Besides some debatable choices in editing and sound mixing, Casademunt’s feature debut presents an amazing score, beautiful photography and splendid acting with a very solid script. Great future ahead of him!

Tale on parenthood and animal cruelty clearly influenced by Béla Tarr (EP).

The mid-way appearance of Pétur (stellar Björn Hlynur Haraldsson) is key to have someone you can relate to in this bizarre situation.

Hell yeah! Funny, uncomfortable, surprising and bloody!

Characters and setting quickly and effectively presented to get right into action.

Switches smoothly through comedy, unease and sentimentalism.

Slasher, Venice, stylish (great costume design). De la Iglesia at his most Bavaesque.

Some entertaining dark humor and kills. But, underdeveloped set-up and underwhelming ending.

Irregular film.

Meticulous spy film. Properly shows complexities and hardships of the job.

Good photography (highlighting whites and blacks) and action, but fails on making you empathize and care for the characters.
