Muerte en Buenos Aires

I loved this movie. I can't understand the low rating. It's very well written, acted and directed. It's a great character study, there is a good deal of comedy in it, as well as suspense and drama. It's also very believable overall. The 80s ambient is very well recreated, not only through the music and the clothes, but also people's attitudes and mentality, and therefore it compliments the plot. It's hard to say anything more without revealing any spoilers, but if you'd like some light entertainment with a good movie that doesn't take itself too seriously and yet it delivers on so many levels and succeeds to engage, to entertain and surprisingly even to make you reflect about life on a deeper level, this movie is for you. All I can say is the movie is good , and you can make whatever you want from it - a light evening entertainment or a good psychological and character study.

This movie was compelling to watch because it was unique, had a lot of twists and turns and one of the leads was young, masculine and attractive. Good acting. High production values, but the end was a complete let down. I actively hated the entire movie after seeing the ending. It was truly disgusting!!! It was a deliberate, pathetic trick played by the screenwriter. Those who gave this high marks are sadistic. If this had been a high production "straight" movie, this ending would not have stood. But since it's a gay movie and gays are loathed as well as self-loathing, this type of ending is considered "acceptable" by the screenwriter/director. As a gay person, seeking positive gay themed entertainment, I resent this attitude with a passion!!!

The crime plot line is nothing special but that was forgivable: it's not really the murder that matters but it gets investigated and here the investigation was written lazily. The romantic subplot had the potential to be explosive but it felt forced and rushed, because the male lead lacked chemistry.

Darín is so good tho. So handsome!!!

One of films nice crafted, the contrast between Demian Bichir and Chino Darin working more than nice, like the family problem of Chavez. A film proposing, not in bad way, different spices and perspectives , reflecting a time and a world, reasonable acted . A serious fist of cliches and the slippery charm of Ganso as axis .

The huge problem - the predactibility, hoping than the too obvious clues about killer to not be confirmed.

Modest film, indeed, but interisting for smart use of homosexual theme, for horses runnin in night, for the portrait of Chavez, reminding old fashion cops at duty
