Riposare in pace

Taking advantage of the historical fact of the attack on AMIA (July 1994), the plot becomes a parade of unlikely things, something that no one would believe. Furthermore, there is an annoying stereotype in the main character's children that bothered me a lot. Do not waste your time. Completely unbelievable plot and unconvincing performances. In short, a rare mediocre Argentine film where the Jewish community is characterized as materialistic and enjoys showing off. And to make things worse, a friendly dog appears whose fate will remain unknown. The passage of time inhabits the things little explained in the film.

Very good movie, with great twists during the movie.

At first I was surprised by the events that the main character was having to do to continue his life.

Again I was surprised but this time not much (kind of expected) in the middle of the movie I believe he took desperate attitudes, but it was due to the situation he got into, but.... He could have done better in other decisions he made!

Already finishing the movie, he tried to help himself and help the family, but... I can't say lol, but the end of the movie was "emotional", summing up a good movie in the category he is in. I just thought I could have told you better about my children's lives.

I don't recommend this, not even if you're bored and want to just turn something on. The whole time I kept thinking about how unrealistic the plot is. Not to mention frustrating because what was supposed to be the father sacrificing for the family, his actions in the movie were extremely egocentric. I couldn't get behind anything that he was doing... I have no idea who's the bad guy or good guy, or if there's even supposed to be any.

Literally no point to this film unless you want to feel annoyed.. Only reason it got stars is because I thought the production and etc were decent considering how bad the storyline is ..

Descansar en Paz (directed by Sebastián Borensztein) is a slow-burn mystery melodrama that keeps you intrigued in its first half, but unfortunately loses its emotional impact as the story progresses.

The film follows Sergio Dayan (played by Joaquín Furriel), a businessman on the brink of collapse. His inherited factory is in financial ruin, leaving him unable to pay his bills or employees. With mounting pressure from a dangerous loan shark demanding immediate repayment, Sergio's life is spiraling out of control.

Things take a sharp turn when, while buying a necklace for his beloved daughter, Sergio is caught in the aftermath of a deadly bombing at the Asociación Mutual Israelita Argentina (AMIA) - a hate crime that shakes the nation. In a desperate bid to escape his creditors and start fresh, Sergio fakes his death and flees to Paraguay, adopting a new identity. There, he secures a job at an import-export company, leaving his family behind but ensuring their financial stability through a life insurance policy.

While the setup is strong, with suspense building steadily in the first half, the film falters in its latter half. The emotional stakes diminish as the narrative unfolds, and by the time the conclusion arrives, it feels anticlimactic and even incoherent. What could have been a poignant exploration of guilt, survival, and the human condition ends in a forced and ridiculous final twist.

Ultimately, Descansar en Paz presents a promising beginning but stumbles when it comes to delivering a satisfying, emotionally resonant conclusion. It's a film that begins with tension but ends with a whimper.

Lets start with the good parts... Okay! I'm finished!

Now the bad parts : the movie has no sense at all! There is no reason watching it. The idea of the story is not bad but the execution in my opinion is terrible... You wait the whole movie for something to happen and during the last scene you wish it's not gonna be the last scene... and yet IT IS! The only hope that you have that this movie will give you something is gone right there on the spot, together with the endind titles. Nothing intresting at all.

I honestly feel bad for the time i spent watching this... Poor poor poor... Don't waste your time :)
