Tres 60

I understand the criticism and I would concur on most things. The main character/actor is not as inspiring and motivational to the viewer as he should be. One of the stronger points of the movie is the kid actor, who while a bit annoying is played rather well. The girlfriend seems not to have to do much, looking good is not a task.

The tension is there and the story itself could be considered worth while. There are of course always circumstances that make you cringe and will get a lot of disbelief from the audience. But that's how most suspense movies work in the end. This is a nice movie that is more than decent, but it's not excellent by a long shot

Spanish mystery movie film full of thrills , suspense , chills , intrigue and plot twists . It gives a terrifying and disturbingly juvenile view of fears in which posses an element of horror about human organ transplants . The motion picture is pretty well , although sometimes slow moving and packs turns ; however , being entertaining for continuous suspense and unsettling atmosphere . It deals with Guillermo or William (Raúl Mérida) , a young who started an investigation after discovering by chance an old revealed photographic film in the renovation of the house of their fathers . His discovery uncovers enigmatic frames and a familiar face : his best childhood friend , Ivan , gone for too long . As William becomes involved with a mysterious investigation that leads a sinister group (Manuel Morón , Joaquin De Almeida , Felipe García Vélez) commanded by a heinous old woman , Jean Christophe (Geraldine Chaplin) . Along the way he discovers a lot of tracks , being helped by Daniela (Sara Sálamo) , Ruso (Adam Jezierski) and his youngest brother Mario (Guillermo Estrella) . As the valiant bunch pulls the threads , but the initial curiosity of the quartet becomes more and more terrifying .

This nail-biting movie packs excellent creation of creepy taut , thriller , emotions and rare atmosphere . Mystery , terror , eerie intrigue about a young seeking clues about a strange disappearance . This exciting , bizarre film contains tension , thriller , drama , mystery , plot twists and shocks , including decent scares with tense and thrilling sequences especially in its final part , in a creepy denouement . Tense , interesting screenplay by Luiso Berdejo who wrote -and also produced- the strange plot revolving the mental disintegration of a young who suffers continuous nightmares and overwhelmed by the friend's disappearance and the various astonishing surprises he finds . Here rookie filmmaker Alejandro Ezcurdia embarks into a phantasmagorical , or even quasi-surrealist story . The picture is thrilling and some moment brilliant , and the actors are quite reliable . As acceptable acting by Raoul Mérida as a passionate young university surfer who becomes involved into a dangerous investigation of unexpected consequences , as well as his pal and sweetheart , the gorgeous Sara Sálamo . Support cast is pretty well , filled with veteran players in brief interventions , such as : Manuel Morón , Felipe García Vélez , Joaquin De Almeida and special mention for Geraldine Chaplin as old evil-doer .

Intelligent edition , special use of dark as well as atmospheric sets and slick utilization of shock images make this one , a decent mystery film . Sinister and mysterious atmosphere is finely photographed by a nice cameraman , Johnny Yebra , that heightens the suspense . He photographs splendidly the appropriate interiors and colorful exteriors from Donostia-San Sebastián , Guipúzcoa, País Vasco and including ¨Hotel Maria Cristina¨ of the city of Donosti . Adequate and suspenseful musical score by Roque Baños . Roque has made a prestigious career , as National : ¨800 bullets¨ , ¨Fragiles¨ , ¨Celda 211¨ , as International : ¨In the heart of the sea¨, ¨Cantinflas¨, ¨Old boy¨ , ¨Evil Dead¨ , ¨Machinist¨, ¨Sexy beast¨. The motion picture produced by the great Santiago Segura was professionally directed by Alejandro Ezcurdia at his film feature debut , here he includes genuine chills , suspense , mystery and dark atmospheres . However , "Three-60" or ¨Tres 6¨ failed at the Spanish box office .

I thought it will be clearer in the end, but... Probably the writer lost his idea in some fast writing as,...Well, it is better to write something than nothing. Although it has horror atmosphere, childhood memories and some love story in between, it is pretty much empty.

I really like twisted endings, especially when they are so cleverly crafted that they shock and amuse, well this is not the case.

Without spoiling it for anyone, I have questions-for everyone involved in this movie.

However, before that, I have to mention that I was really intrigued about how it would end,( it was really late, and twenty minutes before the end, I went to sleep), because as interesting as it seemed to be, it was losing its appeal as an outstanding idea for a movie.

I have to mention that even though I had given a pass to the lack of a real character development I was still into it.

Let's get to the questions and arguments: Is it morally right for the characters or anyone in real life to forget about our own principles just for our own benefit? What about a commitment for what we really believe and pursue?

IF the character in peril had been more valuable than the life of so many innocents (at least in the eyes of the ones watching the movie), I would have "accepted" it.

And yes, I tried to put myself in the same situation, and yes,I get the point!, "the drastic change of heart in the main characters" (even though is merely a betrayal to what a decent human should do), after all, that is the way they were introduced to us.

Without argument: the "moral dilemma", (unfortunately), in here is resolved with,just a quick: "cut and that's a wrap." and that is unreliable and the main problem with this movie.

As I said, I wondered: what I would have done myself in real life? But... the writers, actors, and director did not provide with a real motivation to feel for it, the undeniable justification for the ending do not exist, and certainly, just because,"I am doing the girl" and I made a mistake, do I have to betray anyone or anything that should have been more important?, not just for me but for others...

The credibility fails as the interaction between the filmmakers and viewers developed in a different way for what it was intended.

After all, the consequences of the actions are the result of reckless and erratic behavior combined with a misguided-moral-compass of the two brothers, and it becomes difficult to figure out who comes more dumb and senseless: Mario, the 'genius' (?) or Guillermo and let's not talk about evilness because who 'is the less despicable and rotten' in here, truthfully not even the "bad guys" after all they just become spectators for the human misery, and just a caricature of what they could have been. To add to it, what a waste for the talent of Joaquim de Almeida.

I truly understand the point of the story: changing heart and mind in a full circle, but I have seen shorts that described in a more powerful way what this movie intended.

By any means I would say: "stop watching as soon as the bedroom scene , after the question in the hospital,after the car accident, then get a notebook and write your own ending", because unfortunately, TRES60 (2013) does not give real space for discussions on any moral, philosophical or whatnot issue at least not with the way it was presented.

Finally I have a recommendation for these filmmakers: "Would You Rather" (2012) because that is the way you convey the message on a movie.
