Relatos salvajes

¡Así que fueron realmente historias salvajes! Después de un tiempo, volví a ir al cine sin conocer de antemano el contenido, solo me gustó mucho el póster y había escuchado comentarios positivos de festivales. Seis historias se desarrollan a un ritmo rápido, no aburren, entretienen o incluso sorprenden un poco. Tres de ellas son excelentes y tres son sobresalientes: la historia en el avión, el accidente automovilístico y la boda. Está bien que la historia de la boda fuera la última en orden. Y el español es realmente un idioma hermoso... (09.10.2014)

Los relatos «Audi vs redneck» y «zrazená tehotná» son magistrales - el primero por su ambientación e imaginación formal, el segundo por los diálogos y el remate asesino de una situación ya súper agudizada. La escena inicial previa a los créditos también es genial, con una transición inolvidable al título de la película. Los demás relatos son buenos, solo el último podría haber sido más corto, por momentos se hunde innecesariamente. En su conjunto, inconsistente emocional y formalmente, pero siempre lo suficientemente divertido. Por fin alguien retrató acertadamente nuestras ansiedades sociales diarias y desacuerdos con el sistema. (23.07.2014)

Probably the best movie entertainment of the year so far. Six stories packed black humour (and surprisingly brutal at times) with the common theme of the exasperation and the rage of ordinary people in ordinary situations that lead to situations that are not at all ordinary. The stories are uniform in terms of quality – of course, there are some that I liked less than others (the best for me were, redneck, the bomber engineer and the ruined wedding), but I wouldn’t say any of them is a significant drop in quality. If I had to complain about anything, is that some of the twists and turns were predictable a bit earlier than they should. A point less for that, but highly recommended nonetheless. (25.09.2014)

I didn’t really know what to expect from Wild Tales. A movie consisting of short stories usually has some interesting parts and some not so. But this movie has executed it perfectly. In my opinion, not one of those six short stories was mediocre, let alone bad. Some were prefect and some were “only” great. After I watched this movie, I realized that I have never watched a short-story movie that would already make me excited to see another story right after I’ve finished one, but Wild Tales have managed to do this with zero problems and won me over with each story. I liked the one where the two guys beat each other up by that bridge the most. I watched this for the Challenge Tour 2015. (09.04.2015)

The calculated push for mischievous points forces the viewer to not take the creative effort too seriously. That’s quite a shame, considering that morally I only liked the engineering odyssey and that the wedding revelry offered everything that its predecessors didn't, i.e., above all, a twisted merry-go-round of absurdity that presents those cynical life messages with utter sovereignty and ease, as if life itself had written them. I can't help but think that the filmmakers were capable of more. (29.12.2014)
