Suman Roberson It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Cristina Marie I am a big fan of European Cinema but did not know this young Spanish director (Alberto Rodriguez). I have to say that he is very good and now I can't wait to see his previous film: "The Suit"."7 Virgins" depicts the life of certain teenagers in Andalucia who live their lives to the limit because they feel they have nothing to lose. The young actors are fantastic. I'm not surprised that Juan Jose Ballesta won the Silver Shell at the San Sebastian Film Festival - well deserved! I remember reading that Angelica Huston, who was president of the jury back then, had said that Juan Jose Ballesta was the closest thing she had seen to being a real movie star.
daniel Carbajo López Tano is a young guy that has a 48 freedom ticket due to the wedding of his brother, and the he will return with his friends and he wants to enjoy as much as possible his time, but soon he will realize that the time he has spend in prison ill not return and that the world has moved without him and now is his turn to become an adult. Well the movie is not bad, it is not boring, the story in not bad, but, well is the typical story of the suburban young boy, margined, insolent, stupid and with an enormous stubbornness that makes him to not become anything better. Ballesta makes quite well his part, the same as always and Carroza plays surprisingly well (Goya totally deserved), the others are just correct, nothing more. The movie has come with lots of rumors to be good, and I think they were a little exaggerated, the movie is not bad, it is entertaining but it adds anything new to the cinema. THe story is the same as always and it is quite expected. There are many better films to watch to, but this one is not disgusting.
Daniel Arco Well... its generic, predictable, and well... living in Spain let me just tell you that this movie wasn't that hard to make and most of the characters in the movie are typical. It may impress foreigners but theses characters are stereotypes of Spanish cinema.Even so... Jesus Carranza does a neat job as Richi, proving that even the most superficial character if done with dignity can be interesting to watch and well... Juan Jose BAllesta probably had fun playing himself.If it wasn't for its twisted ending, the movie would be below average in my opinion, but everything must be said, Did anyone expect Richci to die?
Erika I was lucky enough to see this at the Toronto Film Festival in 2005. It is an excellent film- tight story, exciting, rich characters, phenomenal acting...from NON-ACTORS. Reminiscent of KIDS but so much better because these guys love women, instead of trying to infect them. Has the same fast pace, families that disappoint, meeting up with friends, harm, trouble, petty crime. The story is basically about a teen and what he does on leave from juvenile hall/prison for the weekend, somewhere in Spain. So, so, so good!! Why hasn't this been distributed?? It would do well in the theatres and certainly on DVD if it had advertising. I was amazed with the quality of this film and that it had not been seen by many audiences. Someone should pick up this film.
