I can't remember what I even saw. It was such a dull movie with no narrative/thematic depth, or any sort of high octane thrilling drama. It felt pretty lifeless and dull. The scenes are bland, and the over conflict is trivial and stake-less. The movie could've have been good, if it had a true sense of purpose with its characters, rather than them being dragged on by others for a pretentious ride. Our protagonist, Roberto, is literally the embodiment of that, where he slogs and drives around purposelessly without defined and urgent pursuit. Throughout the movie, he seems like he needs a good night's sleep before he can start to do his thing to solve the case, as he walks around with no real urgency to get to the bottom of the case. Also, what weakens the movie is the lack of an intimidating conflict and villain, who spices the narrative up. There's a clear lack of stakes, and any meaningful drama to warrant any sort of emotional investment that's worthwhile. You could play the movie in the background and you wouldn't even miss a thing. A strong sense of purpose/goal, and a stronger sense of conflict and stakes would've enabled the movie much more.
