Inside the Mind of a Cat

Inside the Mind of a Cat - Review

Inside the Mind of a Cat is a lovely Netflix documentary, full of good mood and a funny approach to our furry companions.

New research?

The documentary claims to have new breakthrough data from the most recent research about cats. I honestly didn’t see anything that I considered new or completely groundbreaking. Anyone who deals closely with cats daily knows this stuff. It is a matter of observing your pet.

It is evident that they love us, they know their name (unless they have some cognitive issue, which happens), and they can learn things if we take the time and effort to teach them.

Training a cat

As I said, you can teach things to your cat, but the kind of training they refer to here… that’s a whole other level.

I don’t think my cat cares enough to let me train him to do those tricks, and I definitely don’t have the patience.

Purr, purr

Frankly, the most surprising new information I got from the documentary was that the frequency of a cat’s purring was similar to that of a human baby crying. It is difficult to believe, isn’t it?

Cats!

More than a tremendously informative one, Inside the Mind of a Cat is a fun documentary that can provide you with a good time watching. And, of course, the cats are super cute!

Conversations with a Killer: The Ted Bundy Tapes

This is not the sort of show which I usually talk about on this blog. However, as a psychologist, I’m usually quite curious in regards to criminals and their minds; and one of these days I started watching this documentary on Netflix . Taking into consideration the kind of thing this is, I can’t say I ‘liked’ it. I mean what you see in there is nothing to like, but I was rather terrified, which is probably the usual response. Nonetheless, it was definitely a good documentary. The eyes of a killer Everything displayed in this story was terrible. The descriptions, Bundy’s posture, everything seemed like some sort of horror show, putting into perspective what we may consider to be lucky or unlucky in this life. Before I even start watching it, I read somewhere that this was the kind of thing you shouldn’t watch alone. Sounds accurate right now. At the time, and considering my, mostly academic, experience, I didn’t think that this could actually be so upsetting.

The Mist (2017) - quick review

A thick mist falls up a town, and something about it isn’t right - good premise. We would expect nothing less than good from a Stephen King’s book. Yet, as we all know, book adaptations can be quite disappointing. It goes from good to terrible. I loved the plot and, in the beginning, I was very curious and interested - it was almost impossible to stop watching it. Yet, at some point, it started to get on my nerves, and not in the way that a good horror show should. As we got closer to the end of the season, many things stopped making sense. Some characters are simply… not believable. The explanations for whatever was happening were ridiculous and easily refutable. It all took away the feeling of “this could be real”. It killed my interest. Many changes were made to the original novel. Some of them were interesting and made the story better, yet others were… well, nonsense. Cast and production As I said before, the first episodes were good and made us want to keep watching, but I was

Show Review: Emily in Paris

It took me a long time to give Emily in Paris a shot because I thought it would be a silly, shallow comedy about some sort of influencer. Well, it is a silly, shallow comedy about some sort of influencer, but to be honest, I liked it. Emily is a young talent in a marketing career and has the opportunity of her life: working in Paris for a year! And since her boyfriend is an idiot, she can try the full experience of being a single woman in the city of love. Unfortunately, she is not as good at managing her personal life as she is at work. In fact, she is frankly terrible at making decisions outside work. Cultural Differences Everyone who has been in a foreign country knows that sometimes we get ourselves into awkward situations due to cultural differences. So watching someone else go through the same is quite funny. I must admit that seeing an American trying to speak French is hilarious. Of course, I’m not French (and French people who hear me trying to speak French could have a s
