inception | 2010


Resultat d'imatges

For four years I had been trying to watch that film and finally I've done it. Inception presents a new way of sci-fi or fantastic cinema. It has an amazing and complex story behind that the spectator understands and nowadays the general public that goes to the cinema, the popular cinematic culture wants to be entertained for a while and not thinking how this awesome plot can be understood or not. Christopher Nolan did that with that film and this is the reason of it's success. 

Inception as the word says is based on the origins of everything, of us. Mr.Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) knows how to enter to the dreams and basically how to move in those dream, we could tell he is an expert on dreams more that he lives in reality. One day, he and his fellow colleague are offered the task of their life. They need to do an inception on somebody else's mind and if they succeed Cobb, that has been drawn away from his family for the most part of his life, will be free of charges - he was accused of a murder - and will be able to go home. 

This task includes six people that are going to have to go under three dreams in order to accomplish the task. This part is the most interesting one because of the six people two are the experts on dreaming (Cobb and his fellow, Arthur), one girl is an architect (to build the dreams - as if they were labyrinths), another is a forger and the last one is a merchant of sedatives. Together they are going to experience, with the audience, an awesome adventure that keeps you on the edge of your seat and that makes you feel as if you were on a maze .

So this is a great movie to watch and the more times you watch it the more things you discover. Is probably one of those films who is a bit long, two hours and fifteen minutes but that seems very short and Nolan, the director, plays with the time in the movie as well so something that seems to be very fast in the movie becomes very slow - [spoiler] that ban falling into the river - and it plays with the viewer. 
As for the cast, I think this film counted with amazing actors such as Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page, Michael Cane, Tom Hardy or Marion Cotillard among others that did a good job. The music by Hans Zimmer is quite amusing, it really puts you on the middle of the film as if you were one more character. I've talked about the screenplay before but I think this is a very good one, very smart and complex but at the same time simple. So I would recommend anybody to see that movie, there aren't "buts" or anything, really enjoyable for everybody which converts this movie to one of the best movies of the last years.

guardians of the galaxy | 2014

The James Gunn film is set in a galaxy where the heroes haven't got the superhero profile. Peter Quill is a bounty hunt er that was taken away from his planet, the Earth, when he was just a boy. From his planet he only has a walkman with a cassette that has multiple songs.  It is noteworthy to say that the nostalgic songs and the reference to the movie Footloose (1984) where Kevin Bacon becomes a hero changing a situation by dancing makes this film different.  As said at the beginning, the characters have all a different profile that you wouldn't identify with a hero. They are selfish, they only look for themselves... When Peter steals something capable of destroying the galaxy from Ronan - the tyrant of the film  - Gamora (Zoe Saldana) has the duty to bring it back to Ronan, but she's planning her betrayal. Besides that, the Groot and Rocket want to capture Peter to earn money. This persecution finishes when they all go to jail and have to ally in order to get ...

girls | 2012 -

Lena Dunham's tv series Girls is widely known and has been critically acclaimed. It talks about girls, as the title says, but n ot in a typical way - like many tv series or movies that are just a collection of clichés. Showing part of her real life story, Dunham writes among with other people in some chapters about the life of four girls who have finished college, or are just going to, and that try to find their places in the world.  The protagonist, Hannah (Lena Dunham),  is a writer who either the "leader" of the group and the tv series. The good thing about this series is that in every single chapter there's time to laugh and be identified with the situations the girls live. You don't need to be their age to be identified, parents can see their daughters and sons here... and everybody can have fun while watching it because it is just a kind of an "animated with real people" book written by Hannah/Dunham that portrays some of the most common ...

begin again | 2014

If you like music, you'll like this film because it is a story about love for music, there's also time for other love, yes, but the main purpose of the film is showing the love people have for music and how this thing can help you overcome things and change your live. I've heard some critics say that this movie "has a soundtrack for every love story" and "a movie for those who live life as if it was a playlist" and I also would define it like this. If you don't like music, or it is not one of your most loved interests, this film makes you appreciate it. The places where the music is made captivate the viewer and the songs make you spend some good time watching the movie.  As for the story itself, the base, I wouldn't define it as groundbreaking story because if it wasn't for the music component, it could have been entertaining - because it is not a film about how a music star is born- but it wouldn't have been that good. As said...
