Seguridad

I've read several of the comments and like most all movies, the reviews are all over the board. This is a difficult movie to keep up with but if follow all the separate stories they will tie together at the end. Some parts are a little slow and somethings could have been edited out all together and not changed the outcome. Regardless for a sit at home with your feet kinda night; I would recommend you watch it.

The premise is quite good, but the slow execution, almost tiring, dragging, discouraged, it became tedious, but the original idea, of the benefits and harms of surveillance, which can be used in a derogatory way, as unnecessary and humiliating exposed, but as evidence of crimes, alibis and accusations... But if you manage to overcome the initial ostracism, we were delighted with an excellent work... Wonderful outcome, the film reminded me of the painful "Jagten"...

The move plot could be interesting but it gets messy and confusing pretty quick. A lot of stories tie together somehow but the resulting mix makes little sense.

Marco D'Amore and Fabrizio bentivoglio are good actors and did a nice job but I didn't like Maya Sansa at all, I'm sorry. She struggles to show any emotion, she seems to talk and act the same way despite of the scene she's in. It's also very difficult to understand what she says, because of the low and unclear voice.

The young guys, all of them, acted well.

This is the type of existential movie we have a lot of, and love, here in Continental Europe but which are so alien to North American and UK viewers, so I can see why most English speakers gave it terrible marks.

Our cousins across the Alps are coming up with great dramas during this pandemic : La Vita davanti a sé, the Zero series, and now this one, Security.

Despite the title Security is not a police thriller or anything similar : it is just a good existential drama around the principal of a security company which installs security systems in rich people's houses in the beautiful real town of Forte dei Marmi - from this film and Google pictures I just want to go and visit it !

This film is all about personal dramas, family dramas, people's varying characters and how some people's character traits can lead to tragedies multiple steps down the line.

I loved it.

But not just that ... with so many characters and so many strands you may be excused if you think this takes on way too much for its own good. It is overall well told, but you may have issues caring for much of it. Who is the bad guy, why is he or she bad and what about all the other people? As I said, you may not care, not just by the end of it, but throughout, which would not be a good sign.

The movie is still quite interesting and with a little more focus might have been able to sway me and make believe there is more to it than I saw. Still there are people who relish and cherish the way this is told. Different strokes and so forth. Just be aware of what you let yourself into ... and you may have the ride you wanted.
