Sarah Paulson and Kiera Allen (in her acting debut) provide us with great perfomances, a very special dynamic duo that for that alone is worth watching the movie. Both are the best of the film. The script, by Aneesh Chaganty (also the director) and Sev Ohanian, is good enough to get to know and develop the two characters, find out what the problem is and reach the climax. It may be a simple story, but it is still excellent. Finally, what every thriller needs, a good scoring, is achieved in this film thanks to the talented Torin Borrowdale. Without a doubt one of the high points of the film. It's a light and exciting ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

One world and two sides. Those who accept diversity and those who don't. Today it is quite approved to be different, but it was not always the case. What happened in 1977?

Well, that's what Bert & Bertie try to tell us in Troop Zero. A family drama set in Georgia about a quite diverse Girl Scout group. They will show us how to fight hate and persecution with love and perseverance.

To begin to value we must talk about the performance of Mckenna Grace (as Christmas Flint). It transmits us so much charisma and innocence that at all times of the film we hope it will work out well for her and her group of friends. No doubt an actress with a bright future.

Lucy Alibar's script is fantastic. Exposing a sensitive subject in a PG movie was no easy task, but she did it. Its beautiful. Besides, the cast in general is very good. Viola Davis and Allison Janney give the cast a plus.

The negative point may be the edition (with enough errors if you are looking for meticulousness).

Overall, an excellent and moving film with a very important message. Totally recommended. And if you're not convinced, David Bowie's music is played all the time. You do not need more!

Corruption is one of the most common crimes in the world and those who suffer the consequences usually feel helpless. In The Corrupted, Ron Scalpello brings us a story based on real events about a man who tries to return to a normal life after serving a sentence in prison, but encounters a tense and sham environment.

If you are looking for a movie to hang out, this one is highly recommended. The story is not very difficult to follow, there is a good dose of action and drama well distributed and something peculiar that is appreciated in this style of films: good performances.

Timothy Spall, as he has accustomed us, dazzles us with his work. He plays Clifford Cullen, the villain behind corruption. The way he transmits evil, cold blood, experience in the bad life, is brilliant.

Another one that is not far behind is Joe Claflin. His character, Sean McDonagh, lives mostly desperate and Joe displays it very well. We can feel his suffering for the anguish and that is a great point. Sam Claflin and Noel Clarke, in brackets, don't dazzle, but they're not bad either.

Now, as to how the story is told, it is where the work of director Ron Scalpello comes to fascinate. There are three points of view with different characters that come together in the middle of the movie and from there together flow with many comings and goings. But it doesn't get confusing, I repeat, it's an easy idea to follow. The raw violence (not see with children) and plot twists abound.

If we must find aspects that are not right, one of them would be the edition. Abrupt cuts do not do well in most cases and this is one of them. Another aspect is the script, a bit empty, nothing amazing and with some gaps.

Overall, it is a nice movie. You'll enjoy, but don't look for something new. The correct way to appreciate this film is, undoubtedly, in a relaxed way.
