Audience Member A modern take on a tale as old as the mountains. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member muy buena recomendada para todos los colegas. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member In this Spanish hospital drama El Mal Ajeno, it centered Diego (Eduardo Noriega) a doctor specialized to work with chronic patients, in fact, it were the first scenes we saw in the beginning.Heartbreaking stories of what it meant to live with pain for patients were here the main point for understanding that this movie was anything except not the style of medical melodrama Grey`s Anatomy. And it worked quite well in this regard.The movie was built in a clever and original way but however, some issues that did not tie well in the final part.It became more a supernatural thriller that had overlapped some important explanations. Spanish actor Eduardo Noriega demonstrated maturity acting and complied well with being the backbone of the story and therefore he brought the dramatic tension for the movie. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member this was a very good film until they introduced the "mystic" element. from then on, it just turned to meh. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Diego es un doctor de cuidados paliativos, práctico y desconectado de sus emociones. El suicidio de la pareja de una de sus pacientes, la agonía de à (C)sta y la aparición de un misterioso poder para sanar lo hará replantear todo en su vida. Con tintes sobrenaturales, actuaciones convincentes, unos pocos cabos sueltos, pero buen ritmo... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Dans "Le pacte du mal", l'argument fantastique ne sert finalement que de pretexte à une simple et unique interrogation : quel prix est-on prêt à payer pour posseder un pouvoir qui peut repondre à vos besoins ? Dès lors, "Le pacte du mal" se concentre presque exclusivement sur le ressenti de son principal protagoniste, un medecin emotionnellement desinvesti, et sur la lente transformation de ce qui semble être une opportunite de renouveau en fardeau impossible à porter. Heureusement, il le fait avec un doigte qui suffit à rendre la chose intrigante à suivre, même si l'abondance de sous-intrigues dispensables lui donne parfois les allures d'un luxueux episode d"Urgences" et si l'absence d'explications quant aux origines et à la raison d'être de cette malediction a de quoi frustrer.
