Hola comunidad! como fanática de los programas de supervivencia quiero ir creando estos post dedicados a ¨Boys II Planet¨ este programa en donde una gran cantidad de chicos va cumpliendo prueba tras prueba para poder lograr un objetivo: Quedas dentro del grupo debut. Por el momento voy a dar mi opinión obre las audiciones que recuerdo (haya sido por mal o por bien) y les iré contando un poco mi opinión acerca de cada una de ellas
Hello community! As a fan of survival shows, I want to start creating these posts dedicated to “Boys II Planet,” a show where a large number of boys go through test after test to achieve one goal: to remain in the debut group. For now, I'm going to give my opinion on the auditions I remember (whether good or bad) and I'll tell you a little bit about my opinion on each one.
Muy buena performance, pero por el momento pienso que son mejore bailarines que cantantes
Very good performance, but at the moment I think they are better dancers than singers.
___
Son adorables y sus voces bastante estables, pienso que tienen mucho potencial
They are adorable and their voices are quite stable. I think they have a lot of potential.

Me conmovió mucho su historia, los 3 son muy talentosos pero no estoy muy de acuerdo con la opinión de los jueces, pienso que merecen más reconocimiento.
I was very moved by their story. All three are very talented, but I don't really agree with the judges' opinion. I think they deserve more recognition.
Esta audición fue una gran sorpresa para mi, ambos tiene un vocal bastante bueno y son excelente bailarines, hubo un pequeño problema de vestuario pero no permitieron que eso los distrajera, me agrada este par como dúo y sobre todo como amigos
This audition was a big surprise for me. They both have pretty good voices and are excellent dancers. There was a small wardrobe malfunction, but they didn't let that distract them. I like this pair as a duo and especially as friends.
___
Sin duda una audición que no voy a olvidar, al decir que venía de Daegu me hizo pensar en todos los grandes talentos que vienen de ahí, pero al momento de comenzar la audición me llevé una gran sorpresa... y estoy segura de que los jueces también
It was definitely an audition I won't forget. When he said he was from Daegu, it made me think of all the great talents that come from there, but when the audition started, I was really surprised... and I'm sure the judges were too.

No me esperaba que este año aceptaran nuevamente a un actor de bl, pero bueno el año pasado les resultó, el chico es bastante bueno y sin duda cuando tenga tiempo veré ese bl drama, lo que no entiendo es que hace ahí si hasta donde sé es integrante del grupo WEI
I didn't expect them to accept another BL actor this year, but hey, it worked out for them last year. The guy is pretty good, and I'll definitely watch that BL drama when I have time. What I don't understand is what he's doing there, since as far as I know, he's a member of the group WEI.
___
Me encantó que cantaran una canción de un grupo femenino y la lucieron totalmente a su estilo, ambos son muy talentosos, espero ver más de ellos.
I loved that they sang a song by a girl group and totally rocked it in their own style. They are both very talented, and I hope to see more from them.
___
Mi favorito fue el líder, espero que duré mucho en el programa y si es posible que debute, en general todos lo hicieron muy bien
My favorite was the leader. I hope he lasts a long time on the show and, if possible, makes his debut. Overall, everyone did very well.

No se hasta cuando veo a Harry en programas de supervivencia. por favor que ese ser este en un grupo tranquilo ya, tiene mucho talento, en especial es un bailarín increíble y tiene una gran presencia
I don't know how long I can watch Harry on survival shows. Please put him in a calm group already. He's very talented, especially as an incredible dancer, and he has a great presence.

Esta audición de verdad me dejó sin palabras, no esperaba para nada ver a Yumeki en un programa como este, pero al final del día es lo que él quiere y pienso que se está esforzando mucho, honestamente no pienso que sea el mejor cantante, pero si continúa practicando como hasta ahora podría llegar muy lejos, sabemos que es un bailarín y COREOGRAFO excelente además de que tiene mucha presencia escénica, si mejora su vocal podría convertirse en un integrante clave para cualquier grupo
This audition really left me speechless. I didn't expect to see Yumeki on a show like this at all, but at the end of the day, it's what he wants, and I think he's working really hard. Honestly, I don't think he's the best singer, but if he keeps practicing like he has been, he could go far. We know he's an excellent dancer and choreographer, and he has great stage presence. If he improves his vocals, he could become a key member of any group.
Hola amigos.
Recientemente ví la película de Disney Lilo y Stitch, este par se conoce por sus travesuras y aventuras de sus dibujos animados transmitidas en la televisión desde hace varios años.
Hello, friends.
I recently watched the Disney movie Lilo & Stitch. This pair is known for their mischief and adventures in the cartoons that have been broadcast on television for several years.
La base de la historia es la familia sabemos que cada familia tiene sus propias realidades en éste caso Nani está tratando de poder hacerse cargo de Lilo pese a la perdida de sus padres ellas reciben constante supervisión de una visitadora social por otro lado Lilo siente la necesidad de tener un buen amigo por lo tanto conoce a Stitch y comienzan sus aventuras y travesuras.
The basis of the story is the family. We know that every family has its own realities. In this case, Nani is trying to take care of Lilo despite the loss of her parents. They receive constant supervision from a social worker. On the other hand, Lilo feels the need to have a good friend, so she meets Stitch, and their adventures and mischief begin.
Un poco de los personajes./A little bit about the characters.
Se trata de Lilo una niña de 6 años que vive con su hermana Nani en la isla de Hawai, está niña le ha tocado ser independiente en algunos sentidos al comienzo de la película se nota como ella va sin compañía a la playa e incluso a su clase de Ula; Lilo es una niña que no tiene amigos e incluso sus compañeras de Ula le hacen Bullying.
Lilo is a 6-year-old girl who lives with her sister Nani on the island of Hawaii. She has had to be independent in some ways. At the beginning of the film, we see how she goes to the beach and even to her Ula class alone. Lilo is a girl who has no friends, and her classmates at Ula even bully her.
Stitch es 626 un experimento genético ilegal de origen extraterrestre de color azul creado por el científico Jumba y este quiere mejorarlo o empeorarlo desea que sea una arma destructiva es por ello que la Gran Consejal decide enviar a Stitch al exilió pero Stitch logra escapar en una nave espacial y aterriza en la tierra.
Stitch is 626, an illegal genetic experiment of extraterrestrial origin, blue in color, created by the scientist Jumba, who wants to improve or worsen him, wanting him to be a destructive weapon. That is why the Grand Council decides to send Stitch into exile, but Stitch manages to escape in a spaceship and lands on Earth.

Hace mucho tiempo que veía los dibujos animados de Lilo y Stitch por lo que no recuerdo todos los personajes con respecto a Jumba quien en los dibujos animados vive en la tierra con stitch en la película este personaje tiene una mente perturbada lo que lo convierte en un científico con malas intenciones que viaja a la tierra junto a Peakley para atrapar a Stitch , en el caso de Nani en la película es físicamente más sofisticada y en lo que respecta a Gantu en la película ese personaje no está presente.
I watched the Lilo and Stitch cartoons a long time ago, so I don't remember all the characters. Jumba, who lives on Earth with Stitch in the cartoons, is a disturbed character in the movie, which makes him a scientist with bad intentions who travels to Earth with Peakley to catch Stitch. In the movie, Nani is physically more sophisticated, and as for Gantu, that character is not present in the movie.
Fuente
Opinión.
Aunque el mensaje de esta película tiene que ver con la familia en éste caso Nani se va a estudiar biología marina y Lilo queda al cuidado de la vecina Tutu acompañada del agente de la CIA Cobra y de Peakley para garantizar que Stitch no sea una amenaza en la tierra creo que da paso a una continuidad para que Jumba pueda hacerse bueno y Nani regrese a estar con Lilo y sean la familia completa.
Por otro lado me parece una película agradable para toda lá familia; me puso un poco en suspenso las travesuras de Lilo y Stitch en cuanto al ambiente me parece muy lindo todo lo que se muestra de la isla de Hawai.
Opinion.
Although the message of this film has to do with family, in this case Nani leaves to study marine biology and Lilo is left in the care of her neighbor Tutu, accompanied by CIA agents Cobra and Peakley to ensure that Stitch is not a threat on Earth. I think this sets the stage for Jumba to become good and Nani to return to be with Lilo and for the family to be complete.
