This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.
I believe that some ideas are really good but some these are not good enough to became a cinema movie. "El Sonador" from Adrian Saba is one of these ideas of movie. The plot is really fragile and poor while the story is not able to catch the audience and follow the ways of Chaplin.Gustavo Borjas as Chaplin or Sebastian is terrible and the beautiful Elisa Tenaud as Emilia look a school teenager girl in her first theater work school. Of course that we must to say that is always a heroic work to make a Latin American movie and face all kind of challenges, but anyway this movie demanded a hard work and this opportunity could be better used while the movie existed only in the papers or mind of director and writer.
