Argentinian film that comes off as a bad parody of some sold school noir. Ojos Que No Ven, is as a film an utter failure, with characters as flawed as a Chinese hot Luois Vutton bag purchased in the village. The funniest part of it is the detective who totally rips Columbo off and goes for his smoke in my eyes grin, chain smokes and pretends he is a badass while slowly solving a generic crime that involves all the usual suspects, to that add terrible acting, and you get something really, really, really unoriginal. This should be avoided and never mistaken with the Peruvian film firected by the always reliable Francisco Lombardi, whos Ojos QUe No Ven is not only more intelligent but real.
I saw this movie last night, and I don't know who over 14 years old is a fan of Aston Kutcher but this guy is one of the worst actors out there, I mean he is good enough for sitcom work, but sustaining a film that takes itself as seriously and unintendedly hilariously as The Butterfly Effect; negative kudos for whoever did the casting, unless that is, Kutcher produced the film as his own vehicle to serious acting, but not all is to blame the guy, the plot itself is ludicrous and the shifting realities go way extreme to the other extreme, this probably would have worked better as a parody of some Night Shyamalan film, but I guess those that worked at it are not clever enough for that. The film is entertaining enough, it never bores you to death, or pummels you with preachiness, but do not come to it expecting The Sixth Sense, like some blind critic once said.
Leading a rather unremarkable life, rarely provides a compelling enough reason for a biopic starring an academy award winning actress, but i guess anything gets greenlighted these days. So American poet Sylvia Plath had mental problems and her insecurities pushed her to suicide on more than one occasion, talented she was, extremely jealous and prone to sudden bouts of insecurity and ridicule she was too, all this according to some producers was enough to make a film about. As a movie, Sylvia is quite dull, but I guess when you base it in someone as boring as the poet, what more can you expect? Whoever the guy is who plays Sylvia's husband does a nice job at it, I saw the dude in The Mother, and the lad is talented alright. My question is, why was Sylvia Plath worth making a movie? She was boring and did not have a great personalities, her flaws were common human weaknesses.
