| Laramie Movie ScopeRobert RotenAn intriguing movie with a split personality. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasA beautifully crafted, complex and absorbing family drama. |
| User Reviewanthony rInteresting movie. very good movie excellent!! This is a Spanish drama (melodrama) with a little bit of mystery twist tossed in. Rich Family Crazy father who is dying. Medical decisions to be made. Leonardo Sbaraglia and Fernando Fernan Gomez are great in their roles. Of Course F F Gomez is really one of the grand old actors of all time on the Spanish stage and screen. Geraldine Chapman is also of course fabulous!! I would comment much more on the plot --except to say that the complex mysterious family matter does resolve themselves and the old man dies and the Mom proves what a bitch she is.!! A lot happens in between and its interesting moving fare. I also especially enjoyed the music in this film. I have a some what hi end audiophile system I play my movie DVD s with. The entry music and first 15 minutes or so of music sounded especially clear crisp and REAL!! Very exotic transparent and clear Really Excellent Music and Sound!! Be sure and read the review by the guy on the Boston Globe. Anyway I really enjoyed this movie 4 stars maybe 5 stars excellent movie!! |
| User ReviewMassimo SMUST SEE. Once again proves that there is intelligence out there in movie making (Even if it's not in the U.S.). Actual suspense, intrigue, mystery, drama . . . all with out a big budget. MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER. |
| User ReviewGabo LUna buena sorpresa del cable�. Esta pelicula me mantuvo interesado en la trama todo el tiempo, me gusto la historia aunque creo que tenia mucho mas potencial, aun asi es un muy buen drama que te engancha y que cuenta con buenas actuaciones y dirección. |
| User ReviewMari Bone of the best films i watched this year so far. i love how this family drama unfolded through the conventions of a film noir. |
| User Reviewcli oMaravillosa pelicula de conflictos familiares y de como nos sentimos indefensos siendo ancianos y perdiendo facultades..última vez que he visto en cine al gran Fernando F.Gomez y siempre agradable ver a Leonardo Sbaraglia y a Geraldine Chaplin. |
| User ReviewFrancisco BLa película de Miguel Hernández es de esas que, cuando la terminas de ver, te dices que le falta algo, algo que no sabes bien qué es, pero que la película no termina de convencerte. Quizás sea el final, un poco decepcionante con respecto al resto de la cinta. Porque la trama es interesante, te engancha desde el principio, y en todo momento la película mantiene su ritmo. Unas interpretaciones magistrales de ese monstruo llamado Fernando Fernán Gómez, una espléndida Geraldine Chaplin, y un buen Leonardo Sbaraglia. Un saludo! |
| User ReviewTKL THay Leo Leo, pero que bueno estas!!!!! Esta pelicual es kind of lenta, muy buena actuacion, en un momento llegue a pensar que el tipo estaba realmente enfermo!!! cautivadora e interesante, no se la pierdan!!!! |
| User ReviewPrivate UThis is a wonderful movie. It is the story of a family whose millionaire grandfather is dying in a hospital in Paris. You see all his relatives arriving from Spain and Argentina to be by side in his final days. But there is a secret to be uncovered. It has every component of a complicated movie ! Enjoy it ! J |
