Granizo

A meteorologist famed for his accurate predictions on the news gets his very own show...for one night. Because of an unexpected storm he loses all credibility and gains something much more valuable.

As his error puts his life on the line in Argentina's capital city: Buenos Aites; he goes into hiding in in his hometown, specifically his estranged daughter's place. Here the plot turns into a story of family, forgiveness and not forgetting ones' past, whilst storms rage around him!

Without shoving Climate Crisis down viewers' throats, the film hints at the unpredictability and growing harshness of Mother Nature's ire with the darkest sense of humour Argentina has produced. The heartfelt reconciliation of father and daughter is as short as the storms the film portrays, and not as visually impressive!

Not an Armageddon or a 2012 disaster film, but a lovely finding yourself film with storms in the background.

If you are looking for a fun movie with good jokes, excellent acting and beautiful scenery from Argentina, this movie is well worth a watch. If you are looking for scientific accuracy, you'll be disappointed. Overall it was great entertainment!

Another/my version of the pros and cons of the movie: Pros:

• nice production/scenarios (nice houses, Buenos Aires, Cordova and the hills of Argentina)
• quite funny dialogs, specially from the main character, who is a pretty good actor
• nice story about job/ego versus family

Cons:

• scientifically inaccurate and absurd, but who cares? Just play along

Good enough to provide a nice time in a Saturday night.

This film was produced for Netflix and Kweller.

I think the best part is the special effects at the end, in general everything is very poor

I can't believe that Nicolas Giacobone was the same one who wrote the script for Biutiful and Birdman, because this story is so poor.

The performances are not good and for the Argentine viewers the crude cameos of the kweller group do not look good (Kutnezoff, Lozano, O donell, Peña, is too much)

Oh boy, this could have been so much more. It tries to be a comedy, it fails. Could be a drama, it fails. Maybe some disaster film? It isn´t. Or maybe it is, regarding quality.

Francella, a once mediocre comedian turn into a very good drama actor during the last fifteen years, it´s totally wasted here. His comedy doesn´t work.

The film starts very weak with tons of horrible characters. Unfunny, uninteresting, and thrown into the mix in such an old way....pure antique stereotypes that are hard to swallow.

The movie gets better during the second and third act, not a great improvement but enough to make this film watchable. Film is also a word that doesn´t fit here. Sometimes it feels like a mediocre TV show.

My rating is 6 only because some decent special effects and the dramatic second act, where I could notice some decent acting. Besides despite some many flaws (some BIG), this film entertains a little bit.
