Supelice Dreadfully Boring

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

khartoum-39722 A decent attempt at a positive "Gay" love story. There is symbolism everywhere in the movie--someone had gone to film school. The most important being a bridge--used in the sense of crossing over something dangerous to the other side. In the movie a bisexual architect (Bruno/Framcisco Celhay)becomes aware of his homosexual side and leaves his family for another man Fer/Emilio Edwards (the tour guide). You could do a dissertation on the symbolism in this movie...the architect in the straight family role has a son with thick bifocals...some how even the fruits of his heterosexual role were unsuitable and tainted. His wife looks like an unsympathetic character while the tourguide Fer is the epitome of charm--I liked him far better than the brooding architect Bruno. The plot is the architect Bruno must find a project for a wealthy builder to enhance the cultural history of Santiago Chile. He hires the tour guide (the gay love interest Fer) to explore the City (Santiago Chile) and hopefully get some ideas and inspiration. Eventually he decides on designing a bridge to mirror one that used to exist at the same time he finds out he needs to cross a bridge to where his true happiness will be (homosexual love). There are details about thegreatest project ever in the Spanish colonial era of a bridge that nothing remains of but the foundations.. it was washed away and nothing but the foundations remain. Similarly Bruno must build a bridge with old foundations for his new sexuality and love.In the final scene the Bruno is seen crossing a bridge presumably to go be with Fer. This is not explicitly stated so leaves the viewer dangling...The main flaw in the movie.. I have no doubt where he is going in such a happy mood. Anyway a lot of careful thought went into this a decent watch for the out door location stuff as well.There are male frontal nude/sex scenes so not recommended to watch with your mother.RECOMMEND

Robert The movie was paced very well. Started out soft, calm, with warm lighting and very little music. It progressed very naturally, and I enjoyed the ride.My biggest issue with this movie is the child actor. The kid was basically mumbling the entire time, and he delivered his lines flatly. Maybe that was the intention, but it was frustrating. However, Daniela Ramírez was excellent. Francisco and Emilio were great, and had a wonderful chemistry together.Overall this movie was decent. Not perfect, but not horrible. I didn't like the ending because I'm a hopeless romantic and wanted the two to get together, but I can appreciate it for its realness. Sometimes life doesn't work out the way you want.

derrickluciano Usually, an individual will find his sexuality black and white, but for some people like Bruno, it's "in the grayscale".Bruno, a successful married architect with one kid, is struggling internally and opted to separate temporarily from wife to stay at his grandpa's house, while doing design work (a monument building project) for his client. He meets Fer, his tour guide who showed him some building concept ideas around the city. Then, he starts to explore his hidden sexuality. Throughout the film, we become a voyeur and see his loneliness, confusion and his indecision, consequently affecting the people around him. A number of gay themed films have tackled sexual confusion/ambiguity. This one works quite well as a moderately-paced film, just allowing characters to develop. Music is minimal, you can hear only some ambient bar music. Natural acting among the main leads: we love Bruno's talking eyes and restrained acting and we celebrate Fer's openly gay persona. Most of the characters here are imperfect but understanding people we see everyday.It's the director's debut feature film, and award-winning at that. Highly recommended.I can sympathize with Bruno since he was brought up dreaming of only "romantic tales between a man and a woman." His bridge is a long one to cross. And when he gets there, we hope that it would be a more meaningful and happier place than where he is now.

billy_dana This film starts strong. It's beautifully filmed, the acting for the most part is very strong, the writing is clean and crisp - there is very little to complain about technically. I also really like the way the primary relationship in the story grows and develops. The two characters are very different, and those differences help fuel some outstanding moments of exchange between the two principal characters.Having said all that the film seems to peter out at the end! The lead character is in conflict with himself, but the way story just seems to sputter to an end is frustrating. No, not all stories have to end with a bow, no doubt - but this seems to just awkwardly terminate.I still highly recommend the story, and I look forward to this director's next effort - very much worth watching.
