Mirage

After Contratiempo and El Cuerpo, i really thought that no one could do anything better but obviously i'm wrong. I liked this film so much. Not even a moment i felt bored. Unbelievably good, wow again. Thanks.

In a film industry so over saturated with rip off and remakes it was refreshing to see something so refreshingly original even if it was a Netflix special. Whilst at times it was a little predictable there was enough other twists along with a great general premise and some great performances to make this more than worthwhile and a thoroughly entertaining time despite its occasional flaws. Well 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.

Fascinating concept built into a suspenseful story with exciting twists.

After The Body, The Invisible Guest, and now this, Oriol Paulo has become one of my faviourite directors. Just wonderful!

The ending is a bit weak, but nevertheless a highly fascinating and enjoyable ride!

As a movie this one is a solid 7/10 - 8/10, as a fan for both the genre and the director, I gave it 9/10.

Being excessively binary, either you are ultra-rational and you will probably feel that this story is far-fetched, either you have a strong appetite for the 'Twilight Zone' atmospheres, and you should love this movie. If I have to be categorized, I clearly belong to the second category: I liked this story which establishes a literally extra-ordinary connection between Nico (a 12-year-old kid living in 1989) and Vera (a 30-year-old mother living in 2014), thanks to a vhs recorder and an unconventional storm. Thus, the mother prevents the death, 25 years earlier, of this teenager which implies the passage from one space-time to another: a complete new life for her, without her daughter but with the full memory of the ancient life, especially her daughter, now nonexistent. What a nightmare! But, she definitely wants her ancient life back.

These are the first 15 minutes. The continuation is to be discovered and enjoyed !
