Review of Perfidia

Perfidia (2009)
4/10
The longest underwear commercial I have ever seen
10 September 2014
This film tries very hard to be "Avant Garde", but it falls short due to the very long and tedious sequences. The plot is interesting, but it take the director a very long time to give the audience a hint of what this film is all about. I would be surprised if 50% of the viewers make it half way through the film without turning it off or using the fast forward button.

I had to fast forward through a lot of scenes that just seemed to drag on forever, which ended up being a lot about nothing. The lead actor,Gonzalo Valenzuela, did an admirable job showcasing different sets of underwear. Other than that, the role wasn't very challenging and could have been cast by any novice actor with the same results.

This is a film that tries to be cerebral, but instead only succeeds in giving the viewer a bad migraine.
