BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.
Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.
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.
sneaguv I know there will be viewers who will complain about unrealistic developments, with tons of situations when you think the plot and monsters will be revealed, only to see that another villain will intervene and stop it (and not only). Oh well, it's tough to go on 7 seasons without downsides, but the truth is that the scenario is solid and the cast is absolutely lovely with excellent actor skills. You'll fall in love with all of them, good and bad guys equally because they really know how to act.Theme is very interesting, because the evilest dark spot shadowing the 20th century that is nazism will haunt us forever. The courage of those kids is kind of unrealistic, but gives us all hope that humanity in us will prevail and we'll keep fighting, disregarding our own persons, against an unfairly threatening evil. Also remember that adolescents are idealistic and optimistic and careless and when you put all these in balance, you don't see their actions as nonsensical. I enjoyed it as probably plenty of other viewers.
anianoh This series contains all the topics common in cheap horror movies, but they are so predictable that turn out to be more laughable than scary. Nothing new that one hasn't seen before. You can stop watching an episode for 10 minutes, come back and guess what happened during that time. It adds some elements to the underlying story: the tenderness for the orphan little girl, the teenagers' love conflicts, the adults betrayals, etc. All this with an underlying atmosphere of a "progressive education environment" for spoiled rich kids. And, you've got to be cute to be in these series! Avoid it.
Erika Downing A few years ago while I was living in Spain, I went to see the movie "Perdiendo El Norte" that starred Yon Gonzalez and Blanca Suarez. The girl I went with mentioned how the two actors were on a TV show she absolutely loved about a school where weird things happened. Ever since then, I had a desire to watch this show. I finally got Netflix over the summer and I started to watch El Internado to help maintain my Spanish.This was not the show I had expected to watch, but wow, it blew me away. I thought it would be ghosts and monsters and things like that, but it was so much more. There are things that happen in the first episode of the first season that link to the final episode of the final season. It is an incredibly planned out show with such attention to detail. I mean, yes, sometimes I do find a few inconsistencies, but overall, just wow.On top of that, Yon Gonzales and Matiño Rivas are such great eye candy. I also really increased my knowledge of Spanish slang. It took me a while to get through because the episodes are over an hour long each, but when I had a long break from working, I just charged through the episodes, staying up until 4 AM watching because WOW. Just go watch. Even if you don't understand Spanish, go put on some English subtitles! It's a fun ride with some really unpredictable story lines.
Jane Jones Excellent, I just wish I could find it with English subtitles. My Spanish is limited and I'm sure I missed some of the subtleties. That said it is still excellently written, acted and directed. With a plot that twists and turns. Although based in a boarding school, the plot is suitable for adults. A good drama, thriller, mystery and romance. Whoever you think is a goodie at the beginning is probably a baddie and vice versa. One of the episodes is entitled "everyone has secrets" something so true and the writers are not frightened to kill off characters. The final episode had me in tears.
