Promedio rojo (2003)
A really bad movie
I am sorry but this is on the top 5 list of the worst movies ever. A complete apology to bad taste, lack of redeeming values, or to any values (including entertainment values for that matter). The acting is over the top, the references to many movies, (meet Joe Black, High Times in Richmond High, Some Kind of wonderful) and to styles and directors (Alex de la Iglesia, Kevin Smith) are somehow pathetic. I have seen some really good chilean movies in the last decade but this one is that kind of movie that will leave you mad for having wasted almost two hours of your life for watching it. Avoid it at all costs. It is that bad.
Hannibal (2001)
READ THE BOOK FIRST!!!!!!
Why criticize the movie if it is really an adaptation of the book? It is impossible to include in a 2 hour movie all the little insights a book can give such as Leccter's sister, or Margoth or Ordelia. As for all the "infamous" or "slasher movie" scenes people are complaining so much..well...they come straight out of the book, which, in turn, was definitely not as good as "Silence of the Lambs". Anybody who read the book knew that the movie had to be gory becasue the book contains intenmsely gory moments. The movie, directors and actors should be judged based on whether it accomplished to conveythe feelings the writer tried to convey in his book...and I think it did...even with the final 10 minutes, which, in the book were a lot less rewarding.
