A Masterpiece!

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I dont think this movie was pretentious or over the top, I think it depicts very well on a social phenomenon that is too seldomly encountered in the "civilised" world:having intercourse without truly knowing your partner, without being sincere in your pursuing, leads to drama, emotional scaring and potential tragedy. We have "him" a smooth talker, so used to getting what he wants, he's so charming until he gets it, we have seen this type before, he's an archetype, right? Count Alexei Vronsky from Anna Karenina, if you will. We know his catch phrases, his dialogue, 20 year old me would be giggling, 30something year old me would be bored and uninterested a.f. Enough with the swagger, how about your soul, depth, kindness, being genuine and passionate, thats what I would say and get in that taxi without a second thought, if I were the female character. So let's say that from that point of view I found the dialogues to be a little lacking, but the underline of the movie is still very emotional, I'll get to that. we almost liked him. Almost ...as the female character because we should trust our gut and not buy into his bullshit. We depict him later, after he got his way, changed in his demeanor, he doesn't smile or say those sweet things in the awkward "post coitus" morning, which he does his best to make it more even so. On the other hand, we have "her" a socially awkward girl, we kinda see it from the start that she's got issues. Later, in the development, when she talks about being off for one year, being sad, talks to her mom on the phone about taking the pills in her bag and refuses to drink alcohol, we are lead to believe that she was suffering from severe depression, maybe. She's not the extrovert her friends are, we see that, she tries to defend herself from his attacks, being a "b*tch", if you will, as sometime introverts do. He is not able to see it, narcissistic as he is, her defense only inflates him more. So, the morning after all hell breaks lose, as his shallowness and her incredible sensibility collide. At the end, you would think they can make ammends, as adults, but, it could be too late. Message of the movie: don't play with someone's heart unless you are able to take responsibility for it...or as friend of mine says:"interhuman relationships are haaaaaaarrrddd..."

I loved this movie. I shed a tear. When I first saw the title I thought the action takes place in Stockholm. After watching the movie I realized that the title is probably referring to the Stockholm syndrome. I found it to be very touching. It perfectly described the superficiality in nowadays people interactions, how words lost a meaning and how something that is unimportant to us can mean so much to another person. I can say that it was a really good movie, because the producer didn't use eye candy tricks to make it enjoyable. The action happened in very few places, but the conversation between them was so meaningful and lacking clichés. I must also add that the actors were fabulous.

This movie was particularly entertaining because of the originality. Somehow, I could not relate the title with the movie. Also, I don't speak Spanish so I watched with English subtitles. I still loved the dialogue and interplay. The actress Aura Garrido really shines in this. Her character and acting made the movie for me. Javier is also excellent. It's minimal and nuanced with beautiful imagery. The ending was a surprise and left me open-mouthed for a while. It plays well to the traditional stereotype of a guy pursuing women. The playful approach of Javier is nice but naggingOverall I would definitely recommend it. PS: I watched it on a long flight.

First of all, say that this film is a SPOA like I say always (strong piece of art). There's an incredible perfection between the plot and the technical direction things (takes, art direction, etc).This film normally uses sequence shots for express all things in one, this makes you the feeling of being inside the house and get the same emotions of the characters.I rate with 9 and not with 10 for his precipitate an unexpected final... too awesome anyways, makes you'll be reflecting about during hours. I've seen people rating the film so bad just for the plot, but this is alternative cinema!! It's normal that surrealist or strange character reactions, plots, stories, etc like this, because the principal function is voice the point of view of the director from the cameras.Finally, said that the most impressive thing is the contrast of the two parts of the film (from the stages to the perfect change of roles), and how characters are involved.
