Why watch this film?
Taking advantage of the good moment of Spanish suspense, with films like 'The Well', 'The Body' and 'A Contratempo', the feature film 'El Practicante' tries to grab all the references of the genre to tell its story. In it, the viewer is invited to enter the house and life of Angel (Mario Casas, also seen in 'A Contratempo'). Paramedic, he has a monotonous relationship with his wife (Déborah François, the best on screen) while trying to get pregnant. However, the relationship ends when he has an accident and becomes paraplegic. This is the beginning, then, of an obsession story, in the style of 'Misery', of this man in a wheelchair with his wife. It's a pity, however, that director Carles Torras ends up embracing all the clichés and platitudes of the genre, without ever imprinting any originality or great moment of the story. 'El Practicante', thus, is a monotonous movie, in its development and conclusion, which never manages to reach what it really wants. But still, you can't say it's a waste of time for those who are looking for, precisely, a movie that repeats the emotions, stories and sensations that a suspense can generate.

Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is the unlikely sequel to the feature film that placed the characters of this playful and childlike universe into a world of violence and horror. However, don't expect a production as weak as the previous film: with the success of the first installment at the box office, the production had more money to invest, and thus Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 manages to be more realistic, violent, and impressive compared to the first film. The characters' masks are much scarier, and it ceases to be a complete joke. It's still difficult to take the film entirely seriously, especially with this bizarre premise of Pooh and his friends seeking bloody revenge, but you can already feel more fear and, above all, immerse yourself in the wave of violence that the film promotes. To have fun with friends.
