would definitely like to get those things out of my head and - hopefully - that I can be informative and helpful to others.I will be reviewing every single movie I watch, not just new cinema releases, but also older films that I may go back to for whatever reason - be it a revisit with a new perspective or simply a first watch of an interesting film that I previously missed.Enjoy.
