Audience Member A black comedy that finds humour and truth through it's well written script and oddball yet likeable protagonists. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting and fresh movie with good cast. Really remarkable the performance by Néstor Guzzini. The dramatic part is really good and the staging of the comedy is nice but it fails to be really funny when it needs to be. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member a sweet movie that touches on profound truths Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Que un chileno protagonice una película uruguaya era un gran riesgo. Héctor Noguera convence con su papel de Kaplan, un judío residente de Montevideo que se da cuenta que su vida está pasando sin tener una gran historia que contar. Así, construye en su mente una cacería de un nazi que vive solitario en una playa, en un film que cómicamente atraviesa una serie de temas interesantes. Recomendable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Inane uruguayan nazi black comedy about ageing washouts and kidnapping, well executed. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member A black comedy of perception and reality... there were moments of fun and laughter but i went away in a sombre frame of mind...
