Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen
ScoobyMint Disappointment for a huge fan!
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
hiteshnimsarkar I am actually a fan of Escobar movies/series/documentary. Any form of AV and I'll watch it. That is way I decided to waste my time on this movie.If you have seen Narcos series, then this movie is no match. In case you see this movie before Narcos, you are going to regret watching this movie.Ok so this movie is ok ok. Why was it shot in English language? Narcos has shown it in better way.Bottom Line: Avoid watching this movie.
milenaivanova The movie is well balanced, nicely written and directed and Penélope and Javier Bardem give as always wonderful performance. The biggest downside is that it´s in English - it definitely should have been in Spanish. Listening to the heavy accents of the actors was very tiring and Javier mumbles all the time and you can hardly understand what he´s saying. It would have been a great movie if they all spoke Spanish. There were also two horrible violent scenes (involving a dog and a horse) that were too much. The subject of the movie is known to death and yet again, it was well measured and not boring to watch.
petrplavec Excellent film for adults with experienced and good filmmaking. Compared to the serial Narcos, which is one of the highlights of the genre with an excellent formal aspect, Loving Pablo maybe 10 % loses. Another of his weaknesses is a short two-hour footage that attempts to cover whole life of Pablo Escobar. Fernando León de Aranoa, however, is a very skilled director and imaginative writer, and Javier Barde is a better actor than Wagner Moura in Narcos. Whoever watched all the parts of the series, of course loses a moment of surprise. However, when I look at the pictures that were going to go to cinemas this year, when there are dozens of teen films with recycled scenarios on one such adult film, the final score is clear. Think about it. 85%
fwdconcept From serie to film is a very disappointing result. It is somekind of romantic family film. The real crualties are not in the movie. For me it was a waste of money by telling the Escobar story this way...
