ANOTHER SPANISH SUSPENSE HIT !!!
31 January 2021
It reminds us of casa de papel showing people who brake the law but make them likeable.too many plot holes and cliches but somehow it keeps its quality with good performances,nice pace,and delivers good entertainment.

Watchable
14 November 2020
Nice production and charismatic actors make this worth a watch.thing is..in a movie of this genre someone saves the planet,not does everything to save their own a...s.did not understand why this movie was made,or why we should care that specifically this family must be saved while everyone else will disappear.

Ava (IV) (2020)
3/10
Boring and cliché
21 August 2020
No real reason for this movie to be made.100% predictable,no likeable characters,no one to root for,chastain kicks ass just about everyone but does not seem strong or body trained,the whole thing is laughable.she also does not possess the star power to like her regardless.boring and stupid.

..a little something for the system..
1 July 2020
Warning: Spoilers
It could have been just a story about a woman a thief and some drugs.but the script uses that story to speak about a woman's struggle to raise two children,about police corruption,the usual enemy called social service,and how she has to "evolve" in order to fight all of them.a real punch to the system.i recommend it !!!!!

Enjoyable little movie with bruce in a suitable role,goodman momoa,janssen and other famous actors doing cameos like david arquette.does not pretend to be something bigger,these kind of movies always have star rating problem.like the old burt reynolds movies..you know,smokey,cannonball.if you enjoy these kind of movies i recommend this one.

Toy Boy (2019– )
5/10
toilet paper script
29 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Otherwise enjoyable soap gets easily burried under 60+ too many minutes an episode,the most idiotic character hero ever written,the corrupted cop who has a talent of appearing exactly the right time and place to cover his s..it,over and over..and over again.a character who goes from one hospital to another just too many times.the whole thing is piece of junk.and needless to say as with all these crappy soaps,you know that the story will be left uncomplete so that after watchind 13 episodes and around 14 hours of boredom,you would want more of this.to think that in spain it was not well received because of its lack of ..sex.don't know maybe they are right.only way to keep your eyes open to this.

Great all around production with an exceptional performance by signe olsen.last 3 episodes feel that they drag the already told story,but that's ok.hope there's going to be a second season,we want the romance between jan and louise to evolve.

Plot is interesting until things turn ridiculous.i am not even going to analyze this irritating movie with a stupid and bad ending.its only worth is ester esposito.but its mostly dark and you don't enjoy her presence a lot.oh,and it stands out from other stupid movies because it reminds us of something very important.DON'T DRIVE IF YOU'RE TIRED.

16 January 2020
Everything works with this show.the gang is all likeable and have chemistry of course it's Cobie Smulders's exceptional charisma that ties the whole thing together.too bad the season has only 12 episodes.already looking forward for a renewal with many more episodes !! JUST GREAT !!!!!

it's like magic !!!!!
18 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
it either lifts you up or it does not.either you leave the theater humming the 4 notes ( the next 7 just following) all the time or u don't.you either leave thinking why couldn't they try to save what they had,why didn't he propose to her right after the "fateful" audition ?but in a way we know that their dream was first priority.and they both got theirs.so it's a happy end.or isn't it? well i'm a fan.i just watched it and i feel to call it close to a masterpiece.maybe tomorrow i may have another opinion.but then,now the movie has lifted me.tomorrow who knows.OK.logic now.the singing is not done by professional singers.the dancing also.it's a glee kind of thing maybe worse.there are two songs,especially one,that keeps repeating so it's not exactly a musical.well then what is it ? it's magic.it's the bunny on the hat kind of thing.you either loved the trick or you did not.i did.and either way of looking at it,it's sweet.it's a sweet romantic movie.that's a fact.now maybe some did not like the romance either.OK.but i would suggest ..go and see it.it's a journey.don't let others tell you about it.go and do it yourself.good luck !!!!

