Review of Tony Manero

Tony Manero (2008)
8/10

Warning: Spoilers
I really liked this movie. I wish there was a more solid ending, but it was acceptable. Very good use of using the fascist regime weaving in and out of the story. As many critics have already made us aware, the insane actions performed to satisfy an insane goal by the title character mirror those of the Chilean regime during the same period. Loved the documentary style of film-making. Loved the flawless depiction of a poor, but barely scraping by city. I would say the only thing I would have liked to have seen was some sort of closure to the story. I'm only human. Anyway, awesome otherwise. TONY MANERO should go down as an Indie Classic.
