  1. The Vow "Todos los días de mi vida"
    This film is directed by Michael Sucsy. The main characters are Rachel McAdams and Channing Tatum.

    The plot of this film is very sad. It goes about a girl, Paige, who was in love with Leo. She has an accident which puts her in a coma. After that Paige won't remember her past, and the most important, she won't remember about her love, Leo. During the film, Leo tries to win her heart again.

    That's the most romantic film I have never seen. I recommend to see that film because it is a very nice love story, that will make you enjoy.

  2. The inception of reality

    “I’m still dreaming” said Saito (Ken Watanabe) in the film Inception, an American film directed and written by Christopher Nolan in 2010. It lasts 148 min and it won 4 Oscar and 3 Bafta awards.

    Inception is a science fiction film which tells the story of Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio), who does a job which consists in implanting an idea on Rober Fischer’s head (Cillian Murphy). To achieve this, he has to deepen in Fischer’s dreams. If he gets it, he will be allowed to go to the USA, where his children are waiting for him. But if not, he and his colleagues will remain stuck in the Limbo for a long time.

    This film is is sometimes a bit heavy and slow, but it is very thought-provoking and has awesome special effects (it won an Oscar for this). For this reason, I strongly recommend this film. I’m sure you will enjoy it.

  3. The title is " La boda de Sophie".

    "It wanted to know better the certain of that rumor" said Sophie (Amanda Seyfried) in the film Mamma Mia, an American film directed by Phyllida Lloyd and written by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus in 2008.

    Mamma Mia is a melodrama film that consist of a 20 year old this girl (Sophie) on the verge of marrying with her boyfriend Sky. His mother, Donna (Meryl Streep) has never told her the one who is her father. When Sophie finds the diary of her mother, she finds the direction of 3 men who might be her father and decides to invite them to her wedding without her mother finds out. Everything is complicated when Sam Carmichael (Pierce Brosnan), Harry Bright ( Colin Firth) and Bill Andersson ( Stellan Skarsgard) come to the island and meet Sophie and Donna. All together tried to solve the mystery of the one who is the real father of Sophie and the one who was taking her to the altar.

    This film is like a musical one and these stocks in songs of the famous group ABBA and Meryl Streep is the principal actress of the musical one. I recommend this film because is very entertaining and that becomes short because all the songs are very nice.

  4. The vampires

    '' Life sucks and then you die. Yeah, I should be so lucky.” said Jacob in the film New Moon, the second part of the world famous ' Twilight Saga'. The film came out in 2008 and starred Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner. It’s a fantasy film about vampires and werewolves, but, more than that, it’s a story about love, friendship and growing up.

    Bella is just a normal teenage girl, but she is in love with Edward Cullen, a vampire. Eduard loves Bella but he wants to keep her from danger and so he decides to end their relationship and move away. From this moment on, Bella becomes closer to her friend Jacob. When we discover that Jacob is in fact a werewolf, the plot becomes more intricate and the final scenes are, really thrilling.

    This film is the relationship between the three main characters, and the other minor characters around them. There are spectacular special effects in the film, but the development and growth of Bella, Edward and Jacob is the most important factor. If you haven’t seen New Moon yet, do yourself a favour and watch it with an open mind. You won’t regret it!

  6. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN

    'I believe that dreams are very important and we should not ignore them.' This phrase sums up the argument.

    'If Only' is an american romantic film of 2004 directed by Gil Junger on which Samantha (Jennifer Love Hewitt) is in love with Ian Wyndham (Paul Nicholls).

    Samantha needs that Ian tells her that he loves her, but he is a hard worker and he has not time.One day, they discussed and their love story is broken with an accident, but Ian has a new opportunity to change the destiny.

    A positive thing is that the effort beats the destiny and the negative thing is that you can not have everything.
    I recommend this film because it has an ending that nobody expected.

  7. The begging of a story

    “I'm looking for someone to share in an adventure” said Gandalf the Grey (Ian McKellen) in the film 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey', an American film directed by Peter Jackson and based on the novel of J.R.R.Tolkien 'The Hobbit'.

