Not easy to write about a movie that so seamlessly and naturally combines humor, and really good one, with a greater than life romance and crimes, in the backdrop of political turmoil and chaos. The mystery within the mystery is so hypnotic that you can see it several times and not get bored and every detail, every shot and camera angle. A true masterpiece that will resonate to local audiences for many years and yet endure the universality themes of love, envy, sacrifice and friendship. If you haven't see it...go on and do so. One of the best pictures ever....and I'm a Star Wars fan.

THE movie: Drama, action, love, suspense, an amazing scene at the perfect moment, and more, all balanced and part of one story. And even if this is not the best movie that you watched, it shows that with some (a lot) of creativity you don't need to gather a big budget to make an award winning film. The stadium shot is for the history books.... and again brought into the movie at the perfect time, in synchrony with the ongoing plot. If you enjoy movies like Rambo or American pie (or if you had trouble understanding those), then this might not be your movie. If you want some depth, thoughts, emotions, and a meaningful topic of conversation/discussion after the movie, then this is your movie. Bill San Diego.

I had heard such rave reviews of this film from my friends and colleagues that I just had to watch it, and I'm glad that I did. What an exquisite piece of work. I loved the cinematography and the casting was perfect. Darin and Villamil, as well as the supporting actors, delivered outstanding performances--so believable and touching. Took a bit to get into this movie, but once into it, I became immersed. Afterwards, I couldn't get the movie out of my mind. Really stayed with me. What I originally thought of as slow was simply a steady build up to the movie climax. Nicely done. Intriguing. The romantic storyline didn't do anything for me (and I found it implausible) but the detective/suspense part was awesome. Not sure if I want to see the recent re-make because it might ruin this version of the story for me.

Some movies just connect with us more deeply and increase our respect towards films. This is one of such movies. The way story is told and the impact it leaves after we finished watching can't be explained in in words. Even though I watched the whole movie with the help of subtitles(as it is in Spanish) , I never felt any significant difference in movie experience , it's largely due to amazing acting and direction. One of the unforgettable movies I watched ever.Final 30 minutes is just mind blowing.

I came up to watch this film after its Oscar award as best foreign language film. Although it starts like a crime movie, slowly it becomes into a love story, when we see its development through the eyes of Benjamin Esposito, the former legal counselor, who tries to solve a long ago murder. What I liked about this story is its reliability portrayed from the 70's - when being a critic of the government was considered a reason to be prosecuted by the state- combined with two loved women stories that have lasted for 25 years. One lesson this movie gives us is "love can last longer than you think" and another is "even a forbidden love can even last longer". And it's precisely those lessons the key for Esposito to solve a crime long ago closed.

Romantic Mystery Drama ----- A retired investigator is writing a novel about an unsolved rape-murder that still haunts his memories 25 years later . He revisits some places and people of his past to share his rough draft - including the love in his eyes, his boss-intern Irene ... It travels to the past when he and his partner Pablo first get the case from the department. Irene is brand new to the office, and the judge is an "imbecile". The victim's husband is losing his sanity and wants to take justice into his own hands. As Ben and Pablo close in on the lead suspect, one of the shader investigators closes the case and pins it on some immigrants (he and killer have relations). As time ticks away if justice will be served or not, Ben can't escape his love for Irene (rich, soon to be married), and it seems Irene can't escape her love from Ben. 8.5/10
