Irrémédiable

I wasn't sure what I should expect with this but it ended up being ok. There are a a few tedious moments but for the most part I stayed engaged. The acting was good but I think it could have benefited from a bit more depth into the characters back stories. There were some things going on that could've used a bit more explanation.

Decent watch though.

At a normally comfortable 94 minutes, this one felt much longer. I can't put my finger on any one reason, because the pacing was ok, which usually is the issue.

There's a lot going on, almost too much that I feel is unnecessary, and there just isn't enough suspense until the last quarter of the film. The tittle, The Paramedic, really doesn't suit the story, and even being one in this film was really just filler. I'd rather some emerg doctor cross the street, get hit by a car, and then get the ball rolling with the main acts.

The casting and performances were quite good, and the directing was decent, but this thriller needed more thrills. It's a good one-time watch if you've nothing else to watch.

I started watching and and it didn't take long before the main character's behaviour gave me the creeps. The movie centers around him handling his new life with paralysed legs and the resulting frustration about it, which he works out on his girlfriend. Him being stuck at home also worsens his already existing jealousy towards his girlfriend which ultimately gains the upper hand.

His actions constantly made me curious about what he was going to do next and I liked the suspenseful atmosphere that was created. Mario Casas puts down a good performance here. Not all the things happening in the movie are realistic but overall I liked the movie. Not as bad as some reviews here are saying.

After weeks of trying to find a good film on Netflix (having watched almost all the decent ones) I finally came across this gem. A hugely enjoyable Spanish psychological thriller that I was glued to throughout - and a few unexpected plot twists along the way. Really enjoyable movie (there are actually a few really good Spanish thrillers on Netflix if you take the time to find them). Disturbing, creepy, suspenseful, good acting, good camera work and a fantastic ending. At times disturbing to watch, but that's why we enjoy psychological thrillers, isn't it? I give it 8 out of 10.

Poor character development Movie has 2 characters who are pieces of crap The tone is dark The whole time I was expecting more paramedicy
