Edge of Tomorrow (2014)
A movie that I ended up enjoying a lot
The performance of Tom Cruise and the cast crew is sensational. It's also very pleasant to know that Doug Liman in the direction and McQuarrie in the penning knew how to adapt very well the manga "All You Need Is Kill" by Hiroshi Sakurazaka on which the story is based.
Regarding the plot adaptation, it's undoubtedly an exciting film with excellent suspense. The action scenes are very intense, and personally I like that background where the protagonist can go back in time to avoid making the same mistakes. It is a super power that without a doubt you wish you had but without having to pay for it with your life. Some might say that it is an inspiration between Groundhog Day, The Butterfly Effect and The War of the Worlds in a Halo version, but I think it surpasses all that, since the special effects and the war scenes mean that the repetitions are not so boring, and the virulent nature of the aliens allows somehow to justify their actions (on the other hand, in other movies like The War of the Worlds or Independence Day this is a great plot flaw in my opinion).
Better than I was expecting and worth to watch when it comes to feeling and enjoying intense scenes :)
Full Metal Jacket (1987)
A classic piece of unforgettable film-making
Among the set of films that make up the war cinema of the Vietnam War (Apocalypse Now, Platoon, etc) I consider this as the greatest masterpiece made by Kubrick. Required to be seen at least once by all movie lovers.
Hotel Rwanda (2004)
Don't be fooled, this film is a bunch of lies
In the true story Paul Rusesabagina charged large sums of money from those who sought refuge in his hotel. The Ibuka group of Tutsi survivors has stated multiple times that this film is completely false, and that in reality Paul is a mobster who has already been arrested with international endorsement for financing subversive and terrorist groups (search him on Google). Please, don't let the Hollywood lobby take us for idiots.
