Funny, but Sad,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pantaleon y las Visitadoras (DVD)
Funny - Comical and at times just nuts. You can easily see the road which 'La Colombiana' is taking the straight-laced Capitan.Sad- You can also tell who the Capitan is thinking about when he lights his lighter. DVD functionality was good. Picture is pristine, with options for English and Spanish subtitles in letterbox. This one was a pleasant surprise.

Foreign film lovers,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pantaleon y las Visitadoras (DVD)
I am one who loves foreign films. Especially those from latin america. This movie is highly entertaining and really captures some of the "spicyness and characteristics" of latino culture . Anyone who has lived in South America knows this. One scene scene that did this was the fiesta with the band and dancers. The music, costumes, dances, and atmosphere were very similar to what you would find if you went there tomorrow. Maybe the ending was a little too harsh, but an overall entertaining flick it was.

Original and Well Executed,

This review is from: Pantaleon y las Visitadoras (DVD)
Great Peruvian film here! It is about a clean-cut, obediant captain in the Peruvian army who is assigned to go undercover as a businessman near a far-off army base where the soldiers have been causing havoc in the nearby city, raping women (since there are no women in the land where they are stationed. The captain (who is a loyal husband and soon-to-be father, spearheads a business in which prostitutes are brought down the Amazon River and are paid to provide "renderings" to the soldiers. Alot of the drama in this dark comedy/drama comes from "La Colombiana," an extremely beautiful "visitadora" whom becomes a favorite of the soldiers and her boss. This made my wife and I laugh out at several parts, though lovers of drama will more than likely appreciate this piece more than those who are just looking for a few laughs. The acting is impeccable, the script was witty, but not overdone, the film quality was great (much better than I had expected considering not many Peruvian films make it into the US market). A Must-See!!
