Most helpful review Against The Wind

  • Sensitive, well crafted film, DUBBED !

    Rated - 0.0 stars  
    By a customer from Newcastle, UK , 15 Jun 2005

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Sensitive view of a love affair bordering on erotic obsession between brother and sister. Well acted, particularly by Banderas. Ruined and rendered virtually unwatchable by the appalling dubbing. This can only be necessary for the visually impaired, totally illiterate or utterly lazy !

  • Disturbing Spanish film

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By salmanfan (143 reviews) from London , 28 Mar 2011
    I knew Antonio had done some strange films at the beginning of his career, but this was quite explicit. The sex scenes are quite explicit and it is incest from the start. The film was in Spanish and was dubbed.

    It was a great story and if you are a fan -watch it. Do not know the star who played the main role as his sister but sh was excellent.

    I echo the sentiments of other reviews in respect of the dubbing. Dubbing is truly awful! What is more, there was no option for subtitles. The dubbing makes it difficult to judge the film. However, I watch and enjoy a lot of foreign/art house films and this was one of the worst I've seen in a long time.

  • the problem of dubbing

    Rated - 5.0 stars  
    By a customer from South West, England , 11 Feb 2006
    I could not keep this film for more than 5 minutes on. Absolutely awful dubbing and no original version with subtitles to be able to select. Do not waste your time with this!

  • sensitive exploration of the love between brother

    Rated - 0.0 stars  
    By a customer from North East England , 17 Jun 2005
    a sensitive subject, tackled carefully by Spanish actors, Antonio Banderas gave an excellent peformance which unfortunately was ruined by the fact that the film was dubbed with an American soundtrack.
