Review of The Unknown – IGN Spain

The cinema in Spain, action genre , while usually not common. Unknown , debut in the direction of Dani de la Torre, is one of the recent exceptions that consolidates the idea that sometimes can be achieved in cinema; a product of this type with certain fetish solvency.

Vaca Films, producer of hits such as Cell 211, El Niño or Extinction, but also some unexpected failure as Lobos de Arga, returns to trust as an actor Luis Tosar icon to try again to find a hit like the first two titles mentioned, led in the past by Daniel Monzón.

Without wishing to compare with any of them, as little to do, The Unknown is formed as a story between thriller and pain for the suffering of families who are indirectly affected by powers (in this case the speculation world of banking, which destroyed and brought to ruin many people).

In the technical and structural, see The recall involves Unknown Last Call , underrated film that developed almost virtually in one place. Here, Luis Tosar is a man of banking, director of a financial institution, who along with her two children is threatened in an alleged car bomb and walking long footage the camera follows him in this situation. He tucked into a trap on four wheels. That it seems a difficult challenge to not to bore the audience with so few twigs initial margin. But the cast (apart from Tosar, which is above) plays well and turning points are advancing the plot. We have Javier Gutierrez, Elvira Minguez, Goya Toledo, Fernando Cayo, Paula River … all at a lower level than Tosar but quite acceptable.

En The Unknown There are two things that make the proposed pure entertainment, with well made plans, photorealistic and dislodging some thrilling moments. The first is its remoteness in the second part of the film, from the emergence of one of the agents that have solved the mess (Elvira Minguez). Everything begins to be fast, incredible and illogical since then because the script of Alberto Marini plays and goes wherever it pleases. The second is that Javier Gutierrez, meritorious character and key in the function, it would have been much better to discover it as a surprise and not as a hook for the poster of the film (much of the footage is simply using your voice on the phone). The recent winner of the Goya is an attraction for the viewer but a cinematic level would have been wonderful surprise. Things marketing and production.



Con However, The Stranger points to Dani de la Torre as manager to consider in the future and is a good debut drinking from a huge influence of Hollywood, in a thriller developed entirely in A Coruña, a city that perfectly fits the developed photographic tone.

Globally The Stranger we work performing better than the script, as pointed quite unlikely in the second stretch, although their high levels of technical and audiovisual motion cameras (with two large sequence plans), in addition to a few good scenes of persecution and / or explosion leave the taste in the positive side. For the lovers of the technical section, it will probably be something more surprising. The Unknown is from and an entertainment product made in Spain.

And do not miss …
