  Saludos comunidad de @cinetv. Estoy de nuevo por aquí para compartirles mi opinión sobre un film de terror que vi anoche llamado LONGLEGS. Y pues, básicamente le di una oportunidad por su trama y también al saber que trabajaba el grandioso Nicolas Cage. Así que sírvete un cafecito o te, y disfruta de estas líneas que escribí sobre la película, sin dar spoilers.

  Esta película se estrenó este año y me sorprendí mucho al ver que uno de sus protagonistas era Nicolas Cage. Así como también participó como productor de la misma. Y bueno la trama en sí gira en torno a una detective del FBI que investiga el caso de un asesino en serie conocido como Longlegs.

  Este suele asesinar familias enteras cuyas hijas cumplen años en días específicos del mes y además de esto, la trama denota temas de posesión demoníaca y ocultismo. Para mí, este tema de terror suele ser mi favorito en todos los aspectos, sin embargo, en este caso, hubo algunas cosas que me gustaron mucho y otras la verdad no tanto.

  Yo soy muy fan y admiradora de Nicolas Cage desde que era niña, siempre me gustaron todas sus películas, tanto por la trama, pero más que todo por su actuación en ellas. Sin embargo, después de tantos años inactivo, él está retomando nuevamente el mundo cinematográfico pero esta vez, a mi parecer, ha decaído en cuanto a calidad actoral, así como trabajar en películas de bajo presupuesto.

  La verdad, desconozco las razones de esto, no sé si fue el abuso que tuvo de las drogas o el alcohol, pero el hecho es que desde entonces no es el mismo y se ha querido reinventar intentando trabajar en diferentes proyectos cinematográficos. Así que sabiendo esto de antemano, esta película Longlegs la vi sin tener altas expectativas ni esperar nada bueno.

  Esto hizo que me llevara un par de sorpresas que me gustaron mucho de su película y de la trama. Entre ellas resaltan en primera instancia la actuación protagónica de la actriz Maika Monroe, quien ha trabajado en películas que han resultado ser más entretenidas que memorables.

  Como el film llamado La Quinta Ola con Chloë Grace Moretz, donde trabajó como personaje secundario y la verdad no la recuerdo, además de que esa película tampoco me resultó muy buena. Pero el hecho es que en Longlegs, Maika resaltó desde un principio hasta el final.

  Otro aspecto que me gustó bastante de este film fue el toque antiguo que le hicieron a las imágenes y a la filmación en sí, con toques de estilo clásico del cine de terror que la verdad le dan un plus interesante a la trama y el desarrollo de la historia.

  En cuanto al tema demoniaco desglosado en la historia, pienso que pudieron hacer algo mejor, es decir, desarrollarlo más terroríficamente o con más suspenso. El final me pareció como una burla y fue lo que no me gustó. Así como tampoco me gustó el mal maquillaje que le hicieron a Nicolas Cage, es decir, a leguas se notaba que era una máscara hecha de prótesis mal colocadas.

  En cuanto a la actuación de Cage debo decir que estuvo bien, no fue genial ni destacable, sólo bien, como si su esfuerzo no fuera hecho con mucho entusiasmo, por lo que pienso que pudo conectar más con su lado psicópata y mostrar toques más extravagantes, pero dentro de todo, hizo un buen trabajo y me alegré al verlo de vuelta.

  Así que, si te gusta este tipo de género del terror, con toques más psicológicos que de miedo, así como también si eres muy fan de este gran actor, te invito a que le des una oportunidad. De mi parte la recomiendo y le otorgo unas 4 de 5 Estrellitas Doradas por hacer una película bastante entretenida e intrigante a nivel general:

  Greetings @cinetv community. I'm here again to share with you my opinion about a horror film I saw last night called LONGLEGS. And well, I basically gave it a chance because of its plot and also knowing that the great Nicolas Cage was working in it. So pour yourself a cup of coffee or tea, and enjoy these lines I wrote about the movie, without spoilers.

  This movie was released this year and I was very surprised to see that one of its protagonists was Nicolas Cage. As well as he also participated as a producer of it. And well the plot itself revolves around an FBI detective investigating the case of a serial killer known as Longlegs.

  This one usually murders entire families whose daughters have birthdays on specific days of the month and in addition to this, the plot denotes themes of demonic possession and the occult. For me, this horror theme is usually my favorite in all aspects, however, in this case, there were some things I really liked and others not so much.

  I have been a big fan and admirer of Nicolas Cage since I was a child, I always liked all his movies, both for the plot, but mostly for his acting in them. However, after so many years of inactivity, he is returning again to the film world but this time, in my opinion, he has declined in terms of acting quality, as well as working in low budget films.

  The truth, I don't know the reasons for this, I don't know if it was the abuse he had of drugs or alcohol, but the fact is that since then he is not the same and has wanted to reinvent himself trying to work in different film projects. So knowing this beforehand, I watched this movie Longlegs without having high expectations or expecting anything good.

  This led me to a couple of surprises that I really liked about the film and the plot. Among them, first of all, the starring performance of the actress Maika Monroe, who has worked on films that have turned out to be more entertaining than memorable.

  Like the film called The Fifth Wave with Chloë Grace Moretz, where she worked as a supporting character and I don't really remember her, plus I didn't think that film was very good either. But the fact is that in Longlegs, Maika stood out from the beginning to the end.

  Another aspect that I liked a lot about this film was the antique touch that they gave to the images and the filming itself, with touches of classic horror film style that really give an interesting plus to the plot and the development of the story.

  As for the demonic theme broken down in the story, I think they could have done something better, i.e. developed it more terrifyingly or with more suspense. The ending seemed like a mockery to me and that's what I didn't like. I also didn't like the bad make-up they did on Nicolas Cage, I mean, you could tell he was a mask made of badly placed prosthetics.

  As for Cage's performance I must say it was okay, not great or outstanding, just okay, as if his effort wasn't done with much enthusiasm, so I think he could have connected more with his psychopathic side and showed more extravagant touches, but within everything, he did a good job and I was glad to see him back.

  So, if you like this kind of horror genre, with more psychological than scary touches, as well as if you are a big fan of this great actor, I invite you to give it a chance. For my part, I recommend it and I give it a 4 out of 5 Little Golden Stars for making a very entertaining and intriguing movie in general:

@pannavi you could try posting this in some movie review subreddits as well, not just your own wall on reddit. Try for instance googling movie subreddits and you ought to find a few. :)

I have posted in several communities there, but it seems that I don't meet certain requirements and they silence my post. I'm a very new user and don't have much of a thing called Karma. I don't know how to generate it, so I post it on my wall.

But if you have any advice on how to improve in that regard, I would appreciate it since I don't have much knowledge of how Reddit works.

Yeah no worries, it's quite complicated since every subreddit has its own rules and the big ones are very strict. I'd suggest maybe looking for smaller ones through google search that may fit towards your genre of posts, they're usually not as strict and you may get some extra views and engagement which is always great.

Oh I see, I hadn't taken that detail into account, I was going for the ones with more subscribers lol but if the small ones can give me a chance, I'm leaning that way. Thanks so much for the info! 💕
