Vicky Cristina Barcelona

I love Woody Allen, but I was disappointed with Cassandra's Dream, so I'm positively surprised with this new movie. A fun comedy. The conversations are fresh and some of the "improvisations" of Bardem and Penelope (and specially the Spanish swearwords) are quite realistic, even in the complicated relationship of the participants! This is a cool movie.

My score: 8 (out of 10)

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead

Fantastic movie. It is a good mix between thriller and Greek drama. Sometimes you can feel that it is not the first time that you have seen the movie, but the story, the dialogs and the performance of the actors are really good. It seems classic cinema but with modern details. I recommend it.

My score: 9 (out of 10)

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

It is pure adventure, pure action, pure classic movie, pure popcorn aroma... pure Indy. Mr Lucas and Mr Spielberg have not abused digital effects and this film made me feel like a children again, but it is strange to see Indy in a different period of the thirties, because this time Indy is living in the fifties and this time the evil guys are the red army and not the nazi one, nevertheless you can enjoy a nice part of the taste of the other old three movies. I only did not like some important details of the story that I am not going to reveal here, and to be honest the movie is not as good as I was expecting... but I enjoyed it. Great ;)

My score: 7 (out of 10)

The Savages

A good film. Brilliant performance of Linney and Hoffman (as usual). Sometimes the stories with sad ingredients can give you good feelings... and this is the case.

My score: 8 (out of 10)

Die Fälscher (The Counterfeiters)

Fantastic movie. It is a different review about the concentration camps of the old Germany and the fight of surviving versus principles. Really good.

My score: 9 (out of 10)

Death Defying Acts

A very interesting movie. Guy Pearce makes a very good role but Catherine is not very credible in this movie. The movie is not very historical, but it is not bad.

My score: 7 (out of 10)
