A previous review called the film dreary, dull, disappointing, & frustrating. I agree with the reviewer. Also, I like to add: irritating, annoying & sleazy. Plus, the movie suffers from useless character syndrome. (If you watch it, you will quickly figure out who it is)

The movie could have gone two ways, either a madcap dark comedy or an insightful drama about love, loss and relationships between child and parent.

Instead, the director decided to speed race through the story loaded with sex, pointless filler scenes and the tell don't show trope.

The mother is suppose be the catalyst of everything that happened, however I didn't understand what did she actually do set every one off?

The movie dragged and sputtered. I felt like i was on a merry go around wanting to get off.

The theme of a family facing the end is lost in the muddled script.

Spanish-language cinema across Spain and Latin America is united by its engagement with history, cultural identity, and social transformation. In Spain, films often balance artistic experimentation with popular genres while reflecting on memory, politics, and family. In Latin America, cinema has been deeply tied to questions of colonial legacy, resistance, and community resilience, ranging from intimate dramas to bold political allegories.

The drama genre is a broad category that features stories portraying human experiences, emotions, conflicts, and relationships in a realistic and emotionally impactful way. Dramas delve into the complexities of human life, often exploring themes of love, loss, morality, societal issues, personal growth, with the aim to evoke an emotional response from the audience by presenting relatable and thought-provoking stories.