Live by Night (2016)
7/10
stylish but soulless
15 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
for me the main problem is ben.or ben's character in the movie.he's got this bored look on his face.and he does not succeed in making us like him..somehow.or care of what will happen to him in the end.isn't that the point?to be charmed in a way.on the bright side,both actresses are charming without trying,sienna and zoe.other than that ,i read some reviews talking about a bomb.i don't agree.it's an expensive production,well directed,acceptable acting,nice action scenes.maybe the script needed a little spice.a little more of a human condition.enough to care.it's too much matter-of-fact about how the mob business must be run.i mean who cares.we need a little faster editing,suspense scenes with characters to care.we need the suspense of argo,and the darkness of gone baby gone.i am surprised because ben's first love i think is screenplay.what happened there?still nicely watched but you forget it once you leave the theater.

another tom ford winner
13 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
i thought it was a very well organized movie.although when the plot of the book starts i was afraid i would see just another violent meaningless thriller.but then the parallel stories begin and the movie started having interest.OK i have to say this guy caught in this situation one ugly truth is you wish he had a couple of guns with him in the car.the ONE really interesting truth for me in the movie is the metaphor of the death of his wife and daughter in the book. because he thinks he acted "weak".in reality his wife left him and because of this she "killed" his child.so no wife no child.this parallel of abortion and a shocking murder is for me the most dynamic realization of the movie.the rest can have so many interpretations,as many are commenting.him about being terminally ill for instance or to all so many reasons why he did not show up in the end.but for me this is irrelevant.in any case it is a movie that has a couple things to tell you and makes you think.also , i have to say the female character of the protagonist ,susan,is very well written and very well,sensitively directed my tom ford.

c,mon it was not that bad guys
6 January 2017
i read some pretty bad reviews from others.OK the movie had no originality.but you knew that ,when you read in the review "two strangers stuck in a place".the actors i thought were playing simple but OK,and young people,or actors ,can sometimes escape bad criticism because hey it is just a little movie,a little romance,and if you think the actors are cute and kind of likable it passes the time.that's what i think about the movie.and i wanted to watch it till the end although yes i knew what was going to happen.my belief is that there is a category of movies that you simply should not judge too harsh.actually the whole thing depends not entirely on the script but in the chemistry of the actors.and i thought these guys were pretty much OK hanging around together.having said that,it was not a great love story or anything as such.but i do not think they intended it to be.i give it a six and a half rating.

feels like a glass of red wine
5 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
i liked this movie.it's not original.but when you do something in a good way you don't necessarily need originality.you have two young very likable characters ,you have the weekend parenthesis plot ,hanging around remembering drinking,forgetting,escaping,singing,talking about the future or avoiding the future ,being in and out of love,romancing.what i especially liked about this movie is ..you cannot pin it down.even now i have to think..why didn't he told her to marry him and stay in nashville,make babies.it's not like she did not give him pointers."i'm pushing 30,all my sisters etc. have families."but it's that kind of a movie.and that kind of a weekend.nora is sweet but just maybe out of a long relationship.and brennan..we feel he is a kind of a victim in the whole movie,but in the end nora tells him that he dumped her the last time because he is too afraid to commit.which we understand it's probably true.OK so he commits to stay in nashville to become a singer again.why can't he commit to propose to her?anyway the movie does not tells us what will happen.although probably she is going to get her act together as she promised and marry that David guy so she can be like her sisters.or maybe not.well..i give the movie seven and a half.IMDb does not believe in half's so i state it here.

Creepy (2016)
5/10
fails to convince
3 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
i watched this movie because i've read on indiewire it is a winner of a thriller.i can say it has a nice little start.but when things get interesting the plot gets silly ,it does not know how to unfold convincingly.i kind of agree with another reviewer ,the one with the 27 i think comments-questions.generally Asian movies love a curtain plot.the one where the innocent gets corrupted and turned,sometimes with dramatic consequences.it is very interesting,and in a thriller it can be very disturbing,but if done with caution.i do not think this movie succeeded in doing so.the acting was good,but from the moment the killer is truly revealed,the action of the characters is boring.too many mistakes.i repeat,is is a very daring quest to make a psychological thriller,but i guess it is not very easy to do.for me the movie is mediocre at best.i don't recommend it.