On the other hand, I think it's a pleasant film for the whole family; Lilo and Stitch's antics kept me in suspense, and I think the setting is very beautiful, with everything that is shown of the island of Hawaii.
Hey, community! I'm so happy to be back here. A few days ago, I watched Happy Gilmore 2 (which is available on Netflix) because my partner wanted to see it, so we got right on it. I'll be honest: I didn't see Happy Gilmore, so I came to this sequel without knowing who Happy was, but that didn't stop me from enjoying Happy Gilmore 2 as a comedy with funny moments, some drama, and a protagonist who, although disastrous, has charisma.
¿Que tal comunidad? Estoy muy contenta de pasarme de nuevo por aquí, hace unos días vi Happy Gilmore 2 (que esta disponible en Netflix) y mi pareja quería verla, así que, nos pusimos en ello. Voy a ser honesta: no vi Happy Gilmore, así que llegué a esta secuela sin saber quién era Happy, pero eso no me impidió disfrutar Happy Gilmore 2 como una comedia con momentos divertidos, algo de drama y un protagonista que, aunque desastroso, tiene carisma.
The film follows Happy, a man who was once famous in the world of golf but is now going through a pretty dark period in his life. He has a teenage daughter who wants to study dance in Paris, and he, with financial and emotional problems, decides to return to golf to help her. What follows is a mix of tournaments, confrontations with influencers, and many absurd moments that made me laugh. What I liked most was Adam Sandler's performance. I've never been a fan of his, but here he manages to portray a broken man with a good heart who is trying to do the right thing. There are scenes where you can see the emotional wear and tear on the character, and I found that very human. I also liked the relationship with his daughter, played by Sunny Sandler.
La película sigue a Happy, un hombre que alguna vez fue famoso en el mundo del golf, pero que ahora está en una etapa bastante oscura de su vida. Tiene una hija adolescente que quiere estudiar danza en París, y él, con problemas económicos y emocionales, decide volver al golf para ayudarla. Lo que sigue es una mezcla de torneos, enfrentamientos con influencers, y muchos momentos absurdos que me hicieron reír. Lo que más me gustó fue la actuación de Adam Sandler. Nunca he sido fan suya, pero aquí logra mostrar a un hombre roto, con buen corazón, que intenta hacer lo correcto. Hay escenas donde se nota el desgaste emocional del personaje, y eso me pareció muy humano. También me gustó la relación con su hija, interpretada por Sunny Sandler.
Visually, the film is fine. It has some rather exaggerated golf scenes, but that's part of its charm. It's not an elegant or subtle comedy, but it doesn't pretend to be. It's loud, physical, and sometimes a little clumsy. I could tell that it was meant to pay tribute to several golfers who appear in the film, which I really liked.
Visualmente, la película está bien. Tiene escenas de golf bastante exageradas, pero eso es parte del encanto. No es una comedia elegante ni sutil, pero tampoco pretende serlo. Es ruidosa, física, y a veces un poco torpe. Pude notar un poco que se quiso homenajear a varios golfistas que aparecen en la película, cosa que me gustó mucho.
If you're looking for a lighthearted comedy with an endearing protagonist and don't mind not understanding all the inside jokes, you don't need to have seen the first one to connect with the story, although you'd probably enjoy it more if you did. For me, it was a pleasant surprise, and maybe now I'll be encouraged to watch the original. I hope you enjoyed today's post. For now, I'll say goodbye. Thank you very much for reading, and see you later in another post ❤️
Si estás buscando una comedia ligera con un protagonista entrañable y no te importa no entender todos los chistes internos. No necesitas haber visto la primera para conectar con la historia, aunque probablemente disfrutarías más si lo hicieras. Para mí, fue una sorpresa agradable, y quizás ahora sí me anime a ver la original. Espero que les haya gustado el post de hoy, yo por ahora me despido, muchas gracias por leerme y nos vemos luego en otro post ❤️
Hello, cinema fans. Let's dive into one of those science fiction genre holes that aren't often seen in this industry. A variation on the dystopian subgenre we've covered before, but with a big difference that makes us think about reality as we know it. Let's talk about a film that is considered a case study because of how excellent it is and that even today gives us a lot to talk about, in addition to being quite entertaining. Written and co-produced by Andrew Niccol, The Truman Show is directed by Peter Weir. It stars by Jim Carrey, Laura Linney, Ed Harris, Noah Emmerich, Natasha McElhone, among others. Discover one of the best films you have ever seen or will ever see in your entire life.
SPANISH VERSION
Hola, fanáticos del cine. Adentrémonos a uno de esos agujeros del género de la ciencia ficción que no muchas veces se ven en esta industria. Una variación del subgénero distópico que ya hemos tratado antes, pero con una gran diferencia que nos pone a pensar sobre la realidad tal y como la conocemos. Hablemos de una cinta que es considerada un caso de estudio por lo excelente que es y que aún al día de hoy da mucho de qué hablar, además de que entretiene bastante. Escrita y coproducida por Andrew Niccol, The Truman Show está dirigida por Peter Weir. Cuenta con el protagonismo de Jim Carrey, Laura Linney, Ed Harris, Noah Emmerich, Natasha McElhone, entre otros. Conoce una de las mejores películas que has visto o que seguramente verás en toda tu vida.
The film begins with a person looking directly at the screen while talking to us about the falseness of the world of cinema and entertainment. He then introduces us to Truman Burbank, the star of the famous series/reality show known as The Truman Show. He tells us that Truman is 100% authentic and that everything we see in this show is completely real. We then see Truman getting ready for a new day, but not before performing his usual routine in front of the bathroom mirror as if it were a dramatic play. His life is ordinary, both at work and at home. However, some strange things begin to happen around him, such as the fall of one of those huge lighting rigs or the reappearance of his supposedly deceased father.
SPANISH VERSION
Trama
La película inicia con una persona mirándonos directamente a la pantalla mientras nos habla sobre la falsedad que hay en el mundo del cine y el espectáculo. Posteriormente, nos presenta a Truman Burbank, protagonista de la famosa serie/reality conocida como The Truman Show. Nos dice que él es 100% auténtico y que todo lo que vemos en este show es completamente real. Acto seguido vemos a Truman prepararse para un nuevo día, no sin antes hacer su espectáculo como siempre frente al espejo de su baño como si de una obra dramática se tratara. Su vida es común y corriente tanto en su trabajo como en su hogar. Sin embargo, algunas cosas extrañas empiezan a ocurrir a su alrededor, como es el caso de la caída de uno de esos enormes equipos de luces o la reaparición de su supuesto padre fallecido.
To be honest, even though I consider myself a big fan of Jim Carrey, I could barely remember seeing this movie even a couple of times in my life. The works he participated in that I have mostly seen and that have become most popular over the last few decades were comedies. In this case, I thought for a while that it was just another comedy film that didn't become very well known... until my frequent contact with the internet in recent years made me change my mind. My perception of The Truman Show has changed quite a bit recently, and I'm not just saying that because of the many edits I've seen on social media platforms like TikTok. But it would never have occurred to me that this film is also considered a science fiction gem.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, what surely many of you reading this would not have thought either is that The Truman Show is a work of science fiction, more specifically of the dystopian subgenre. But as you can see, it is not just any dystopian film about a post-apocalyptic future or anything like that. Rather, it is more of a dystopian vision of reality itself, something that goes beyond a simple futuristic story. That's why the film also has a touch of drama and suspense, more specifically psychological, as it makes us think about complex issues such as the simulation of reality. Of course, it has its comical and romantic touch, as we see the well-known Jim Carrey playing his typical satirical and funny character, although much better constructed than any other role he has played.
SPANISH VERSION
Si les soy honesto, por muy fan de Jim Carrey que me considere, apenas pude recordar haber visto esta película siquiera un par de veces en mi vida. Los trabajos en los que participó que mayormente he visto y más se han popularizado a lo largo de estas últimas décadas fueron los de comedia. En este caso, pensé por un tiempo que era una cinta más de comedia que no llegó a ser tan conocida… hasta que mi contacto frecuente con el internet en estos últimos años me hicieron cambiar de opinión. Mi percepción sobre The Truman Show ha cambiado bastante recientemente y no solo lo digo por el montón de edits que he visto en redes sociales como TikTok. Pero nunca se me hubiera ocurrido pensar que esta cinta sea considerada también como una joya de la ciencia ficción.
