This movie sucks....


i know...right now there must be like 20 users who want to rip my guts out but its true...this movie is one of the worst ive ever seen...

Ive watched a considerable amount of movies from the united states in my relative short life....and there´s a thing ive learned from them... hollywood makes lame biopics, specially when another culture is one of the most important points of the plot of the film... this film is basically full of historical inaccuracies, lame hollywood cliches and a pathetic overuse, exaggeration and misinterpretation of mexican tradition and cultural elements...frida is portrayed as an extreme stereotype of the mexican woman the only thing missing was his sombrero and a bottle of tequila to complete de picture...

this movie is a hollywood stupid attempt to make a quick buck out of a pop cuture figure...

Whether you liked it ... or you did not. Whether you felt obliged to bother everyone with your opinions, ill-considered ... or not. Face it, this movie aroused something in you ... whether good or bad. At least you're not being apathetic about it.

For myself, I liked it. It was enough to get me interested in Frida and for that, I am grateful.

It's easy to criticise, especially from a basis of ignorance, but there are movies out there that are TRULY bad. This movie is simply not one of them.

Nuff said.

There's real life ... and then there's movies!

I agree with you, this is just a way to make money out of the fame of Frida Kahlo.

Yeah right - like Oscar Wilde said: 'cynics know the price of everything and the value of nothing'.

Perhaps the OP just wants to reach out for some sense of community.

Pop culture figure? Yeah, so much for your opinion.
