Gray's Anatomy series is fantastic, great character development, good plots, (even though in S 6 there was some Dr. House influence which is very pathetic, like when Dr. Dreamy gets a little basketball... and other situations...) I enjoy the series, all but Meredith's Grey's horrible BOTOX job, it is absolutely pathetic, she looks horrendous, please! age "grey'sciously" and don't offend our eyes, that together with her horrible acting is just torture!!!!!!!!!!! Move one lets get rid f this horrible actress! and save this wonderful series!

Eastern Promises
(2007)
Worst movie I have seen in a long time.
27 February 2008
I can't remember the last time I saw a movie that was so bad. The ethnic nostalgia of immigrants, which in some way is well achieved (food, music, family, etc), is so strongly associated to mafia, corruption and outlaws that it reinforces racist, intolerant and denigrating stereotypes (i.e. the Greek Weeding revived this nostalgia in a completely different and positive way). The gory parts of the movie are sadistic, tasteless, and overall unnecessary. Performances are good, but the fact that Viggo (despite the fact that he is such a good looking man) is trying so hard to get away from Lord Aragorn roll, is not helping him, in this roll he keeps many qualities of the King of Middle earth: a man of few words, expressive gestures that make up for the few words, calm, never rash.... where is the change? Who is this actor that has been unable to find a decent roll after the trilogy? The movie does not bring anything good or some refreshing point of view to a topic treated endless times in many excellent movies (start with the Godfather) and in exchange for that you have to put up with the most disgusting machismo, bully, and bloody scenes (with no point). Stay away from this one!
Satanás
(2007)
Satanás insults my intelligence and my artistic taste, and my desire to be at awe in front of a work of art.

As a Colombian proud of my country, I find it depressing and pathetic that most Colombian films have nothing to show but the most horrible human atrocities without any artistic purpose to back them up. Both the author of the book, on which the movie is based, and the director, demonstrate their absolute inability to reach the public without using morbid and sickening situations where human compassion or any redeeming qualities are completely inexistent. On top of the fact that the book is based on a horrifying real story that took place in Bogotá 21 years ago, the author adds upsetting characters and situations (including one of the most horrible rape scenes I have ever seen, children murdered by their own mother, child molestation, kidnapping, robbing, prostitution, street and domestic violence, etc, etc, etc.) that are made up and not connected to the real story, and fulfill no artistic purpose. The director does not use one of the most interesting qualities of cinematography, which is its capacity to "suggest" ideas or emotions, without having to show "literally" every single detail of those horrible situations. There is no artistic complexity in this film and the connections between the characters are absolutely arbitrary. I am no baby for violent or grotesque films in fact I admire and respect many movies that are very violent (say Pulp Fiction for example) because there is more to it than just the crude situations. Satanás insults my intelligence and my artistic taste, and my desire to be at awe in front of a work of art.
