VITALII H @freakynickison Oct 26 Pretty plain und simple. Love triangle turned into threesome turned into nothing with the crazy ex involved. I really hoped to find a "Eat, Pray, Love" kinda movie especially when I saw Javier Bardem but I was very disappointed to find out that this is the only simularity these movies have. I decided to watch it because I'm preparing for my upcoming lil vacay in Barcelona and also because of the cast but I got so bored watching that almost forgot why chose this movie ... It's that movie that you put on and fall asleep to. If you saw it and you liked it then good for you because I wish I enjoyed it us much... Maybe I just didn't get it but maybe there was not much to get. See more Daniel M @MazzaQuePasa Sep 28 This was definitely the most non traditional love story I’ve ever seen. You just never knew what would happen next and I appreciated the story for that. Great story and a great cast as well. See more Design B @honeybee86 Sep 2 Vicky Cristina Barcelona feels less like a genuine story set in Spain and more like a glossy travel brochure through the eyes of a wealthy tourist. Instead of showing the grit and complexity of real life, the film offers a caramel-coated fantasy version of the country, complete with glitzy villas, endless wine-sipping, and art talk that sounds more like Woody Allen’s cocktail-party musings than anything grounded in reality. Nearly every character is reduced to a mouthpiece for Allen’s pseudo-intellectual observations, speaking and moving with his trademark mannerisms—making the film feel less like a story and more like Allen in conversation with himself. The dialogue, particularly among the female characters, comes off as contrived, almost like Allen’s projection of what women must think and talk about. The Spanish characters, most notably the passionate artist and his tempestuous ex-wife, are written as broad clichés rather than fully realized people. Their exaggerated behavior borders on caricature, and what could have been layered portraits of cultural and personal conflict instead devolves into stereotypes. In the end, Vicky Cristina Barcelona is beautiful to look at, but its shallow worldview and hollow characters make it more an advertisement for sun-soaked escapism than a film with substance.

Sort of a strange story about 2 girls traveling in Barcelona, one's single and the other is engaged and them both falling for a Spanish artist who has a messy past with his ex-wife. Penelope Cruz is pretty funny as the crazy ex. Like the setting in Barcelona. Vicky is kind of funny initially when she's trashing Juan Antonio. Decent watch, no need to rewatch. 2/5 rewatch See more thiago s @Thiagostone Feb 27 Filme mais ou menos, o roteiro é fraco, o elenco deu uma ajudada com esses romances, mas a história não foi interessante e as cenas não ajudaram a melhorar o filme.
