Vivancos 3 (2002) User Reviews

Avoid this film

[cainita · 1/10 · 8 June 2002]

If you like good films, ¡avoid this stinky picture!. I really loved El Gran Wyoming performances in other films like El Florido Pensil or Alex de la Iglesia´s Muertos de Risa, but this cruel impersonation of Clint Eastwood´s Dirty Harry is a fake, a bad joke. I don´t like Leslie Nielsen. I don´t like Abrahams&Zucker movies. But, after seeing Vivancos, I started comparing Airplane! with The Magnificent Ambersons. The only things I enjoyed in Vivancos were Ana Galiena´s nipples and Galiardo´s paedophilia. But I´m not a model of sanity... The whole Vivancos is a bad milkshake, a crazy Abbot and Costello meet Torrente experiment. All the 'amiguetes'´ tribe will try to persuade you. They will tell you that it´s black comedy. No. It´s black and thick pooh. Believe me. The end is near. Spare yourself this nightmare. Remember that I tried to warn you.

Definitely great

First of all, if you don't like Leslie Nielsen movies, you'd better avoid Vivancos III. But if you like them, Vivancos is a must-see film. That's ok, it's not the best film ever and neither the best comedy ever, but it makes you laugh and does not pretend anything else. The plot is maybe a little weak, but the actors are great (each one in his role) and most of the gags are really funny. Even though the critics say this is a horrible film, give it an opportunity. It's maybe the funniest film I've seen lately and it really deserves to be watched.

And by the way, please excuse my poor English.

One of the best silly funny movies of all time

I love this movie. I have watched it three times so far and will probably watch it a good few more times. El Gran Wyoming is very funny in this and other movies I've seen him in. Every time I watch it I spot more stuff in the background. Lots of good visual jokes like the Wanted poster of ETA members all wearing balaclavas. There is really weird and wonderful stuff going on while the main actors do their bit. That's why it's definitely a film that pays for re-watching. Spain has a good line in over the top comedies. It's a bit similar to Torrente which I also like. I find it hilarious and a totally painless way to learn Spanish. Definitely not for those who like their movies politically correct.
