Jhosep G 06/24/2024 The way this movie encapsulates the despair that comes with a passion, and the fear of losing it is just perfect. Great characters with whom anyone can relate. Only thing I would have like to see more would be more insight on Norma, the director, and the effect she had on other dancers. See more Daniel G 02/22/2023 Magical and worrying study of the world of ballet and potential depression, besides the lives of Generation Z. It just overextended its welcome, though a lot of that extra material was a wonderful choreography of Giselle, a famous ballet whose name I knew, but whose story I didn't. See more 06/10/2022 The main message underpinning this movie (the pressure experienced by ballet dancers), especially the deterioration of dancers' mental health, has been presented many times before (for example, "Black Swan"). In addition, the movie is mainly monotonous and sends mixed messages, such as whether a lesbian relationship may occur between Irene and Aurora or whether a cosmic connection exists between the minds of these two ballerinas. Mostly, the plot is like waiting for a kettle to boil and, in the last few seconds of the movie, the kettle just blows up. Well, if these two ballerinas were going to end up as their predecessor did (Maria), what was the point of their collective suffering if they were unable to break the vicious circle? I would have hoped for a more transcendental ending where the main characters gain depth of their mental health issues and traumas and work towards a meaningful life, rather than just killing themselves. Although the dancing performances were divine, the 15 minutes of dancing at the very end of the movie were too much for me, and I got bored. These 15 minutes of performances, followed by the sudden suicide of the two ballerinas, left me out of balance. In my opinion, the plot could have been improved by better balancing action with monotony and sending a more hopeful message. See more 04/13/2022 Buena película. Buen argumento. Buena actuación.
