Alicia I love this movie so much
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Supelice Dreadfully Boring
Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
joenajas I am sorry but this is on the top 5 list of the worst movies ever. A complete apology to bad taste, lack of redeeming values, or to any values (including entertainment values for that matter). The acting is over the top, the references to many movies, (meet Joe Black, High Times in Richmond High, Some Kind of wonderful) and to styles and directors (Alex de la Iglesia, Kevin Smith) are somehow pathetic. I have seen some really good chilean movies in the last decade but this one is that kind of movie that will leave you mad for having wasted almost two hours of your life for watching it. Avoid it at all costs. It is that bad.
bustosricky First of all, I bet that this person doesn't even get Chilean Humor. And if you ever went to a private school in Chile, you would know that that is how everything is.Just because you have some money over there, you're automatically extremely right-winged I guess.This movie shows stories of people and families living in that social status and that is the reality. If something were changed in the movie, it wouldn't be genuine.It is a great movie and if you have the chance to watch it, I suggest you do. If you want to know a little more about Chilean culture, a little history about its economic background or simply just to check out another style of humor (which I think is better than the plain, boring humor that there is in the US). Its not a waste of time. Good luck on finding the subs. lol
ajoderfilmes Chileans should be embarrassed that their country is polluting the environment with toxic waste like this. The director obviously thinks of himself as very "modern" and "irreverential", but the truth is, this film is the most conservative, right-wing and predictable trash I've seen in a Latin American film. He must be a relative of Pinochet or something. As for the comedy, let me just say that it makes the Police Academy movies look like the complete works of Billy Wilder. Sorry, guys, it's just not funny. If you feel like watching what some loser director did as an excuse for a movie so he can pick up girls, lose his virginity and stop masturbating after losing his hair, then this one is for you. The rest of us should just avoid it like the plague.
Havox Being a little freak, introspective, somewhat fat and a huge fan of Star Wars and comics might render you unattractive for the vast majority of the popular girls in your college.Roberto Rodriguez is the perfect prototype of a fat freaky looser, and he can live with it, until a new female student arrives into his class. She's an adorable Spanish brunette who also likes comics books, and Roberto falls for her instantaneously.The problem is that she's quickly drained towards Fele, an older student who is the perfect handsome heart breaker, forcing Roberto to attempt desperately and pathetically to get her to notice him.I think this movie might be a little autobiographic for Nicolas Lopez, Director, Script Writer and co-producer of Promedio Rojo. And might as well have many similarities with the lives of a lot of young men who hadn't it easy during high school, being unnoticed or unattractive to girls, hanging out with freaky friends, having little or no social life and having to survive the cruelty and rudeness of popular students.Altought the film has some dramatic ingredients, it's by no means a melodrama. I think this is plain comedy, but a rather sarcastic one. You might find yourself laughing at things that you know that are full of bad taste or even plain gross... and those situations wouldn't be funny if presented in another context, but in this movie it works, and it works well.There are some petty side conflicts which really aren't important nor funny, but all in all the movie is entertaining, funny and has enjoyable characters.And I declare myself absolutely in love for Cristina, the Spanish student.
