What a waste of my time!!!
How sad is this?
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
View MoreI didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
View MoreIf you relish at the act of forming pretentious psychoanalytic symbology of simplistic random, occasionally cartoonish collections of "edgy" stories whose leading characters all meet some form of gratuitously violent and disturbing demise, this is the film for you. While there is something that tries to pass as dark/black humour in there at all the usual cues, it just wasn't funny. Personally, I found it all quite predictable, boring and a little sad. The sadness came about as a result of the total pointlessness of the film. However, based on all the exaggerated glowing reviews, I think that sort of cynical, snobby, postmodern, existential, angsty "edginess" is exactly the sort of thing that this film was aiming for.

View More"Wild Tales" (Relatos Salvajes in the original) is by far, one of my favorite movies. The six combined stories that compose this amazing cinematic experience - "Pasternak" (Pasternak), "The Rats" (Las Ratas), "The Strongest" (El más Fuerte), "Little Bomb" (Bombita), "The Proposal" (La Propuesta) and "Till Death Do Us Apart" (Hasta que la Muerte nos separe) - , bring to life our deepest desires and craziest reactions when faced with typical everyday life situations. It also makes us wonder how the little acts and decisions can easily make things fall apart in a matter of seconds. Although all the short stories were written by the same person (Damián Szifron), they were directed and produced by different people, which gives this movie a particularity not commonly found in the movie industry. In my opinion, the greatest thing about this movie is that is a roller coaster of emotions. We are invited to immerse the stories and to live together with the characters what they are experiencing. And although, the stories have different themes - drama, comedy, etc. - the one thing that connect all of them, without exception, is the vendetta. The next parts may contain spoilers, so read it with care. The revenge is shown to us in many different ways. We see it as in an old and maturated remorse and hate towards others (as it is displayed in the Pasternak's story) and we can also find some of it in The Rats, but the feeling of punishing the man that was responsible for the protagonist death didn't come from the girl, but for her coworker in the restaurant.On the other stories (The Strongest, Little Bomb and Till Death Do Us Apart), we see it as a mad driven feeling, but the difference is that something happened at that moment. Is a fresh action that triggered that feeling. Actually, even in the 5th story, The Proposal we can see it in the last, very last scene. The soundtrack is also incredible and it is in the hands of Gustavo Santaolalla, an Argentinian producer, and songwriter. His work can also be seen in other pre-staged movies ("Babel", "Into The Wild", "The Brokeback Mountain", "The Motorcycle Diaries") and also in the worldwide famous video game, "The Last of Us". To wrap it up, it's a full movie: you will cry from laughing, you will cry from sadness, you will feel shocked and also a little embarrassed. It's a movie that you can see with a relative, friends, boyfriend, girlfriend, etc. I just don't think it is well suited for children (since it can be a little violent and also have some sexual scenes).
