Movie Reviews of La Vendedora De Rosas
Movie Review: Raw and good.
Summary: 5 Stars
Don't miss it... Few movies can compare to this tour de force by the colombian cineast... I don't think there is a movie out there where the violence is as close to real life as in this movie... The real life in the ghetto's of colombia... You won't forget it soon...Movie Review: Excelente filme!
Summary: 5 Stars
Este es un filme que refleja la realidad de todo lo que pasa en muchos paises de america latina, la verdad valae la pena verlo, es una cruda realida, pero increiblemente cosas parecidas pasan en la vida real. Os invito a verlo, es un gran filme!!Movie Review: Disturbing
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an unbelievable film. "...Rosas" is graphic and truly disturbing as it captures the squalid life of the gamin in Medellín, Colombia. The children lead a life of sex, drugs, and prostitution without compunction. They are the sad result of broken homes. The film is a commentary on how the war on drugs has lead to the neglect of Colombia's poor. The irony of it all, the children are not hooked on cocaine but glue. They sniff the stuff out of paper bags, slowly depleting their young brain cells every time they use it. A very disturbing, yet enlightening, film. It brings awareness to a growing problem in Colombia and questions the results of the Colombian government having to concentrate its efforts fighting the drug cartels and guerrilla insurgents rather than concentrating its efforts rehabilitating the children who will surely wind up contributing to the drug-insurgency problem in the future. The kids in the film did a wonderful job in their performance, really good acting, and the directing was very sharp, weaving the different subplots seamlessly without having to clumsily intersect them. The film is in a sense a docudrama. Even though the film is not as effective as "Children of God," the film does succeed in making the viewer aware that there is more to the troubles in Colombia besides the things your read about in the New York Times.Movie Review: A street film starring street kids
Summary: 4 Stars
This is the crude reality of Medellin's mean streets. There's no interesting story to follow but the scenes in this film will keep you on that chair until the end. The best part is that all of the actors are real street kids that will incure in any kind of illegal activity to survive and in some cases to support their addiction to drugs. These actors are not impersonating a character, they're just being themselves. After filming the movie 9 of the actors died violently and many others have been in jail, including the main character, Leydy Tabares.Movie Review: Eye Opener
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie is a must see.. it definitely shows the effects that children with poor family structure can easily be veered into negative influences like drugs, prostitution, homelessness etc.. in search for a loving relationship or just some attention.. I would definitely recommend parents show this movie to adolescents as an eyeopener...Both can learn from the movie..
