El aviso

I was apprehensive by seeing the rating of 5.9. However, there is a surprise; the movie has to be watched with little focus, and I am sure you appreciate the take. I did not agree with the ending as a small portion of logic missing. The acting and the screen play are perfect. Please watch and post your review... surely deserving more than 7 rating.

Tense thriller plenty of suspense , thrills, supernatural events and a complex intrigue. It deals with Jon , Raul Arevalo, a desperado young Mathematician at thirty and some years old. He witnesses how his best friend is shot by a delincuent at a gas station , outside Madrid .While a ten year old boy receives a note that if he goes to the petrolium station on April 12 he will die. The kid tells this fact but no one sees to believe except for the unsettling mathematician . Later on , Jon to be aware about previous shots and massacres happened at the same location in 1912, 1955, 1976 . He tries to use maths to find out a solution around the threatening and bizarre incidents , but things go wrong.

Taut and slick thriller in 92 minutes titled El aviso or The warning with supernatural events in which a boy suffers bullying and receiving a suspicious letter telling his life is in risk , while a disturbing young attempts to save him and uncover weird mysteries. Suspenseful and mysterious flick with an interesting group of roles caught into fear , despair and paranoia . Twisted and complex script based on the novel by Paul Pen , being written by Sparling who wrote Buried and along with Javier Guerricaechevarria , regular Alex De la Iglesia collaborator such as Dia de Bestia, and other hits as Cell 211 and Kovack box . Raul Arevalo gives a nice acting as the mathematician who suffers shizophrenia and begins a dangerous race against time to save the child and to avoid that crime will repeat , seeking a way to prevent it . Aura Garrrido as the protector mother is pretty well , she is a fine actress, as she has proved in Ministerio Del Tiempo series.Support cast is frankly good such as Aitor Luna , Sergio Calleja, Patricia Vico who is Calparsoro' wife , Alfredo Villa , Belen Cuesta and the veteran Julieta Serrano.

The fim packs an atmospheric and stirring musical score by Julio De la Rosa . And an evocative but dark cinematography by Sergi Villanova , shot on location in Madrid outside , Chamartin barrio. The Motion picture was well directed by veteran director Daniel Calparsoro, though It has some flaws and gaps . Daniel has a long career as filmmaker from his beginning with Basque films as Pasajes, Salto al vacio, A ciegas , Ausentes ; subsequently making thrillers as Asfalto , Guerreros , Invasor ,and the successful Combustion and Cien años de perdon . He also directed Tv series as Inocentes, La ira, El castigo , Apaches. Rating 6.5/10 . Decent and passable yarn as well as acceptable supernatural thriller.

The questioning to audiences what's going on is quite well planned but it's kinda planning too much and long in my opinion. Also, the mum force her son to the convenient store totally a big failure of this movie. If something that's meant to be causing the boy go into the store, I'm more convinced. Just more logical that how the curse been continued.

A disturbing movie, in which a guy sees (or thinks he sees) an arithmetic connection between shootings in a gas station which claimed five lives : the total of the age of the victims is oddly the same and it happened several times ,within decades of one another ; but this man is a mentally-sick man ,who swallows pills every day ,even though the rapport he has with the other characters is quite normal; he even shows altruism and compassion when his best friend is rushed to the hospital.

There are many interesting subjects in this thriller, notably bullying and harassment at school in a plot which seems independent of the main story ,but becomes little by little the most gripping of the film: this mother ,although she complains at school ,wants her son to be a man and to overcome his jitters ,even though the boy , victim of a hateful blackmail by his school mates,has received an ominous warning .It's finally this mother-and-child relationship which saves the confused final sequences .

El Aviso builds up as something great, but falls flat with the ending delivery. It tried to be something meticulous an intricate, but the complexity of the premise might have threw this movie off.

In El Aviso, we follow Jon on a attempt to solve the mystery behind the shooting that injuried his friend. Jon goes far on hi theory on a Number 23-ish vibe that I really appreciate.

The problem is that this is the extent of what this movie is about.

Jon's investigation seems lunatic, to say the least. El Aviso does not show us any proof of concept other than Jon's realizations and especulatinos over hard facts he finds.

With a slow pace that might bore you, El Aviso fails to conclude the over-the-top theory Jon untails, leaving us with a sense of casualty that hurts our brains, no conclusion to what is going on.
