Audience Member "Heaven and hell are the same place." Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Pensaba que era una denuncia mas fuerte sobre Guantanamo pero es mas acerca de la confusion mental que sufre el personaje que se pone en el lugar de los reos sin serlo. El recurso de los flasbacks y los pensamientos de Ali son un poco cansinos, aunque muchas de las escenas en camara lenta logran cierto encanto. Lo mejor fueron las imagenes de la Habana con unos filtros de color muy bonitos. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Guantanamero (Arritmia) is an independent foreign film that opens the eyes of the viewer to the true human psychological damage that has been carried out in Guantanamo Bay, not just for the prisoners, but for the interrogators as well. This film has the most heart of any film I have seen in the past year. It has a purpose, even if that purpose is completely raw. It does not, however, lack in the entertainment department. The cultural impacts on the story, the cinematography, the music, the random dance numbers... are amazing. Once again, I must stress not only is this a foreign flick, it is also independent. Take it for what it is, not what it could be. A common complaint that many have with this film is the ending. People do not understand it, which is why it suffers an incredibly low score. Without giving away the movie, all I can say is put yourself in the shoes of this man, and the manipulation of the psyche through the hardships that were faced and the decisions that were made. People say that the first and second acts of the film were thought provoking, but with an understanding of the third act, Guantanamero was beautifully tied together. I highly suggest everyone with a mature mind to see this. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member It definitely is a thought provoking movie, at least till the end. I don't really understood what that was all about.... So if anyone has any good interpretations, you're welcome to write me. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member How can't this movie even have a poster? is just sublime, the changes between dreams and reality is surreal and talks about that jail of shit that are going to close finally. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Uh....thought provoking to say the least. I have no idea what was fantasy and what was reality. It boggled my mind.
