  Kill The Bullfighters! Stop The Corrida Slaughtering!
  A review of Corrida
  by matteo prezioso on 08/20/2005
  That's right, I don't see why not. It is unbelievable to think that in this age people still go to see corridas all around the world. Actually, it is quite sickening. Ok so I don't like corridas. But that's not entirely true. See, I enjoy the moment in which the bull corners the bullfighter and takes his short revenge. Revenge for the bull's life is doomed anyway pretty much...

  I don't really know what else to say about your 'Corrida.' It iis not a short to begin with for there is no story to it. Now don't try to convince me that there is a story in it please for there is none. TS is not the place to upload such things. And I am not talking about the cruelty on animals and all that. I meant that had you read the rules, any upload here on TS has to - among many things - have a story.
  
  Technically try to lock the camera exposure. You followed the action carefully and showed a certain talent in picking the right stuff at the right time.

  Very well edited montage, full of action. The use of two cameras give the film a very professional look. I'm not very fond of bullfighting, in spite I'm Latina, but in Argentina we don't find it very appealing, anyway, as a piece of filmmaking is very well done. Congrats.

  I must say i've never been to abullfight and this was the first time i've ever evenseen one in action. So they do kill the bull. I dont know the senerio in wicth this footag was filmed so i dont know if this would be possible, but i would have interveiwed the madidors or got some B role of the bulls and preperation that goes into a bull fight . Someone like me who really has... I must say i've never been to abullfight and this was the first time i've ever evenseen one in action. So they do kill the bull.

Someone like me who really has never seen abull fight would want to know more about the process in wicth a person goes threw to become a bullfighter.I however I do know there held in high regards socialy in there culture and have sex appeal that also could have been expolited. But the content of your shots were great. there just wasnt a backing story to them. Like what side of the fence are you on, the fighter or the bull, are you happry to be there or are you pissed that a bull is being slaughterd for sport?I love the shots and the Quote added a little more drama to it. read

  corrida review...
  A review of Corrida
  by blackgrrrl on 09/29/2004
  The camerawork is pretty good. Good use of quotes by famous people. The edits are very nice and the music is very good. The images are quite beautiful, wonderful vibrant colors. You failed to at least come up with any opening titles or even closing credits. You could have at least given the viewer some info on bullfighting. Continued Success!

  CORRIDA
  A review of Corrida
  by Muloe on 09/02/2004
  More documentary than filmic, I thought this film fell short somehow. It was compelling - bullfighting is a controversial sport and graphic shots of it are always bound to stir a reaction. I feel that the access the filmmaker had to the sport could have been put to better use. Interviews with the fighters may have been appropriate as would have interviews with critics of the... More documentary than filmic, I thought this film fell short somehow. It was compelling - bullfighting is a controversial sport and graphic shots of it are always bound to stir a reaction. I feel that the access the filmmaker had to the sport could have been put to better use. Interviews with the fighters may have been appropriate as would have interviews with critics of the sport. I think it was too short and could have been better planned and edited. This doesn't mean to say that the filmmaker couldn't (and doesn't) produce well crafted works of fiction. As documentaries go, it was sensationalist with no real purpose or narrative. Sorry to be so negative but it really didn't do anything for me. Best of luck to the filmmaker with future projects. read

  Violence and Ego
  A review of Corrida
  by uther74 on 07/06/2004
  This picture gave a great depiction of then nature of man as a violence-craving, ego-driven species bent on destruction not for any civil or noble gain but for sheer entertainment and monetary value. I enjoyed this film thoroughly. Although, on another note, I must say it ended rather abruptly. But its short length was part of its charm and entertainment.

  by arthouse on 03/24/2004
  Hey for running less than 1 minute, this film managed to get right to the meat of its point. I mean, it was intensely grotesque and carnal, and it made the point that an animal was slaughtered for a minute of joy. This film was very engaging and worked well as cinema verity. It could have been a bit stronger with a little more build up and some titles to finish it off. Ole!... Hey for running less than 1 minute, this film managed to get right to the meat of its point.

  Nice visuals
  A review of Corrida
  by Hal Jordan on 02/13/2004
  I guess there really isn't a story to this one. The images were very compelling and well captured. However, beyond the spectacle value of watching actual bullfights, I'm left feeling kind of empty. Good documentaries, to my mind, often explore the two sides of some sort of conflict. While there certainly is conflict in this footage, there is nothing to show the two sides...

Good documentaries, to my mind, often explore the two sides of some sort of conflict. While there certainly is conflict in this footage, there is nothing to show the two sides of bullfighting (pros and cons of killing animals as sport). So I guess this is a teaser for something or just an exhibition. So I guess it works, but it doesn't aim to do a whole lot, really. read

  The running time of this film is less than one minute. In that minute you will see some great video footage of real live bull fights. The bulls are stuck with sharp swords. Sometimes the bull fighter is injured by the bull. It is hard to pass off a series of shots that total less than a minute with no narrative or STORY to tell. I guess it does tell a story and it made... The running time of this film is less than one minute. In that minute you will see some great video footage of real live bull fights. The bulls are stuck with sharp swords. Sometimes the bull fighter is injured by the bull. It is hard to pass off a series of shots that total less than a minute with no narrative or STORY to tell. I guess it does tell a story and it made me interested to maybe learn some more about bul fighting. I think this short is more like a tv commercial to advertise a bull fighting arena opening at a location near me. read
