Carlos, This confusing behaviour results from an early goof in the design of the movie architecture which has subsequently been fixed in the open-source code and will be present in future PyMOL 1.1 builds.
For now however, you need to program camera motion for movies explicitly using commands like turn, rotate, movie.rock, movie.roll, mview, etc., or use one of the add-on packages (e.g. http://www.pymolwiki.org/index.php/EMovie ).