    Accompanied by the wizard Gandalf the Grey and thirteen dwarves, the hobbit Bilbo starts a journey led by the legendary warrior Thorin Oakenshield through the land of the elves and forest trolls, from the dungeons of the orcs to the Lonely Mountain, which is the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor, where Smaug the dragon has the enormous gold treasure of the ancient dwarves.

    In this travel, although their goal lies to the East, first they must escape from the goblins' tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature who will change his life forever: Gollum, who lives on the shores of an underground lake. Bilbo stole from Gollum the One Ring, a hypnotic object that holds unexpected and useful qualities.

    Unless you have read the novel before, this film will bore you, but if you have done so, you will find it amazing, with a lot of special effects and pretty well adapted from the original novel. For this reason, I would only recommend you this film if you are such as Lord of the Rings fan.

  9. The notebook

    “The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds. And that's what you've given me. That's what I'd hoped to give you forever” said Noa.

    Is a young couple (Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams) whose love affair was tragically put to a halt after their separation in the midst of World War II. Seven years later, the couple was reunited, and, despite having taken radically different paths, they found themselves unable to resist the call of a second chance.

    I think the way you rate this movie depends on how much of a romantic you are. Unfortunately, I am a romantic, but i see overplays on the viewer's emotions. I believe this was the first time I saw Rachel McAdams, and to me, she is the best cast member. I recommend to see that film because it is a very nice love story, that will make you enjoy, despite the end.

  10. MAN ON FIRE. The film that will open your eyes and will make increase your empathy.

    "Do you think God will forgive us for what we've done?" Creasy asks Rayburn. "No" says Rayburn. "Me neither" says Creasy.

    Action / Drama / Thriller
    Duration: 146 minutes
    Cast: Denzel Washington as Creasy, Dakota Fanning as Pita, Marc Anthony as Samuel, Radha Mitchell as Lisa, Christopher Walken as Rayburn, Giancarlo Giannini as Manzano, Mickey Rourke as Jordan.

    It film explains the story of a minder that has to protect a little 9-years-old girl who is the daughter of an important businessman in Mexico. At first, he is not really interested to grow up a relationship with her but at least, he becomes a father when the real one is not.
    After a piano class, the girl is kidnapped and the minder is wounded. The truth of the kidnapped is that everything was prepared by the father just for a deal. But this entire plan shatters when an ambush happens during the rescue. So the minder Creasy, still wounded, promise to the mother of Pita to kill everybody related to the case.

    If you like action films and a no stop-watching scene this is the film you want to. Also, if you are sentimental and you like stories where the love is the first thing that moves the action, it will make you cry at least!
    But if you don’t like those films that turn you nervous and make you suffer by the actors or the things that are happening, it will make you live an uncomfortable situation.
    Whatever, it would like you and will make you feel agree with the protagonist and the little, lovely girl.

  16. The difficult fight of District 12 (Original tittle, “The Hunger Games”)

    “Here's some advice. Stay alive.” (Haymitch Abernathy). This phrase draws attention because it is not advice normally says.

    The Hunger Games is an American science fiction and adventure film directed by Gary Ross in 2012 and based on the novel by Suzanne Collins. Your duration is about 142 minutes and is starring Jennifer Lawrence, Josh Hutcherson and Liam Hemsworth among others.

    The nation of Panem, divided into 12 districts, is forced to choose a boy and a girl aged 12 to 18 from each district to play the Hunger Games. In the 12th district are chosen Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark. They fight in the arena with the other tributes in order to become the winner of the games. In the Hunger Games can only be one or two tributes from the same district alive. Katniss and Peeta have to overcome the obstacles of government and fight with the tributes of the other districts to stay alive.

    I recommend this movie because it’s about love but also about fight, this attracts all type of public (women and men). The film is an example of the struggle to survive and to get what you want.

  17. The hope is in the revolution (Original tittle: "The Hunger Games")

    "¿Why do we have a winner? Hope" (President Snow). This phrase is simple but very important in the film because with this the president will explain to Senneca that can't be more than one winner in the hunger games because then the districts will have a lot of hope and start a revolution against the capitol. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e3wADQ7IXw (this is the link of this scene).

