Tiempo compartido

This Netflix movie doesn't know what it wants to be. It's is a big mix of charm, oddness, is a touch comedic, and there's a strong dash of threat and tension too, but it never takes full advantage of any of those elements. Good looking and with a great soundtrack, this could have been better.

The beginning was promising, but the ending was confusing and weak and pretty much left me indifferent other than I got to see Luis Mendes who I first saw in the 2 Crows series about the soccer team which was great. They guy is a great actor. Also, R J Mitte was surprisingly good. I guess he never got a chance in Breaking Bad because he was just a peripheral character.

I catched this mini masterpiece at Sundance and I am grateful to be the first user review. This film is much more than meets the eye. It begins as a light family comedy of errors and it ends as a horror film where the only monsters are the feelings of paranoia and neurosis in the father figure characters. It is a smart critique on globalization, savage capitalism, the re colonization of Mexico *Even the hotel is an Aztec pyramid. A scary POV of a based patriarchal society. I recommend to watch this bizarre fable, a strange marriage between Buñuel and Lynch. RJ Mitte from Breaking Bad gives a mature portray or an American manager. Glad to see him grow up into a solid actor.

I think that this movie had some really funny parts...I just feel like I thought that this movie was on a different path than it ended up to be...and I also don't think that I understand what was so horrific or scary about it at all...I'd say since it's on Netflix why not give it a twirl...you'll get some laughs...but mediocre at best...

Tiempo Compartido (or Time Share for the English title) is a Mexican drama/mystery from Sebastián Hofmann. I thought the cinematography was pretty good, with a well chosen soundtrack that helped the story to remain suspenseful. I can't deny the story was intriguing and that made it worth watching but the ending was a bit disappointing which ultimately will bring the ratings down. The acting wasn't bad, no Oscar winning performances though. In short, I watched way worse movies in this genre than this one, but would I watch it again in the future? The answer to that is simple and is no, but it's worth a watch.
