Reviews
Interesteg What makes it different from others?
ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
tessav87 I must admit that my reason for seeing this film was none other than hottie Jaime Camil. I didn't even have a clue as to what the plot was, but nonetheless I was determined to watch it. Well, I was in for a really good treat because this movie completely blew me away. Although I am Mexican, I am saddened to say that I am not a big fan of Mexican movies. I am a proud Mexican, but for some reason these movies don't attract me. This movie was a good slap in the face for me because I realized that perhaps Mexican movies CAN be good. I was actually shocked at the very interesting plot and the performance by all the actors, including Camil, of course. Over all this movie definitely deserves 2 thumbs up for it is entertaining and funny.
chimbonbori Think about this; if great movies this days are global, simple, and make you feel different. No wonder why this one won in his natal Mejico best film this year! It's been in just 3 us film festivals and already won the San Antono film festival.This is a little something you have to see. No violence, no sex, just a simple story that gets you out of the theater for the second time thinking how they did all this with so little. My bet... a good heart & big pair of balls.I'm still thinking; How the hell this guys got the U2 rights of their images, and music in such a small film? The actors; "Tony" (Jaime Camil) is not only hilarious but deep. And the other dude "Claudio" (Eduardo Arroyuelo) if you think that less in better, you got to see an actor that in his first movie in a leading role already understands what acting in 2006 is all about... ..."simplicity" something that took people like Juliette Binoche, Tony Leung Ka Fai or great masters like Michael Caine years to learn.Believe me you are going to hear a lot about this one.
COCOLO KO Awful, horrible, stupid movie. The main question here is why this guys got up from their beds and got into making a film that is actually made for retarded people. With all respect to the retarded, who cares about this rich superficial and mediocre people, why would anybody will enjoy seeing this? People who support this movies are completely out of touch with their brains and probably their hearts. I would say to anybody who is thinking of watching this film. Don't! this film is made by stupid rich people who in no way represent this country. Welthy individuals who tough it was a cool idea to make a film about the way rich people spent their stupid life. Another good reason for the revolution.
David Moreno Why? That's just the question, why somebody gave this people the money to shoot this "film"? Why U2 let them use their music? Why someone actually believes that Jaime Camil could be an actor? Why does this piece of **** exists??... There is a wave in Mexican cinema. They are shooting easy going plots to raise money. But they have two problems: one, the stories are simply awful, and therefore they are wasting some great stories about our country, plots that are waiting to be told...Siete Días is probably one of the worse movies of all time...and nobody seems to notice that... Why? i have no idea...i just want to go to a movie theatre in my country and watch good stories, about our cities, our towns, our people. There are exceptions, of course, but in general, we are wasting the opportunity to tell the great story of actual Mexico... What a Shame...Shame on Fernando Kalife, Shame on the Producers...
