Kevin Thomas Los Angeles Times 04/12/2007
4/5
The film is sustained effortlessly by the charismatic Watling and Tosar, who are among Spain's most popular movie stars. Go to Full Review
V.A. Musetto New York Post 02/09/2007
2/4
The comedy is too broad, lacking the subtlety that the film's high-brow intentions require. Go to Full Review
Stephen Holden New York Times 02/09/2007
4.5/5
The Freudian farce Unconscious is paced so breathlessly that it keeps you panting to keep up with each new plot twist. Go to Full Review

Josh Bell Las Vegas Weekly 05/03/2007
3/5
Oristrell stages funny, madcap scenes around bondage, cross-dressing and incest. Go to Full Review
John Patterson L.A. Weekly 04/12/2007
Laboring in the wide shadow of Almodvar and lacking much in the way of visual distinction, Unconscious compensates with its cast's full-tilt commitment to rip-snorting farce. Go to Full Review

08/24/2014 Intriguing plot twists keeps this film interesting. Movie info here is the wrong one! See more 07/13/2011 It's beautiful, it's funny, it's clever, it's engaging. I loved it. (The synopsis below, though, is incorrect and isn't for this film). See more 06/18/2011 I saw this film twice, and twice I don't get the fuss. Leonor Watling is so distractingly gorgeous as a pregnant woman there's no way one can pay attention to anything else. Luis Tosar is neither charming nor funny. Actually, that goes for all the characters. The suspense and pursuit of the truth seems such a boring drag. The story is divided into several chapters each unrelated to another and they all contribute to nothing but the obscenity in the hope of making it funny. Since when does one become Freudian simply by ridiculing sexuality, adultery and incest? There are at least 5 occasions when the penis size is the source of the so-called humour.... This is nothing but a Carry-On (which are immensely sillier and funnier) film in disguise. See more 01/30/2011 This is one of my favorite foreign films. Check it out if you like amelie, and films with comedic quirks, but heartfelt tone. See more 07/09/2009 Great Movie from Spain. Period Piece 1910s but with a Freudian intellectual sexual twist. Really its kind of a psychiatric literary murder mystery (who done it) with a missing person included. Very witty and comic. Certainly one of the best (if not the best) movie of 2004. I cannot find when it was released. Netflix says 2004 Rt says 2007. Not nominated for anything I know of but should have been. Plot is good and fast paced. ending you would never guess. fantastic cinematography. Clever Witty Comic Original. very good movie four stars maybe five. highly recommended. See more 05/31/2008 I loved this spanish farce, set in Barcelona in the early 20th century. I also Absolutely loved Luis Tosar and shall be looking out for other movies he has done.