Si señores, lo que seguramente a muchos de los que me leen tampoco se les hubiera ocurrido es que The Truman Show es una obra de ciencia ficción, más en específico del subgénero distópico. Pero como ven, no es cualquier cinta distópica de un futuro post-apocalíptico ni nada parecido. Sino que es más una visión distópica de la realidad misma, algo que va más allá de una simple historia futurista. Es por eso que la cinta también tiene su toque de drama y suspenso, más en específico psicológico ya que nos pone a pensar sobre temas complejos como la simulación de la realidad. Claro está, tiene su toque cómico y romántico, ya que vemos al conocido Jim Carrey hacer su típico personaje satírico y divertido, aunque muchísimo mejor construido que cualquier otro papel que haya hecho.
To do this, let's go back to the main plot: a person who has lived behind the cameras his entire life, in a show that airs 24/7 and is watched worldwide by millions of people. The curious thing about all this is that Truman Burbank, the star of this show, has no idea that he is being recorded and watched by thousands of cameras in countless locations. His daily life is normal and even predictable, without many changes and with many unfamiliar faces who are there to play their roles. All of this takes place inside a huge dome that has been built on the outskirts of Los Angeles. Everything is going well... until something falls from the sky. Truman picks up the lighting equipment with no idea what it is. But not only that, the next day he finds his father dressed as a beggar.
The strangeness does not end there, but just when Truman recognizes him, two people appear and kidnap the man, taking him away without our protagonist being able to do anything. It is clear that something strange is happening, and while the star of the show thinks about it, he remembers his past when he was in college and met a blue-eyed girl with whom he was instantly attracted. However, this person turns out to be just an "extra", someone who is only there and is not allowed to approach Truman. Nevertheless, this does not prevent them from meeting again and again until they finally escape and, on the beach, she tries to tell him the whole truth until she is taken away at the end. From there, he begins to develop a desire to go to Fiji, supposedly the place where she went.
SPANISH VERSION
Para esto, volvamos a hablar de su trama principal: una persona que ha vivido tras las cámaras toda su vida, en un show que se transmite 24/7 y es visto a nivel mundial por millones de personas. Lo curioso de todo esto es que Truman Burbank, la estrella de este show, no tiene ni idea de que está siendo grabado y visto por miles de cámaras en innumerables ubicaciones. Su vida cotidiana es normal y hasta predecible, sin tantos cambios y muchas caras poco conocidas que están para hacer sus papeles. Todo esto sucede dentro de un enorme domo que se ha construido en las afueras de Los Ángeles. Todo va bien… hasta que algo cae del cielo. Truman recoge ese equipo de luces sin idea de lo que es. Pero no solo eso, sino que al día siguiente se encuentra con su padre vestido de pordiosero.
Lo extraño no termina aquí, sino que justo cuando Truman lo reconoce aparecen dos personas y raptan al señor para llevárselo del sitio sin que nuestro protagonista pueda hacer algo. Queda claro que algo raro está sucediendo y mientras la estrella del show piensa en eso recuerda su pasado cuando iba a la universidad y conoció a una chica de ojos azules con quien se sintió atraído al instante. Sin embargo, esta persona resulta ser solo un “extra”, alguien que solo está ahí nomás y que no tiene permitido acercarse a Truman. Sin embargo, esto no evita que ambos se reencuentren una y otra vez hasta que luego escapan y, en la playa, ella intenta contarle toda la verdad hasta que se la llevan al final. A partir de allí empieza a desarrollar un deseo de ir a Fiji, supuestamente al lugar donde ella se fue.
Throughout the film, we not only see an endless sequence of patterns and events that occur around Truman's life, but we also learn a lot about our star and his dreams of traveling the world and going beyond the small town where he grew up and lived his entire life. We see that from the beginning, he seems restless, nervous about wanting to experience something new or go to the other side of the world. However, he has a problem, a trauma that has tormented him since childhood: the ocean. This is because his father (supposedly) drowned one stormy day when they went fishing. This phobia limits him greatly, since practically half of his surroundings are water. But even so, his desire to escape does not end there.
It's fantastic to see our funny Jim Carrey play a much more complex role than usual. The idea of pretending to be a television star who believes he is living a reality that is actually simulated inside a giant dome is something that would drive more than one person crazy (and I think it affected him too until recently). At first, we see the character acting in a comical yet pleasant way, very much in keeping with Jim's style. But then we see how everything evolves when he begins to see what is happening around him, such as the changes, mistakes, and flaws in this city. They do not allow him to go beyond where he has gone, no matter how hard he tries. For a moment, we even see him behaving like a lunatic, acting frantically and unexpectedly, all in order to see how those around him react and to confirm that everything he knows is not what he believed it to be his whole life.
SPANISH VERSION
A lo largo de la película no solo podemos notar una interminable secuencia de patrones y sucesos que ocurren alrededor de la vida de Truman, sino que también conocemos bastante de nuestra estrella y sus sueños de viajar por el mundo e ir más allá de esa pequeña ciudad en la que creció y vivió toda su vida. Vemos que desde el principio lo notamos algo inquieto, nervioso por querer experimentar algo nuevo o ir al otro lado del mundo. Sin embargo, tiene un problema, un trauma que desde pequeño lo ha atormentado y es el océano. Esto debido a que su padre (supuestamente) murió ahogado un día de tormenta que fueron de pesca. Esta fobia que tiene lo limita bastante ya que prácticamente la mitad de lo que lo rodea es agua. Pero aún así, su deseo de querer escapar no se acaba allí.
Es fantástico ver a nuestro gracioso Jim Carrey interpretar un papel mucho más complejo de lo normal. La idea de hacerse pasar por una estrella de televisión que cree vivir una realidad que realmente es simulada dentro de un domo gigante es algo que volvería loco a más de uno (y creo que hasta hace poco le afectó también). Al principio vemos que el personaje se desenvuelve de una forma cómica y a la vez agradable, muy acorde al estilo de Jim. Pero luego vemos cómo todo va evolucionando cuando empieza a ver lo que sucede a su alrededor como los cambios, los errores y las fallas que hay en esta ciudad. No le permiten ir más allá de donde ha ido sin importar lo mucho que lo intente. Por un momento incluso lo vemos comportarse como todo un lunático actuando de manera frenética e inesperada, todo con tal de ver cómo reacciona su alrededor y comprobar que todo lo que conoce no es lo que creyó que era toda su vida.
To a certain extent, we see him falling into one constant barrier after another that limits him from going beyond what he knows and escaping from this nightmare he is living. Thinking that everyone who knows him is behaving in such a predictable way just to please and entertain our star makes Truman realize that everything revolves around him. When we think it's all over with a forced attempt to close an unexpectedly dramatic event, we learn what it's like beyond the screens. Children, men, the elderly, families, neighbors, employees, people from all over the world have The Truman Show as their only means of entertainment. We also meet the man behind it all, Christof.
Honestly, I can't think of another example closer to reality than this film, really. It is now a fact that 99% of humanity is glued to a screen, which makes this late 90s film more of a prophecy come true than just a simple priceless gem of the film world (which it really is). Everything we see on our plasma TVs, computers, or smartphones is an endless list of commercials, shows, movies, and series that keep us entertained 24/7. This is what we see reflected in The Truman Show, with the sequences of the viewers and their reactions to everything I've told you so far and what ends up happening to our big star. Everything they do and everything they devote themselves to is for this great show that completely hypnotizes them.
SPANISH VERSION
Hasta cierto punto, lo vemos decaer en una constante barrera tras otra que lo limita a poder ir más allá de lo que conoce y escapar de esta pesadilla que está viviendo. Pensar también que todos los que lo conocen son gente que se comporta de una forma tan predecible solo para complacer y entretener a nuestra estrella hace que Truman se haga una idea de que todo gira a su alrededor. Cuando creemos que todo acabó con un intento forzado de cierre de un evento inesperadamente dramático, nos enteramos de cómo es todo más allá de las pantallas. Niños, hombres, ancianos, familias, vecinos, empleados, gente de todo el mundo tiene como su único medio de entretenimiento a The Truman Show. También conocemos al que está detrás de todo esto, Christof.
