Movie review: Al final del túnel (Spain/Argentina)

 

Check out Rachel Campos from fox news bitching about the weirdos at Davos that are trying to run shit like the corporate elite. Hell yeah she's right. I call them fuggen shluts but some people prefer weirdos, sure.

Anyway some movie from my sometime compatriots has blinked up on the teedee (TV). Some guy called Joaquin confined to a wheelchair. It's a good time to listen and watch. About half an hour after midnight after doing two back to back all nighter bus shifts til 430am.


I like listening to the Spaniards speak as it's a rarity for me. It's a patriotic pro. 

Hey I'm loving Australia too I just got lucky with my back pain going away again. They get a shithot new massage chair in Mona Vale bus depot. Amazeballs.


So this movie it's like Joaquin is stuck in his wheelchair with his dog Casimiro. Then he gets some cute young momma to move in as a roommate with her little daughter. So it just has been on ten minutes but that's the thing. The lady is a stripper so she does a dance for the guy. He smokes a lot.


There's kind of a dopey musical section which ends in the stripper's daughter making friends with the dog. Then montage of stripper mom all done in a way that you're wondering how wheelchair man is coping with his new hot roommate.


Then he starts crying. Still got his cancer stick. Too bad my old man wasn't there to yell at him and call him stupid I guess.


Now he's creeping around listening to the wall, maybe he can spy on hottie roommate. Actually he's listening to his neighbours through the wall with a stethoscope. 


There's a short scene where you see Joaquin and his new live in girlfriend carrying on like a newly minted married couple.


Then Joaquin is working on his computer listening to the neighbours talking about him the whole time like they're spying on him and he's spying on them doing that. It's kind of weird. Think Davos, or candy cane with no stripes just spots. Weird.

Now Joaquin is giving her her marching orders. Man there was the cutest Spanish girl in journalism faculty in Madrid back in the day. She'd be the girl I'd go for if I wanted to get serious about a Spaniard. Holy shit she was pretty and she liked me too.


Man too many Australians talk like fags. Too many dysfunctional people here. Spanish language puts an end to all that, I can tell you. Go get extremely drunk. Ok anyway this movie might be like Argentine or Uruguayan actors but I saw some of the funding companies were from Spain. Uruguayan whatever. They're not all marching to the border with USA like they're happy with their lives.


Ok very interesting plot twist. Joaquin has started filming and spying the strangers on the other side of the wall he discovered. Also Uruguayans or Argentinians based on their accents. Turns out his stripper roommate is in cahoots with these people and they're criminals digging a tunnel (hence the movie name) trying to break into a bank or something. Joaquin is now wise to hus stripper roommate's wiles and her relationship with the criminal boss downstairs on the other side of the wall.


Ok some potential liability amongst the criminals gets his leg stabbed with a screwdriver for being a liability. Then a handpick in the face killing him. Joaquin is watching everything and just as disappointed as Trump with all these Hispanic criminals. Joaquin was pretty shocked with the dramatic moment then next scene he's in another sexy situation with the hotty stripper whose actually with the head criminal guy that just murdered the liability guy are stabbing his leg with a screwdriver.


Ok so Joaquin drugs stripper lady because he wants to disable her, it's part of his plan to counter his new tunnel building crimmo neighbours. Where's ICE when you need them right? And what's with Spanish speakers always digging tunnels to do crime?


It's a pretty good movie pretty ingenious.. you'll just have to watch it.


Man those Argentinians party hard at 2am. I finally realised that one club is all them. Gave a shitload of them a ride on the bus they started singing happy birthday and shit all drunk.


Joaquin has decided to dig his own tunnel and steal some of the money the team of bankrobbing crimmos are plotting to steal. He also showed stripper lady a video he shot of liability guy getting murdered by her boyfriend. That blew her mind. 


There are plenty of shit Spanish language movies but this film is actually ok.


You can't really believe Joaquin tunneled into the criminal group's tunnel and moved and the dirt in like one night without drawing their attention. I wouldn't make my movie looking like that. Or maybe not. I'd say these are very masterful filmmakers. It's Argentine.


Check out Trump singing the Doors, People are Strange.... You don't see Hilary doing that...

Man I had this teacher from Kentucky in junior year after I returned from Spain and learned Spanish, over in western Sydney. Ms Dempsey. She had us reading Pedro y el Capitán, some plays from Uruguay or Argentina. I don't remember it anymore but it was pretty violent like the climax of this movie. Pretty amazing.
