Durante la tormenta

In a film industry so over saturated with rip off and remakes it was refreshing to see something so refreshingly original even if it was a Netflix special. Whilst at times it was a little predictable there was enough other twists along with a great general premise and some great performances to make this more than worthwhile and a thoroughly entertaining time despite its occasional flaws. Well worth a watch.

This is the 3rd movie i watch for the Catalan director, and man did he deliver another masterpiece.

The plot is genius and most importantly "current" coping with this age and so original. The script itself was tight and connected ,, and even thought it was a bit slow in the beginning but turns so helpful to clear things up before introducing the "time lines change" idea.

The cast were all perfect ,, from the lead Adriana Ugarte to Álvaro Morte (the guy from the Netflix show money heist) and Chino Darín and even the kid was really good.

Netflix knows where to invest ,, the other day i read that Steven Spielberg attacking Netflix that they shouldn't be on the Oscars and so on (After they won three Oscars for Roma by Alfonso Cuarón) .. My say in this was ... "The future is now old man" , Netflix knows whats worth spending money on ,, and they harvest what they planted.

Being excessively binary, either you are ultra-rational and you will probably feel that this story is far-fetched, either you have a strong appetite for the 'Twilight Zone' atmospheres, and you should love this movie. If I have to be categorized, I clearly belong to the second category: I liked this story which establishes a literally extra-ordinary connection between Nico (a 12-year-old kid living in 1989) and Vera (a 30-year-old mother living in 2014), thanks to a vhs recorder and an unconventional storm. Thus, the mother prevents the death, 25 years earlier, of this teenager which implies the passage from one space-time to another: a complete new life for her, without her daughter but with the full memory of the ancient life, especially her daughter, now nonexistent. What a nightmare! But, she definitely wants her ancient life back.

These are the first 15 minutes. The continuation is to be discovered and enjoyed !

The plot is perfect, action? Action 100%,Suspense 100%,imagination 100%,plot twist 101%. The director deserve more recognition. Don't listen the bad reviews go watch it ASAP.

After Contratiempo and El Cuerpo, i really thought that no one could do anything better but obviously i'm wrong. I liked this film so much. Not even a moment i felt bored. Unbelievably good, wow again. Thanks.
