Quem Você Levaria para uma Ilha Deserta?

Strong performances from the four main characters, although it seems to have been shot on a limited budget. I spent the first hour just wondering if I was watching a slice-of-life piece, but by the end, I realized that there were clues that helped the ending make sense. The fever pitch of emotion near the end takes its roots in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" and "Boys in the Band." The perils of playing "Truth." The ending is peaceful and it makes sense, drawing on everything leading up to it. But I longed for "heart" over "head."

I found this a few days ago on Netflix as I was looking for movies to practice my Spanish. I liked it immediately, the cultural aspect - the way Spaniards interact vs Canadians or Americans/English. I lived in Hollywood for years and used to help some of my friends (some are famous actors) prepare for their roles. So I know how to spot a good actor - and this little movie is full of them. It develops slowly compared to Manic and predictable yet empty Hollywood movies, but that is what I like to see because it reflects reality. The twist was quite shocking to me in a good way - it really surprised me. I loved the drunk arguments which reminded me of a movie I saw long ago with my friend's grandmother playing a wife of a professor I think (Who's afraid of Virginia Wolf I think is the name). I loved it and I watched it several times actually (which I normally do only with Almadovar's movies). I have never seen any of these actors before. Very refreshing especially if you are fed up with boring Hollywood manic predictable sameness. Music was not bad but at at times too revealing of what's to come next. And I found a couple of long discussions a bit predictable and over the top - but overall I recommend it - and I showed some bits to couple of friends and they wanted to watch it (but we had to go) - I am definitely going to watch it again. Reminds me of my student life in London and of many good and funny things I have done. I like how the approach to the story is as different to predictable Will and Grace nonsense as possible. Very Spanish/European - refreshingly very different from toxic mania of Hollywood.

It is a great movie. Meaning and hidden messages of this movie are great and very relatable to real life. However, you won't probably get most of them if you are not a spanish speaker.

Your life can change in just 1 minute! The movie is not boring, but don't have action, is a calm movie...

An average plot written with a somehow slow beginning turns into a surprisingly good story with details to remember and ideas that stay with the viewer aferwards. The fantastic performances by the four protagonists is the main asset of the movie. Still, the fact that 3 out of 4 of them played in Casa de Papel and Elite might draw the wrong fanbase; this one is nothing like any of them so, if you expect something like this, be prepared.
