As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 3, O Encantado review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 30 August 2016 09:08 (A review of As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 3, O Encantado)

Gomes is a little tired. The chaffingers story is long, reiterative. The Scheherezade sotry is better: really enchanting, naif, aquarian.

As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 2, O Desolado review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 30 August 2016 08:51 (A review of As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 2, O Desolado)

More philosophical than the other tales. Simon is really desolate in his evil rural ways and I love his return to home to have a decent meal. Dixie the dog "a machine of love and oblivion" has just a glimpse of grandeur. The judge's tears is sharp and simple.

As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 1, O Inquieto review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 30 August 2016 08:39 (A review of As Mil e Uma Noites: Volume 1, O Inquieto)

The idea is laboriously established, first with a self documentary descirbing Gomes's inner mood and portuguese historic condition. First story is 'pasoliniesque', but the cock's trial and the girl in love that puts tue country on fire, is top.

La Memoria del Agua review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 29 August 2016 10:08 (A review of La Memoria del Agua)

Bize es afectado, como sus actores. La estructura está bien, pues uno intuye la tragedia del hijo muerto en la piscina; pero la pareja está llena de afectaciones (la profesión rebuscada, las líneas).

El apóstata review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 29 August 2016 10:07 (A review of El apóstata)

No está mal, salvo actores más o menos débiles, como el director. De todos modos, el protagonista luce una aniñada provocación hacia el mundo que es lo mejor. Final redondito.

A Monster with a Thousand Heads review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 29 August 2016 10:04 (A review of A Monster with a Thousand Heads)

Thriller antisistema con una protagonista sobregirada pero coherente en su moralidad. El hijo adolescente le hace buen contrapunto con su indolencia, que resulta en sensatez. Lo bueno es que se decanta rápido.

From Afar review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 29 August 2016 09:59 (A review of From Afar)

Venezuela es solo el perfecto telón de fondo de esta suerte de 'vírgen de los sicarios' donde la fatalidad del cariño de un viejo a un joven es similar, pero acá con ajuste de cuentas.

Embrace of the Serpent review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 29 August 2016 09:57 (A review of Embrace of the Serpent)

Bella y sincera, la pose queda para las interpretaciones y para algunas líneas muy 'self eco conscious' de los indígenas. El alemán pueblerino y el gringo bostoniano resumen dos enfoques con poca diferencia. El olvido juguetón de Karamakate media estupendo entre ambos.

Caravan review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 21 August 2016 10:37 (A review of Caravan)

OK adventure melodrama, ambiguous good & evil. Jean Kent as the 'carmaenesque' gypsy is better than Anne Crawford. Granger is looking for Hollywood and he derserves so.

The Light at the Edge of the World review

Posted : 8 years, 8 months ago on 21 August 2016 10:34 (A review of The Light at the Edge of the World)

Freaky Verne story. Excellent cast. Duel Douglas vs Brynner pays ok. Eggar goes from innocence to scheme very well.
