Foreign Movie Review: WILD TALES (2015) AA+

Argentina: Spanish;subtitles

This film . . . composed of a series of separate stories . . . is one of the greatest comedies produced since Young Frankenstein.  But there is a catch!!!.  YOU HAVE BE BE ATTUNED TO THIS SORT OF Sid Caesar TYPE OF COMEDY.

It surely isn't for everyone.  But the B rated classic, Night Of The Living Dead movie was not for everyone either but became a cult classic.  I can say without any hesitation this film will become a cult classic also.

Using other reviewers words here are some of their comments:

• Inequality, injustice and the demands of the world we live in cause stress and depression for many people. Some of them, however, explode. This is a movie about those people. Vulnerable in the face of a reality that shifts and suddenly turns unpredictable, the characters of Wild Tales cross the thin line that divides civilization and barbarism. A lover's betrayal, a return to the repressed past and the violence woven into everyday encounters drive the characters to madness as they cede to the undeniable pleasure of losing

The director orchestrates each sequence expertly, demonstrating a flair for delivering absurd complications with marvellous comic timing and rich cinematic style.

• Deliriously unhinged and uproarious, it'll make you feel wretched about the world around you ... but you'll be having too much fun to care.

• Critics Consensus: Wickedly hilarious and delightfully deranged, Wild Tales is a subversive satire that doubles as a uniformly entertaining anthology film.

•Damian Szifron's Wild Tales is an insane and delightful collection of stories that combines thrills and dark comedy for a spellbinding and unforgettable experience.Damian Szifron's Wild Tales is an insane and delightful collection of stories that combines thrills and dark comedy for a spellbinding and unforgettable experience.