    The hunger games is a science fiction, action and drama. Directed by Gary Ross and based on the novel best-seller of the same name by Suzanne Collins. It was released on March 21, 2012 in France and other countries, in the Philippines on 22 March and in the United States, its premiere was on 23 March of 2012, as in much of Latin America. In Spain it premiered on April 20, 2012. It's the first film of the trilogy of Suzanne Collins and second film was released in 2013 (Catching Fire). It is the highest-grossing fourth of United States only behind The Avengers ($207,4 million), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - part 2 ($169,2 million) and The Dark Knight ($158,4 million dollars).

    This are the most important aspects of the technical sheet of this film:

    At a future date is not indicated, the nation of Panem has emerged from the ruins of what once was known as North America. Due to a failed uprising of some of the districts of Panem, a draw (known as the harvest) is conducted to choose a guy and a girl from each district, aged between 12 and 18 years old, to subject them to participate in the hunger games, a competition in which each contestant, called tributefight until only one alive. The winner receives the honor, gifts, food and supplies for not worrying about anything anymore. The authority of the Capitol used the hunger games with the excuse of remember annually to 12 districts punishment for their rebellion over 70 years ago. The name of Prim, who now has 12 years, is placed in harvest for the first time - only once - and, unexpectedly, is chosen. Then, Katniss volunteers to replace her sister at the games. It will compete against other taxes, including the "professionals" who have been training for the games illegally during their lifetime.
    My recommendation is that you like the film or you think taht is interesting, you should read the book before you see the film because have a lot of things that in the film there are not for exemple in the book the brooch of the Mockingjay is a present of the daughter of the mayor to Katniss.

  18. Think like a man (2012)
    Cast:
    Gabrielle Union as Kristen
    Kevin Hart as Cedric
    Meagan Good as Mya
    Regina Hall as Candace
    Taraji P. Henson as Lauren
    Directed by Tim Story
    Comedy, Romance (122 minutes)
    Anyone who reads advice books about romance has one problem to begin with: bad taste in literature. The idea that a book can advise a woman how to capture a man is touchingly naive. Books advising men how to capture a woman are far less common, perhaps because few men are willing to admit to such a difficulty.
    Nevertheless, in 2009, comedian and radio host Steve Harvey wrote a best-seller titled Act like a lady, think like a man: what men really think about love, relationships, intimacy and commitment. This was advice for women. It apparently left some questions, because in 2011, Harvey felt the demand for another book, Straight talk, no chaser: How to find and keep a man.
    In the movie "Think like a man," we're expected to believe that every woman in the film bought the book and started living her life according to it. The twist comes when the men in their lives discover their secret reading and study the book themselves. Now the men know the women's game plan.

  19. The destiny of the love ("The vow")

    "I vow to fiercely love you in all your forms, now and forever. I promise to never forget that this is a once in a lifetime love. And to always know in the deepest part of my soul that no matter what challenges might carry us apart, we will always find our way back to each other." said Leo in the film produced by the director Michael Sucsy in USA (2012). The screenwriters are Abby Kohn, Marc Silverstein and Jason Katims. The protagonists are Rachel McAdams (Paige) and Channing Tatum (Leo).

    The wife of a newlywed couple, Paige, suffers a car accident that puts her in a coma. Paige wake up with a memory loss. Her husband Leo want to win her heart again, but will not be easy. Will Leo get the love of their wife?

    In my personal opinion, I recommend this romantic film because shows the love in difficult circumstances. It's a amazing love story based in actual events.

  20. Big changes (Original title: The flowers of the war)

    "What you did today makes you a hero." Said Yu Mo (Ni Ni) in the film directed by Zhang Yimou in China (2011) and starring by Christian Bale, Ni Ni , Xinyi Zhang-Shu and Tianyuan Huang.

    In the 13 of December of 1937, during the war between Japan and China in Nanking, John Miller (Christian Bale), an undertaken, goes to do a job because of the death of a priest, but when he arrives at the church he found a group of schoolgirls with a boy who protect them asking for his help. After arrives a group of prostitutes also goes there to ask for help. Will he help the others or will he look for himself?

