Knock Knock (2009)
Quite pleasant!
When I saw this short film I was surprised by the elegance used in the images, the colors are beautiful and it's nice to see a different short for once. As a film student it's annoying to see these bunch of shorts where the same thing takes place (a robbery, a murder, a gun shot). This one touched me because it's a love story, told with great music and an unique style. A must see! The music is quality for being a short film, the lyrics are original and sensitive. The actress is hot! That red hair is wow! The mystery woman has something peculiar about her, she steals the thunder and she captures the essence of the short film. In the end, I enjoyed it a lot!
Perro come perro (2008)
It's crap, like for real
I'm from Colombia, and this movie is one of the worst things I've ever seen. Reasons 1. Rip off of No Country for old men: A guy who tries to steal money from a criminal. 2. Rip off of The Departed: A guy who pretends to be something that he's not, the money and the ending. 3. The performances are awful, a bad guy who spits like everywhere, a man who yells at everything that moves. 4. Yes, people curse, but all the time? 5. Rip off of The Sopranos: Duh! Mobsters who kill for fun, that's NOT being the mobster, watch an episode of The Sopranos and that's the portrait of the REAL mafia. 6. The Cinematography, bad colors, bad lighting. 7. It's very illogical, the actions don't go according to the personality of the characters. 8. It's so flat, zero character development. 9. It's too long, it doesn't add anything new. 10. Do they have to explain and justify by talking every little thing that they do? THIS MOVIE HAS NO SUBTEXT!
The Omen (2006)
Not Great, just Good
OK, I saw this movie last night, and I really liked it, first of all the Mia Farrow performance as the nanny from hell was spectacular (plese don't be upset, but it reminded me Louise Fletcher from "One flew over the cuckoo's nest"), she dark, evil but also tender and protective. The scene where Damian kills his mother and his smile at the end of the movie, didn't took my breath, but the dream sequences were pretty scary, the deaths cold, you literally freeze when the nanny kills Damon's mother. I also liked that the movie is full of intentionality, the bathroom scene with Julia, we see a cross backwards, and six windows, three on the right, three on the left...anyway it was a good summer movie, it has some weak points, for example for being a remake the storyline should have been more original, at the end a grown up Damien knowing that the new Savior is coming to end with his reign or something like that, also the music not so good as the first one, but don't trash it, it was good...not great just good
Rosario Tijeras (2005)
Quite a movie!!
This movie was released first in Colombia because it's based in an excellent Colombian book, the movie shows us a Medellin (Colombia) of the 80's, and although you see some holes that are fulfilled if you ever read the book, you'll also love it because it's so well done, that you'll never yawn even once; the performance of the actors is awesome (except the one of Unax Ugalde he has to make a paisa accent and he really sucks on it), but above all the cast, the best is Flora Martinez, she plays a sexy deadly woman, who kills for money and kisses them before shooting them while plays with the heart of two men, who happen to be best friends, anyway is a very good movie and the rest of Latin America and US will be able to enjoy it next year, I hope you watch and enjoy it as much as I did.
Ps: Paisa is like a southern accent around here, I don't know if you've ever heard an interview of Juanes, if you have that's a paisa accent!!!
