Audience Member No es una pelicula convencional, intenta reflejar una realidad de una forma pocas veces trabajada. El factor de tiempo prima mucho ya que realmente puedes sentir la soledad, el silencio y la duda que pueden experimentar un grupo de chicos sin sus padres cerca. Tiene ciertos aspectos que se pudieron mejorar como la trama en si, si bien la pelicula se mantiene en una misma linea por esta serie de sucesos sin tanta relevancia, creo que debio existir algo de movimiento o quiza profundizar un poco mas en los personajes. No es una pelicula para un publico acostumbrado al cine de accion hollywoodense, por lo que es esperable que tenga muchas criticas fuertes. Aun asi tiene muchas cosas por rescatar y si bien no llega a deslumbrar si te contagia con la atmosfera que precisamente viven estos personajes durante la historia. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member I waited almost 2 hours for something to happen... like the kids in the movie - bored. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant; shows a week in the life of kids growing up in a gated community in Argentina; has that meandering pacing that I love; these kids kind of move through life as robots without really being able to express themselves--because their lives are so structured and monotonous--hence the slightly crazy climax--has a Jeanne Dielman feel but not as slow--where mostly its silent desperation with a moment of madness Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Oh god... Boring and unsatisfying - pretty weak. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Picture two groups of siblings (cousins) alone in an adult-free country club for a week. Interesting, huh? A beautifully shot social experiment. You can cut the sexual tension with a butter knife and drool all over the gorgeous cinematography. Also, incredible performance from the teen cast. Amazing group of non-professional actors. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