Sinceramente no encuentro otro ejemplo más cercano a la realidad que esta película, la verdad. Actualmente es un hecho que el 99% de la humanidad está pegada a una pantalla, lo cual hace que esta cinta de finales de los 90s sea más una profecía hecha realidad que solo una simple joya invaluable del mundo del cine (lo cual realmente es). Todo lo que vemos en nuestros televisores plasma, computadoras o smartphones son una interminable lista de anuncios comerciales, shows, películas y series que nos mantienen entretenidos 24/7. Esto es lo que vemos reflejado en The Truman Show, con las secuencias de los televidentes y sus reacciones a todo esto que les he contado hasta ahora y lo que termina ocurriendo con nuestra gran estrella. Todo lo que hacen y a lo que se dedican es para este gran show que los hipnotiza completamente.
Truman, on the other hand, is a perfect example of how many people feel about their lives. Sometimes we may think that we are living in a simulated reality, a constant routine, a sequence of events and actions that can become predictable, with few changes and nothing new to report. We may feel trapped in a giant dome that limits our lives and all our dreams and aspirations. The reality we live in may be much crueler than the wonderful life Truman has. But when we think about it differently, we realize that society itself is guided by lies, simulations, performances, and elaborate shows so that the powerful remain at the top and the rest just follow in their footsteps.
Without a doubt, the third and final act of this film is an example to follow for those of us who feel like Truman. Sometimes taking risks may be the best option we have to see change. Sometimes we have to go against the tide, even if it knocks us out of our boat a thousand times. Sometimes we feel suffocated by pressure, obligations, or outside opinions, but as long as we can breathe, we can also raise the sails and continue sailing on this simulated ocean. If we want to reach the top and achieve our dreams, we often have to be unpredictable and spontaneous. I'm not one to talk about these things, but without a doubt, The Truman Show not only entertains but also inspires quite a bit.
SPANISH VERSION
Truman es, por otro lado, un ejemplo perfectamente hecho de lo que mucha gente siente con sus vidas. A veces podemos pensar que estamos viviendo una realidad simulada, una rutina constante, una secuencia de sucesos y acciones que pueden llegar a ser hasta predecibles sin tantos cambios ni nada nuevo por contar. Podemos llegar a sentirnos encerrados en un domo gigante que nos limita la vida y todos nuestros sueños y aspiraciones. Dicha realidad que vivimos puede que sea muchísimo más cruel que la maravillosa vida que tiene Truman. Pero cuando lo pensamos de otra forma nos damos cuenta de que la sociedad misma se guía por mentiras, simulaciones, actuaciones y shows elaborados con tal de que los grandes sigan en la cima y el resto solo siga sus pasos.
Sin duda alguna, el tercer acto y final de esta película es un ejemplo a seguir para los que llegamos a sentirnos así como Truman. A veces lo arriesgado puede ser la mejor opción que tenemos para ver algún cambio. A veces hay que ir en contra de la corriente, a pesar de que esto nos derrumbe de nuestro bote una y mil veces. A veces nos sentimos ahogados por la presión, las obligaciones o las opiniones exteriores, pero siempre y cuando podamos respirar podemos también alzar las velas y seguir navegando en este océano simulado. Si queremos llegar a lo alto y conseguir realizar nuestros sueños tenemos que ser impredecibles y espontáneos muchas veces. No soy mucho de hablar de estas cosas, pero sin duda alguna The Truman Show no solo entretiene sino que inspira bastante.
Returning to the film, I think the perfect blend of drama, humor, and romance is one of its best features. The script is so well done that from beginning to end, we see how everything connects quite well. From Truman's dream of traveling to Fiji to the way he ends up saying goodbye to everyone before walking through the door. Everything we see in the more than hour and a half of film is a great story of love, drama, lies, and illusions. And speaking of lies, something I found ironic about this film is that at the beginning it talks about the falseness of actors and television commercials, when in the end everything Truman experienced in that dome was a complete simulation. Even the people ended up being actors paid to play a role.
This form of self-contradiction allows us to clearly identify who was wrong and who was right in this film. On the one hand, we have Christof, the creator of the show and director of the entire conglomerate that built all of this. Feeling like the owner of his life, our antagonist does everything possible to prevent the star of his show from escaping what he knows. On the other hand, we have Truman Burbank, the star and the man whom everyone saw being born and growing up. The show's success is thanks to him. But even so, Christof treats him like an object, like a position rather than an ordinary human being. While one pretends to be God, the other does everything to go against the grain and escape at the end of this nightmare called reality that he knows.
SPANISH VERSION
Volviendo a la película, considero que la mezcla perfecta de drama con humor y romance es de lo mejor. El guión está tan bien hecho que de principio a fin notamos cómo todo se conecta bastante bien. Desde el sueño de Truman por viajar a Fiji hasta la forma en la que termina despidiéndose de todos antes de cruzar la puerta. Todo lo que vemos en las más de hora y media de película es una grandiosa historia de amor, drama, mentiras e ilusiones. Y hablando de mentiras, algo que me pareció irónico de esta cinta es que al principio se habla de la falsedad de los actores y las propagandas de televisión cuando al final todo lo que vivió Truman en ese domo fue una completa simulación. Incluso las personas terminaron siendo actores pagados para hacer un papel nomás.
Esta forma de contradecirse a sí misma hace que podamos identificar claramente quién estuvo mal y quién no en esta película. Por un lado tenemos a Christof, el creador del show y director de todo el conglomerado que construyó todo esto. Sintiéndose el dueño de su vida, nuestro antagonista hace todo lo posible para que la estrella de su show no escape de lo que conoce. Por otro lado, tenemos a Truman Burbank, la estrella y el hombre que todo el mundo vio nacer y crecer. El éxito que tiene el show es gracias a él. Pero aún así, Christof lo trata como un objeto, como una posición en vez de a un ser humano común y corriente. Mientras uno simula ser dios, el otro hace todo para ir en contra de la corriente y escapar al final de esta pesadilla llamada realidad que conoce.
The ending is simply majestic. I say this not only because it is symbolically significant, but also because it ends in such an unpredictable, satisfying, and fascinating way that it is difficult to forget. The lesson is clear in this film, so there is no need to recount it from beginning to end and risk spoiling everything just to describe everything I think and feel about this masterpiece. The film itself has everything you need to start watching it and not stop until the end. Without a doubt, it is like a letter to the seventh art, to the best of cinema of the last century. While many of us probably got to know it thanks to Jim Carrey, in the end we stay for its story and how perfectly made it is.
Last but not least, let's talk about the audiovisual aspects of this film. Perfectly produced and with a very precise use of practical effects, music, and photography, it is clear that what we see up to this point is a perfect example of how to make a good film. Despite its age, it looks so good that it stands as a timeless gem. What I like most visually are the camera styles, more specifically the different positions and views they show us. This, together with the television sequences, gives you the feeling of watching a reality show. The advertising scenes we see also give a familiar feeling of watching television from that era. The sound effects are good, but the best thing, without a doubt, is the soundtrack. Especially with the ending, which is simply pure art. This is definitely a movie you have to see at least once in your life.
Personally, I give it a 10/10 rating in terms of the science fiction, drama, and comedy genres.
SPANISH VERSION
El final es simplemente majestuoso. No solo lo digo porque simbólicamente significa mucho, sino por cómo termina todo de una manera tan impredecible, tan satisfactoria y tan fascinante que es difícil olvidarlo. La lección es clara en esta película, así que no hace falta relatarla de inicio a fin con el riesgo de spoilear todo nomás para describir todo lo que pienso y siento acerca de esta obra maestra. La misma cinta en sí tiene todo lo que se necesita para que empieces a verla y no pares hasta el final. Sin duda alguna es como una carta al séptimo arte, a lo mejor del cine de este último siglo. Si bien muchos seguramente llegamos a conocerla gracias a Jim Carrey, al final nos quedamos por su historia y por lo perfectamente hecha que está.
