Uma Batalha Após a Outra

Battle after another is a solid film with a lot of strong points. It's generally warm and even has a bit of light raunchiness at the start, yet it keeps you engaged. Leonardo DiCaprio's performance is outstanding-he plays an ordinary guy thrown into tough situations with incredible sincerity and conviction. Benicio Del Toro, though in a smaller role, adds charisma as well. The female characters, unfortunately, feel pretty shallow and lack depth.

The plot is simple but enjoyable, though there are minor logical gaps. The main downside is the antagonists: some feel too overpowered, while others seem weak, and the motives of many minor villains remain unclear. At times, their actions come off as clichéd, which slightly reduces the dramatic tension.

Overall, the film works really well-it's fresh, engaging, and visually impressive. It reminded me of Fargo, both the film and the series. If you like Leonardo DiCaprio or the Coen brothers, this movie is definitely worth watching.

Went to see the movie because of the cast, but the promise, the delivery, and the highly confusing message was disappointing. No coherence anything at all, ended up walking out before the end.

-The movie seems to glorify revolution but "not really" and for no apparent reasons.

Would not recommend.

Luckly, I haven't read a word about this movie before watching it. Came fresh and got what I knew I am going to get - a Paul Thomas Anderson's film, with all the elements that are tied to this director's creations. He is not my favorite director, and I'm pretty divided regarding his filmography.

One thing that I can say about Paul Thomas Anderson is that his movies stick. Makes me think and are almost always enjoyable. Well, not all of them. There are "Inherent Vice" that made me suffer and also "The Master" I didn't like. And yes, Paul Thomas Anderson's films are always long.

This one is also a long one and not necessarily needed to be that long, but it is one of those things I can live with, because this time his movie is absolutely great. It is not great like the movie critics say it is. It's not perfect and sometimes it feels too stuffed with allegories and subjects that Paul Thomas Anderson tried to get inside, but other then all of those...yeah...it's that good.

It is like America's political atmosphere started to use drugs, from both kinds. Downers and uppers. There are two main characters that are performed by Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean Penn and are representing each one of drugs types. One is pumped and violent and the other is a suspicious stoner, that is sometime very mellow and sometimes paranoic.

Other then that Paul Thomas Anderson talks about America, about treatment to foreigners and especially those who tries to blend in America. He speaks about the fact we all belong to places, culture and personal identity we get from our family and our close (and also not that close) environment.

Everything Paul Thomas Anderson does in this movie is fabulous. Camera work is sensational, the musical score is almost perfect and stressful, and the final car chase scene is one of the best thing I've seen in any movie lately. The best part, off course, will be the actors choices.

What more can we say about Leonardo DiCaprio and his performances? Nothing else. All was already been told. He is perfect. Give him another Oscar. Sean Penn is absolutely terrifying in one of his best performances of latest years. Benicio Del Toro maintained his acting vibe from 'The Phoenician Scheme' and young Chase Infiniti stole everyone's thunder.

This movie gets the jog done. It is interesting, well made and acted and especially very unique, though also very stuffed. I am so happy I managed to enjoy this one without caving into the hype machine around the web. Is stood by itself and made my experience just great and it is another one by PTA that I will remember as one of the better ones.

Yes , during the movie i did kinda get confused in wtf is going on. But the actors in this were top shelf epic. *applause* they made the movie. The script or how they showed this. I really dont know. Maybe thats what the movie did, made us think. But i do have to say, the ending was a great one.

Its worth watchin 8/10.

Props to writer / director Paul Thomas Anderson for blending "The Big Lebowski" & "Sicario" into the darkly humorous, quietly epic actioner "One Battle After Another". 16yrs after being part of a domestic terrorist group (with Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, & others) stoner Leonardo Di Caprio (so good again) lives off-grid with Chase Infiniti (his daughter by Taylor)... til the past comes for them via manic army Col Sean Penn (excellent). Cue reasonably twisty chase & shoot 'em up action, with characters like Benicio Del Toro (also great), white supremacist politicians, and plot holes aplenty (excusable as they keep Anderson's terrific pace flowing). Not flawless, but still thumping entertainment.
