A Gestora

It's an alright film. It kept me engaged and I wanted to know what was going to happen. I like the message this film sends. More often than we think, people we know might allow a new, short lived thrill or excitement to manipulate their lives. Their impulses will drive them to push the people who love them away. They can go as far as ruining their entire lives. I would have hoped for more details, suspense and action happening, but then I realized that the writer could have just been trying to send that simple message. I have seen worse thrillers on Netflix. Was it a thriller? Yeah. Did it entertain? I guess yeah. Average.

It is incredible how one movie can radically change from being good, well directed, strong characters, personalities, even intriguing to absolutely none sense, the ending made no sense at all, to the point that I really don't know what the writer was trying to say, but it felt offensive to women, we are just irrational people, crazy hormonal and irrational. The plot was a bit ambiguous too it has some undeveloped subjects, it has some scenes that don't go anywhere. But aside all this, I think it's worth your time watching this film because the acting is good and the production, they just lose it at the end, you end up scratching your head and thinking what the hell just happened?

DO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE!!! Literally I felt my IQ lower by the minute. The writers, producers and whoever came up with the idea really NEED to research more about the subject and to actually have a plot line. Even this comment has a punching line. Sheesh.

Even 80s movies have better writing than this. If this were an independent movie or their first movie, I'd be like "ok fine, it's comprehensive." But NO. I cannot emphasize this enough, DO NOT watch this. If you ever feel the urge to watch it, go play outside or let your toddler watch their favorite show. Whatever they want to watch will be MILLION times batter than this flat line, potato with no salt movie.

Having a boss that has done things that you may not do to come and stay on top of things (no pun intended), is not the easiest thing. Of course there is an added bonus to things - if you have read what happens or what the movie is really about, you know what I mean. And the beginning with the two lovers makes even more sense in that context. Also the fact that we see our main female (hero?) character nude. Yes not all bed sheets cover female breasts while leaving mens upper body uncovered ... just saying.

If you have issues with a fairly small scene because of that, maybe this isn't for you. But this is not about that, the movie has way more out there scenes that you may take issues with. And they do not have anything to do with nudity. If you are able to, you may see this from both sides and sort of understand certain decisions ... at least to a certain degree. It is tough and depending on your morals ... well you'll see. The movie is quite predictable for some I would assume, but no brownie points if you guess certain twists .. it had to happen that way now didn't it?

But that's when the cracks emerge. The way I see this film is like a spanish remake of the devil wears Prada, but with some thriller thrown in for good measure. It starts off pretty good and you see this young aspiring woman good to a job interview. Her boss seems off immediatly and her boyfriend is as horny as a rabbit. I enjoyed the cast and they were fine enough. The plot was ok but failed in the second half of this and felt like a stodgy mess of pieces that didn't go anywhere. If there was just something more that couldve made it more interesting then it would have been foundOverall another netlflix movie that fails in its execution but with an enjoyable cast for the most part.
