I wasn't expecting this film to be so good. It's an understated thriller with a very good plot that keeps you wondering what will happen till the end. Great cast and very convincing acting, would highly recommend! It's been the best time travel film I've seen in a while
An absorbing story of time warp ,during a storm ( hence the title) ; the communication ,through an old TV set ,of a boy of the late eighties ( the fall of the wall of Berlin was a good choice ,for , to many people ,it means the end of the twentieth century ) and a contemporary woman ;and a harrowing dilemma: if she prevents the boy from being run over by a car ,little did she know that her whole life would be changed ,the worse being the loss of her daughter who becomes the girl that never was; add a murder mystery and you've got a gripping thriller , well acted, which sustains the interest till the very end .
I'd tone things down a bit nevertheless: it borrows perhaps too much from another excellent Spanish film "abre los ojos" (1997) which came aside as a shock at the time ;in spite of its unqualified brilliance, there's some "déjà vu" in " durante la tormenta" .

I have become a huge fan of time travel-ish movies and psychology thriller lately. in fact i would admit that the series "DARK" on Netflix is still my top five netflix original and you should totally watch it if you haven't already.
Anyway, i really enjoyed "Mirage", i thought it was well written. well shot and well acted. i was on the edge of my seat the entire time. its definitely worth a watch.
25 years separate 2 electrical storms through which 2 people have an interaction and changes the future for one and the reality for the other. After the change, there are only 72 hours to find a way to reverse things.
This is a well thought out film. The story is written in a way that keeps you hungering for answers. The actors played their parts well and that pulls the viewer in as well.
My only complaint has to do with the ending. I wanted to see more of the consequences in the aftermath of all that happened. It was a good film regardless. Glad I checked it out.

This is the 3rd movie i watch for the Catalan director, and man did he deliver another masterpiece.
The plot is genius and most importantly "current" coping with this age and so original. The script itself was tight and connected ,, and even thought it was a bit slow in the beginning but turns so helpful to clear things up before introducing the "time lines change" idea.
The cast were all perfect ,, from the lead Adriana Ugarte to Álvaro Morte (the guy from the Netflix show money heist) and Chino Darín and even the kid was really good.
Netflix knows where to invest ,, the other day i read that Steven Spielberg attacking Netflix that they shouldn't be on the Oscars and so on (After they won three Oscars for Roma by Alfonso Cuarón) .. My say in this was ... "The future is now old man" , Netflix knows whats worth spending money on ,, and they harvest what they planted.

- GoofsThe movie story line happens between 1989 and 2014, but there's a calendar in the wall, dating August 2017, when Vera arrives in her supposed house in the new time line.
