Doblemente Embarazada (2019)
Haven't been able to finish it after 1 month
Fiest of all if you want to watch a movie with all the mainstream Mexican movies clichés, this is it. It has , love triangle, Zóe songs, Mexico City , some random handsome dude and the average one.
The movie is so painful to watch because the premise is so stupid, the writing is terrible, and the color palette is on your face all the time, like someone wanted to do a "The Grand Budapest Hotel" but badly executed.
The acting was so bad, I've seen better acting on those low budget narco movies than this one. There was a scene in which the pet of a dude died, and the dude was sad a crying, but was so bad acting, like fake and forced, but that is only an example.
I wanted to finish it, but it's imposible , is cringe inducing and waste of time.
Generation Um... (2012)
Slow paced but interesting
Watched this on Amazon Prime , thought that would be action movie or something, I think some of the negative reviews are because people generated false expectations.
Even though it was more about drama, I like this kind of movies , in which people do stuff that feel something I would do in real life , on some scenes though that could be me . The story was interesting and engaging.
If you like those kind of slow paced , films that feel like something you could record on random days of your life , see them later and feel good about the memories on it.
Amar te duele (2002)
Enjoyed when I was teen, but now it's lame
I have to say that when I was 15 I enjoyed a lot , it had the music I used to listen to (Zoé, Natalia Lafourcade, etc..) , I liked the love story , and felt connected, it was amazing for me.
However, after some time, and after re-watched, some things are lame. the pos-editing is trash ( that fast forward - slow motion , effect is abused ) , the audio mixing it's pure trash, sometimes the music was very loud, some sounds didn't mix with the rest of the scene. Acting was bad, a lot of scenes feels fake, with lack of sentiment or emotions. The background of the story is on one premise burned as hell, "the poor guy that fall in love with a wealthy one".
At the end I just had nostalgia for the film , remember me when I was in high school , and that enjoyed.
Guadalupe Reyes (2019)
Quite predictable
You can guess the scenes one after another without knowing anything about the movie , full of cliches. Who writes this thing , a 13 years old ?
Mirreyes contra Godínez (2019)
Another type of movie that all mexicans like
Well , how many movies of this type are released each year on mexican cinemas?, like 1 million. It a appear that mexicans love this movies.
This movie is by no means original , or unpredictable , it does not have good acting.
Is the cliché movie with rich guys, vs some more middle class or poor guys, hate each other , and ended up working together and in relationship for some reason.
We have many of this movies , and I think is a cultural thing, since 50% of mexicans are poor, they dream to meet that rich person who would solve they problems and be a prince or pretty woman , but life does not work that way, and is very easy to work on that premise , this is why the most boring movies exploit that , and Mirreyes vs Godines is not the exception.
I think thay startted with a fresh idea and at the end they do the same as all mexican rom-coms does.
Nosotros los Nobles (2013)
Just like any other Mexican movie
Just that , this movie is just another cliched Mexican movie , the poor the rich , a crazy and no logical plot. Someone is getting married but at the end , something goes wrong , end with the poor guy . I'm mean , this shouldn't be an spoiler , because almost all Mexican movies are like that.
Don't get me wrong , is not a bad movie , just average.
