Best foreign film I've seen in a while. If you are in the mood for a suspense, thriller and either can deal with subtitles, enjoy them, or speak Spanish; watch this film! It really was nice to watch a movie that is not a remake, super cliche, or with terrible acting. Speaking of acting, there are really only four actors in this film, two of which are very minor, and one is the director. All together, the acting was superb.Timecrimes flows so well, and without any confusion. A person with little to no understanding in topics like the pseudoscience workings of a time machine, or knowledge of the space time continuum could easily understand what is happening in the film. The movie was close-to perfectly written and pieced together with zero holes that I could find. I seriously may re-watch this movie with my fiance or friends very soon, and it would be totally worth it.

Fantastic film! Really worth a watch. Time travel premise with tons of suspense. The direction from Vigalondo and performance from Elejanlde are brilliant in my opinion and really put the viewer in the centre of the action. I loved the way the voyeurism/nudity wasn't gratified or over-indulged but used as a tool to entice the lead character and viewer, but then avoided when it wasn't necessary - it could easily have become distasteful and inappropriate, but doesn't and therefore adds a lot to the film. The plot twists and turns come thick and fast, and though you'll sometimes find yourself seemingly a step ahead, it never feels predictable. I'd recommend this film to all, though if you're a fan of time travel or suspense thrillers, you should certainly give this film a look.…Full Review »
