Tras haber sido la gran triunfadora de los Goya, tras los grandes comentarios suscitados, no me quedó otra que pasar por la taquilla para verla, rehusando la opción del alquiler o internet en pocos meses. Entré en el cine con la absoluta convicción de que lo que iba a ver me iba a gustar, y me encontré con un inicio bueno, esperanzador, con un buen planteamiento y una idea original, con un tema de fondo siempre atractivo: el carcelario.
Pues no me gustó, y no la recomendaría. Conforme la película avanza se torna oscura, violenta, desagradable con letras mayúsculas, y de forma constante. No pasan 15 segundos sin tacos, sin gritos, sin odio, sin sangre. A quien le guste eso gozará, pero 1 hora de horrores ininterrumpidos se me hizo duro. Personalmente, la violencia o acción bien justificada me parece divertida, pero en este caso el hilo conductor me pareció poco creíble, con un trasfondo incluso yankee, exagerado.
La presencia de la mujer embarazada y el marido para mí fue un lastre demasiado pesado en la película. Esa carga emotiva pasó de ser un complemento al inicio, a lastrar toda la trama. Es decir, Celda 211 resulta en un drama emocional yankee envuelto de brutalidad incesante.
A pesar de pegarme mi última hora incómodo en la butaca, disfruté bastante de la magistral interpretación de Luis Tosar. El personaje de Malamadre destaca por sí sólo. Lo mejor y casi lo único de Celda. Me gustó Carlos Bardem y el ambiente de los presos, buen casting. Sin embargo, el actor protagonista, Alberto Amman, no me pareció creíble durante la película. Mediocre. El mediador del Gobierno o los oficiales carcelarios aún peor.

Let me tell you I see very, very few TV shows, but that one caught me from the beginning. Just fascinating.
First you find men who are supposed to be mad but you find them not at all. But slowly you start to see the title is not wrong, they are superficially correct and plane characters. Wait only a bit, mad ambitions, mad subtleties, and the mad kind of live we all have now started perhaps those days in the 50's.
Let me tell you about Don, the main man. He's seemingly totally perfect, tall, polite, intelligent, fierce, seductive. He's got the perfect wife, perfect job, perfect house and life. It's fascinating how you can feel his deep sadness underlying every movement, both confidence, talent and a strange bitterness follows wherever he goes.
Wonderful script, nothing is absolutely, nothing ends perfectly, everything rides open and freely, you get shocking scenes, really impressive ones, as well as sentimentally hypnotizing sometimes.
Characters: Cooper is wonderful, Sterling is just wow, Betts is a new icon of conduct and behavior also of perfect beauty, Joanne is excitingly seductive but so subtle you have to raise a smile. Creatives and account men develop accurate mad stories where gossip, ambition and appearances feel comfortable.
I would recommend it, but not everyone is ready. In Mad Men even the air speaks and that's usually a boring language for the most.

I am really astonished reading all the commentaries and the incredible average mark of the film. This movie is simply deceiving.
When I first saw Batman Begins, I really loved it. From then I began to investigate more about Christohper Nolan and his films. I discovered also that Memento was directed by him, as well as Insomnia with Al Pacino and Robin Williams, highly interesting thriller placed in Alaska.
Back to "Knight", I found it firstly too long. I went with 3 friends and all of them slept the whole last hour.
Secondly, and probably the most important from my point of view, the plot is not surprising and of a quality you wouldn't expect from such an expensive movie.
More, Christian Bale is not the same. In that film Batman as well as Bruce Wayne are poor, somehow sad, definitely not inspiring. Nothing comparable to his performance in Psycho. All the action scenes are the same, batman knocking and slamming with its legs, arms and fists. Where is the intelligence and slyness? The highly praised Heath Ledger is not bad, but the character, this new Jocker is deceiving again. Not fun, not subtle nor ironic, simply violent.
To finish with, this film is too long, unnecessarily complicated, and if you see the images of the trailer, you have seen it all.