Por último, pero no menos importante, hablemos del apartado audiovisual que tiene esta película. Perfectamente producida y con un uso muy exacto de los efectos prácticos, la música y la fotografía; está claro que hasta este punto lo que vemos es una muestra perfecta de cómo hacer una buena película. A pesar del tiempo que tiene, se ve tan bien que cumple con ser una joya atemporal. Lo que más me gusta visualmente son los estilos de cámaras, más en específico las distintas posiciones y vistas que nos muestran. Esto, junto con las secuencias de los televidentes le da esa sensación de estar viendo un reality show. Las escenas de publicidad que vemos también dan una sensación familiar de estar viendo la televisión de aquella época. Los efectos de sonido están bien, pero lo mejor, sin duda alguna, es la banda sonora. Sobre todo con lo que es el final, que simplemente es arte puro. Definitivamente, esta es una película que tienes que ver sí o sí al menos una vez en toda tu vida.
Personalmente, le doy una calificación de 10/10 en lo que respecta al género de ciencia ficción, drama y comedia.

Conocedor de Futbol y las MMA pero malo practicando deportes, me gusta las peliculas y series por eso ahora..."Soy critico de Cine". Viviendo en Venezuela
Los dinosaurios en el cine son sinónimo de éxito en la taquilla; desde el 2015, el reinicio o relanzamiento de la franquicia de "Jurassic Park" ha recaudado una excesiva cantidad de dinero, lo cual es inevitable que no se hagan más películas de manera consecutiva y justamente en este séptimo film (4.º en la franquicia de Jurassic World), "Jurassic World Rebirth", se hace notorio el positivo impacto en el público lo cual la ha convertido en la película que más ha recaudado mundialmente en los últimos meses; ahora esa buena cantidad de dinero que ha generado lamentablemente no es sinónimo de calidad en guion, actuación, ni mucho menos en dirección.
Dinosaurs in cinema are synonymous with box office success; since 2015, the reboot or relaunch of the Jurassic Park franchise has grossed an excessive amount of money, making it inevitable that more films will be made consecutively. In this seventh film (the fourth in the Jurassic World franchise), Jurassic World Rebirth, the positive impact on audiences is evident, making it the highest-grossing film worldwide in recent months. Unfortunately, the large amount of money it has generated is not synonymous with quality in terms of script, acting, or direction.
Está nueva película de "Jurassic World", trata de cumplir fielmente con el título de renacer; el uso de un prólogo es necesario para situar al espectador en que parte de la historia está y del cual sea el tema principal para esta nueva fase de la franquicia; esa práctica por parte de David Koepp, guionista no solo de este film, sino de "Jurassic Park", es lo que me ha parecido correcto porque de una manera rápida nos enseña aparte de los personajes principales así como son sus motivos en esta historia, algo que al final es parte del cliché de ese estilo de films, pero que son necesarios; hasta ahí todo bien, eso sí, nada original, pero en mi opinión fue todo correcto, ahora después de esa introducción de ese grupo de protagonistas es donde la historia se convierte en una serie de repeticiones, una producción con una profundidad nula en sus muchos personajes, con pasados y motivos nada convincentes lo cual los hacen aburridos y molestos.
La decisión de contar con Gareth Edwards en la dirección debió significar un plus para esta película; el tener al director de "Monsters" (2010) y "Godzilla" (2014), seguramente generó expectativas en los fans de la franquicia, pero lamentablemente ofreció lo que pienso es su peor trabajo hasta la fecha; está película no ofrece ninguna escena épica, no hay ninguna toma que te haga pensar que estás viendo la hermosura de una naturaleza muy salvaje y peligrosa, las escenas de acción no ofrecen nada relevante, no hay tensión, ni suspenso, son versiones pobres de lo que se ha visto anteriormente en la franquicia; a eso, anexo lo falso de las muchas escenografías y de los dinosaurios, es lamentable que esas criaturas se vean tan mal diseñadas, así con la poca originalidad de la criatura final, todo eso resta relevancia a la producción, siendo sin ninguna duda el mal uso del CGI, lo cual me sorprende, ya que está película tuvo un costo de 225 millones de dólares.
This new Jurassic World movie tries to live up to its title of rebirth; the use of a prologue is necessary to situate the viewer in the story and establish the main theme for this new phase of the franchise; This practice by David Koepp, screenwriter not only of this film but also of Jurassic Park, seems appropriate to me because it quickly introduces us to the main characters and their motives in this story, something that is ultimately part of the cliché of this type of film but is necessary. So far, so good, although nothing original, but in my opinion, it was all correct. Now, after that introduction of the group of protagonists, the story becomes a series of repetitions, a production with no depth in its many characters, with unconvincing pasts and motives, which makes them boring and annoying.
The decision to have Gareth Edwards direct should have been a plus for this film; having the director of Monsters (2010) and Godzilla (2014) surely generated expectations among fans of the franchise, but unfortunately, he delivered what I think is his worst work to date. This film offers no epic scenes, no shots that make you feel like you're witnessing the beauty of a wild and dangerous natural world. The action scenes offer nothing of note, there is no tension or suspense, they are poor versions of what we've seen before in the franchise. To that, I add the fakery of the many sets and dinosaurs. It's unfortunate that these creatures look so poorly designed, and with the lack of originality of the final creature, all of that detracts from the production, undoubtedly due to the misuse of CGI, which surprises me, since this film cost $225 million to make.
Con respecto a los personajes de esta historia, nuevamente repito del buen uso del prólogo porque provee una necesaria introducción y orientación de todo lo transcurrido entre "Dominion" y "Rebirth", pero también demuestra los necesarios motivos que impulsan los actos de "Zora Bennett", "Dr. Henry Loomis" y "Rupert Friend"; personaje que poseen como característica el ser predecibles, algo que en un principio no era ningún problema, pero su nulo desarrollo y lo nada relevantes hace que sean los peores protagonistas de la franquicia, no son creíbles en ningunos de sus actos y sus motivos, llenos completamente de clichés, al final son intrascendentes, no poseen liderazgo, no son divertidos, son en parte lo peor del film.
Regarding the characters in this story, I reiterate the value of the prologue because it provides a necessary introduction and orientation to everything that happened between "Dominion" and "Rebirth," but it also demonstrates the necessary motives that drive the actions of "Zora Bennett," "Dr. Henry Loomis," and "Rupert Friend"; These characters are predictable, which was not a problem at first, but their lack of development and irrelevance makes them the worst protagonists in the franchise. None of their actions or motives are credible; they are completely clichéd and ultimately inconsequential. They lack leadership, are not entertaining, and are, in part, the worst aspect of the film.
Jurassic World Rebirth no es un buen film, es la que menos emoción ofrece en toda la franquicia, es una producción nula de significado, ya que no tiene ningún sentido su historia, es algo que ya se ha visto y ese es uno de sus grandes problemas; creo que al usar el término "Renacer", esperaba que se ofreciera algo nuevo, relevante, pero este no es el caso, ya que se rehúsa tomas y escenas de otras películas que verdaderamente no es divertido acertar tantas referencias y es que usar la nostalgia en esta franquicia debería estar prohibido por lo todavía nuevo que es esta segunda fase dentro de la franquicia; ahora todo lo antes descrito importa muy poco porque cualquier crítica negativa hecha, sucumbe contra la recaudación que obtuvo este film y aunque no llegue a los 1000 millones de dólares, solamente el hecho de obtener más dinero que películas basadas en personajes de comics, es otro logro más para los dinosaurios y estoy seguro de que dentro de poco se confirmará una nueva secuela más de la cual tendré la esperanza de poder ver algo digno del primer film estrenado hace 32 años.
Jurassic World Rebirth is not a good film. It is the least exciting of the entire franchise, a production devoid of meaning, as its story makes no sense. It is something we have already seen, and that is one of its biggest problems. I think that by using the term "Rebirth," I expected something new and relevant to be offered, but this is not the case, as it rehashes shots and scenes from other films. It's really not fun to spot so many references, and using nostalgia in this franchise should be prohibited because this second phase within the franchise is still so new. Now, everything described above matters very little because any negative criticism made is overshadowed by the box office success of this film. Even if it doesn't reach $1 billion, the mere fact that it has made more money than films based on comic book characters is another achievement for the dinosaurs, and I am sure that a new sequel will soon be confirmed, which I hope will be worthy of the first film released 32 years ago.
After watching The Woman King, I only asked myself a question. I wondered why I haven’t watched the movie since its release.
