Hotel Coppelia

And not to bad a histric drama good technical production,good acting,a bit nudity, after all its a brothel under siege. It is a bit tideous on playlength and the war and action lacks for those squemish, but a recommended dominican republic made film from tgom.

The movie was very promising at the beginning and it was very interesting until it touches the subject of the American invasion. From one moment to another the movie suffers a stagnation and we don't know what it is about and it loses everything that had been achieved at the beginning. Good performance by Lumy Lizardo and the guerrilla woman. Nashla's performance was not for her, she still lacks a lot as an actress for roles like the one in the movie.

I give this movie a 5.5 out of 10.

Firstly it was not just the US, but Canada, Mexico, Brazil that participated in intervening in the 1965 Dominican civil war. For example Canadian troops were there from May 4, 1965 to October 22 1966, fighting the Cuban supplied and aligned communists. In fact the head of the Inter-American Peace Force (IAPF) sent to Dominican Republic was a Brazilian General. This intervention was about about separating two hyper violent warring sides, bot of which were killing civilians, by all historians accounts, the leftist killing the most.

US troops were barely involved in any of the fighting. There were 23 total US casualties, mostly from sniper fire while those troops were protecting civil institutions.

The violence was suppressed very quickly and US service personnel were a minority of the foreign troops there.

Good movie. Entertaining for short times. Sometimes lose the rhythm but it is easy to recover it. Good performances from Lumy Lizardo and Jazz Vila. It's a drama that touches on historical events in the Dominican Republic in 1965.

This film shows us the other perspective of the revolution fight. 7/10.

It is a movie that in its entirety we can consider it as good, however, the performances in many of the scenes lacked to convey the drama and intensity of the story. A very well structured script and direction, with the opportunity to stick even more to the real historical context.
