Les Evadés de Santiago

Great movie with great performances and an image that does not seem like it was a Chilean movie, very good music, and although they are actors that we have seen many times in Chilean cinema, they provide very good performances, good script that in this country is looked at less, in my opinion the best Chilean movie I've seen, without taking merit from machuca Thanks criticas qls for the recommendation

And bite the dust later, because the claustrophobia reall took hold on me. its a jailbreakdrama, folloming the generics og the genre, and i suppose it has to be so, because everybody knows what happens and therefore nothing really new for others to copy.

its sweat and there a stamina, like a workoutscheme toward the olympic games, the actors do a fine job and some of the filmographic standards are pretty high. not too steady editing, but with music that gives the real feel, and a plot that i think filled the playtime very sufficently.

well, a prison made of bricks cant block real daredevils , and a low staff numvber its even more defensless, so with patience my friend everything goes well. an ok film...

What a good movie #PactoDeFuga of the best that will be seen this year. A film that was scheduled to premiere for 10/2019 but with everything that happened in Chile, it had to be delayed and it seems that it is made for the country today. The stories are so well told, the dialogues are assertive and do not feel like a performance (which despite being obvious is appreciated) the last third of the film has you with the soul in a thread, because despite being based on a real fact (YES, THIS IF I PASS IN CHILE) in the same way, the narrative used is very tense.

It is a Chilean film that does not seem Chilean, despite being a Chilean story. It can be a story from anywhere in the world where a dictatorship was lived or lived and that makes it universal.

Separate and fundamental point, the performances (there were some problems, mainly with certain extras, but hey ...) they are great, Vicuña does not look like that ordeal that is tried to make the humorous, and really that it is graced, the rest of the cast 100 points, (Farias always great)

Finally, the soundtrack, where the 80's classics could obviously not be missing, but the best thing is that for the main theme they chose Ana Tijoux, that is, if everything went well, when one hears his voice, it is an energetic burden huge. The truth is a movie that must be seen.

Great movie with the pure Hollywood style. Inspired in real facts occurred in chile during the 80'

It's very rare that a newb filmmaker hits the mark, especially when wearing the writer, director, editor and producer hats. But Chilean filmmaker David Albala hit it out of the ballpark. This is his first full length feature film, with less than a handful of shorts and docs, and imo, he did better than films I've seen lately from seasoned filmmakers.

The cinematography, camera angles and score were outstanding. Using only a prison location for most of the setting, it was utilized and shot perfectly. The casting was excellent, with convincing performances. Even the clothes, hair and mustaches were on point with the era. The pacing was decent for the 135 min runtime, but it could've used a pick-up in some acts and/or the runtime cut down 15-20 mins.

Otherwise, an excellently assembled presentation inspired by real events. The newspaper covers during the ending credits was a great decision - you will laugh at one of them. It's a well deserved 8/10 from me. To see my review criteria and more of my 1000+ ratings and reviews, click on my username. But first, see this little Chilean gem!
