The Bullfighter

About This Movie

So, 'The Bullfighter' is this quirky comedy that dives into the life of Felipe Fernando de la Fernand, an ex-bullfighter who's really lost his spark. The film has this offbeat tone, blending absurdity and melancholy in a way that’s pretty refreshing. Watching him navigate the mundane life of a parking attendant while trying to stage one last grand bullfight makes for some wild contrasts. You get a real sense of nostalgia and regret woven throughout. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it kind of adds to that whimsical feel. It leans heavily on practical effects to enhance the humor – nothing over-the-top, just enough to keep things grounded. Performances are solid, particularly the lead, who nails the mix of comedy and pathos.