  21. Signed Signs

    "Are you the kind that sees signs, that sees miracles? Or do you believe that people just get lucky? Or, look at the question this way: Is it possible that there are no coincidences?" says Graham Hess (Mel Gibson) to his brother in the movie "Signs", directed and written by M. Night Shyamalan and released in 2002. This film lasts 107 minutes and recived positive reciews from film critics. The main actors are Mel Gibson as Graham Hess, Joaquin Phoenix as Merril Hess, Rory Culkin as Morgan Hess and Abigail Breslin as Bo Hess.

    "Signs" is a science fiction thriller film which explains that a family living on farm finds rare signs in their fields, and after this begin to occur frightening events. As the movie advances the history of the characters are more clear.

    This film is a very good film to think about the destiny, about if exists the coincidences, but it isn't a perfect science fiction movie, because the science fiction elements which appear in the film are an excuse to develop the mistery of the movie. I strongly recomend "Signs" to enjoy a film that will make you think a lot.

  22. Gran Torino

    "Have you never found somebody who you souhldn't have annoyed? That's me says Walt Kowalski (Clint Eastwood) to the gangsters band when they want to scare him. This film was directed by Clint Eastwood as well. It was released in 2008 and it lasts 116 minutes. The main actor is Clean Eastwood but Brian Howe and Geraldine Hughes also stand out in the film.

    Gran torino is a drama where the main charachter, Walt Kowalski, is an old man who was a soldier of USA army in corean's war. He lives in Michigan, a neighborhood where recently many immigrants are comming. Everything changes when hmong, a chinese gay, tries to steal his "Gran Torino", because they want to own to a gangsters band. Walt Kowalski decides to help he and her sister which are being threaten by gangsters band.

    This film is one of the best ever. It can make you cry and make you laugh at the same time. This film owns to the kind of films you watch and you don't forget. Probably the special effect or the music band are not the best, but the history and the plot are absolutely amazing. I think everybody should watch this film to grow up as a person, so I strongly recommend this film which will make you a better person.

  23. "Lo impossible"
    “He has founded what he was looking for” that it’s what said a victim of the tsunami when Henry Bennett as Ewan McGregor found his family after looking for them for a long time. The film ”Lo impossible”, it was directed by Juan Antonio Bayona, and it’s a Spanish cinematography. The principal characters are Naomi Watts doing of María Bennett and Ewan McGregor of Henry Bennet.
    “Lo impossible” it’s an dramatic thriller that first you feel is how strong is the nature. The action pass in a family holidays . The film teach us to stay strong behind whatever situation we find, and remember the importance of family.
    The film transmit the idea that if you don’t lose your hope, and you fight hard , all it’s possible. The effects of the film are so really , that make you feel be inside.
    I recommend this film, in my honest mind it’s a biggest film and I was crying like a cupcake.

  24. Catching fire ( Hunger Games 2)
    "Every revolution begins with a spark"
    The revolution has been started in the Districts of Panem. Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark return to district 12 after their victory in the 74th Hunger Games, and they embarking on a "Victor's Tour" for all districts, while, the revolution spreads in Panem and the symbol is Katniss Everdeen " the mockingjay" because people interpreted her conduct in the games as act of revolution, but the Capitol attempts to exercise control to the country and organize the 75th Annual Hunger Games (The Quarter Quell) that is a special version of games, and in this one, former winners will have to re-enter the arena. This means that Katniss has to go and risk almost certain death again. Certainly "The odds are NEVER in our favor"
    Catching Fire is a science fiction adventure film based on Suzanne Collins' novel, the film is the sequel to The Hunger Games, produced and distributed by Lionsgate (duration 146 min) and Francis Lawrence was the director of the film. Jennifer Lawrence returns as Katniss Everdeen along with Josh Hutcherson (Peeta Mellark), Liam Hemsworth (Gale), Woody Harrelson (Haymitch Abernathy), Elizabeth Banks (Effie Trinket), Lenny Kravitz (Cinna), Stanley Tucci (Caesar Flickerman), Donald Sutherland (President Snow), Toby Jones (Claudius Templesmith), Willow Shields (Primrose Everdeen), and Paula Malcomson (Katniss's mum) reprising their roles.
    I think that is a very good sequel, has got many special effects and the argument is more elaborate, in conclusion I recommend you the movie if you're a fan of utopian fantasies. I hope do you like it.

