Netflix is an incredible platform, and it's impressive to see how most of the entertainment networks are now having this type of platform, the progress is great. A few days ago I was thinking about what movies I could watch after finishing my Turkish series: "Love is in the air", and it occurred to me to make a list so as not to leave aside the ones that have caught my attention for a long time.
Comencemos/ Let´s start
Love tactics (Turquía)
As we are in the Turkish wave, let me start with a Netflix premiere, and it is the movie "Love Tactics" starring one of the most acclaimed actresses in Turkey, I saw the trailer and I found it really interesting, although I do feel that it is similar to another American movie that I saw at some point but I don't remember its name, I'll still give it a try because we can't be judging books by their cover right? Hahaha
Love Tactics nos cuenta la historia de como un ejecutivo de publicidad y una bloguera de modas sin fe en el amor apuestan que lograrán que la otra persona se enamore perdidamente de ellos. (Ya les suena la trama verdad? seguro la han visto en versión americana), algo me dice que puede ser muy cliché, pero, no diré que es mala antes de verla.
Love Tactics tells the story of how an advertising executive and a fashion blogger with no faith in love bet that they will make the other person fall head over heels for them. (The plot sounds familiar to you, right? Surely you've seen it in the American version), something tells me that it can be very cliché, but I won't say it's bad before I see it.
A week away (Estados unidos)
A week away or the camp of my life is a movie that has given me an air of Camp Rock and High school musical (Disney), really, the trailer has seemed so great, it has a bonus that always catches me and it is the music, the production looks good, it has good environments, and the actors have participated in series and movies that I liked.
A week away nos cuenta como un problemático adolescente (Will) tiene un fuerte altercado con la justicia que termina dejandolo en un importante laberinto del que no conoce la salida: ir a un centro de detención de menores o asistir a un campamento de verano cristiano. Al principio es como todo, le costará bastante adaptarse, más aun si no pone de su parte, pero cuando al fin decide intentarlo Will logra encontrar algo más que la salida del laberinto, encontró un amor honesto y bonito y descubrió nuevamente lo que es sentir que perteneces a un lugar.
A week away tells us how a troubled teenager (Will) has a strong altercation with the law that ends up leaving him in an important labyrinth from which he does not know the way out: go to a juvenile detention center or attend a Christian summer camp. At first it's like everything, it will cost him a lot to adapt, even more so if he doesn't do his part, but when he finally decides to try Will manages to find something more than the way out of the labyrinth, he found an honest and beautiful love and discovered again what it is to feel that you belong to a place.
Diarios de un intercambio (Brasil)
I think the first impression that this movie gave me was that of a somewhat dazed story hahaha but then I remembered that I had seen some movies with the same protagonist, and they were not bad.
La historia gira alrededor de dos amigas que ingresan a un programa de intercambio pensando que eso solucionaría todos sus problemas, muchas cosas se complican pero un giro inesperado las llevará a la pintorescas montañas de California, donde vivirán un sin fin de aventuras descabelladas y donde comprenderán que hacer realidad sus sueños podría sorprenderlas de formas diferentes.
The story revolves around two friends who enter an exchange program thinking that it would solve all their problems, many things get complicated but an unexpected turn will take them to the picturesque mountains of California, where they will live endless crazy adventures and where they will understand that making their dreams come true could surprise them in different ways.
Ahí te encargo (Mexico)
I like Mexican movies, I find them really funny, and I really like how the protagonists of this movie act, Mauricio Ochmann and Esmeralda Pimentel are great, their novels always made me laugh which makes me feel that this movie will make me laugh just the same.
Les cuento un poco de que va la historia, Alex es un publicista genial y esta felizmente casado con Ceci, una abogado impresionante. Pero Alex siente que algo le falta a su vida para ser perfecta, hay algo que necesita encajar en su vida, y eso es cumplir su rol de padre, sin embargo, Ceci no está realmente entusiasmada con la idea de ser madre. Justo cuando Ceci recibe una gran oportunidad laboral, Alex encuentra la forma de tener lo que siempre ha querido, aunque no imaginó que sus decisiones pondrían su vida patas para arriba.
I tell you a little about the story, Alex is a great publicist and is happily married to Ceci, an impressive lawyer. But Alex feels that something is missing in his life to be perfect, there is something that needs to fit in his life, and that is to fulfill his role as a father, however, Ceci is not really enthusiastic about the idea of being a mother. . Just when Ceci receives a great job opportunity, Alex finds a way to have what he has always wanted, although he did not imagine that his decisions would turn his life upside down.
Lo que me llama la atención de esta peli también es el como hacen foco en el tema de: "No por ser mujer debes ser madre, o encargarte del hogar, o tener que cumplir con cierto rol establecido", me gusta como muestran la libertad de poder elegir que querer ser y hacer con la vida de la persona (independientemente de los estereotipos), también me encantó la iniciativa del protagonista de hacerse responsable de un niño para garantizar que no le pasara nada malo. Creo que será buena.
What catches my attention in this movie is also how they focus on the theme: "Because you're a woman you don't have to be a mother, or take care of the home, or have to fulfill a certain established role", I like how they show freedom of being able to choose what to want to be and do with the person's life (regardless of stereotypes), I also loved the protagonist's initiative to take responsibility for a child to ensure that nothing bad happens to him. I think it will be good.

I love this kind of movies, it's one of the great family movies perfect to watch with popcorn or some sweets, Kevin James (They're like kids, mall guard, etc...) is a great actor and Taylor Lautner is great ( Non scape, twilight, etc...), many people have positively criticized this movie, saying that it is a great lesson in ethics and discipline.
La historia nos muestra al entrenador en jefe de los New Orleans Saints, Sean Payton, quien termina con la única opción de entrenar al equipo de fútbol de sexto grado de su hijo luego de haber sido suspendido de su trabajo gracias a un escándalo... Sean nunca fue un padre presente, así que ahora, le tocará hacerse cargo de enmendar los fallos y sanar heridas.
