Well i just finished watching SANGRE and it was painful.The acting was lousy and the camera shots were always the same,the story has no message at all.I don't know what the director was trying to achieve here.I am really a fan of art movies ..but what was that??? The actors could not even cry ,and it really puts the Mexican way of life to the worst.The couple are constantly fighting over stuff that isn't important and its total rubbish.I live in Mexico and my life is full of happiness thou life is never easy.But letting your daughter commit suicide is really f..... up.The movie is garbage and there it ends...you cant even call this contemporary art..its not artistic at all.Bad acting ,bad story bad lines.I think the best of all was the camera..but not how they moved or filmed with it..don't waist 90 with this piece of GARBAGE

waited for this movie for about 15 years since i saw Return of the Jedi almost every day as a kid ,(well not the entire movie but the endor space battle i could not get enough).So when i suddenly heard in 1998 that there was a new Star Wars Movie coming out i could not believe it. So i waited for the big Day .And went to the Theater ...Alone of course. And the Star Wars Title started rolling up along with the Great Fanfare of John. Williams..i didn't know what to expect,cause i had avoided every star wars trailer poster or whatever had to o with the Film. So the beginning was great a usually pan down and i space ship flying by.The first 20 minutes or so its all lighsaber battles ,you see obi wan young with his master and its very exiting.The visuals are great and all is fine.Than the movie starts to slow down when our heroes meet jar jar and save the princess.We finally meet r2 d2 for the first time and he saves the day.By this time i was still very exited about the whole thing.Enter anakin...well this was i guess my first moment when i started to say ,wait a minute...the acting of this little boy was not convincing,his tatooine accent was terrible American,compared to watto's.By the way i love watto's voice and Animation.I had thought that we would meet anakin way older and i was hoping for a little more Acting skills...i cant believe that over thousand's they choose this little kid.Well tha pod race really blew me away.but overall there was no character development ,obi wan had a couple of lines only...and thats like the main guy here.If it wasn't for Obi Wan ,Anakin never would have become so powerful nor Darth Vader.So i expected more story on Obi Wan.Not why jar jar was banished and nonsense talk like this. Well the movie went on and i got a little frustrated..i really was missing the old folks..and the Final Battle was exactly as the first and that sucked!!! Anakin destroying the Federation Comandship by accident was just to lame if you compare it to how hard it was to take out both death stars.Every time i watch episode 4 i still get nervous in the trench.So the day was saved by anakin this time.And he got accepted for being trained by obi wan.The Duel against Darth Maul is the best lighsaber duel ever!!! Even better that Ep3.

When i went out of the Theater i was sad and confused..OK it was alright and it was star wars !! But not what i had dreamed about for years. Its a good movie for younger audiences and new star wars fan's but for people that grew up in 1981 like me it was a disappointment. I do own it on DVD and have watched it several times but it could have been made better
