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.

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.

A new Italian mystery on Netflix. After the assault of a young woman in their seaside town, a security expert and his family become caught in a powerful wave of secrets and lies.

The first 50 minutes introduced many characters that had each of their own story. Even though it felt like the story was meandering for a long time, I hoped that these elements would converge and had significant meaning.

Well some of them did. Recently I have watched Oddtaxi, which was one of the most well-written anime that I have watched in terms of bringing all the plots details together. For this movie, I was only bored during the first 50 minutes, and I was engaged for the rest of the 2 hour runtime. This was because the main mystery itself had sufficient amount of buildup and made sense. However, thinking back, I realized there were many elements that didn't add anything to the story. Some notable ones were the security expert's insomnia, his wife's and daughter's stories. They pretty much only extended the runtime.

Even more, the plot revolved around the security system in this affluent town that had multiple cameras in people's house to watch for burglars and the 'undesirables'. The movie tried to have a message about this, and it was such nonsense and not justified at all.

Overall, a weak script that didn't tie all parts together. 5.5/10.

This is an engaging film of broken relationships set in the popular Italian resort town of Forte dei Marmi off the Ligurian coast.

It takes the mauling of a young student for these relationships to unravel. To be sure, it's a low key, sober film but it captures the viewer's attention. How the relationships unravel is the film's strong suit.

This film succeeds effectively in showing the viewer how relationships are fragile and that we've to nurture them for them to last. But, at the same time, healing is possible.

The actors, both young and old, performed well.

Watch it. It'll be worth your while. Ciao.

Nice idea and well chosen site to develop it: a small coastal town during winter time.

Acting is good too, as well as filmography which I've found excellent.

There are a couple of things which I've found inconsistent thus I gave it a 7 and not an 8.
