    great indie film

    This is a very good little independent film. The story blew me away, all the way until the end. I wish more big studio films had the sensitivity and story telling ideas this film had. This film reminded me of "Maria Full of grace" an immigrant story set in Jackson heights. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find a film about Colombian immigrants in the U.S that had nothing to do with drug trafficking. The acting was very natural and sincere the lead actress Pierangeli did a wonderful job driving this story. Surrounded by a great supporting cast and most noted a very strong performance from Maria Cecilia Sanchez as (Charon). I would definitely recommend this film. If you are in the mood for a good story with some nice twists all the way until the end, go see this film.

    Carmen G (Drama, Fiction)

    Carmen G is a very good movie. This movie has drama, fiction and a great social message, (Breast Cancer, Immigration). I think that is a very good movie. I think a is reality, with a bit of fiction. It has a excellent cast and very talented protagonist, made ​​me laugh and cry several times. I see his transformation gradually. The movie has very good shots of New York and photography. It has a very clear message, about immigration and the difficulties that illegal immigrants suffer. I believe that is an eye opener for many who do not know the suffering of illegals immigrants in U.S.A.

    I recommend it to everyone.

    Carmen G

    " Carmen G" I do believe that many people has a history like that. Means something that is carried out all the life and it makes a crazy fact. The creativity of the screenplay and the effects added for that interesting cast around the protagonist, with people from several countries from different countries and cultures, makes a multi cultural encounter around the creativity. The sound and the music is appropriate and also shows a multicultural performance making it very rich. The Color and the photography in the movie looks nice.

    I went to a theater looking for entertaining and I found "Carmen G" a little sad but all the time under the drama, with reflections around social behavior which made it interesting, so I do recommend you to fallow where is going to be next "Carmen G" in theaters, this time was in Los Angeles at Norwalk where I enjoy this one.

    Good for the Independent Filmmakers!

    True Movie

    Carmen G is "A true Hispanic film, the movie could be located just about anywhere in Latin America , Is one of the most influential and incendiary World Cinemas !!! Must surely be Latin and Spanish Cinema. Carmem G share a sense of the grittiness of the so called Cinema, this truth movie with a beauty and melodrama which seems to be as much a part of their day to day life .They evoke images of passion, color, and a visual veracity all of their own . the film that most people associate with Latin cinema's it is a sometimes complex work with very emotions .Carmem G is perhaps the film's greatest achievement." Anf one the best,movies ever made..
