Product Description
Toby, a cynical but supposedly genius film director finds himself trapped in the outrageous delusions of an old Spanish shoe-maker who believes himself to be Don Quixote. In the course of their comic and increasingly surreal adventures, Toby is forced to confront the tragic repercussions of a film he made in his idealistic youth - a film that changed the hopes and dreams of a small Spanish village forever. Can Toby make amends and regain his humanity? Can Don Quixote survive his madness and imminent death? Or will love conquer all?

Since this is one of my favorite films of all time, I was very anxious about it arriving quickly, and true to the word I was given, it arrived the exact day it was promised. I was overjoyed.
From the witty, dramatic, and sometimes intense script, to the gorgeous sets and costumes, the heart pounding soundtrack, and the greatest performance of Adam Driver's career so far, this movie offered me everything I could ever want from a film, and delivered on every level, plus more.
The only thing that slightly bothered me was that the original poster art for the film wasn't used for the cover of the blu ray, but that's hardly significant. I'm just thankful this film got a blu ray release at all. And the artwork is far form the worst I've seen.
Overall, I believe this film is a must see for everyone, due to its grand and exciting story, flawless performances, heart filled depth of character, and mastery of old fashioned adventure story telling. A triumph of filmmaking, the film truly lives up to its catch phrase...
It is a marvelous day for adventures
Spoilers: It's a strange tale of a pretty selfish and cowardly man (Toby) and the fallout caused by a movie he made in a small Spanish village years ago. Jonathon Pryce is wonderful as the old shoemaker, Javier, who is convinced he is Don Quixote. He really gives an excellent performance and conjured a lot of sympathy from me. Toby falls in love with the village girl, Angelica, who had been in his movie long ago and is all grown up now. I found Toby's character frustrating because he was never able to overcome his selfishness and cowardice, though it seemed that he wanted to at times. Even when he did decide to do something he was ineffective at it. It's as if only by taking on another persona (Don Quixote) was he able to become a braver and more noble person, like he had just given up on Toby and decided to be someone else or was driven to madness by the callousness of those around him and the trauma of having caused Javier's death. The whole Sancho and Quixote weird attraction (because Toby now thought Angelica was Sancho) thing at the end threw me off a bit too. This movie left me not quite sure what to think of it. That being said I do think it was worthwhile and interesting. It will give you something to ponder. ;-)
The only drawback is the plot itself, which suddenly drops in like a dead weight to remind the audience that -- yes -- this movie is actually about Driver's job and securing a contract for his employer with a television commercial rather than trying to get Pryce back home to his small village. With a whimsical medieval costume party, everything gets confusing and its hard to tell what's up from down. Fortunately, or unfortunately, this delivers an end that may be satisfying for some or flat out bizarre for others.
My only question is: Did the ending fit in line with Driver's character arc in the film?
Overall, I enjoyed it, and will definitely watch it again for the silly comedy and perfectly nuanced F-bombs.
By the end of it, my mind was blown and this may be my new favorite movie of all time. Gilliam seamlessly seduced me into a world where I didn't know what was fantasy or reality, with top notch sets and great performances. Honestly, I am glad that we had to wait for the Adam Driver version of this movie versus the original Johnny Depp version, as I don't know how Driver's performance could be topped.
If you view film as a worthy medium for high art, do yourself a favor and watch this.

Vale un buen vistazo, lo merece después de todos los sinsabores que tuvo que pasar la producción.
