El correo

A quick and good depiction of the huge corruption that left us where we are today. All these shameless corrupt politicians and "business men/women" shall rot in hell.

Good acting and fun to watch reminding me the Ocean's eleven style.

I looked for an easy movie to watch on a Sunday evening and this completely made the deal.

Just because a film is entertaining doesn't mean it's good, and El correo (2024) is a clear example of that.

I like Aron Piper, but I think this is the weakest performance I've seen from him. The voice-over narration (by Piper himself) is so unconvincing that it often pulls you out of the story - and that, too, is part of the acting.

The plot is overly simple, bringing nothing new and failing to stand out in any way.

As for director Daniel Calparsoro, his work doesn't connect with my way of seeing cinema; after watching more of his films, he still doesn't manage to convince me.

Lets start by saying that the plot seemed very standard and cliché to me, with little innovation. There is no doubt that men will like it more, but it is not my cup of tea.

It's a trip to the real corruption in Spain, just at the beginning of the euro currency, and still with the pesetas in mind. Sadly this type of corruption has not changed much and is still going strong in Spain, that's why the part I liked the most about the movie is the final one, with the real images of the corrupt that in the end WE all ended up paying for. That's why the story has a cynical humor.

Even if the character is fictional the story is very real, but I think the film tries to cover too much, and gets cliché and cheesy. Also predictable.

Not my cupper like I said.

I don't know why everybody gave this a six. Is it super critically acclaimed? No. Was it super fun to watch like fast and the furious 1? Yes it was.

A typical hero's journey from from a lower class family in Spain, finessing and hustling his way into higher society in europe, clubs, parties, girls, coconut, international travel, seducing beautiful women. A really fun movie to watch. Cinematography was wonderful. Aron did a pretty good job acting and I think he was very convincing as a spanish gangster motivated by getting as rich as possible. I did some research into Aron after turns out he does music too, I could totally see the connection.

A fun movie for the guys, or to watch with a chick. The movie was filmed quite well, paces well, and the supporting actors were fun to watch and convincing as well. I enjoyed it!

How do you define a beautiful movie? Perhaps a movie which builds up suspense up to the last minute. A movie which you start and finish on the same day ! A movie which you may suggest to your friends to watch it.

The director and the rest of the cast did a perfect job in blending the story of the movie with a real event....the financial crisis which dissolved the economies of several European countries. The corrupted Spaniards in the movie have no difference with the corrupted Cypriots. (Its unbelievable how the movie resembles the financial crisis of Cyprus and the way the corrupted criminals were acting).

Brussels, Switzerland, and Spain is where the story takes place.

The story has several twists and even though the end seems predictable it does not limit the suspence. The leading character is a very promising actor. The rest of the actors also do their job in an excellent way.

Nice cinematography and the appropriate music add to the overall positive result. Even though the movie is labeled as thriller I would call it as action + (financial) crime.

So for a pleasant viewing at home I give it an 8 and I suggest that you watch it.
