No pun intended - and yes I understand if you have issues with the movie. With certain depictions (dramatic and otherwise) - or (re)actions of the main characters. Yes you will have to suspend your disbelief! Quite a lot - and it is putting it mildly to be honest.
That all being said, the movie will reward your patience in the end. Because there is more to it than you may think there is. And there will be twists and turns waiting for you (not all marked with chalk - well I had to, didn't I?).
So while you may cringe and pull out a few hairs - try to remember that especially in horror, people have to do certain things for other things to happen ... also there are multiple explanations to many things ... sometimes you may not even be thinking of the one that is the truest ... you may not feel it is, but the acting is more than decent. It is the characters that may annoy you ... don't blame the actors. Still really well made overall and with a finale that is able to sway your mind ... and twist it too.

This is a mystery/drama movie which becomes a thriller movie in the second half. It's watchable and entertaining. There are no pace problems, it's not boring, it keeps your interest, there are some (not great, not bad) twists which i didn't see them coming. If you are in the mood for a movie as it was described, you will enjoy it.
However, it's flawed. I couldn't believe the things that happened, don't look for plausibility here. The ending is satisfying but it doesn't make much sense. The movie is creating a good atmosphere in the first half but, in the second half, it is losing steam. It's still watchable and kinda intense, but it could have been better.
Overall, this is not a MUST SEE movie and there are many better movies to recommend, but i didn't regret for watching this. It's slightly above mediocrity, enjoyable and not dumb.

I'll be honest, this movie is nothing special.
The only two great things I would like to point out are:
Everything else here is mediocre. Some sequences are literally facepalm, while others flow well, and take you to the end of the movie. Some things remain unexplained, and that creates some plot holes. The ending is a bit hasty, though.
The only two great things I would like to point out are:
- The plot idea on which the film is based, which is remarkably original, although it is surrounded by events that are anything but original, sometimes almost cliché. Nothing astonishing, but it does his job, and that's enough.
- The direction, which manages to keep the viewer on their toes when necessary. Climax moments are well sustained.

Well this was a pleasant surprise. Was flicking through Netflix and this movie came up. Went in not knowing anything about it. Kept me riveted and the storyline was pretty good & decently acted.
A couple driving home happen upon a young child stranded in the road. She's taken to hospital with kidney problems. No parents are located, the child isn't responsive and doesn't talk much. The couple foster her short term to aid her recovery and then little by little light is thrown upon her past & the mystery is uncovered largely by the foster mum.
It's rated horror but it's definitely thriller/suspense.

The main actress has done a tremendous job and the story keeps its suspense intact until the very end. Screenplay picks up its pace in second half, where gradually all your questions start answering themselves. Some would say that the ending went a little overboard with twist but it fitted fine with my idea of an expected adrenaline rush one can expect from a thriller.
The concept and title of chalkline is pretty smart. The investment and effort went behind making it a good movie is pretty evident. Accessing the trauma and abuse is done very thoughtfully. Although the images might be unsettling for few.

- TriviaJaula is the Spanish word for cage.
- ErroresAfter the motorcyclist had a violent spill in trying to avoid crashing into the little girl; Símon and his wife take the disorientated child directly to the hospital rather than call and wait for an ambulance. However, no mention is made of how the cyclist fared by the couple or the medical staff at the hospital. The cyclist may have been killed or at least severely injured but this fact was completely ignored thus interrupting the train of thought for the viewer.
- Versiones alternativasTheatrical version begins with "Álex de la Iglesia presenta" (Álex de la Iglesia presents). When the movie was released in Netflix a month and a half later, this was changed for "Netflix presenta" (Netflix presents).
