Movie reviews. All about the best films of many directors, as well as my vision and criticism of the actors' performances.
It seems to me that Spanish cinema is more democratic, more adjusted to the reality of the acting virtues. Comparing it to Hollywood, I mean. Because in yankeeland if you are handsome you can learn to act on the fly, meanwhile you dazzle the viewer from the physical to …
As time goes by, the more we will miss an acting genius like Daniel Day-Lewis. It would be a matter of the intensity with which he assumed each role, the point is that he probably suffered from that wear and tear that sometimes attacks those who give everything in any facet...
Let's forget about the last Robert de Niro to evoke that other great actor who at some point was. It may sound harsh, but it is true, one of the most charismatic types of celluloid has long passed with more pain than glory for films without that point of classic cinema...
We all thought that that kid Thelma and Louise had come to the movies for supporting roles where they show off their palm and wink their eyes (one after the other). But the twenty-year-old persisted in his acting vocation (which he had already been developing long before Thelma and Louise) and, despite the fact that his ...
From his golden retirement at the foot of the Lakers track, Jack Nicholson still shows off the extraordinary vitality that he always conferred on his characters. Interpretations that appear in the already distant and psychedelic 70s until well into the XNUMXst century. A run unparalleled in today's stardom...
When it comes to cataloging Matt Damon we can find problems. It's not easy to label a guy like him, who could pass for your childhood friend who you would never imagine playing a movie hero, much less a Brad Pitt-type heartthrob. And yet, he is…
There are perfect actors for different genres. Luis Tosar and suspense in its broadest sense is one of the happiest encounters in Spanish cinematography. And this Galician actor can embody evil in any of his representations; or on the opposite side,…
It's difficult to think of Keanu Reeves and quickly place him into a very specific stereotype of an actor. Whether due to his own decisions, driven by work demands or also, of course, by interpretive evolution, good old Keanu has always been reinventing himself at a forced pace. Of that boy whose photo was on the covers...
Something strange happens to me with Mario Casas. On the one hand, he seems like a good actor to me, but on the other hand, the same character always appears to me, regardless of the role he plays. It must be something from his marked presence or his rather low tone of voice, like an effort to whisper his...
There is something like serene melancholy in Natalie Portman's physiognomy. Whether something studied or innate, it is a perfect virtue or resource to make the character transition from latencies to explosions with wonderful ease. Everything is balance in a perfect glass sculpture until…
Following in the footsteps of Clint Eastwood, actor George Clooney is increasingly devoting himself to directing tasks. And based on successful performances and some glorious advertising cameos, really, George?, one ends up seeking new horizons on the other side of the cameras. And so …
It's hard to remember the young Morgan Freeman in front of the screen. Because the actor in essence has always been the same. An adult type of hieratic gesture that, however, is capable of transmitting a multitude of emotions. Without a doubt, we are faced with an innate gift that, from our perspective...