very good thriller
1 January 2017
Warning: Spoilers
i really liked this movie.i thought it was strong,intense and i totally bought the whole plot.OK maybe if you'd think for a little bit you could understand who the bad guy was,there were not many too many characters to begin with.but the surprise and turning point of the facts altered to me where a surprise.i told you i bought the plot.i am not cynical but i have a long experience in watching movies.for instance i thought jack reacher 2 was a very mediocre predictable movie.also,i don't like movies that tend to show only one side of people.for instance,all women are victims and all men are bad.as this movie is attacked by many to be.but i don't agree.first of all there was a guy who saved her.and the woman lieutenant was a moron.but i think i was grabbed from the very first minute from ms. Blunt's extraordinary performance.maybe that movie was intended to be your typical feminist thriller.but the level of acting from everyone was above average.i am surprise that some people were put off from the fact that blunt was nominated for a screen actors award.i see she is not nominated for a golden globe.that's a shame.it is a long time i have seen such a fragile performance.BRAVO TO HER !!!! also the direction was very good ,with close ups to make you feel the tension ,the fear,and be uncomfortable for the character's problems.i don't know guys ,i think this movie is a winner.it did not get very good review.i just disagree.i strongly recommend it.if only for ms. Blunt's but also ms. Bennett's special performance.

too predictable too bad
30 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
the first movie reacher was OK nothing special but i liked it.this one was so predictable it was boring.and what's with the night.everything happening in such dark places you could not see who was fighting whom.top mistake:the screenwriter could not come up with a better idea of how the killer is going to find the girl in the end,so she has to use her credit card.AFTER she made the first mistake of using her mobile and she was informed by cruise that they will track them down this way.we're talking about a tough girl who learned to live alone,became quite a pick pocket etc.surely they could use their brains to think of another way.the real problem of a plot of this nature is..we know that jack reacher is going to be alright,we know that they will not kill the little girl because..i mean come on,the only person whom i thought maybe could get hurt was the woman turner.but the killer is especially after the girl so no worries even there.so run run run until they meat,that is cruise and the killer ,face to face,and big suspense there who is going to win.also,tom cruise looked a mess in that movie.his face was swollen ,he looked tired kind of bored,like he was in a hurry to finish the picture.

Drive (I) (2011)
9/10
excellent film noir
28 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
anyone else really wants to believe that he made it in the end?perfect plot.the kind that makes you wish for a happy romantic ending,although you know that this movie is going the entirely different way.the masterful motion of the camera that follows ryan in this hypnotically relaxed character,the guy that seems he have seen one bad thing too many in his life,he does not how to react in a nice environment,and bad things follow him around like a curse.the hero with the angelic face and half-smile and kind voice,the guy you don't see him coming.one thing i do not understand.in the end ,it is shown in a way that wants you to think he knew he was going to get stubbed ,but did not care.like he wanted to die.why didn't he tried to make it ,take the family and the money and run away.OK that way probably the family is safer ,but then again you never know,once the mob starts investigating.her husband was one of the gang who stole from them so..it's not like she is completely safe that way.i don't know i don't completely buy the end.entirely engaging movie nonetheless.

beavis and butthead go hiking
21 December 2016
Warning: Spoilers
this movie is bad.it's boring and it's stupid.these guys walk around a mile, or so it seems from the direction,and then they decide to turn back and walk around a week to nowhere,they have no hiking and camping gear,no water,no compass,not even a packbag.they just decide to walk without knowing the area.why does matt decide to kill casey?to spare him of what?they don't seem to have come at the end of their rope yet.they are a little sunburned but nothing spectacular.OK they are tired and hungry and thirsty.but they are kids who still have strength.i don't buy this dramatic kill scene AT ALL.and then just as he kills him there is a highway about a mile ahead.and matt seems calm inside the car.the whole thing is ridiculous.it's a REALLY BAD AND BORING MOVIE.with a little push it could have been a satire movie called THE TWO IDIOTS.maybe that way it would work somehow.
