Awesome Movie

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Hmm, so, having played up the stereotypes of Latino amour: passion, obsession and blood-searing rage, this one basically makes a bit of a hash of the script, with some Serrano Family-like boy-talk, lots of jumps and kicks, a bit of hit-and-miss humour and a stunning leading lady whom I personally had trouble taking my eyes off of!The story is simple yet bizarre in its flash-backs and editing and where Zamir - the "hero" - can either be interpreted as a stalker or loved-up boy without a clue as of how to express himself (just as the beautiful Kim can be called either the ingénue unsure how to prompt Zamir, or a total bitch and tease), it all equates to a bit of fun to add something extra to an otherwise two-dimensional plot (not to mention laugh-out-loud memories of Zamir punching out any man who dares so much as look at her!).Other users here may see this and HATE the computer-animated blood effects poorly tacked on afterwards to give the film a bit of wholly unnecessary gore, but bare in mind that this flick is incredibly low budget, don't allow this and some of the terrible studio backdrops to ruin it for you and you'll find a film that just wants to kick a lot of butt and have a lot of fun in the process.Still, budget restraints aside, the final shot of Zamir walking off into the painted sunset, clearly not making any ground on the running machine he's made walk upon just has to be intentionally funny.I was going to give this film a 7 for effort but a 6 is about right - just keep an eye open for the impressive Marko Zaror, who deserves a brighter future. For Caterina whatever-her-name-is (okay, Jadresic) who plays Kim, I'll rate it a 10.

Visceral, passionate and brave; Kiltro splatters boiling blood straight from the heart! An exercise of pure love to genre movies, a story told many times before but now told with a bunch of guts and the taste of a new generation.Kiltro is able to take very serious the most beautiful clichés and then punch you in your face with a marvelous twist! A lot of emotions come together, contradictable emotions, sometimes you don't now if to cry or to laugh, but both sentiments hit you hard. The director definitely loves the story he's telling; he loves it as obsessively as Zami (main character) loves Kim (the girl), you can clearly notice it when the camera follows Zami down the street… he's heart is broken… he walks sadly… the camera follows him on a steady-cam and never cuts… Zami keeps walking sad… mad… and starts to run! David Bowie's Modern Love sounds loud! The camera starts running with him! You get chicken' skin! Wow, at that point you just start praying to make this dude get the girl! That scene was taken from Leos Caraxe's Mauvais Sang and works more than perfect in Kiltro. Just like that one you'll see a lot of scenes taken from other movies, a similar exercise to Tarantino's Kill Bill, but more funky or weird. The story takes place at the Chilean's Korea town, where you also can find Arabic people and some pretty Chilean-Chilean characters. It's like a bubble right in the middle of Santiago city, a world where everything is possible, it reminds me some of Takashi Miike's flicks, where he shows Tokyo's underworld like something fantastic and stylized. Kiltro mixes anime, Leone's westerns, comic book flavor, Starwars, Bruce Lee and the whole spirit of Asian films. A pastiche totally coherent with south American cultures, a blend of the previous cultures, a fresh blend, that's why it works. And the fight scenes! Guys! Marco Zaror is like Tony Jaa or better. The fights scenes are terrific! The question came to me: Is the big fight scene in Kiltro the best fight scene I've seen? It could be. I don't remember any other martial arts movie with a fight like this one. Looks real but exceedingly stylized, it's raw and violent but funny at the same time, strange but cool mix. I loved it. Trying to think in a better fight scene but I can't. Proud to say it was made in Chile!To be honest with you I entered the theater just because of curiosity. I went to watch a Chilean action movie and after 20 minutes of film a forgot that fact… after 20 minutes of film I encounter myself in the middle of a FLICK, a flick that I enjoyed like I use to enjoy movies when I was a kid, like A JOURNEY, like watching something I've already seen but it feels like the first time, something bizarrely good, maybe AN EXPEDITION by a new road for south American cinema, something really pleasant, a MUST SEE for film lovers all over the world, those movies after you watch them you say "thanks". Now I'm just praying to have "Kiltro II" as soon as possible!

Amazing, the soundtrack will blow the mind of all the fanatics of Morricone or Bacalov... a lot of spaghetti western influence like Tarantino's Kill Bill, plus bloody gore fx zatoichi style. Zaror was very good in the fights , and also he has a lot of charisma , but my favorite one was Miguel Angel DeLuca, the Kung Fu sensei who plays the bad guy in the film, a really great performance full of intense moments , like the tragic flashbacks (you will remember Leone in one of them). A very entertainment film that has quality and heart. Back off Tonny Jaa , here comes Kiltro!. I recommend this film to all the fans of the old kung fu films, spaghetti western, Miike, Tonny Jaa and martial arts.

Hearing about a Chilean film was not surprising, indeed its very common but when you hear about a Chilean ACTION film that's a total different story.I must admit that I am not quite a fan of Chilean movies but after watching this I can honestly say that my opinion is changing, nice and clean edition and very quick and realistic fighting sequences makes this film a very interesting and surprising film.The Good Points:* Simple story and not a silly saving-the-world-from-an-ancient-satanic-sect plot, this makes the movie easier to understand and fun to watch. * Very nice fighting sequences, I heard a rumor that the main actor of this movie is indeed a martial artist of recognition in our country and you can clearly see it as you watch the movie, the fights are fast and realistic making you say OUCH! in every kick. * Its a very funny movie, I laughed a lot of times with the jokes in the movie. A lot of scenes brings us the sweet memories of the 80's series like Kung Fu and one character reminds me of Star Wars as I must say that he is the Chilean Master Yoda.The Bad Points:* The Visual Effects are not quite good, the blood was digitalized and you can easily notice it in a lot of scenes. * The main actor is really good at kicking, but when it comes to acting the result is not up to the expectations(mine at least). * The Music is half good, half horrible. A lot of good bands in the soundtracks, but also a lot of bands that really stink.I really recommend this movie, my expectations where absolutely none, I just went because I was curious about the FIRST Chilean action film and I was really surprised. Very Nice Work, lets wait for the sequel!
