David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a top-tier contemporary thriller. Rated: 3.5/4 Nov 27, 2020 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) A movie that goes beyond being a thriller and points out social issues in Spain, such as the bank crisis, gender violence and general psychosis from parents who's children have been murdered. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 28, 2015 Full Review Sergio Benítez Espinof This is as close as a Spanish film can get to a Hollywood action film. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 28, 2015 Full Review Alberto Abuín Espinof A movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat for an hour and a half that rarely offers you a chance to catch your breath. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 28, 2015 Full Review Mikel Zorrilla Espinof An excellent thriller during most of it's run time, this mainly due to the great performances and the good direction by Dani de la Torre. [Full review in Spanish] Oct 28, 2015 Full Review Jorge Carrión En Filme It reaches notable moments when it comes to intensity, but it also makes room for a very smart social commentary. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Oct 28, 2015 Full Review Read all reviews

Elvis D España dejó una sorpresa inesperada con esta película no solo por su calidad en la producción, sino por haber alcanzado la suficiente fama para que en tan solo poco tiempo tuviera tres recreaciones hechas por Alemania, Corea Del Sur y EUA. Esta película es un thriller que juega a favor de la desesperación por la que Julio pasa. No se toma la molestia de presentar a los personajes, ya que a pocos minutos de empezar, la película va directo al grano. El argumento es intrigante y llena de tensión. Las actuaciones algo exageradas, pero se plasma bien la desesperación de Julio y sus hijos. Todo incluso se vuelve más tenso cuando la vida del hijo menor está en riesgo. Las escenas de persecuciones están bien ejecutadas y es algo bueno, ya que no es algo que se vea mucho en el cine español. La calidad de la producción y la fotografía son sin duda digna de una película de Hollywood. El Desconocido es una película impactante a la que no se le puede quitar los ojos de encima hasta saber qué sucede al final con los protagonistas. Otra película interesante del cine español. Mi calificación final para esta película es un 9/10. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/25/23 Full Review Bearbot 5 Started watching it with little expectations and it turned out to be fantastic entertainment. It even managed to pass a social commentary on the lack of morality of some bankers. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/01/23 Full Review Audience Member The suspense is not so...suspenseful and the social commentary seems a bit forced. The script is what is mostly at fault here. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Very good movie. Good plot and suspense. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Excelente película, desde los primeros minutos empieza la emoción y se mantiene toda la película, recomendada. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Absolutely f*****g outstanding. This is Speed but way more emotionally destructive. Two kids and there father in a car, a bomb under each front seat, but they think there are are bombs under all seats, and they can't get out or it will blow. I swear, i'm a psychopath, but this almost had me in tears, fearing for the lives of the children, over and over again. It's in Spanish, which is a pain, but trust me, if you can put up with subtitles, you will be so glad that you watched it, and this one is an absolute must for an American remake, for those who don't like subtitles, because it would make a fortune at the box office and blu ray sales. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
