When I first heard about this film I was really interested in it (I love movies that take place in that era) but it's a good thing I didn't get my hopes up I guess. The reviews for this movie are less than flattering and I'm beginning to find Cruz very annoying. If any of you want to read some of the reviews, they have a bunch of them gathered at Rotten Tomatoes. Here's the link: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/head_in_the_clouds/

yeah cruz is so irritating she sings in the bathtub with a horrible voice and doe some stupid dance solo,watches as stuart and charlize have sex........
sharewhat???? no! she was fabulous in this movie. she conveyed all kinds of emotion under the model/stripper carefree attitude. plus, with the whole watching them have sex, i felt bad for her at that part (though i was really too distracted by stuartsbod to notice :P) but she was in love with gilda which she gave up so easily.

Actually... I am beginning to wonder if Penelope Cruz can actually act. I have seen her in three movies. She always seems to play the same part. She delivers her lines, in a detached and dispassionate way. It almost seems like she is thinking about something else and waiting for the filming to be over. True she is very beautiful and has a nice figure, but that doesn't make an actress.
shareWell santacruzette you can say the same about Charlize then... She has to appear half naked in every movie.. thats annoying me.. but hey who cares.. if there role need there sort of acting i dont care.. It was a great movie and the casting was as it should same for charlize and cruz
"Many who live deserve death some who have died deserved life"
agreed. charlize theron irritates the *beep* out of me.
shareYou certainly havent seen the movie "Monster" then, if you think that Charlize Theron is a bad actress. Watch that, then comment here.
sharei didn't say she was a bad actress; i said she irritated me.
shareI thought Penelope Cruz got better as the film progressed,like the scences when she became a war nurse,I did like her better than Charlize. I think she was awkward in this because she had to act opposite of a real life couple Stuart and Charlize. Just like ScarJo was in Vicky Cristina when she had to do scences with Penelope and Javier.
shareI don't really like penelope either but in SPANGLISH she was, surprisingly, pretty good.
Edit: Let's just say Paz Vega looks ALOT like Penelope Cruz. My mistake guys. No wonder I thought she was good. Penelope is complete crap. :(
Penelope is "pretty good" in Spanglish because she doesnt "appear" in that movie!!!!

Your statement is superficial and overly emphasized. Usually people without maturity tend to under cease such matured intellectual conversation, as pertaining to the movie's dialogue. The movie is realistic, factual, and undeniably ingenuous. The fact that you take the noises of a persons voice is completely rude and ruthless along with "Can't write a 'real' review without even considering the subject of matter in which you take annoyance to someone's so called voice, when their is more important issues to discuss about the movie." I'd say before you write about a movie, make a Worth-While statement and maybe for once you would consider the movie to be satisfactory on your behalf, leaving out the revolting language that is so-called a point.
~Say something that you 'did' like about the film. Nothing has to be so negative. I find that alot here on this site & it seems that life with movies can't please people because either they are not rich or recognized in the media like the so-called celebrities that do their best in these films, such as Cruz you are talking about. She did a fantastic job in, Head In The Clouds! Though honestly it wasn't my favorite movie but I would not say that it was horrible... even if I didn't like it at all. I'd just say, wasn't my cup of tea... that's enough for someone to get the point. Don't you think?
incredibly beautiful woman but she's not much of an actress (Cruz)
so many movies, so little time
