Isla perdida

Haunted Heart, directed by Academy Award winner Fernando Trueba, is a significant letdown, especially given the director's impressive track record. The film's plot, unfortunately, offers nothing new, with a predictable narrative that fails to surprise or engage. The characters are flat and unmemorable, making it hard for the audience to feel invested in their fates. The casting choices seem off, with actors who either feel out of place or struggle to bring any depth to their roles. Perhaps most frustrating is the soundtrack, which completely undermines the tension, especially in scenes that are supposed to be pivotal. Instead of heightening suspense, the music drains any sense of urgency or danger. As if that weren't enough, the Spanish dubbing is not only poorly executed but borders on ridiculous, further pulling viewers out of the experience. It's baffling that a filmmaker of Trueba's caliber could overlook these fundamental aspects of filmmaking. Haunted Heart is, sadly, a film that fails to live up to expectations. Save yourself the disappointment and skip this one.

I was expecting something a lot more out of Matt Dillon. The storyline is a waste of time. It's a dragged out romance story without really developing the characters' back stories. A shallow piece of work.

It started promising though against a beautiful backdrop of the Greek islands where everything seems chilled. From one third of it out, I lost interest not just because of Alex's lines and seduction, but Matt was stoic throughout the whole movie. Not much engagement or feeling like part of the movie as an audience. Disappointing.

Because I like Matt Dillon from the past.

But my god this really is a huge Turkey.

A complete waste of time watching as when I start a movie I tend to want to finish it and give it a chance and some kind of middle and end. Well don't bother with this one.

Terrible storyline. Shockingly slow and totally lacking in direction and cohesion.

This was supposed to be some kind of thriller that had no thrills. No connection. No direction. No Intrigue. No chemistry. No Interesting plot. The other actors involved should have stayed at home because there is no need for their very small amount of input.

Terrible film that should have been left on the directors/producers/editors floor.

The most boring and provocative movie i have ever seen. The creator should know that there is no country called Macedonia as it is mentioned in the beginning when the female protagonist mentioned that she passed through Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia and Macedonia (meaning North Macedonia). Macedonia is a region of Greece and it's a shame not to respect at least the history of the country you are shooting the movie.

Except of this the movie is really boring and every dialog lasts too long without any meaning.

I wouldn't pay again to see this movie or any other movie from the same creator. Don't loose your time and money.

Okay, so I don't even know where to begin.

I will try to be neutral as this was directed by Fernando Trueba and he usually is pretty good. And although I 100% saw what he was trying to do because I'm of an age that I recall the style, but this one is not just a disappointment-it's just plain old boring, boring, boring and even hard to get through.

The story isn't anything new, maybe one small surprise. The characters are mediocre at best. The female lead totally held this together, and I'm so sorry that I have to remember Matt Dillon in this role because while he can play a good nutter, and I grew up watching him so I'm totally familiar with his range (he's often overlooked, a better actor than he's given credit for) I cringed at many of his scenes. Again, I know what the director was trying to do but it'll be a miss with younger generations and Dillon was just lifeless in this one.

The music, however, was fabulous.
