Three Steps Above Heaven

muy buena película la recomiendo!

Had to quit the movie after 17 minutes, it was way too silly. And Hache was a too unpleasant character, I wasn't interested in seeing him become a happy new person.

Boring, illogical, silly, and pure teenage drama. Nothing else.

A friend recommended this movie to me when I was young, and I remember actually liking it. However, upon revisiting the film today, my perspective has significantly changed. It is a bad movie. It's referred to as the Spanish Twilight.

[spoiler] Both main characters exhibit toxic traits. The most problematic aspect revolves around the male protagonist, who embodies toxic masculinity.
A list:
- Throws her into a pool;
- orchestrating the destruction of a car while she is inside;
- he spots his mother, he spirals into a frenzy, recklessly driving with Babi, endangering her life;
- Threatens her teacher, holding her dog hostage, so she could pass the class. (kinda funny);
- He manipulates her into lying in court on his behalf;
- He slaps her at the end of the movie.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler] He acts so bad and tough all because his mom cheated on his dad some years ago. [/spoiler]

[spoiler] Babi is so unlikeable. She gets a tattoo of the first letter of his name after being together for what 24 hours? After 5 minutes of finding out his best friend died she starts blaming him for his death. She then cuts contact with him and her best friend. [/spoiler]

Moreover, the emphasis on her coming from a wealthy family seems unnecessary. Hugo ain't broke. He owns a whole-ass motorcycle, his parents have a house and his brother has a huge apartment.

The prevalence of movies like these and their promotion to young girls is deeply concerning. Such films reinforce problematic relationship dynamics and fail to provide healthier and more realistic representations of love, centered on communication, respect, and consent.

Filmmakers must prioritize creating movies that promote healthier relationship dynamics and emphasize essential values like communication, respect, and consent.
