I saw the highly praised by critics Los owners, a film from Tucumán and a lucky Argentine antecedent of Parasite, since it deals with how those in charge of a farm in Tucumán occupy the owners' house every time they are absent.

First film by Agustín Toscano and Ezequiel Radusky acclaimed by almost all the critics, perhaps it could be classified as a comedy, articulated by the evolution of the character of Rosario Bléfari (very well in her role), a concheta (upper class woman) from Buenos Aires appearing for his sister's wedding. The first half suffers from certain repetitions and a rhythm that does not grow, concentrating on the end a change in tone and register that I do not know if it is adequate.

In short: an interesting idea but uneven in its realization.

Having visited Argentina several times and knowing about some of its great movies, I had looked forward to seeing The Owners (Los Dueños). Unfortunately, I found the movie incredibly dull and slow and for a country that is known for good looking people, I had to ask myself why was every cast member somewhere in a range from burnt out to below average to bad looking. The director clearly abused his privileges regardless of story. The knife scrapping across the toast, the drive backwards in the car, the melancholic faces, but so what? What did any of those directorial scenes add to the story. Nothing. Argentina can do much better than this film.