Today, I was scrolling through Netflix and found a movie that has gotten so much hype. I only decided to give it a try but I got stuck watching the movie.
The Woman King is a 2022 American historical adventure movie that portrays the lives of the Dahomeys, the Oyo Empire and the Agojie in the 17th to 19th centuries.
After General Nanisca, the leader of all female warriors liberates some women abducted by slavers from the Oyo Empire, King Ghezo got annoyed and prepared for war with the Oyo people.
Gradually, Nanisca began to train new set of women to join the Agojie, (the military regiment of Dahomey kingdom), Nanisca met Nawi, a lady who was given to the King as a gift by her father but decides to be an Agojie because she doesn’t want men in her life.
Along the line, Nawi encounters Malik and they both became friends. One night when she sneaks out with Malik, she learned that the Oyo’s are planning to attack and she ran to General Nanisca to inform her but instead, they both talked about something else.
Nanisca revealed how she got raped many years ago and had a baby and gave her a mark on her left hand.
Surprisingly, that baby was Nawi and they both reunited as mother and daughter.
After a successful attack on the Oyo Empire, Nanisca kills Oba and she was crowned the “Woman King” despite disobeying the King’s order.
I’ve always been interested in knowing what must have transpired between the Oyo Empire and the Dahomey and after watching the movie, this helped to shed more light on the whole issue.
This tells us how important slave trade used to be. It was like the main trade of the Oyo Empire and that’s why they go to smaller villages to wage war against them, abduct their citizens and use them as slaves. What a movie that tells history!
Another thing that makes the movie interesting was the twist of the story. I learned that Agojie’s are not meant to love a man nor have a child but what about Generak Nanisca? Who will ever know that she has given birth to a child? No one!
That’s why sometimes, the rule affects those who make the law or the leaders.
A scene? I’ll never forget the scene that made me cry. I cried when Igozie died. Sometimes, I feel she shouldn’t have tried to save Nawi.
She only went back to save Nawi when she got caught and instead, Igozie herself was shot. Maybe if she didn’t try to help, she must have made it but General Nanisca will feel a forever pain.
For the best actor who has a wonderful performance, I’ll still give it all to Lashana Lynch who played the role of Igozie. I know every other person tried their best including Viola Davis who played the role of General Nanisca. Lashana Lynch really looked like an Agojie. She was a perfect example.
The way she walked, talked and did every other thing felt like a real warrior. Was she ever a warrior or how long has she been training for it? It was so real and if I can give an award, she deserves the best actor in the movie.
How come it was a movie? The fights and wars looked very real. For some moment, I forgot that I was watching a movie. All I had in my head was the Oyo Empire and Dahomey fighting. It was a great watch time.
Because of the realness of this movie, it will have 9.5/10. I’m happy I finally watched it. It’s better than never.
Game of Thrones is a series that stayed in my phone for about a month before I finally decided to watch it. I don’t even know why I kept putting it off. It was probably because I thought the hype was overblown or maybe I just wasn’t ready to commit to a show with so many seasons and such fanbase. But when I started, that hesitation went away.
Okay… this review might contain a little spoiler. So… here’s a spoiler warning.
Game of Thrones starts off in Winterfell. It is the home of the Stark family. Ned Stark is the warden of the North and the head of the Stark family. He follows strict values in a place where those values often result in death. His old friends, King Robert Baratheon who was the king of the seven kingdom, visits and asks him to serve as Hand of the King, Ned reluctantly agrees, pulling him into the poisonous politics of King’s Landing.
Then there are the Lannisters. We have Cersei (the queen, King Robert’s wife), her twin brother Jaime, and Tyrion, the sharp-tongued dwarf who might be the smartest man in the seven kingdoms.
**
Far away across the Narrow Sea, another story is going on. It is the story of Daenerys Targaryen. I love Daenerys, she's so pretty and cool.
She is the last surviving daughter of the king Robert overthrew. She was a timid, powerless girl, sold by her cruel brother Viserys to the fierce Dothraki warlord Khal Drogo in exchange for an army. What started as a forced marriage turns into an unlikely love. She also becomes the Mother of Dragons.
Jon Snow, Ned Stark’s illegitimate son, joins the Night’s Watch. It is a sworn brotherhood responsible for protecting the realm from outside dangers. At first, Jon thinks the greatest danger is the wildlings. He soon discovers the ancient and terrifying White Walkers, dead creatures who aren’t really dead, slowly building an army in the frozen wilderness. While the lords and ladies of the realm argue over crowns, a relentless force of death moves closer.
As the movie continues, Game of Thrones gets more interesting. Betrayals break up alliances. Those who appear destined for greatness fall suddenly. The Stark family is ripped apart by war. Their members are scattered across the realm.
Robb Stark becomes the king in the North. Robb later meets a tragic end at the Red Wedding. Sansa Stark endures cruelty in the hands of Joffrey Baratheon and Ramsay Bolton. Arya Stark changes from that playful young girl to a skilled assassin trained by the Faceless Man. And Brandon Stark, crippled after a fall from a tower, goes beyond the Wall and discovers he possesses abilities that connect him to the past and future of Westeros.
In King’s Landing, Cersei Lannister does ruthless and evil things. Her love for her children was what was driving every decision she made. Tyrion with his wit and intelligence navigates court politics and the rest. He often underestimated by his enemies but always two steps ahead, until betrayal made him to flee for his life. And Jaime Lannister, who was once seen as a dishonourable knight who killed a king, turns out to be one of the most surprising transformations in the movie. Oh right… did I mention, he was sleeping with his twin sister, Cersei and they actually had three kids. Three.
The rise and fall of the Mother of Dragon
Daenerys’s journey is perhaps one of the most interesting part of the movie. She frees slaves, and bring down tyrants, yet power begins to change her. What was once driving her turn into a dangerous sense of destiny. And when she reaches Westeros with her dragons and armies, the fight for the throne begins. Battles start, each one bigger and more interesting than the last.
And yeah, I know many would argue with me when I say Daenerys somehow deserves the end she got. Yeah, yeah, she was hurt, Cersei did a lot of evil of things but I personally think she shouldn’t have let her emotions control her like that. I said this same thing as a comment in someone’s review that I read earlier. She literally got on her dragon and burned the whole of King’s Landing, including children, babies and innocent people. People who were completely unaware of what those ruling them were doing. These people didn’t know that their queen, Cersei killed one of her dragons (who she considers her children). We cannot call them war damage because Daenerys literally started the war with killing them, the innocents. So why did they have to die because Cersei hurt the mother of Dragons? Come on. She really behaved like a tyrant there and yeah, I’m also among those people who thinks she would have become like the mad king, her father.
She burned the whole of King’s landing and almost half of humanity, who does she want to rule over again. And did she really like that fact that people would fear her from then on??
Jon Snow kills her to prevent further destruction, a heartbreaking end to their complicated love and her rise from nothing. No, I don’t support nor like Jon Snow for what he did. He claimed and told Daenerys that he loves her and yet, it was so easy for him to kill her. What I do approve of, is the Dragon burning that Iron Throne. That throne, from the beginning has been the reason for many madness. You’d understand this after watching House of Dragon it is prequel of the movie Game of Thrones
The long night and the final war
But while kingdoms burn and armies clash, the real threat (the White Walkers) advances. The living unites in a desperate bid to survive the Long Night, a battle fought under endless darkness against an enemy that seems unstoppable. The eventual defeat of the Night King (who wanted to erase every single thing, every single memory of living people every existing) is both a relief and a disappointment.
And then comes the final war of the Iron Throne, where Daenerys, driven by grief and a hunger for absolute rule, makes the decision to burn King’s landing, sealing her fate.
Bran Stark is crowned king in the end. This choice feels strange and underwhelming after so many years of buildup. Arya sails west to explore unknown lands, Sansa becomes Queen in the North. Tyrion once again takes up the thankless job of Hand of the King.
The ending and my thoughts
The ending of Game of Thrones is where people have different opinions, some think Daenerys didn't deserve to die, some think she does. The last season felt rushed to me, especially with Daenerys’s downfall. Jon’s ending also felt muted and Bran becoming king was a decision that left many people with questions. Still, despite the somewhat annoying ending, the journey there was one of the most thrilling I’ve ever experienced in television. I almost feel like laughing whenever I think about the month I left it unwatched in my phone. Even though I wish some things had turned out differently, I would love to watch it again. Game of Thrones is more than just a story you just watch.
