Through My Window 3: Looking at You

I loved it. I knew I wasn't going to watch a masterpiece and I didn't get one but for a romantic film it is worth your time. I don't mind the clichés, besides that's what you watch romance for. The director's work is remarkable, the acting is more than adequate, the chemistry between the leads is undeniable, so much that you'd think they are a couple in real life. Some scenes could be omitted and I didn't like the way Claudia's role developed, but that's trivial. My measure of how much I appreciated a movie is whether I'd rewatch and it is an absolute yes! Don't be put off by overdemanding viewers, just enjoy!

The "A Través De Mi Ventana" trilogy comes to an end with this film that is better than the second installment, but makes almost the same mistakes as the previous film. This movie is also an original story that is not related to the last book in the trilogy and presents many situations without much development. It has a couple of ideas that make the film more interesting, but they haven't been explored in depth or fully explained.

It all starts with Raquel, having launched her novel inspired by what she experienced in the first film. That is a clear representation towards Ariana Godoy when she wrote the original novel, since she herself admitted that she was based on a real experience that she had with a neighbor, but she never got to have with him what happened with Raquel and Ares . This quite corroborates the hypothesis that Wattpad novels are an explicit reflection of the authors' fantasies and dreams and they live them through an alter ego who is the protagonist of the story. Normally, many of us tend to express our dreams, desires and fantasies through writing and what Godoy did in her book is totally valid, no matter how questionable it may be. Although many say that Ariana and other Wattpad authors are not real writers, there is no denying the fact that some of them have been university students who at least know a little about literature. Godoy's own biography corroborates that she has studied at the university and has even been a teacher. If there is something that the Wattpad stories have made clear, it is that today you can be a writer without having to have studied. It is thanks to social networks that they have now given us free rein to be any type of popular figure without the need to have had prior knowledge about any subject. That is neither a good nor a bad thing. It is something totally neutral and valid.

Ares now has a problem regarding Raquel and that is that now he must maintain a commitment to Vera for a family business matter. This is the case where a couple must commit to being united for the economic good of both families. That's the most interesting conflict this movie has, although there was a lot that needed to be detailed. Among other conflicts involving the Hidalgo brothers, Artemis is about to become a father and there is the question of whether he will be able to be a good father because his own father never taught him what paternal love is. There is also the secret affair that Apolo begins to have with another boy and that worries Daniela, although it is a bit absurd for her to worry about it, since she had an affair with another girl in the presence of Apolo. Logically, if Daniela could be with another person in the middle of her relationship with Apolo, then Apolo also had every right to see someone else. These subplots occurring with Apollo and Artemis could have contributed quite a bit to the plot, but it's a shame they didn't delve deeper. Anna is almost invisible in the film and like in the second, she is only there to lead to what happens at the end.

It is curious that they have decided that the plot takes place at Christmas and the end of the year, as if it were a symbolism about how Rachel and Ares' stage in the trilogy ends to begin a new stage. What can be seen is that the film is the least cliché of the trilogy, with a more realistic approach oriented towards the characters' emotions. Taking into account the target audience for Wattpad stories, the film may be pleasing for its drama, but not so pleasing for not having the level of youthful clichés that make Wattpad stories so popular. You could say that clichés are the essence of Wattpad stories and are what their audience always expects to see. Ariana Godoy participated again as a consultant and this time she managed to contribute something because the film has something of her feel. This could have been the best film of the trilogy, but it is not due to the lack of structure in the script. Nothing more was needed to better coordinate the ideas and subplots. Although much of the film feels quite average, the best thing is the ending that manages to give a very good conclusion to the story arc of Rachel and Ares. There are still more loose ends to tie up, but it is clear that for fans of this work, only Raquel and Ares matter, not the others.

In conclusion, "A Través De Tu Mirada" is not that different from the second film because both were made just to replicate the success of the first film, but at least it gives a good ending to the love story of Raquel and Ares. The toxicity that many accused the novel and the first film of does not exist in this latest installment and that at least gives Raquel and Ares that ending that many young girls dream of. If it had had a better structure and more development, it would have been a great film. My final rating for this movie is a 6/10.

The first two movies were awsome, loved them.

I was excited they were releasing the final in the trilogy just be completely let down. The storyline is just plain awful, its too predictable, very corny, super creepy at times. Have to admit its pretty stupid, not realistic, the Banter was almost intolerable. They could have done so much with it i just cant understand how they couldnt see that it was a bad script and continue with it and then release it . Werid. I mean ares is sexy af but that all this 3rd movie was good for was eye candy . Aside from that it was a Epic failure! Horrible Horrible !!!

This movie is the best movie ever.because it makes the day of the couple.and also it teaches people.

The biggest waste of time, if the first two episodes were just fine, this one is pathetic! It seems that all the events are done just to fill time, the narrative threads are not coherent or important, we cannot see an evolution in the true sense of the word in people, it is true, it is a Netflix movie in the romance category, but that does not mean that it is not there must be coherence and evolution for people. Many scenes and narrative threads are not finished or have no purpose, as I said, done just to fill time. It is also noticeable how certain mandatory topics are introduced in cinematography such as gay relationships, but which in my opinion had no place in the current story because, apart from a few sexual shots, they fail to convey absolutely any message. It feels like the director and the production had a list of what they had to defend in a modern screening that would catch all categories and they said let's put everything in but without following a logic or without showing a story or useful information .

Unfortunately, the story does not come with a new plot, it is full of clichés and the ending is totally predictable.
