Criminali Come Noi

An entertaining dark comedy, very well paced, it never "drops", never gets slow, never gets boring. Great cast, great acting, very good script (the foreign watcher probably won't notice, but every dialogue is made in a "country/rural" jargon, which adds a lot in terms of authenticity and credibility).

My only critic is regarding the lack of explanation of the 2001 crisis (a simple, small explanation would've been enough) because that reduces the understanding of the foreign audience about the severity of the situation faced by the protagonists. But overall, a good film. Totally recommended.

For a film based on historical facts and not on a big budget, it's very well done. The cast is incredible and they were lucky enough to have the best actors in Argentina. The VFX, music, cinematography and plot are very well done.

My tens and I hope it wins Best Foreign Film at the Oscars 2020.

La Odisea de los Giles is based on the novel "La Noche de la Usina" written by Eduardo Sacheri. The same writer who wrote the novel that inspired to make the Oscar winning film "The Secret in their Eyes".

I loved so much the book and I thought the movie would be a gem. But not. I understand that some things from the book are not possible to transport to the language of cinema. Still, there were some details of the book that were missing and could have made the movie a little bit more better, more with surprising moments.

I had the feeling that Ricardo Darín played as Darín. Boring. I couldn't believe his character of an ex fultball player (Perlassi). On the book I could feel so much the spirit of Perlassi. I could imagine what he was wearing, what he was thinking, even if it was not written on the book.

I honestly believe that Leonardo Sbaraglia could have been a better cast for the role.

If you read the book don't expect so much. If you didn't read the book, then is a nice film for a Sunday afternoon. Thanks.

Based on the 2001 crisis, the movie present us a group of very different people with one objective in common: revengeance, not revenge: revengeance against the manager of a bank who stole their savings. The film is a travel with those tender characters and their suffering and desire of revengeance. 9/10

A small village gets robbed of it's well earned money by a corrupt bank manager and the village people swear revenge.

Great underdog story of standing up against the bully. Funny as well. Simply a charming tale of locals, who bond together during a financial crisis. Ingenuous plot. Wonderful acting performances. Simply good fun to watch. 7.5 stars.
