Without Anesthesia review

(OK) One of the best Wajdas. A big man coming apart in a systme in the edge. He is a star thanks to it, so he succumbs thanks to it and to his wife's lib. Interesing character the silent girl she embraces after his wife separation...

Cropped Head review

(Mu) El debut de Rejtman establece su estilo lacónico, Jarmush en Buenos Aires, loosers vícitmas y victimarios con la misma normalidad, se suben y bajan de la moto ajena con bendita frescura...

The Swindle review

(Mu) A minor but interesting Chabrol, he amuses with Serrault and Huppert and their undefined partner/parental/romantic relationship...First half is better, specially in snowy Sils Maria...

Showgirls (1995) review

(Mu) This is special being standard, but Verhoeven goes for extreme sex and competition in high dramatic Las Vegas; there's elocuent harshness in each character encounter. Gina Gershon is far better than the main character...

Malina review

(OK) Huppert once more in a sexy psychopatic role, in the baroque Schroeter swan song or swan puke. All the last hrid part plaing with fire is amazing...

The Stranger review

(Mu) Nice simple clean happy ending story of a family suspecting and then embracing a relative that teaches a lot og global lessons, including the rediscovery of cultural roots. The uncle, naturally, speaks of many great topics...

Silvia Prieto review

(Mu) Humor conmovedor, personajes que se encuentra relacionados y hasta repetidos, se emocionan y mienten por idioteces; sin alardes visuales ni de estilo, no es extravagante, es rara, cada detalle es una joyita como el saco Armani

The Flower of My Secret review

(Mu) Pasión y un poco de amor loco, con fondo de identidades y talentos literarios contrapuestos y una fuga al campo reparador donde la Chus Lampreave, mamá de todos, le dice a Marisa que es una vaca sin cencerro, hermoso....

Pickpocket (1998) review

(Mu) Jia Zhan's first. The depression and psychological escape of a picckpockt after seeing that a close friend of his hasn't invited him to his wedding, because he's ashamed. His rlation to a whore, and the first time he sings, all thar is a kind of dostoievskian; great moving ending...

Old Joy review

(Mu) What doesn't happen (a friendly or even sexy catarsis between friends), or what happenned (an old and mysterious youth joy), is more intense that what you see, but there´s interest in it...