Hello CineTV. On my way to watch a movie recommend to me by my friend, I came acrossSky Force. As an addict of Hindi movies, I then halted and chose to watch Sky Force but I’m glad it was worth the watch.
And the most amazing thing about the movie is that it is based on a real life story. Sky Force is a 2025 Hindi movie that revolves round the Indo-Paskistani air war which happened in 1965.
The Kashmir conflict happened in 1971 when the Pakistan Airforce launched an attack on the Indian Airforce. To revenge, a Pakistani pilot named Ahmed, was arrested. Then, this brought a revelation to what happened in the 1965 war.
In 1965, Ahuja and his teammate, Tabby were at Adampur Airbase. These two have a great bond because Ahuja sees Tabby as his late brother, Monh who died years ago while Tabby sees him as his mentor.
Then, after an information of the United States strengthening Pakistani with more weapons, Ahuja and Tabby goes to investigate at the risk of their own lives.
Soon after, Pakistan launched an attack on India knowing well that India can’t fly planes at night. Then, India went on an almost impossible mission of destroying star striker planes and the mission was named Sky Force.
While flying back to India, Ahuja noticed that Tabby was missing but the Indian government sees him as a rebellious soldier and didn’t bother finding him until Geeta, Tabby’s wife urged Ahuja to look for her husband.
After interrogating Ahmed, he revealed that he had a fight with a great Indian soldier who dodged two missiles and shot down Ahmed’s aircraft by sacrificing his life as well.
At last, Tabby was awarded the Maha Vir Chakra and remained the only soldier to get that award posthumously.
How this movie influences me
This movie teaches history. I believe so much in movies and there are times when we may want to know what happened in the past. Then, instead of reading which may get boring, we watch it movies and helps us to learn more about it.
The movie, Sky Force has helped me to learn what Kashmir conflict was and I was able to read what resulted into that war.
This movie has helped to add one more history to the list of historical events that I know.
My favorite scene
I actually cried when Tabby was about to die. What really happened? It was a great fight between him and Ahmed. They were both flying their planes while shooting each other from afar and the very moment when Tabby was attacked and instead of dying, he risked his life by crushing Ahmed’s plane just to save India.
This is what happened to soldiers. And when watching it, I wasn’t even thinking about Tabby anymore. I started thinking about soldiers who have lost their lives this way too. They have human feelings and tears rolled down my eyes the moment Tabby brought out the picture of his son.
It was sad. I know I’m emotional but I really cried.
I don’t really dislike anything about the movie but I wish Tabby wasn’t dead. Well, it wouldn’t look real because that kind of crash will definitely lead to death.
I must hail the producers and the video editors. They did a great job with the graphics and I started thinking, is this real? Were they truly flying the plane?
I know movies are make believes but this felt like real. It made me feel like I was in the war.
I’m happy I took the bold step of watching the movie despite not reading any prior review.
It is worth my watch and I would want you to watch it as well.

"The Garden of Words" is a genre of age gap love. It is directed and edited by Makoto Shinkai. it's a tearjerker anime movie so people will find it as a sad story. But in my opinion it's a bittersweet. If you have a thing for forbidden love then you will love this movie. I do like this type of animes which will bring me to tears with their lovely storyline. I feel this anime movie is one of them. You will be bothered with many complicated feelings and this anime will teach you many things about life and society. It was released in 2013 but the animation will shock you, it felt like the anime is ahead of its time because of the beautiful animation. It will make you fall in love with rainy season. Because this anime is all surrounded about the rain. It's a heartfelt story and I think no one will be disappointed through my review.
The story beings with 15 years old Takao, he is a high school student and he has no one to support him but he has a big dream of becoming a shoemaker. He often skips his school because he is busy sketching shoes. He always make sketches in a garden in the middle of Tokyo. One day he meets a mysterious woman at the garden where he sits and that woman is called Yukino, she is 27 years old. Then, without arranging the times they often ends up meeting each other at the same place but only on rainy days. Yukino is a teacher and she had her own reason for coming at this place often because she was being bullied by her students and to cope, she skips work and seeks refuge in the same park. As time passed they strike an unlikely friendship. Both of them are lonely and they found themselves with each other. They deepen their relationship but realized that the age gap is not going to work out.....
This anime is being accused of normalizing grooming because of the age gap between the main characters. But I feel that's not true at all, I think the writer wanted us to relate strongly about the situations felt by normal human beings. Though the movies duration is 46 minutes, but it feels like a long movie. "The Garden of Words" delivers a simple soft love storyline but many would argue that it is taboo. I know I can't change others mind but this movie is beyond everyone's understanding. Only a few can understand the true meaning of this story. I think people should watch this anime movie few more times to understand the depth of it. Trust me this anime will give you an unique experience which is far better than any other animes nowadays.
To be honest when I was in my teenage days I had fallen for someone way too older than me, it happened without me acknowledging the situation. I think it has happended with many of us but we don't have the courage to admit it. That does not mean that I am supporting this kind of things but this actually happens in real life, it's not just a fantasy. Also, anime is not for kids so I think if an adult is watching this then they are enough old to decide for themselves. Everyone should look at the bright side of the anime, there will always be some animes which won't go according to our choices and that's normal. I feel we should normalize to accept unique storylines because I am fed up with the old typical love stories.
This is an incredible anime movie with a profound message! As if you want something in life then you have to fight for it, and if you don't raise your voice. Then being in the background is not going to help you. So, if you really want to accomplish in your life then you should step outside of your comfort zone. Because you gotta decide what you want to do in life. Being scared of what others will say is not going to take you anywhere. I have felt this strong message in the anime but I have seen only few mentioning about it. But I would love to enlighten everyone's knowledge because I know that there's a misunderstanding about this anime movie. I am going to rate this anime 9 out of 10, I didn't give it a 10 because of the ending. I think they could have made it the way audience would want but it went into a different direction which was not expected. Feel free to watch this anime it is one of the sweetest love story I have ever seen.

I just watched Oppenheimer and wow… honestly it’s one of the most intense movies I’ve seen in years. Christopher Nolan directed it and it’s about J. Robert Oppenheimer, the physicist who basically led the making of the atomic bomb in World War II. But it’s not just a science story, there’s politics, personal problems and those kind of moral questions that make you stop and think.
The film is about his early days as a young and curious scientist , who walks his way to lead the manhattan project, this was believed to be a secret mission by the US to build their first nuclear weapon.. You see how smart he was but also how his life just got more tangled. As things moved forward he had to handle pressure from the government, the fear of failing and also the thought of what his work would actually do to the world.
Cillian Murphy plays Oppenheimer and he nails it. Makes him feel like a real person, confident but still not sure about a lot of things. Robert Downey Jr. is in there as Lewis Strauss, and their relationship is complicated to say the least. Emily Blunt plays Kitty, Oppenheimer’s wife, and she has some strong scenes dealing with how much their family had to give up.
One thing I noticed, Nolan keeps switching the timeline around. It jumps from the rise of Oppenheimer to the Manhattan Project’s peak, then to later years where he’s facing the aftermath. It keeps you watching but you have to pay attention or you’ll miss stuff.
The Trinity test scene is probably my favorite part. You can literally feel the tension before the explosion. When it finally happens… the sound, the light, everything, it’s just stuck in my head now.
But what really got me is how the film deals with guilt. After the bomb is used, Oppenheimer can’t shake the thought that maybe he caused more harm than good. That part hit me the most.
It’s a long film, yeah, but I never got bored. The music from Ludwig Göransson fits so well, and the visuals are amazing. Nolan used practical effects instead of just CGI and it really shows.
So yeah, Oppenheimer isn’t just a history movie. It’s about ambition, the cost of knowledge, and living with the choices you make.
A few days ago, the Jubilee of Youth was celebrated in Rome, with the presence of the new Pope Leo XIV, so the expectation of the meeting was focused on how the guests would receive our main church pastor. Fortunately, he was praised and accepted by the pilgrims, so we could say he passed the test!
