ButteredPopcornMay 9, 20079What a good movie. I only wish it were a bit less violent, though by today's standards, this movie is actually not all too violent.

DanieoV.Dec 10, 200610A magnificent work of cinematic art. The thematic and narrative symmetry were immensely pleasing. The type of movie you'd watch again for the little details and tiny nuances in acting.

TimDNov 19, 200610Dark, unsettling, at times hypnotic, the film exerts a grip that didn't let go of me until it was over, and even then images and sounds from it stayed with me for many hours. A first-class piece of work with a world-class actor -- Ricardo Darín -- in the lead role.

70While never boring and sometimes quite gripping, Bielinsky's manneristic style becomes distracting; he seems more concerned with generating an ominous atmosphere than with telling a compelling story.

70While an enjoyable twist on the noir genre, a little more character development would have been nice.

70Bielinsky is a most expressive director, achieving considerable nuances and depths of emotion with characters' looks, gestures, body language and silences.
