Bardem plays a rather basic but attractive spanish stereotype character and Cruz smoulders as usual. Highly enjoyable. If you are familiar with the real Spain I highly recommend this (explicit sex scenes). Review: Hamming it Up! - How many films do you get where a big ham is used as a deadly weapon? No, I'm not joking and its use by Javier Badem (never more svelte and lean) is part of this love story. Sorry to be blunt about this one - if you want to and are expecting to see probably the most beautiful woman making films today, Penelope Cruz, topless, then this is the film for you. Her breasts get kneaded like dough quite a bit in this gently erotic movie. Trouble is, the DVD transfer isn't much better than video quality, so much that is worth watching and filmed in the dark is just a dark grey mush, with an occasional shape looming about. Spanish cinema, for me, started as with many, Pedro Almodovar, often on Film 4. Different, exotic, tantalising, not always good but when he was, he really was. Then, after his Red Squirrel became one of my all-time favourites, Julio Medem and I got his box-set, almost his complete works. Now, finally, to Bigas Luna and the first DVD of three that I've bought of his. Keeping an open mind is both a necessity and a virtue when trying any new director. In Jamon Jamon, he follows themes (or they all followed each other) that are found in both Almodovar's and Medem's works - intense passion, a strong sense of Spanish identity and flair. Flair, as in having Bardem's wannabe bullfighter working in a pork curing plant (hence the ham). Little flourishes and touches that tickle the imagination and keep us interested. The 'love-triangle' scenario is a well-worn one that can get very stodgy and samey; here it is on fire and while to us rather sedate British lovers, the passion's all rather heated and OTT, you can't argue that there's a smoulder here. Yes, it does get a bit ridiculous, enjoyably, in the case of the men's underwear factory that Bardem does modelling for, researching a new line of doggy-panties and less so when the father of one of the daughter's gets on in with the kissing someone else. Gets a bit hazy.... Yes, there are periods of little activity and many will find strange some of the added twists, like the prevalence of pigs as pets. Hmmmm.... Well deserving of four stars, not a classic but a good omen for my other two Luca DVDs. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07895ZV34 | | Aspect Ratio | 16:9 - 1.85:1 | | Best Sellers Rank | 195,223 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 60,723 in Blu-ray | | Customer reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (287) | | Language | Spanish | | Media Format | Blu-ray | | Number of discs | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 1.78 x 19.05 x 13.72 cm; 84 g | | Release date | 30 Jan. 2018 | | Run time | 1 hour and 35 minutes | | Studio | Olive Films | | Subtitles: | English | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Cruz, Penelope - **Format:** Blu-ray - **Language:** Spanish - **Number of discs:** 1 - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 35 minutes ## Images ![Jamon Jamon [Blu-ray] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/514i4hr+3cL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ brillant *by M***D on 21 December 2024* Javier Bardem & Penelope Cruz in early days in a world of all the spanish icons from ham to transhumance sheep droving in a truckstop/brothel on the meseta.
