Torrente 5 (2014)

Pure trash!! A reflection of the spiritual state of the director, actors...

[1/10 · 5 September 2017]

What a way to waste $8 million, the cost to produce this garbage ... Another example of the superficial, cheap, insensitive, degrading, and rotten content that most of the world of cinema has become ... just one out of ten thousand films produced nowadays are worth watching. It's the first time I watch one of these films (Torrente) from beginning to end... and it truly depicts the spiritual poverty inside the director, Santiago Segura ... Recently I heard a very remarkable producer and actor, named Eduardo Verastegui, saying that what is produced in Hollywood or any other place where films and TV shows are made ... is simply the reflection of that which is in the heart of the producer, director, and actor ... That's right. The Kendrick brothers know that well. You can produce a film to inspire and bless millions of marriages such as Fireproof, or you can produce this type of Torrente series garbage to entertain and degrade women and men. How sad that some of the most trashy films I have ever seen are produced in Spain. As Spaniard, I feel ashamed... but the US or other countries are not that different. I hope these people who produce cheap entertainment at very high cost of production will change their hearts and start to produce something that has a little of substance and depth. How much talent wasted. Joaquin Fenollar
