Entre valles

This is not a horror movie, though at times it resembles one: Darkened woods, coarse locals, rusty things, wolves (possibly), a lack of cell service, plenty of bickering, dwindling food.

The scenery is lovely until it is not and turns on the barely likable protagonists. I spent much of the movie stressing over their choices, concepts of charity, and, interestingly, their ignorance. Sometimes you want to applaud the effort they put into providing aid to those who need it, but more often you scoff when they remark about iPads or sodomy or test-driving a Range Rover.

Or when you realize that the bags of supplies they are handing out are unnecessarily difficult to open.

I liked it. It was grating, though, and now that it made its points I don't think I'd watch it again. But still recommended.

Waste of time and gas of not so bad actors...what a pity to waste resources of an already suffering terminal disease of the state owned system of producing ....kind of movies...sad!

The movie was actually good and some moments had a lot of tension but im afraid the ending could have been better,honestly the whole movie could have gone completely in another direction sometime in the second part and become a huge thriller horror but hey..it was more of a drama somehow..this way and realistic story that could happen to anyone anywhere.

The problem with "Intregalde" is that it constantly compels us to make decisions while watching the people on the screen make their decisions, theirs and my are mostly not the same. This is not an easy task. You start to hate every one of the four main characters for a while until you stop because one of the others suddenly begins to get on your nerves too. This all is part of the story.

The other problem is that film critics seem to have a hard time to decribe the film. While I was waiting in the cinema for the film to start, I heard people sitting next to me discuss if this is going to be a horror movie or not! It is far from that though it plays with our fears. Our "heroes" are plain normal people and once the got stuck in every sense of the word, they begin to behave illogical. I really don't want to say too much about it because not to know what is going to happen is so important. Please check it out for yourself!

The movie tells the story of 3 friends stuck in the muds of helping secluded villagers somewhere in Romania (although this could happen anywhere).

The director and screenwriters have the grace not to force anything. The people are real, what happens is real, the dialogue is real and beautifully deliverd by the actors. For Romanians, the dialogue is especially savory as it's perfectly mirroring how we speak to one another.

The character of Kente is very well assimilated into the screenplay. We can feel that the "actor" was directed to bring himself into the story and that is both surprising and delightful.

The film is a comedy although no jokes are made. It's also a drama.

The creators shed no judgment on what happens and leave their audience with a lot of things to ponder upon.

Lovely, lovely film!
