Watch The Heroes of Evil For Free

Simply A Masterpiece

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

At first sigh, a story about teenagers. vulnerability, frustrations, fears, friendship, need to escape out of society and yourself. but the story is more complex. because the identity crisis represents one of significant traits of our time. the refuge, the sexual ambiguity, the angry, the end and pieces reminding by Of mouse and man are parts of a sort of parable. the need of love/friendship, the obsession of social role, the line between him and us are arguments for define "Los heroes del mal" not exactly as portrait of a fragile age but as support for reflection. a film who, in essence, has a real good virtue - the freshness of the performance of young actors. especialyJorge Clemente giving an admirable character.

The movie does not lack intensity, that is for sure. However, if this is the way schools are nowadays, they should be turned into youth offender centres instead of learning institutions. Unfortunately the movie only presents the behaviour of the character from their point of view, exagerated to the max, with one of the trio with obvious mental problems and who should be institutionalized but instead roams the streets and abuses other people under the pretense of being the avenging victim. Overall, the movie is entertaining but I don't think it was for the right reasons

Aritz is troubled. He takes abuse and tells stories to explain his behavior. He's expansively nihilistic. Estaban is the nice guy who tries to keep Aritz from getting beat up. Estaban falls for the sadness of Aritz and at first there is also a lot of likability. They connect with Sara who has a streak of wildness and is attracted to Estaban, but is pretty unstable in her own way. As the story progresses Aritz spins more and more out of control and Estaban tries to rein him in. Aritz is needy and can't find love anywhere. He keeps asking Estaban and Sara if they love him but can't believe that anyone would or could. I found this story well put together and believable for the most part. Aritz is a charismatic sort who can draw you in.

"Los Heroes Del Mal" or "The Heroes of Evil" is a Spanish drama that centers around 3 "misfit" teenagers who slowly descend down a dark path of sex, drugs and violence. Our three main characters are Aritz, Sarita and Esteban. Esteban, is sort of "the nice guy" archetype. He stands up for Aritz the new kid, when he gets picked on and tries to talk the trio out of doing anything particularly dangerous. Sarita, is your run of the mill tomboy who's character makes a noticeable 180 about 30 minutes into the movie. She goes from being the logical- thinking anti-bullying heroine of the film, to being a hot-headed, ill- tempered, irrational prick.As the film went on, I began to dislike her more and more. Now, the most convoluted character of the movie, Aritz. I can't tell you much about this character as a person,because there is so little to him. As the movie progresses, he shows more and more of his true colors. He is revealed to be a rather problematic card, mentally, emotionally and sexually. In short, he's coco for coco puffs. Now, the bulk of this movie stems from the interactions between our main three characters, which slowly falls apart. They go from being the best of friends to a polygamous relationship to mortal enemies out for each others blood...literally.The three-way relationship soon becomes a relationship between Esteban and Sarita that hurtfully excludes Aritz. Later on the two have a falling out and Sarita detaches herself from Aritz and Esteban entirely. However, what I found most interesting about this movie was the dynamic between its two main male characters, Aritz and Esteban. There are "subtle" hints throughout the movie that Aritz is actually homosexual and in love with Esteban,despite chasing women around for most of the movie.This is made more apparent by the fact that he failed to erect at the sight of naked female in the flesh, when he goes as far as to hold Esteban in his sleep,put his finger in his mouth and even kiss him. When he is rejected he storms off claiming that it was a "Friendly kiss,a kiss among friends."As an American even i know that that isn't a thing, even in Spain...Is it?Now earlier I described Aritz as being "problematic" that is because when you boil it down, we know nothing about him. It's revealed at the end of the movie that he was lying about his backstory, buying most of what he "stole" and even lying about the prostitute that he supposedly murdered and about leaving behind a key chain of Esteban that linked him to the crime. It turned out Aritz had the key chain the whole time. While all of this exposition is being dumped, Esteban and Aritz are chugging down a bag of sleeping pills attempting to commit suicide, at least, that's what Aritz is doing while Esteban is spitting the pills back into a bottle of beer...that they're sharing. This leads to Aritz confessing to his lies,calling out Esteban for "cheating"to no surprise and confessing his love for him and dropping dead as Sarita walks into the room, who I assume heard everything.That was "Los Heroes Del Mal", it has it's issues. Blood Special Effects look terrible, focus is all over the place, characters are inconsistent, plot holes like swish cheese and Jorge Clemente's hilarious over acting.Still, not too bad for something I found for free on Netflix. If you come across it bored out of your mind and either know Spanish and or don't mind subtitles, check it out.
