polatoal What I don't understand is at what point do they start to love each other? This is not real love that makes you feel warm inside. This is a piece of s***. They are both drop dead gorgeous, they look at each other and Babi forgets whatever bullshit he did to her just because he's drop dead gorgeous and they fall in love only because they are beautiful. Honestly I was watching this and I thought, they must have skipped some months because these guys have nothing in common, nothing to bond over. We didn't see any meaningful dialogue between them. At WHAT POINT, and WHY are they deeply in love? This movie is immature love at the most. I'm 16 but I just think at 18-21 people are more mature and should have deeper relationships? Maybe i would have liked this movie when i was 10. It's like a very young teens/child fantasy because it has no basis on reality or true love (sorry I keep mentioning this).Watch this movie if you want to kill brain cells. I liked the music at the start star for that. And it was entertaining, I didn't get bored (maybe at the end).
Maja Pcelica Well I also hated this film before I even saw it, but I must say it was a pleasant surprise. Maybe it's a typical teenage love story, but it has something of a mess that I like and that makes it a little bit unpredictable. Don't know why everyone talking negatively about Hugo's behavior, because in the place where I have grown up, he's just a normal guy like every other, with dark past after him, trying hard to run away into a normal relationship in which he won't be hurt nor hurt anybody. And in the end you see that for people like him it's really impossible, and that makes me kind of sad and angry at the same time, because I found myself in his character. And also it's obvious that there are a lot of women who just fall in love with that kind of men(Just like Babi did), so that's their choice, and no one should judge them. I hate fake feminism or boys talking about sexism, you won't find them in this movie. The only thing I didn't like are stuffs like British flag, big Coca- Cola sign, so inappropriate for a movie of the nation with so rich and beautiful culture like it is Spanish culture, there's no need for making attention with it. But, finally, I think that this movie don't deserve bad critics from people who don't understand psychical structure of a person who had been hurt by family member, lost faith in life during growing up , suffered strong violence of any kind etc. And to me, its all about Hugo's life in their love story, and that actor who's playing him is really good one, so charming.
haqvinsson I got this movie recommended for me, more than once, so I had high expectations. It started out with a guy insulting a girl - and of course you already know they are going to fall in love. But at that same moment, when you see the girl with a shy smile on her lips, as her car drives away - that is one of the first, of many, big mistakes this movie does. Justifying and encouraging such treatment - to insult someone in order to "get her".This movie justifies men treating women with no respect what so ever, the main character, Hugo, harassed the girl, Babi, more times than I can count, without any reason. This treatment kept on going, even after they became a couple. And Bebi kept running back to him two seconds later, whatever 'big' mistake he did. One second they were broken up, and the next they were kissing again.Tres metros sobre el cielo provides terrible gender behavior and roles for both men and women. It reinforces the stereotypes of men being violent, cold, emotionless, brutal and disrespectful, and it portrays women as weak, indecisive, extremely emotional and incredibly dependent. I don't even know where to start, I could write a whole book about this movie and how it reinforces the gendered stereotypes we already have, and what kind of message it sends out to young teenagers - who I guess are the main audience for this movie.One of the few good things I can say about it was the beautiful photography, it was thoughtful, lovely and very artistic. The actors were doing a good job as well, but their characters and the script was very, very bad.I will not recommend this movie to anyone - but probably rant about how bad it was, and how disappointed it made me. I kept waiting for a twist, a twist that somehow would make all the behaviors and the treatment justified, but it never came.. Please don't waste your time on this movie.
air-yuliya I wouldn't call this film extraordinary but there's something about it that made me feel good, be nervous, be disappointed, be compassionate while watching it.One funny thing. I watched Tres Metros.. in Russian and in English. When Hache first met Babi in the traffic jam he called her 'dogface' in English version and 'soldier' in Russian (no idea why! So silly). It made me curious what was really said so I found an original. With my basic Spanish I could figure out that Hache said 'fea' (Spanish speakers, help me out here) which means 'ugly'. So English 'dogface' in slang was closer to this meaning ('very insulting term for an ugly girl/woman', urbandictionary.com). My search went further. There's actually an English slang term 'fea' which means the same as the Spanish one: 'Fea can be used as an endearing expression to refer to a girl. It literally means ugly, but when someone is beautiful and you call them fea, it is culturally acceptable - as a tease'. Still NO IDEA why Russians translated it like 'soldier'. That's why I never watch English movies dubbed into Russian, only in original language. Unfortunately, I don't speak Spanish to watch Tres metros.. I wish I could.Back to the movie. I think that Hache and Babi haven't reached 'true love' stage. Sure, they have changed each other but not to the point where they could make their relationships work. The second movie 'Tengo Ganas de Ti' will explain more and I think both movies should be watched to complete the picture...
