Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine [Sky High] hardly breathes the sweat and perfume that current movies are looking to pay tribute to. However, it is worth noting that the film is entertaining. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 Mar 20, 2023 Full Review William Tucker But Why Tho? A Geek Community Sky High is a movie that struggles to execute its promising ideas. Rated: 5/10 Jan 16, 2023 Full Review Johnny Loftus Decider Sky High hits all the right notes for a heist movie - the crew, the plan, the job, the getaway. Apr 12, 2021 Full Review Jonathon Wilson Ready Steady Cut Some okay performances and individual scenes help to earn Sky High some goodwill, but it's very difficult to recommend beyond that.

Marco L Esta película se presenta como un thriller de acción con aspiraciones de recuperar la esencia del cine quinqui, pero se queda a medio camino entre el estilo visual y la narrativa. Visualmente, parece más un videoclip que una película; las escenas se suceden con rapidez, pero carecen de la profundidad necesaria para sostener el interés emocional del espectador. Además, la música resulta repetitiva y poco inspirada, sin aportar valor al conjunto, y más bien distrae de lo que debería ser el núcleo de la historia. El guion no consigue convencer del todo. La trama, aunque tiene ciertos momentos de tensión, se siente poco creíble y demasiado dependiente de clichés. Los personajes no están lo suficientemente desarrollados como para generar empatía o conectar con sus motivaciones, dejando que la historia avance de forma superficial. Aunque se perciben destellos de ambición en algunos aspectos, como la dirección de las escenas de acción y los intentos de incorporar crítica social, el resultado final no termina de funcionar. La película se queda atrapada entre querer ser un entretenimiento contundente y ofrecer un mensaje más profundo, pero no logra destacar en ninguno de los dos aspectos. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/12/24 Full Review Vlastimila K You watch whole 2 hours on needles. Fast paced and smart. One of the best thrillers so far. Full of surprises. I Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/07/23 Full Review Carlos T Minha opinião: Um filme ao estilo espanhol. Onde temos um jovem que sonha em estar em lugares altos, mesmo que isso pudesse custar sua vida ou a prisão. Assim é Angel que é do subúrbio tem sua namorada Estrella e se envolve com a gang local, até conhecer o chefão Rogério e sua filha Sole. E vê nela a oportunidade de conseguir a ascensão mais rápido casando com ela, mas continuando com a Estrella. E assim se segue o filme com roubos, corridas, tiros. Até ele conseguir a ascensão e mudar de vida. Mas sua ambição ainda era grande e arma novas artimanhas. Porém chega uma hora que estão armando para eles. E o final é dramático, não vou falar para não dar expoiler. Neste ano de 2023 foi lançado uma série dando continuidade ao filme. Em resumo o filme foi razoável. Com atuações boas dos atores. Roteiro e enredo poderiam ter trabalho mais. Com mais profundidade em partes do filme. Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 7 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/28/23 Full Review Sushdjjxkskxnxs N I loved the movie since I understand Spanish the show looks more better and improved from the movie I hope the show gets renewed for s2 because this show based on this movie has potential it gets you hooked pretty easily and I love movies about heists and all that Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/20/23 Full Review Manuel T You can see since the very beginning how the movie will end, nevertheless it's quite fun to watch.
