Amazing performance by Bardem
This soul exposing film will not leave you untouched. Javier Bardem gives an excellent performance that is second to none. It is passionate and pure, complex and yet featured with great clarity about the human nature.
Deep and intense
This here is a very intense story about redemption. The acting is on a very high level and the story is not one that can be forgotten after watching. It's a very deep, emotional film.
Likely to see