This reminded me of a movie I had already seen, but I wanted to watch it again because, unlike other opinions, I did commune and I liked the management of the late Pope Francis; I even agreed with the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI when he understood that his strength was no longer optimal to continue being the leader of the Catholic Church.
The first time I saw it, like any Netflix movie, it was promoted solely as advertising and seeking controversy among the already controversial positions of the church, which is always divided into many factions. I don't think it helped much to clean up the church's image, but I let it go because who was I going to tell about it? Today, with a community dedicated to analyzing or recommending these movies, I thought it was pertinent to watch it again to give my opinion.
Hace unos días, se celebró el Jubileo de los Jóvenes en Roma, con la presencia del nuevo papa León XIV, por lo que la expectativa del encuentro, estaba centrada en como recibirían los invitados a nuestro pastor principal de la iglesia. Afortunadamente, fue elogiado y aceptado por los peregrinos, por lo que diríamos ¡Pasó la prueba!
Esto me hizo recordar una película que ya había visto, pero quería mirarla nuevamente porque, a diferencia de otras opiniones, yo si comulgué y me gustó la gestión del fallecido papa Francisco; incluso estuve de acuerdo con la renuncia del papa Benedicto XVI, cuando entendió que su fuerza ya no estaba óptima para seguir siendo el líder de la iglesia católica.
La primera vez que la vi, como toda película de Netflix, fue promocionada solo como publicidad y buscando la polémica entre las posturas ya controversiales de la iglesia, que siempre está dividida en muchos bandos. Creo que no ayudó mucho a limpiar la imagen de la iglesia, pero la dejé pasar porque ¿A quién se la iba a comentar? Hoy, con una comunidad dedicada a analizar o recomendar estas películas, pensé que era pertinente verla otra vez para poder dar mi opinión.
From the movie, how does it enter your head that a serial killer can be the pope? Well, only Mr. Anthony Hopkins achieves this, and he did it SO WELL that I recommend you watch it just for that 😉. This actor is amazing, still relevant, acting, and still taking us to the most emotional levels, making us forget that it’s acting. I imagine he had to learn Latin, as there are several scenes in the movie where that language is used and he handles it perfectly, but what if it is difficult for a young person to learn something? Imagine how challenging it could be for that actor at his age and to do it so well that his performance is totally believable.
I first researched whether I had seen Jonathan Pryce in any movies before committing the sin of saying I didn’t know him, but he is one of those actors who have "common faces" that feel familiar. Since I recently watched "The Children of Witon" (for Hopkins, of course), he appears there, so I know he is an actor as excellent as his character required.
I assume that portraying the same pope (at that time living) and expecting some type of response from him must have been a very exhaustive and dedicated preparation to not fail in representing his figure, tired but still imposing and relevant. I think he did it excellently.
It's important to highlight that the filler scenes were "true fillers" because there was certainly no need to use other people in the plot; rather, the dialogues were engaging, revealing many things, they were argumentative, and achieved the goal of attempting to approach the realities of the context that surrounded the two controversial popes.Always the Vatican or the retreats of the popes.
Always the Vatican or the summer residences of the supreme pontiffs arouses curiosity, as does the Conclave, which was very well set. On the other hand, the Argentinean aspect of Pinochet, of soccer, of the neighborhood, was perfectly represented to explain some aspects of Pope Francis's life, which is neither tiring nor boring, nor is it filler. Everything is good on that side 💯.
De la película
¿Cómo entra en tu cabeza que un asesino serial, puede ser el papa? Pues, esto solo lo logra el señor Anthony Hopkins y le quedó TAN BIEN que solo por eso les recomiendo que la vean 😉. Este actor es lo máximo, aún sigue vigente, actuando, y aún sigue llevándonos a los planos más emocionales, que nos hace olvidar que es una actuación.
Me imagino que tuvo que aprender latín, ya que en la película existen varias escenas donde se utiliza ese lenguaje y él lo maneja a la perfección, pero ¿Si a uno que es joven le cuesta aprenderse algo? Imagina lo desafiante que puede ser para ese actor a sus tantos años y hacerlo tan genial que es creíble totalmente su actuación.
De Jonathan Pryce primero investigué si lo había visto en alguna película antes de pecar en decir que no lo conozco, pero es de esos actores que son "caras comunes", que se te hacen familiar. Como hace poco vi "lo niños de Witon" (por Hopkins por supuesto), allí aparece, entonces sé que es un actor tan excelente como su personaje lo requería.
Asumo que interpretar al mismo papa (en ese momento vivo) y esperar algún tipo de respuesta de él, debió ser una preparación muy exhaustiva y dedicada para no fallar en su figura, ya cansada, pero igual de imponente y relevante. Creo que lo hizo de manera excelente.
Es importante resaltar, que los rellenos fueron "verdaderos rellenos" porque ciertamente no hubo necesidad de usar otras personas en la trama, sino que los diálogos no cansan, revelan muchas cosas, son argumentativos y logran el objetivo de intentar aproximarse a las realidades del contexto que rodeó a los dos polémicos papas.
Siempre el Vaticano o las casas de descanso de los sumos pontífices, causa curiosidad, así como el Cónclave, que fue muy bien ambientado. Por otra parte, la argentina de Pinochet, del fútbol, del barrio, estuvo representada perfectamente para explicar algunos aspectos de la vida del papa Francisco, que no cansa ni aburre, o está de relleno. Todo bien por ese lado 💯.
The importance of the papacy I believe that meeting is a supposition of what could have happened between them; however, the movie shows us relevant aspects such as Pope Francis' decision to resign when he was a cardinal, how controversial he was during his priesthood in Argentina, and even the aspect that he could have been a normal married man, but God's designs had prepared something else for him, and he led us in his papacy as he saw fit, and that deserves respect.
As for Pope Benedict XVI, I truly have nothing to say. I think his legacy passed without much recognition or perhaps because he was not Latin, we didn't fully understand his legacy as we perhaps could understand Francis. Mind you, I don't mean to say that I didn't appreciate him or anything like that; I am one who believes that the value of obedience is necessary when one belongs to a religion, so I respect my spiritual leaders.
Now, perhaps for Pope Francis, that Latin American heritage worked against him, with the decisions he made because we are passionate like that, but I believe he also did the best he could, because churches definitely need to regain followers, not drive them to other religions due to ancient precepts like the celibacy of priests or communion for divorced people.
These are very sensitive topics addressed in the film, as well as forgiveness and mercy, the scandals of the church, and the vision of where Catholic followers should walk now. Therefore, we should watch it with objective eyes and not let ourselves be enveloped by our passions.
La importancia del pontificado
Creo que esa reunión, es una suposición de lo que pudo haber pasado entre ellos; sin embargo, la película nos muestra aspectos relevantes como la decisión del papa Francisco renunciar cuando era cardenal, lo polémico que fue durante su sacerdocio en Argentina y hasta el aspecto de que pudo haber sido un hombre normal casado, pero los designios de Dios le tenían preparado otra cosa, y nos dirigió en su pontificado como él pensaba y eso es de respetarse.
En cuanto al papa Benedicto XVI, de verdad que no tengo nada que opinar. Creo que su legado pasó sin pena ni gloria o como no era latino, quizás no entendimos bien su legado como quizás pudimos comprender a Francisco. Ojo, con esto no quiero decir que no lo quisiera o algo así; soy de las que piensa que el valor de la obediencia es necesario cuando uno pertenece a una religión, por lo que respeto a mis líderes espirituales.
Ahora, quizás al papa Francisco, justamente esa herencia latinoamericana le jugó en contra, con las decisiones que tomaba porque somos así de pasionarios, pero creo que también lo hizo lo mejor que pudo, porque definitivamente que las iglesias necesitan recuperar fieles, no alejarlos a otras religiones por preceptos milenarios como el celibato de los sacerdotes o la comunión para las personas divorciadas.
Son temas muy álgidos que se tocan en la película, así como el perdón y la misericordia, los escándalos de la iglesia y la visión de a dónde deben caminar ahora los seguidores católicos. Por eso, debemos verla con ojos objetivos y no dejarnos arropar por nuestras pasiones.
It's a movie I recommend if you like this genre and can watch it without fanaticism.

Far away across the Narrow Sea, another story is going on. It is the story of Daenerys Targaryen. I love Daenerys, she's so pretty and cool.
