The 7th Floor (2013)
6/10
Expected more...
14 March 2018
"The 7th Floor" is a mystery thriller movie in which we watch a man searching for his children who disappeared after going down the stairs of their apartment on the seventh floor. Since the father is a successful lawyer in Buenos Aires and in the middle of an important case would make sense for his children to be kidnapped, but everything changes after he continually searches for them and becomes more and more suspicious of everyone.

I have to admit that I expected more from this movie. Due to the fact that I had already watched some of the movies of Ricardo Darín like "Nine Queens", "The Secret in Their Eyes" and "Black Snow" and Belén Rueda like "The Orphanage" and "The Body" I had high expectations for this movie and I was let down by it. The interpretations of both Ricardo Darín who played Sebastián and Belén Rueda who played Delia were average and I think they didn't reach their potential. But this is not the most important reason why this is an average movie and nothing more. The most important reasons are the poor direction which was made by Patxi Amezcua and the poor script which had, as a result, a poor plot with no twists, no surprises and not good interpretations by a very good cast.

To sum up I believe that "The 7th Floor" is an average movie with no many surprises and also a medium plot with some gaps that will confuse you. It's a simple movie to just spend your time but don't have high hopes or expectations by it because I am sure that you will be disappointed.
