Fun If You Don't Speak Spanish, But Not Good
IntakeCinema5 September 2022
This is a Spanish language film that I assume aired on television and unfortunately for me, because I don't speak a lick of Spanish, had no subtitles. But I watched it anyways! Nothing can stop me! It was quite enjoyable to try to figure out what was going on and I broke out the live translate app on my phone to try to get bits and pieces where I could. You could presume I have quite a bit of hubris to rate/review a film that I couldn't understand, but a large part of film is visual storytelling and I believe I understood enough to share my opinion.

Well, I can't say this movie is particularly good, but I've definitely seen worse TV movies. There is a VERY long make out scene to presumably torture the woman's lover whom they have kidnapped (again, I'm pretty much entirely guessing what is happening in this movie) and it just kept going so long that it tortures the audience instead. The same goes for an extended scene of a guy driving in slo-mo with an unexplainable look on his face, I think he is trying to appear sad or confused but he just kind of looks like he is constipated. The man from the make out scene also spends about 90% of his screen time doing target practice and is shown to be quite proficient and then he immediately fails when he has a showdown with another character. I don't know if they thought that would be a clever move, but it was an extremely obvious set up and I was kind of hoping they would subvert my expectations and have him actually win the gun fight. Either way, this movie wasn't good and that was the end of it.

I don't recommend watching this even if you do speak Spanish.
