Que Dios nos perdone

"Que Dios nos perdone" is a Thriller - Drama movie in which we watch two inspectors trying to solve the mystery behind some murders and figure out who is the serial killer behind them. They have to find the serial killer as soon as possible in order to prevent the occurrence of more murders.

I liked this movie very much because it had a nice and interesting plot filled with tension and plenty of mystery, something that made it even more interesting. The direction which was made by Rodrigo Sorogoyen was very good and he did an amazing job on the way he presented his main characters and the plot of the movie. The interpretations of both Antonio de la Torre who played as Velarde and Roberto Álamo who played as Alfaro were very good and their combination worked very well. In addition to this, the differences of their characters along with their different perspective on many matters created a nice bond between them, that was obvious through the whole duration of the movie. Finally, I have to say that "Que Dios nos perdone" is a nice mystery movie and I highly recommend everyone to watch it because I am sure that will leave you speechless.

I was positive surprise. I had some Hitchcock moments. Good acting, shocking pictures, good work of location scouts and above all a great ending.

This is one of those movies that surprise you. One of the highlights of the movie is Roberto Álamo's interpretation, who is able to express a lot of emotion with the help of his body language. A body language very violent but that manage to empathize easily with the audience. About Antonio de Torre I was expecting a little bit more because of his previous work, with some memorable and amazing characters.

The case we see the film (a real one, i think) and the place and time of the context of 15M (anti-austerity movement in Spain) is a plus for the movie. The script has some great dialogues and the story is very solid. I enjoyed the touch of humor that is implicit in the whole movie which helps to smooth the sordid police case. In conclusion, I went to the theater with no expectation about this movie and came out with a smile on my face, waiting with excitement for Rodrigo Sorogoyen future work.

You will remember the faces of the characters/actors of this film for a long time.
