The movie evaluator... directly from the theater seat
by Miguel Troyano 
Nice movie by Ken Loach. The story about a depressed English postman, his friends and an imaginary Eric Cantona as his particular psychologist, is touching. Well, you can feel that Cantona was one of the writers because the story praises him too much (he looked like a kind of semi-god of football) but I entered in the story and I liked it. A comedy, with some dramatic details.
A really fun movie by the great Guy Ritchie, very different from his last fantastic "RocknRolla", but cool. I loved to see a very yob and uncouth Sherlock Holmes that shows some interesting and dirty details that really appeared in the original stories by Conan Doyle. The relationship between Holmes and Watson has some interesting details, the environment of the XIX century is very well done... and it's really delicious to see that awesome Victorian London so fantastically recreated. Simply amazing! So it's a "classic" but different and full of action and comedy. I really enjoyed the film.
This is not the best film of the Cohens, but anyway it's a very interesting story, mixing comedy and drama, that pays tribute to themselves and have some autobiographical touches, because it shows a life of a Jewish family during the sixties. The story leaves some loose ends but the full story is great and the cast (full of almost unknown actors) made a really good work. It's an honest and very recommendable film.
This is a cool movie that let you enjoy lots of very well done 3D fx. Cameron took advantage of this technology to make a good show. The CGI characters for the Na'vi are great... It's the first time that I see so good and expressive gestures in faces made by computer. The only "fault" for this movie is that the story is quite simple and not new at all (I'm not talking about the brilliant new planet and its ecosystem and environment). I mean, really this is a mix between "Dances with Wolves", "Pocahontas" and "Star Trek" although very well filmed. So i felt a kind of "déjà-vu", but anyway, the movie is great.
I was waiting for a long to see this movie since I saw the original short film made by the same director Shane Acker in 2005, and although the film is not as good as I hoped, the result it's pretty interesting. It's a cool experiment about the "stitch-punk" that I really loved and you can feel that Tim Burton (who is the producer) is behind it. The technical animation is good, the story is slightly simple and a little bit prudish sometimes, but I enjoyed.
Without a doubt this is one of the best thrillers that I saw last year. The story is good, the tension is good, the performance is good... Really, except a little detail almost all the movie is very good.... Summarizing... it's a brilliant movie and a good example to show to some of the whining people of the Spanish cinema that having good ideas and creativity let you make good movies and compete without spending a lot of money!
This is a cool bet on the computer animation that the Spanish cinema business made. The result is funny and the graphical quality is absolutely impeccable. The animators made a brilliant work and you can feel that they hired the original writer of Shrek to make the script. This film is perfect to take your nephews (if you need these kind of excuses to see it ;)
