7 Anos

Really good acting and interesting character development in a tense and claustrophobic setting.

Big personalities battling to expose each other's emotional weaknesses that pretty much covered all 7 of the deadly sins. The premise for the plot of corporate financial wrongdoing did not make you favor one character over another so was left to the film to lead you to the same conclusions on each person as each of the characters would have as they attacked each other on a personal level.

The attacks started fairly civilized as they utilize a third party but quickly drop the passive aggressiveness and go full on. This transition is really the point of the film and the pace is just about right.

The ending was a bit abrupt and disappointingly predictable but by that time the viewers' verdict was set and the ending, while a let down, was somewhat inconsequential to the success of the film.

Very smart film with great dialogue and tight directing! You won't believe what can happen in 1 hour 17

Business as usual ... except when you get caught doing something you are not allowed to do. Usually you then have to suffer the consequences. Unless you decide that someone could sacrifice themselves to save others. And that is the overall premise here. Although as you can imagine no one is willing to take the fall like that.

So this drama/thriller is playing out in one location and therefor has to have something more going for it, twists and character traits, people clashing with each other. And overall the tension is kept throughout with moods swinging, opinions changing and views deceived. It works nicely, but it's not the very best out there. Still to be able to watch this so closely to its release in Spain in another country (also on Netflix) is kind of nice

This is a take of '12 Angry Men' with one room and character's personalities and hidden secrets come out. I give the director props for maintaining a level of intensity throughout the file. A few other details(like knowing what the company did, or any visual backstory of the characters) lessen the level of empathy I wanted to have for anyone. The ending is what pushed this from being a 6 to a 4, does not satisfy the movie.

Not a bad movie although not my cup of tea. But very smart, intelligent which reminds me a French feature from 1964, directed by Christian jacques, LE REPAS DES FAUVES, with nearly the very same scheme. Very same.
