      Audience Member One of those who's the hero, who's the villain movies. It's more like real life, everyone's a bit of both. A man's just trying to protect his family after an unfortunate accident, a confused and bitter young girl's mind is fixed on vengeance. The movie comes across with some pretty damn realistic situations. And Kudos for Ester Expósito (Sylvia) in creating the most annoying teenage girl we've seen in a long time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member An exhausted guy and his worst night ever plus a teenager girl who's selfish enough to not identified when her friend was dead. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Gianmarco R In my opinion this film is a good film, very interesting and particular that manages to make you almost cheer for the murderer and you can never make you understand the truth until the end where the desire to return to your family takes over and stop cheer for the killer. However, this film tries to have a profound morality, but it does not succeed and this makes it heavy and unwary Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/06/20 Full Review Audience Member Boring to the point of exhaustion, this Spanish slow-burn never reaches a concrete point but benefits from valid performances by its leads. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member interesting and little bit disturbing Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review adam b A dark film that is okay but extremely forgettable Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Dark crime drama has drug use, brutal violence, swearing. Rated: 2/5 Jan 9, 2019 Full Review Alberto Corona Sensacine Marty would be proud. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Sep 19, 2018 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) The director shows an acceptable management of tension, the story is well diversified, but much of what is told exceeds the credible and goes into the unheard of. [Full Review in Spanish] Sep 7, 2018 Full Review Santiago Alverú Cinemanía (Spain) [Actor Julián] Villagrán shines here. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Sep 4, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
