10,000 Km Audience Reviews

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
perfecthuman This film is about intimacy, love, departure, loneliness, anguish, loyalty, depression, and all these feelings are portrayed in the best possible way. Man, look at the facial expressions of both when they are video calling with each other, and the online seduction chat sequence, they both nailed it. The hunger for love in the eyes of the Sergi and the silent but intense feelings of Alex for Sergi are brilliantly portrayed. Though they both were in contact on regular basis, but the fading intimacy of online chat and the ever increasing urge for physical relationship depart them. The technology can keep you in touch but not intact. Acting wise, David Verdaguer (Sergi) excels in his role and exceeds the expectations. He is vibrant, compromising, passionate, loving, loyal and so much loving. I feel to be in love with him. Natalia Tena (Alex) as a restrained lover speaks with her eyes and her body language is so easy to comprehend. Overall, the film rests on the towering performances of these two. The premise is simple, intriguing and strong, and the tone of the film changes subtly but fabulously. Oh man, I can watch this film over and over again, and that too for David especially. His cuteness, his style of romance, his caring nature, and his tears, all were so so real and lovable. I am simply in love with this film.
ma-cortes A couple in one of the greatest romances in recent years but separated in a long distance . It deals with two people in love , Alex (Natalia Tena) and Sergi (David Verdaguer) ; two flats - one in Barcelona and another on in L.A. - and the frames of their past , present and future . One year apart , with a continent between them , this couple must rely on modern technology to keep their relationship alive . The story tracks the two as they cling to their relationship by video chats , phone calls and email . This laptop-set story deals with a special romance in which video cameras capture everything , and the internet has turned into a cesspool of surveillance and communication . Can love survive 10,000km? ."10.000 Km" follows the story of two young lovers , well portrayed by "Game of Thrones" and Harry Potter player Natalia Tena and David Verdaguer , as she leaves Barcelona for a year-long work opportunity in Los Angeles . This is a well-crafted and strikingly intimate film though monotonous about a separated couple in a long distance , as when you are oceans apart in love , you have to find creative ways to connect . We immediately see that the story is going to be told from some unorthodox perspectives as many scenes are broadcasting through a computer monitor . Despite its low budget the picture manages to be intelligent , but also a little bit boring and hard to follow . The good thing about this film is that the director made it on a limited budget only having to do a few sets , yet the movie works on many levels but is constantly reconfigured . This film had U.S. theatrical release , bowing it in the U.S. on 13 screens in 13 cities and was even presented to international distributors in Cannes . Carlos Marques-Marcet's long-distance love story "10,000 Km," relies heavily on moving romance supported by technological means such as e-mail , Google Earth , Skype , Facebook and WhatsApp . As the flick is set in just two places in Sergi's Barcelona flat and Alex's LA apartment . As Alex/Natalia Tena shows from her computer : photographs , streets , avenues and Hollywood boulevard . The main question results to be : Just how interconnected can one couple be while living oceans apart ? . The final result is an offbeat love story that's captivating , in spite of not being all that fun or especially thoughtful , neither thought-provoking . Interpretation by two actors is frankly good , David Verdaguer and Natalia Tena give reality their roles , the latter replaced Bárbara Lennie unavailable due to prior commitments . Tena and Verdaguer won the acting duo award at South by Southwest following the film's world premiere for their performances as a couple separated by 10,000 kilometers . The movie , a Lastor Media Production in co-production with La Panda, was shot in Barcelona . Carlos Marques-Marcet directed from a script he co-wrote with Clara Roquet . The motion picture was innovative and originally directed by Carlos Marques-Marcet , even Broad Green Pictures acquired U.S. distribution and international sales rights from Visit Films for this love story "10.000 Km" . Here Carlos Marques adapts to the times and find a particular romance in the ways people are living today . Carlos Marques-Marcet is a fine editor and director , known for Shorts such as The Yellow Ribbon (2012) and I'll Be Alone (2010) , being his first film : It Felt Like Love (2013) , followed by this 10.000 Km (2014), and is shooting : 6 years (2015) .
flaiky Just a quick review to encourage people to see this lovely, impressive film:10,000km is a beautiful drama about the difficulties of long-distance relationships. The entire film consists of interactions between a couple (we never see anyone else or leave their flats), mostly through skype or messaging. But believe it or not, it's completely enthralling throughout. The two leads are excellent, bringing both humour and deep emotion to their characters, while the director - in his feature debut - pulls in a variety of tricks to keep things interesting. An honest, quietly powerful film that I hope gets the recognition it deserves. Watch it if you get the chance, and then spread the word.
Adam Kuang Just watched this movie in the Bergen International Film Festival. I didn't watch so many movies in this festival. I choose which ones I want to watch very carefully by title, and description of the movies. "10,000 KM" was the first one I chose that I was going to watch and I enjoyed every second of it from the beginning to the end.I have actually always wanted to write a script or shoot a movie about the internet relationship IF I were a write or a director. It is difficult, and can be challenging. A lot of people have done that, but I haven't seen anyone has done it successfully. However, Carlos Marques-Marcet nailed it, just the way as I wanted it to be, or even better. I don't know how it feels for elder people who don't use internet or even anyone who doesn't have such experience before. But to me, it totally worked. The cast is simple, the conversation is raw but real, the cinematography is beautiful, while the theme of the movie is complex and deep.There were actually only two characters, the leading actor and actress in this movie. The performance is outstanding, both of them. It couldn't support such a movie without excellent performances. In a good movie, the viewer usually could fit himself in one of the roles and feel for it. While in "10,000 KM", I could fit myself in both of them, more for Sergi(played by David Verdaguer) probably. I have gone through exactly the same thing as the couple did in the movie. Every act, every word, and every thought was so real. When they were questioning each other, they were also questioning themselves. Sometimes, you already knew it from your first thought, but then you try to find different ways to prove it wrong, but failed. What I like about this movie is that it didn't give the audience any suggestions, or any conclusion. You knew it from the first second of the scene, and just wanted to prove it throughout the whole movie. The director has done an excellent job by proving it to you.As for me, I came thousands miles from China to Norway because of a long distance relationship. Now I'm ending up living here for almost ten years, alone. I gave the movie 10 out of 10, one point was from my own similar experience.
