Jonathan Holland The Hollywood Reporter A brightly colored, eye-catching dark comedy that's inevitably hit-or-miss but never, ever dull ... Aug 23, 2017 Full Review Danielle Davenport One Room With A View A magical realist extravaganza of tragic masculinity, it had us crying with laughter. Rated: 3/5 Feb 21, 2019 Full Review Lisa Nesselson France24 Aggressively and exhaustively original...a very visual film sprinkled with eighties references...I certainly hope this isn't the last film we'll have from this director. Sep 10, 2018 Full Review Ruben Peralta Rigaud Cocalecas It is a funny movie that... remains on course thanks to the charisma of its actors and Pablo Berger's very good direction. [Full review in Spanish] Mar 3, 2018 Full Review Mikel Zorrilla Espinof One of the most stimulating Spanish films of recent times. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 22, 2017 Full Review Irene Crespo Cinemanía (Spain) It's necessary to be very daring to talk about sexism in Spain, the Spain of the abusive husbands, from humor at times and have good results. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Aug 17, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Gail B A most pleasant surprise. Entertaining on so many levels. Perfection to this viewer. Watch and enjoy. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/23 Full Review Gianmarco R Nice movie, perhaps slightly too slow and with too much downtime, for the whole movie it actually seems that nothing happens and everything could be solved in a scarce ten minutes. The film is also quite funny and entertaining, but apart from the protagonists all the other characters are practically useless for the purposes of the plot. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/08/22 Full Review Audience Member As usual in other Berger stories, the dark and the tender, the weird and disgusting and bizarre and even comic combines with the serious. But, somehow, It keeps you intrigued Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member elegant, fresh, just a little bit thrilling, just in the good balance. Yes ,elegant & fresh. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Fantastic! Excellent transition from realty to fantasies, in th story itself and above all visually as the cinema has to be. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Frances H Unusual dark comedy about the possession of a man under hypnosis by a schizophrenic murderer. Some very funny.moments and some very weird ones, too! But intriguing nonetheless! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/20/18 Full Review Read all reviews
