Original and ingeniously basic premise full of tense images and intrigue in spite of developing only one scenario . Dealing with a paraplegic computer engineer that moves in a wheelchair . This freaky and clever film chronicles fear , desperation , paranoia of a computer expert called Joaquín (Leonardo Sbaraglia) who faces off a completely Kafkaesque situation when in his cellar starts hearing noises and voices of bank-robbers whose leader results to be a really violent murderer called Galereto (Pablo Echarri , also producer) . This is a thrilling film in which the paraplegic starring quest to find answers and solutions to vanquish some extremely violent delinquents (Walter Donado , Laura Faienza , Facundo Nahuel Giménez , Javier Godino) and subsequently planning steal the bank , creating an alternate access to the tunnel , just before them .

The picture succeeds because of the thriller , tension , as well as a superbly written script delving into the human psyche in such extreme situation and our instinctive urges for survival .

AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL(2016) Director- Rodrigo Grande Cast-Leonardo Sbaraglia,Clara Lago

Language-Spanish Thriller Third Spanish thriller on the row and still in awe of their expertise in making thrillers absorbing and captivating.After watching namely "The invisible guest","sleep tight" I sort of developed an interest in exploring their filmography more.

A physically handicapped person overhears a bank heist plan of some thugs residing in his basement.OH!u guessed it right,it sounds familiar to "rear window",yes it is grande's homage to the Hitchcock classic.

The film is though obviously very flawed but on the other hand is very watchable.The exceptional camera work and the performance of the lead cast are the reasons to watch the film.The entire film is shot in a single house,intentionally happens at a dark atmosphere.i.e at night.The story is not tight and very predictable.If you are going to watch the film for a wholesome experience you will not either be disappointed or be overjoyed.The plot has nothing new but the style of approach is unique and commendable.The film is mediocre if compared to the other spanish flicks mentioned earlier but as I already said is watchable.The films lacks the pace and is slightly long to watch for.

A very good movie! You never expect to see such a good plot! Loved it!

My opinion-.

"At the end of the tunnel" is a movie by Rodrigo Grande and a thriller policeman realized with a small budget, but with far greater effects than some great productions, everything is there, a super scenario and a plot that takes you more and more That one advances in this movie. If you like good suspense, look at it, it is worth it.

I have never seen a heist movie with this kind of plot twists. This is unguessable as well as trickily executed. One most indulging factor is the protagonist is cripple yet how he protect himself along with the bank money is amazing.
