I like international works and was happy to find this on Netflix. Perhaps my first Argentinian piece.
It is not great. It was not bad enough To not watch the entire movie. It's only 90 minutes and the plot seemed to move along okay. In other words it kept my attention. There is some bouncing around on the timeline so there were points I was a little confused, but I eventually sorted that out.
I found the lead character (Kloster) truly unlikable. By the end of the movie I was having almost a visceral reaction to him.
The other two primary leads are similarly unpleasant. None of these three are at all sympathetic and so the end (which throws in a surprise) left me cold and unsatisfied.
It is interesting that in the same weekend I watched this movie I also watched Spiderhead, which is fantastic. Of the two there is no comparison. They are not in the same league.
Watch Spiderhead and if you have time to waste give this one a try.
