¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesOne of the films that appear in the TV while the people in the bar look for the news is William Castle's House on Haunted Hill (1959), a film in which strangers are trapped in a (supposedly) haunted house. In The Bar, the strangers are trapped in a bar. Another coincidence is the number of people: in The Bar, there are nine people inside the building. In House on Hauted Hill, there are five guests, but counting the hosts and servants, there are also nine people inside the building.

Reseña destacada
Well, what to say about Alex de la Iglesia's latest black comedy thriller...other than, it's a wild ride, that I could see it pissing a lot of people off, because it purposefully leaves a whole load of massive loose ends wide open.
As if to say...it's more about the journey, than the destination...or starting point, for that matter.
It starts off with a bang. Well...two, actually.
And it only get's weirder from their...
At first no one knows what's going on...so paranoia kicks in. And, inevitably, everyone starts to turn on each other.
This portion of the film is a bit of a mystery...but at least it is saturated with dark humour.
As twist after twist is introduced, it takes you on this journey through extreme paranoia...as you try and figure out what the hell is going on (alongside the characters...who are great, by the way).
But you never do! Making the whole thing about trust vs paranoia, and where that will get you in the end.
On this ride, you will experience laughter, anger, frustration, discomfort, tension, fear and disgust.
As with all de la Iglesia flicks, it's pretty dialogue heavy...with action reserved for the second act.
But the whole thing is downright hilarious...as conspiracy theories turn to germophobic paranoia, when a diseased man is found in the bathroom, dying from some unknown virus, with a syringe in his hand- having just injected himself with the antidote...only...too late.
His dying words are, "don't touch me"...but it's likely they are all already infected anyways...and there are more bodies than syringes with the antidote...so, drama ensues from there.
If you enjoy films based around a twisted sense of humour, that like to mess with your head...then you will certainly enjoy this film.
But you really have to keep an open mind- and get rid of your expectations- or you will get caught up in traditional complaints that don't really apply here...and it will ruin your chance to enjoy the film.
With that being said...I thought it was a hoot! Got me riled up and right into; made me laugh; made me angry; and triggered my germophobia (meaning i'd have probably been dead pretty early on haha).
Fans already familiar with Iglesia will enjoy this the most...but anyone with an open enough mind can hop on for one helluva wild ride.
Just leave those expectations at the door.
7 out of 10.