  25. There is only one rule: kill or die

    "I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute!" said Katniss Everdeen when her younger sister, Prim, is chosen to be a “tribute”, but Katniss volunteers to be the tribute in her sister's place.

    "The Hunger Games" is a drama and science fiction film directed by Gary Ross and based on the novel "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins. The duration of this film is 2 hours and 22 minutes and the premiere was in 2012.

    Every year, the evil Capitol of the nation of Panem, composed of 12 districts, one boy and one girl from each of the districts, called "tributes", are selected to fight in the Hunger Games, a televised battle to the death where only one person will live. In the 12th district are chosen Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson). If they're ever to return home to District 12, Katniss and Peeta must make impossible decisions in the arena to stay alive.

    The Hunger Games is also extremely complicated for those who haven't read the book. There are countless things that the viewers won't know if they haven't read the book. The scenes also went by way too fast in my opinion. I would also say that the film is very original and interesting and the special effects are extraordinary.

  26. "If you think in revolution and acts with love, you can be the winner" (Original tittle: The Hunger Games".

    For me the phrase "Happy hunger games and may the odds be ever in your favor" is the one that sumps up all the movie because the say it all the time and even the characters laught at it, they try to represent it as a humoristic sign and so you belive in her that she can win the games.

    The nation of Panem is made up by 12 districts, from the richest to the poorest and have been punished for uprising, so every year, a tribute should be given to the Capitol, one girl and one boy, and they must figth to death. This year the chosen ones are Primrose Everdenn, a 12 years old girl, but she's changed by her sister Katniss Everdeen. Katniss, along with Peeta Mellark will fight with another 22 tributes. During the games, Peeta and Katniss will se how to survive because they want to win, by the stregh or by the love that will show on the games.

    I recommend this film for the story represents, like a Goverment that punishes their people for the uprising. Even if you like action films or love ones with this film you will enjoy. The actors play a very good role and make you feel what they want you to feel. In my opinion, with the book you'll feel the story much better and obviously has parts that the film doesen't.

    The Godfather talk about the business of a family of New York , but this business have a particular thing that makes different of the other jobs. Vito Corleone is the boss or the capo of crime family in New York and as the film progresses we can see the problems and the actions that the different members of the family make. The murder , the blood and crime are things that appears in the movie , but ever with significate , not is blood and blood for watchers violents.

    I recommend this film 100 % , because in my opinion is better spend time in films that enrich you than others like hungary games for pamphile adolescents

  30. MAGIC OR JUSTICE?
    (Original tittle: NOW YOU SEE ME)

    'Come in close, because the more you think you see, the easier it’ll be to fool you', said Daniel Atlas at the beggining of the film, when he is doing a magic trick with cards. In this magical adventure also accompany Daniel other 'wizards', Merritt McKinney, Henley Reeves and Jack Wilder.

    Directed by: Louis Leterrier
    Produced by: Bobby Cohen, Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci
    Screenplay by: Ed Solomon, Boaz Yakin, Edward Ricourt
    Story by: Boaz Yakin, Edward Ricourt
    Starring: Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson, Mélanie Laurent, Isla Fisher, Dave Franco, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman

    It film explains the history of four 'wizards' , ilusionists that are rather unknown before the call of a anonimous person that want to unite them with the objective that they realize some proves, to show 'he' if they are prepared to turn one of the four riders. Be one of this riders would be turn to a person with more power and wisdom of magic in the world. And... what is the problem? Not everything is as easy as it looks. An FBI team seems that they are commiting thefts around the world whith their espectacles. During the robbery, always against corrupt businessmen, make it rain money stolen over the spectators.

    I recommend this film because it have an argument that intrigues and make you think about all that is happening during the film. All that succes in the film is surprising and it's impossible guess what will happen in the final and who is the 'anonimous person' that make all possible about the riders. The final is amazing.
