colarusso-1 Unbelievable that this movie has a 7.1 mark. Too bad. Actors with primary errors, nonexistent direction, unbelievable elongated script. I think it was the worst movie I've seen in years. I would say that to be bad still has to improve a lot. The same thing is the actors. All very bad. Besides that none has any kind of physical attraction. I really wanted a bomb to fall and kill all the characters. Do not waste your time.
Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a man meeting another man in the gym, and they befriend each other. It actually is not a chance meeting, but a carefully planned meeting in order to break up the new relationship of his ex-girlfriend.I have to say that the subplot of trying to destroy the ex-girlfriend's relationship is not very obvious to me. All I see is a gay man who seduces a straight man, and to various degrees of success at different time points. The pace is slow and there are many stationary shots which prolongs the film unnecessarily. I can't say I liked the film too much, but I did find it cute that the gay guy has to test the water and come up with different excuses to make a move on the straight guy.
ernesto66 If I didn't know better I'd have guessed that the writer and director of "Plan B" were two different people, neither of them very experienced or talented, totally working at odds. The film seems like a collaboration between filmmakers who had never made movies before, or even seen better ones."Plan B" is too long by half, especially for as little story as there is to tell. Scenes drag on forever, broken up by shots of buildings and rumbling ambient sounds that belong in a more suspenseful film. There is a lot of will-he-or-won't-he going on, lots of staring and deep thinking, but none of it out in the audience. Which isn't to say that this little story is boring, only badly told. In the right hands, two men discovering that trying to define yourself is only fooling yourself could be completely fascinating.The film's biggest problem is the distance from each of its characters - not only emotionally but literally, in front of the camera. There are so few closeups it becomes difficult to follow what any of these people are thinking, and the script's refusal to put any of their struggles into words only hurts the process. Lucas Ferraro breaks through once, with a silent scene where Pablo realizes what has happened and what it means to him. Manuel Vignau's Bruno gets no such scene, so it's almost impossible to register where his plotting ends and his supposed love begins. Other characters, their relationships unclear, wander through adding almost nothing to what's going on.So "Plan B" is a disappointment mainly because of the squandered opportunity it represents. With dialog that developed its ideas and a director who better exploited not only its comic but tragic aspects, the brilliant hook of the script could have resulted in another minor classic like "Parting Glances." Instead, it is just one more foreign import with a great-looking trailer: lingering glances, a few butt shots, and a hope that the gay guys who've rented it will be too busy reading the subtitles to realize how thin the story and emotions actually are.C+
Wild Wander maybe it's because it reminds me the hard time I've had in my twenties to figure out how I could tell a guy I loved him but I love this movie which is quite simple in terms of plot and acting. It's merely due to the two actors of course that let us think they discover the feelings for each others as well as their potential acting on the screen. Both of them don't seem to be famous in Argentina but they would deserve to go further in their acting career.Great movie, photo is undoubtedly gorgeous (I loved the colors of the buildings - quite impressionist view of the city) and I definitely recommend it to people for its delicate and simple way to show the carefulness we may use sometimes before going further into a relationship and also the ambiguity straight men relationship may have regarding the way they express their feelings to each other.
