Fanático

Robert De Niro no quería hacer este proyecto, pero Tony Scott habló tanto con él hasta que lo convenció. Y eso fue un error. Fanático es un thriller terrible, y el actor que lo protagoniza tiene un papel aún más terrible. Cuando no hay un buen guión, ni siquiera los filtros de cámara más sofisticados sirven de nada.

Gil is a baseball-obsessed idiot, while Bob is obsessed by the number 11. It was tough to work with this material. Under Tony Scott, the audiovisual is a rolling stone that, with its dynamism, camera maneuvers, and thunderous music, keeps The Fan in the game for a long time, but winning against content that turns into farce was just as difficult as if the Giants wanted to score with home plate on Alcatraz's grounds. It seems that when Bobby doesn’t hitch a ride on the chassis, his stalking efforts aren’t quite up to Max's standards. (31.01.2022)

Ridley Scott's direction is, as always, dynamic and his camera tricks look good, but the script in this case is very weak, and the story itself is actually nonsense. I didn't like Wesley Snipes at all (where is his charisma from the Blade series), and Robert De Niro has such a terrible role that the creators might not have been serious about it. (22.01.2005)
