Juan Miguel Azpiroz

Juan Miguel Azpiroz? Oh, this guy’s got a thing for high-octane cinema, no joke. If you’ve caught Boss Level, The Gunman, or Copshop, you’ve seen his fingerprints all over those gritty, pulse-pounding scenes. He’s not the type to chase the spotlight, but his work behind the camera—especially in action thrillers—just smacks you right in the face. You’ll notice his knack for making chaos look like pure art. In Boss Level (2020), every explosion, every gunshot, every wild, time-loop twist—yeah, that’s Azpiroz putting in overtime, making sure your heart rate’s doing double time. The Gunman (2015)? You can practically feel the sweat and adrenaline leaping off the screen, thanks to his eye for kinetic movement and atmosphere. And Copshop (2021) turns what could’ve been a paint-by-numbers shoot ‘em up into this tense, stylish, almost noir-ish slugfest. Azpiroz seems to thrive on the edge, balancing slick visuals with a sense of grounded, lived-in grit. There’s a rawness to his style, like he’s not afraid to let things get a little ugly or chaotic, just to keep you hooked. He doesn’t mess around with glossy, over-produced fluff—nah, it’s all punch, snap, and sizzle. If you’re into movies that keep your nerves jangling and your eyes glued to the screen, Azpiroz’s filmography is basically a crash course in how to do action right.
