Los Rose (2025)★ 6.8/10

Una película entretenida de ver, humor negro fantástico pero no me gustó el final.

Lo explícito que incomoda, que da risa, que juega con esa fragilidad de lo correcto que tiene la sociedad es el gran acierto de la película. Hablar de las relaciones desde su carácter crudo que contiene en sí mismo una belleza entre tanta incertidumbre. Sentir el miedo no desde la vulnerabilidad como algo frágil sino como algo peligroso.

Obviamente, no es la representación más realista de un divorcio, pero es muy divertida de ver.
Todos los chistes funcionan a la perfección (a excepción de los de un personaje). La construcción de los personajes está en las sutilezas y se hace de inmediato.
Así tenemos un show de odio/amor/odio que funciona muy bien.

Una historia de una familia como muchas otras, donde la pareja al inicio se complementan pero luego todo se convierte en una rivalidad casi extenuante y que tiene un final que te sorprende.
Comedia, drama, acción y hasta romance, eso resume esta película.

From the writer of THE FAVORITE and POOR THINGS, and from the director who brought us the AUSTIN POWERS trilogy, comes a remake of a movie directed by Danny DeVito, which was based on a book, this, is THE ROSES. It was love at first sight for Theo and Ivy. Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch) is a very talented architect, Ivy (Olivia Coleman) is a very talented chef. Fast forward 10 years and the foundation of their relationship begins to crack. This is a movie about two people in a tempestuous relationship trying to stay together, without having the emotional skillset to do so. Throughout the film, I had a strange feeling. No, it wasn’t gas. Yes, their British banter back and forth is mostly hilarious (great writing, no notes), but I guess I was waiting for either of them to grow up. I understand that’s not the point of the movie, but some moments felt a little too sad, or a little too real. Cumberbatch and Coleman have amazing chemistry, which seems like an oxymoron in this context. Theo and Ivy’s friends are Barry (Andy Samberg) and Amy (Kate McKinnon), who were fun to see, but I’m not sure they tonally fit in this story. I laughed quite a bit, but like a toxic relationship, it eventually became a downer. Look at me, talking like I’ve actually been in a relationship before. Overall, THE ROSES feels like a somewhat unnecessary remake, but I still had fun laughing at a horny Kate McKinnon, Benedict’s reactions to her, and Olivia cursing absolutely never gets old.
