Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

ThiefHott Too much of everything

Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

NICO Caballos Salvajes is about an older looking man who steals a large sum of money from the bank and then goes on the run with a bank worker who decides to help him out. Although the relationship between both men was very hostile right from the start, throughout their trip to the south of Argentina both men begin to talk through their problems and grow close. During the trip the men realize that they are involved in something bigger than just a bank robbery and they are faced with different circumstances which they resolve together. The movie includes serious circumstances surrounding the main characters, but is also filled with comedy in the way in which they handle their business and in the dialogue. Towards the end of the movie we are faced with the revealing of some facts and the mood of the movie switches to a much more tender and loving one. Overall the movie is very comical and exciting, and the acting very much entertaining.

Carman Kubanda When you first start watching Caballos Salvajes it is a little bit confusing; by this I mean that the movie starts out with a "sort-of" bank robbery in which you are not quite certain of what exactly is taking place, in fact you don't fully understand (or at least I didn't) until 1/3 of the way through the movie. I think that the director did this on purpose because it is evident that even the characters don't know what's happening for quite some time; that was done to reinforce the continuity of the film. Since this movie is from 1995 the image quality and clarity isn't quite what most are used to and sometimes the subtitles are misspelt but if you can look past that it is actually a very well done movie.The plot, as I said before is uncertain in the beginning, but by the last half of the movie we see that it has turned into the easily discernible genre of a "road movie." For example: José (Hector Alterio) at the beginning of the movie is cynical and even suicidal but towards the end he is happy and says he is actually living. The movie also takes on the message of corruption, because José just wanted the money the bank had stolen from him but through chance him and Pedro take 500,000 dollars of money that was probably from illegal operations like drug smuggling. Pedro & José are not corrupt and they give the money back, but they give it back to the people. They in turn, are considered heroes by the public (modern day Robin Hoods as noted by someone else) in fact almost everywhere they go they are helped out by the people they meet. This movie brings to light corruption in the banking industry of Buenos Aires and classically shows that good prevails, even though José is killed in the end, he is at least happy.

Alfia Wallace Corruption exists on many levels. While Argentine cinema is certainly full of films about exposing institutional corruption, what makes Caballos Selvajes so moving is its focus on the personal choices of individuals in contributing to or avoiding corruption. The decision a young banker instinctively makes when confronting a life, death and money situation sets him on a path which irrevocably veers him away from becoming like his corrupt boss at the bank. Likewise that of an ambitious young journalist contrasts him sharply with his calculating and corrupt boss at the network.Protecting human life, human expression, human freedom, and the truth is a theme which runs through this film. The consequences of making choices based on these priorities are often not easy, and that is reflected in the outcomes for these characters. The wild horses of this film are a metaphor for human freedom, and what must be done to insure their freedom, an example of hard but worthwhile sacrifice.

isaias adames This movie is fantastic. There are unexpected amazing things which happen at the start of the movie that make up for rest of it and make you feel like you don't need to see further.It is the story of Jose, a very decent man, not a thief at all, who goes to a bank to ask for $13,314 he was stolen by this bank for 18 years or he shoots himself.It is also the story of Pedro, the bank clerk who empties all the money in the Bank's Vice-President desk into Jose's bag. After this he pretends to be taken hostage by Jose to help him escape. Once on the run, they realize they've taken 500,000 dollars which belong to the mob. Jose only wants the the $13,314 he is owed.Joined by a young girl they meet on the way, The Indomables(the untamed), as they are called, begin an intense voyage of friendship, adventure and solidarity from lots of people they meet along the way.Their goal: Getting from Buenos Aires to a small border town with Brazil, where Jose has unfinished business.
