first part OK next downhill
3 March 2017
...the days are passing in a luxury seaside village and the story occurs mostly there with only couple of shots in the small town near. The movie promised and delivery until day 2 (every passing day is marked on the screen)or so then it goes downhill; plagued with clichés of the genre and confusing edit and shots. So the suspense gets down and all that mixed stuff start...this is not Hitchcock.

-I really like Beat Kitano and always with his style not defraud here. Nishijima works his roll very good; but I see this actor in other movies and works his acting the same way... The story is based in a short one by an Spanish writer. The camera work is good and the color palette is OK but somehow too digital for my taste. Somehow is a good entertainment but nothing more. Is an OK movie hence the 5 stars
