La Jefa - Die Chefin

Having a boss that has done things that you may not do to come and stay on top of things (no pun intended), is not the easiest thing. Of course there is an added bonus to things - if you have read what happens or what the movie is really about, you know what I mean. And the beginning with the two lovers makes even more sense in that context. Also the fact that we see our main female (hero?) character nude. Yes not all bed sheets cover female breasts while leaving mens upper body uncovered ... just saying.

If you have issues with a fairly small scene because of that, maybe this isn't for you. But this is not about that, the movie has way more out there scenes that you may take issues with. And they do not have anything to do with nudity. If you are able to, you may see this from both sides and sort of understand certain decisions ... at least to a certain degree. It is tough and depending on your morals ... well you'll see. The movie is quite predictable for some I would assume, but no brownie points if you guess certain twists .. it had to happen that way now didn't it?

Started pretty good and promising. Got to say that it was related to the horror section on netflix although i much more consider it as kind of thriller or Psychological thriller at best.

Let's start with the main characters. All of them are awful and annoying and hard to get attached to. Although the acting was ok(again, at best. Sometimes bad acting) and the story was kind of fine(until the about the last third of the movie), at that part the movie really went down and it was really looking like the director was doing in on purpuse. So many mistakes on a movie which could be much better organized and although it's not exactly my type of movie genre, i still think it could be much much better with better Directing and casting and much more Logical acts and behaviors from the main characters, especially the main girl.

I will say that in many parts of the movie you can see many disturbing moments and this is what we usually look for in psychological thriller films. However, the way the movie was made from about the middle and especially in the last third just makes me think that it was done on purpose to let another terrible movie be released on Netflix

2/10.

The writers made Sofia look like a VICTIM! She's not the victim here! TOTALLY ABSURD story. Total waste of 1:50:00 minutes. Honestly, it could've been better if the sequence of events were different, like maybe Sofia learned her lesson for being an opportunist and a liar and the boss living happily ever after with Sofia's baby? BTW, she had the right to get rid of Sofi after her delivery because she lied about her education. What a waste of good acting ruined by dumb writers. Really don't understand where you're all getting at. What's the point of this movie? DUH. If you don't want to waste your time, DON'T WATCH this movie.

Although you see low rating, its a very good movie. I feel that the low ratings are just disapproval for not meeting personal expectations, which is ok, This not a thriller or entertainment or comedy. This can be interesting for people who is interested in psychology and philosophy. Its caricature depiction of a common scenario that happens with human beings. That is, even when everything in your life is going well, simple irrational emotions within people like, doubt, suspicion, greed etc can lead you to do things that will ruin your life and the life of people around you. When you watch as a third person you always have this itching in your heart asking why , why is she doing this? I could relate to lot real life scenarios throughout my life that has the central theme of this movie.

It is incredible how one movie can radically change from being good, well directed, strong characters, personalities, even intriguing to absolutely none sense, the ending made no sense at all, to the point that I really don't know what the writer was trying to say, but it felt offensive to women, we are just irrational people, crazy hormonal and irrational. The plot was a bit ambiguous too it has some undeveloped subjects, it has some scenes that don't go anywhere. But aside all this, I think it's worth your time watching this film because the acting is good and the production, they just lose it at the end, you end up scratching your head and thinking what the hell just happened?
