Ojos que no ven

Argentinian film that comes off as a bad parody of some sold school noir. Ojos Que No Ven, is as a film an utter failure, with characters as flawed as a Chinese hot Luois Vutton bag purchased in the village. The funniest part of it is the detective who totally rips Columbo off and goes for his smoke in my eyes grin, chain smokes and pretends he is a badass while slowly solving a generic crime that involves all the usual suspects, to that add terrible acting, and you get something really, really, really unoriginal. This should be avoided and never mistaken with the Peruvian film firected by the always reliable Francisco Lombardi, whos Ojos QUe No Ven is not only more intelligent but real.

"What Your Eyes Don't See" is a stylish and slick murder mystery set in the magazine publishing world of Buenos Aires, Argentina's capital city. It does a first-rate job of showing many of the local sights – Teatro Colon, Puerto Madero, Recoleta Cemetery, and the Tigre Delta, among others – and the actors are handsome and competent as they go through their paces showing us who killed the story's victims and why.

The movie's central character is a world-weary detective with the local homicide squad who is full of colorful quirks. Like Telly Savalas's Kojack, for example, this fellow sports a lollipop. It leaves you wondering if "What Your Eyes Don't See" is one entry in a recurring series on Argentine television.
