Ellas soy yo (Review)

The series traces the personal and artistic life of singer Gloria Trevi, from her early days of winning a TV show, through her time at Sergio Andrade's academy, her time in the all-girl rock band, her rise to stardom as a solo artist, her decline when the paedophilia and corruption of minors scandal broke, to her rise to stardom once again.

[Animation review] [Eng | Esp] Dragon ball Super: Super Hero

The soundtrack is fine, it doesn't have as magnificent an impact as the previous section but in general terms it fulfills its purpose, I have to admit that I was expecting musical pieces that would give me goosebumps like the original series and even Super used to have, however That doesn't mean it's a bad section, it's just that I had higher expectations than what it ended up being.

Saltburn (2023): a satirical, sexual and classist thriller | un thriller satírico, sexual y clasista

From the very beginning, a strange sexual tension is noticed around the two young people and Oliver's admiration for Felix - who tells the story - is confused with love, desire, admiration, hatred, envy, compassion and other feelings that he will experience specially when he's invited to share the summer with Felix's family in their enormous castle. The rich English, or rather the British aristocracy, are portrayed in a satirical way in this film that makes them look like vain, empty, superficial, deranged and somewhat stupid beings, with the exception of the charming Felix. All that atmosphere of opulence, the promising young man, the prestigious university and his commoner companion, inevitably evoke The Talented Mr. Ripley, the hot, sensual and sexual summer makes one think of Call Me By Yout Name and the second half of the film, or rather its last half hour reminded me a little of Parasite. However, despite these connections and references, the story does not end up coming together or making an impact. The direction is wonderful, the photography is perfect, the production design is brilliant, but ironically this Oscar-winning screenwriter did not get an equally good script here. It's a daring, risky script, less transgressive than some would think, but it lacks that extra bit of good stories and the film suffers from it.

12TH FAIL: Inspiration from the different world!

It reminds me that colonial slavery is still dominating our thought and the law-enforcing people and the govt employees are still maintaining themselves as the lords from the East Indian Company who ruled over India for around 200 years. However, the story begins with the passing of the 12th grade by the hero after failing several times but without copying while everyone gets passed with copying in their first attempts.

My opinion about Friends, the iconic series | Mi opinión sobre Friends, la icónica serie📺

Many series of this style achieve this goal, however, I think that none does it like Friends, since in my opinion this series, at least at the time, dealt with more realistic situations but with that touch of humor they made everything more enjoyable. There was also the fact that it was aimed at an audience of young people in their twenties who presented all those doubts and existential crises, perhaps the fact of seeing a representation of that but downplaying all those doubts, made life become a little more bearable, at least for a while.

Movie | Guerra Mundial Z • World War Z 🎬

Me gustó porque no se centraron en una cura o una vacuna para evitar el contagio como en otras películas de zombies que ya he visto, me pareció muy emocionante de principio a fin e inquietante había zombies por todos lados, y la actuación de Brad Pitt como siempre excelente, si no la han visto corran a verla en la plataforma de Netflix, se que muchos aman este tipo de tramas, esta muy buena.

Korean School of The Dead Episode 1

If there is something about zombies is that their stories are very generic in their plot bases but for those who are fans of them, everything that has zombies is better, if your breakfast cereal comes with zombies it will taste better, if your girlfriend breaks up with you in the middle of a zombie apocalypse you will feel better my friend, if you go to school and your classmates, teachers become zombies then celebration my boy because there is no homework for the house.

Review Saltburm/ Really intense and not suitable for everyone

This film is basically a psychological thriller where at the beginning we see Oliver conversing, what we do not know is with whom, but he talks about how he loved Felix and from there we can observe how as he goes deeper into the narration of the events, that more than love was a strong obsession to the point of following him, atoning him, lying, manipulating and killing.

The return of the love thief "Berlin"🥷🏻🤵🏻/El regreso del ladrón del amor "Berlín"🥷🏻🤵🏻

Well, that there are many things or details in something does not mean that it is bad, or in its entirety, but the sincerity before everything and is something that characterizes me, but if I can contribute several points in favor of the series and is that it gives us a nice story between Berlin, his band and the character of Camille, it is interesting as the love of a sociopath, the fact of crime and social relations are interposed in something so important for this type of people, and it is something that I must admit that motivates you to continue to watch the series. On the other hand the series gives a twist to what we see in the paper house, in this scenario there are very serious mistakes that practically there are miracles and not facts taken out of the sleeve of the professor, eye does not remove the fact that they always get away with theirs but at least here the characters feel the consequences of their actions. On the other hand the references to the professor seemed to me excellent even poetic, although not much emphasis is made in the life of Berlin and brother, that simple gesture of mentioning it makes both appreciates it and both values his great intelligence. They also give us a mini satire to the relationship between French and Spanish, although we are in the 21st century with all the updates of thought, they make whisper to the rivalry between these two nationalities fight or rival each other, even of who was the best stealing.

Dream Scenario - Movie Review

I will be very simple about the script and I want to clarify that this is due to restrain myself from making spoilers of the film; I like that this situation of getting fame in a very strange way happens to a man in his 50's, someone is repressed dreams and underestimated, this is perfect for the development of this story and that is one of the positive points of the film; just this is a story about fame, getting it in a magical way, dealing, suffering and living with that unthinkable factor which will change however the family of one or several people, is the main theme told from the point of view of a man who would like to get all the recognition he believes he deserves.

MOVIE REVIEW: “Maestro” (2023)

Simply put, this is the context of the movie. However, what should be a priority for the script (the maestro's relationship with his job) ends up being put almost completely aside, and the plot relies on a completely exaggerated exposition of his personal life (more precisely in the extramarital relationships he had with his male lovers). This exchange of places also leaves room for Felicia herself to gain more prominence in the plot, because while Leonard conducts the orchestras, she is the one who ends up acting as a soloist throughout almost the entire movie.

Leave the World Behind | Review

They managed to recreate a great production with each of the special effects and each of the scenes of the same, which allows it to be very attractive and not boring at all, since it always does not present something new and when you realize you have seen many places and each one has a very different situation before that great situation, in addition the diverse moments of terror that are there present in the film and everything is to play with that fear and thought of the human being, since it is the main reason of the same one, emphasizing that moment of the people that are not the owners of the house, in addition the deer, being a very dangerous animal, but that at the same time they give much fear, for that reason it is a film where you will take many surprises and they will be able to be very desperate.

Rebel Moon - Part One (REVIEW)

The graphics are very well done, with small details that we will have to wait for official answers to know if they are really made on purpose or are effects resulting from the VFX. That middle ground between what references to Star Wars with the level of fantastic plot with which they made the films of the '90s is what makes us not see the film so long, this, due to its two-hour length.
