      Audience Member Just watched it for the second time. It's a well made conventional love story, but, set in Spain's Siglo de Oro, the story of part of the life of one of literature's greats. Pretty accurate historically. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Lope is a movie with a great cast and ambience placed in the golden age of the Spanish literature. However, it commits two important mistakes that share with another great production like "Alatriste". First, the story modifies substantiatly the real biography of the main character, trying to make the plot easier while mixing several episodes of his life. It doesn't work. Second, the main character is performed by an Argentinian actor that doesn't speak a standard Spanish from Spain, in contrast with the rest of the cast. That makes the most important part of the film not credible. Maybe this second mistake is not so important for the international audience but, for the Spanish one, which I assume is the main target, makes the film a disaster. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Hay varias escenas que no hay quien se las crea Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Muy buena producción. Me parece una reconstrucción interesante de la España del Siglo de Oro, especialmente en lo que se refiere al teatro, si lo comparamos con películas como "Shakespeare in love". Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Se han gastado una pasta en decorados. Esa parte está muy bien. Pero, sinceramente, no me gusta nada la dirección de los actores. Lope suena forzado prácticamente toda la película. Aunque la historia no está mal y la han sabido llevar con ritmo. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Um bom filme europeu, que conta a hitória de uma grande poeta/escritor Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
