Torrente 5: Operación Eurovegas

I love the TORRENTE character and I believe if perhaps the greater movie character ever developed; however after waiting to almost 1 AM to see the movie (on a Wednesday) because it was SOLD OUT; after a few minutes I almost leave the theater completely disappointed.

First of all; some characters are back but with different actors and not as good as the originals. Others quite capable like Firoentino Fernandez are almost unused. Screen time was given to the more stupid characters (perhaps cheaper actors) and very little to the really good ones but Santiago Segura who this time is not really able to keep the movie going.

Alec Baldwin is another misstep; usually a good actor and somewhat comedian; here is none. Only overacts as the bad guy and dares to speak Spanish (not that bad really but little).

Instead of going to excess situations the script tries to criticize Spanish political situation. If you are aware of what is happening there you can catch some jokes; but it is not easy to understand, I really hope Segura (also the writer and director) makes some money to repair this mess and makes a good Torrente 6. In the meantime; just forget this.

I'm hungarian. All Torrente movies are huge hits in Hungary. This is no different. The voice of Torrente and punchlines of the dubbed torrente is amazing. Probably very funny in Spanish as well but too fast to read in english. Actors and directors these days might be too afraid of movies like this because it is so offensive towards everyone. But that is exactly why it is great. People have no sense of humor these days. If your're one of them do not watch it. Simple. 5 movies made for a reason. People like it. Hope to see a 6th one soon. Enough said just watch it already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Torrente 5 is a very well done movie, with high quality images and production, nice VFX, nice jokes. Everything you can expect and much more from a Torrente movie.

The cameos are very entertaining and funny and the old jokes are always welcome. It is a very good movie from the saga, well directed and well chosen actors.

It is what you can expect, the bad taste jokes from all times and new jokes very well adapted, with a shallow criticism (sometimes we need somebody to jump over the tabu) and very entertaining. And cinema is, over all, entertainment + money. It gave what i wanted to see and much more.

Segura is a great director. Torrente 5 should be the last movie, and now we wait for other stories and plots.

I have never seen or heard of the Torrente movies saying that I cant compare them to the previous movies but I did enjoy this one. After reading some of the other reviews that were so negative and unjust, I just had to give my two cents! If your you're looking for a Critically-acclaimed award winning Movie, no this is not for you. If you want some almost painful to watch slapstick humor that will hurt your side from laughing like the three stooges then yes this is for you. Its like watching Larry David on Curb Your Enthusiasm, always setting him self up for failure. The viewer sees it coming a mile away and just enjoys seeing the comedic failure. It is a bit derogatory towards woman and misogynistic in my opinion but to me it shows the cultural differences on what is exceptable here in America versus Spain. (or the rest of the world for that matter) If a major movie company in America was this misogynistic in a comedy and not a drama, they would be shunned. Now I feel bad for enjoying the movie. I would have been just as (stupid) funny without the scenes I speak about. It is not OK to encourage or endorse this behavior. So I guess I can only say that I liked this movie because I learned something from it. I Love my Mom, my sisters, my nieces, my aunts and my grandmothers...Don't we all?

Godawful dumbifying movie.Whatever possessed Alec Baldwin to be part of this is beyond me, watching him having to go along with the gross stupid humorless jokes was painful, kind of like De Niro making "fun" of Taxi Driver in Rocky and Bullwinkle. No joke ever work, editing looks rushed, poor choices everywhere, actors have no comedy timing , specially lead actor Segura.

This is much worst than that movie. This is bad, idiotic, terrible movie making. There is nothing else to say. Avoid like Ebola.

The dumb obligation to write at least 10 lines of text forces me to add this.
