Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film For a film that has a strong theme of romance and seems intent on exploring grey areas between superstition and religion, reality and fantasy, there are an awful lot of things being presented in black and white. Rated: 2.5/5 Jan 15, 2010 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member You just never know what is going to be a good movie, and this was a surprise as far as how good that it was. I have to admit, the corny Spanish previews prior to the film scared me. But this film was funny without being corny, creepy, intriguing, interesting, and charming all at once with an amazingly good cast. Since it was a movie about a whole town, there were alot of different characters, and all of them were of interest in their own way, even the children who were fun and spunky. The bantering and interaction between the characters was most entertaining. Great movie! So glad that I gave it a shot. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A ver, una ligera y fragil historia, actuaciones mediocres y bellos ambientes son las notas que alguien tomaria cuando ve esta pelicula. Una direccion que quiso hacer algo diferente perom no lo lograria, escenas inutiles que no llevan a nada y personajes no muy bien formados. En fin, salvo una bella escenografia y buenos colores esta pelicula es sinceramente muy mediocre, pero creo que lo mas acentuado de todo son las terribles actuaciones que NADIE en la pelicula pudo dominar. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Es pésima. Un bochorno total para el cine venezolano; no sé qué le pasó a Carmen Maura que se empató en esa. Malos actores, pésimo guión, pésima historia. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Muchas pretensiones y pocos frutos... Carmen Maura excelente, como siempre. Lo demás lamentable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
