I declare myself a fan of the actress Naomi Watts, I like the selection of films that she agrees to make, if she is there I dare to see it since I am confident that it will not be bad, and so far with this criterion it has gone well for me, because among the that I have seen, such as King Kong and the Impossible, remain forever in my memory, although they are not one of the best where she demonstrates her histrionic…More

Michael Haneke, the director of the film, once said that if Funny Games became a blockbuster, it was because people had not understood it. He has also commented on numerous occasions that what was proposed with her was not to make a horror movie, but a reflection on media violence. An anti-horror movie, which is what it really is. It is a film in which the theme is above the narrative, and of course many times that…More
