El caso de las almas inocentes

WOW what a bad movie! We had only seen a few minutes, when the acting (or lack of) began to stand out like a sour thumb.

Apparently the lead character (Julie Ølgaard) act, direct , produce and write this film. I think she most definitely should have given some of those tasks to other, more competent people.

The acting is beyond poor, even with a cast where i KNOW that several of the actors are seasoned, and normally good actors, that fail miserably in this story.

All the plotpoints are clichees, that we have seen in countless other (and quite better films).

There are no suspense and as a viewer you dont relate to any of the characters. I would higly recommend you skip this film as i frankly think it is a waste of time.

No pun intended - the movie starts off quite strong .. and shows from the start this is not for the faint of heart! So if you are sensitive, if you are not able to stomach, not just violence shown with blood, but with ferocity ... maybe this movie is not for you. There is a lot going on and I reckon it does show the depths a "misguided" human can fall into.

And yes I know I am being nice with my description. And I am not the parent of the individual - how would I react if I were? Well I know I would try everything to help the victims, because however much you may say blood is thicker than water ... we are all humans. We all are someones son or daughter. Why do I say this and make a point of it? Well you will understand if you watch the movie.

Unfortunately the police seem to have missed that point. You would have assumed that if someone knows of the existence of a killer, you would not let them ... well you would at least have them under surveillance ... the very least. So suspend your disbelief ... and don't be shocked ... actually you very likely will be shocked! No prisoners taken ...

Keep in mind, I am in no way a professional film critic. The other reviews mention bad acting but I don't think the acting is bad, the ending has the best acting in my opinion. The script/dialogue is a bit boring, but I guess it's realistic. The ending is confusing and unrealistic and a bit anticlimactic, and left me feeling cheated. I don't think it could have happened in real life in any way, and the aftermath of the scene is not mentioned or shown. The overall storyline and plot is nothing special. Visually and lighting wise it is a beautiful film. Overall I did enjoy it but I will not be rewatching it.

The actors perform their roles perfectly, but they have nothing to perform: all the characters are devoid of character and represent ordinary people, the director does not reveal them. There is no conflict, the heroine's family problems are almost invisible. The film is a small work without any special plot twists, which does not arouse interest.

There is nothing in the picture except the presence of a maniac and well-shot scenes. Hallucinations of the main character are rare and do not carry an explicit meaning.

The film does not evoke an emotional response from the viewer, except, perhaps, the desire to finish watching it.

There are authors who, being ignorant, create films that evoke various emotions in the audience, but this film does not make any emotional impression - it's a waste of time! I don't remember a single movie that didn't have real feelings!

I couldn't watch this movie to the end.

This movie is beautifully filmed with good locations, great lighting, well chosen locations, and more. Many of the actors play quite well, but the script leaves a lot to be desired.

The characters have depth, and that great, but the script is extremely depressive and there is zero humor to balance it out. I do not mind dark moods in a movie, but the themes in this movie are like a bottomless pit of sadness.

Overall, I would have rated this 6/10, but the film is extremely violent almost as if the writer is more interested in shocking the audience than to deliver a good story. And near the end, the script falls apart, the story looses realism and everything just stops making sense.
