O Entregador

Seeing this on Netflix, I was immediately attracted to it by the impression that Louis Zahera was the star. I've loved him in everything he's been in, but it's misleading to imply he stars in this as he's got very limited screen time.

That aside, it's a fun crime romp in similar vein to The Business or any Guy Ritchie film. Basically, crime doesn't pay but it's bloody good fun while it lasts!

Laura Sepúl is a beautiful blue-eyed slightly older woman who is 100% sexier than the younger bimbos that the main character hooks up with - she's really good.

More Luis was needed, and I'd have given this more stars if he was in it more, but he's woefully under-used in this and if I hadn't seen his face on the Netflix description of this film I'd probably not have bothered watching it.

Ok no more to say but still not enough characters? Maybe IMDB you need to reduce your limit as there's not always that much to say!

I've been looking for shows like this for so long

I've watched thousands of movies, and funny enough, never given any reviews.

This show is very similar to:

• Rising High
• Wolf of wall street
• The Laundromat

and other similar movies.

The production quality (amazing), and the plots is the most shocking part of this film.

I didn't at any point feel "Okay hey, that's absolutely stupid, there's no chance this scene or series of events would ever happen in real life"

The show in itself, now thinking about it, comes off a little bit too serious. Maybe 1 or 2 little comedic scenes would be appreciated.

I'm all for a part 2 or even a limited series of 3 episodes, as an anker.

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.

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.

Daniel Calparsoro returns to what he does best: a fast-paced thriller, shot with energy and determination, that never stops to catch its breath. El correo hooks you with rhythm and staging, with chases and twists that keep the tension alive, even if the feeling of "I've seen this before" comes up more than once. It doesn't try to change the rules of the game, but it does manage to keep you glued to the screen from beginning to end.

The economic and social backdrop gives the story an extra layer of interest, evoking a period marked by ambition and shady deals. It doesn't dive too deep, but it adds a touch of realism that grounds the characters and gives some weight to what could otherwise be just pure action.

The cast works well overall, with solid performances and a few characters who stand out more than expected. Many roles feel familiar, but the energy they bring helps prevent them from being completely flat.

Visually, the film looks slick, with an ambition that aims to place it among international thrillers. Sometimes that ambition feels a little forced, as if it wants to look bigger than it really is, but the result is still stylish and appealing.

In the end, El correo is pure Calparsoro: rhythm, intensity, and a straightforward style that doesn't let up. It may repeat formulas and not surprise much, but as entertainment it works just fine and delivers exactly what it promises: a good time.
