sftrojan This film is infinitely better than the 5-Star average it has received. While not a cinema blockbuster, it's more of an art house film with twist or two! Playing on the dark humor of films like "Relatos Salvages," this film, capitalizes on the excess of the 1980's exploiting everything we love to hate but can't wait to watch again! Part of its genious is treating difficult themes subtly while smashing them over our heads! Brilliant directing, writing and acting! I eaherly await Natalia Meta's next project!
BILLYBOY-10 This is a terrific film and has only 5 reviews all 10 & 9, so how come only 5.4? It deserves at least 6.8 since it's a really good film beginning to way amazing end. All performances are top notch and the story is super. Highly recommend.
The_Cool_Critic While IMDb movie ratings are typically on the spot, the rating for this film is one of those few instances where it is seriously off the mark. The movie deserves a definitely higher rating for it is one of those few movies that intelligently explore new terrain in a done to death genre in cinema -- which in this case is the investigative crime thriller.The premise of the film centers around the murder of the scion of a wealthy family and the investigation that follows.Damien Bichir and Chino Darin are the two leads here involved in the investigation and their performances perfectly complement the zany screenplay and apt writing. Although it is understandable that the movie lacked the mega millions that bankroll a Hollywood studio production, the execution here in terms of acting, photography, writing and the soundtrack is as good as it gets. Also, props to the makers for a surprisingly accurate recreation of the 80s ambiance without getting kitschy or tacky. The story has plenty of interesting twists, and that along with the excellent chemistry shared by the two male leads makes this one a must watch. For its unusual treatment and excellent production, this one gets an almost- perfect rating from me. Hopefully, we will see a sequel.
aleksandarsk I loved this movie. I can't understand the low rating. It's very well written, acted and directed. It's a great character study, there is a good deal of comedy in it, as well as suspense and drama. It's also very believable overall. The 80s ambient is very well recreated, not only through the music and the clothes, but also people's attitudes and mentality, and therefore it compliments the plot. It's hard to say anything more without revealing any spoilers, but if you'd like some light entertainment with a good movie that doesn't take itself too seriously and yet it delivers on so many levels and succeeds to engage, to entertain and surprisingly even to make you reflect about life on a deeper level, this movie is for you. All I can say is the movie is good , and you can make whatever you want from it - a light evening entertainment or a good psychological and character study.
