Invitación a un Asesinato

I think the script was written by middle schoolers. The dialogue is terrible. Stupid clues that make no sense eg. The yoga instructor eating with his left hand meant he never went to India. Yes, someone who vacationed in India is taking on all their customs. Plot points and revelations are utterly predictable too. Some had me rolling my eyes. The acting is ridiculously bad-particularly the "actor" that played the detective and the victims sister. He's straight out of some community play and she simpers and clings to her love interest like he's isn't creepy and gross with bad makeup and hair. The female protagonist is okay but has no personality. Don't waste your time.

Booriiiinggg. It is no need to comment too much. I finished 15 minutes and I can say enough fake agatha Christie stories please! This is not convincing. I felt lots of vibes from this movie. Everybody does something very suspicious and also from the beginning in podcast part, she says 'if you look at details, you can solve' and you try to not miss anything and this is really boring. Every scenes are so tiring! I didn't like it. I can say that. I think for this genre, every thing has been said and no new anymore. My words finished here. It was in my list and I think I will not finish the movie. Because it didn't capture me.

I know it usually called Murder Mystery - so no pun intended as always if you will. That said, you have to have a special humor and a vested interest in the genre - that is crime movies but also the whodunnit aspect of it all. Are you interested? Do you like it when you can keep guessing? Not that this movie is anywhere close to the greats (that includes the recent Daniel Craig movies with Glass Onion and so many others).

The acting is ok, the movie itself knows what it wants to tell - though the pacing could be better I reckon. We do have some flaws and some inconsistencies to overcome. Nothing too major ... but I also reckon many probably will know where this is heading, before it ends up there ... still it is fun and what more could you ask of a movie?

I wasn't going to see this movie because I thought it was going to be about divas on a yacht, sex and drugs or something like that. The truth is that I found it very entertaining and different. The story may be somewhat cliché, yes, we already know it, but this one has very unexpected and original twists until the very end, and it is very comfortable to watch, with great landscapes and photography of Mexico, and some good actors, not all. Regina Blandón and Maribel Verdú are the stars!

The reactions of this funny group of friends after a dramatic situation could have been more real, although that gives it that touch of parody and eccentricity, that's what it's all about.

They also could have used more and better humor, since the jokes are somewhat bland.

It's like watching a long episode of the English series 'DEATH IN PARADISE', which I love. Even the movie poster!

Much better than I expected, and I think the rating is too low, this movie it's sarcasm, parody, and adventure with that good feeling of mistery to be solved on the beach and vacation atmosphere that we all like.

I definitely recommend it, very refreshing and original, just to have a good and chill time. And with a totally unexpected ending.

Spanish film with people brought on a yacht by Olivia (Maribel Vertu), including her sister Sonia (Stephanie Cayo), a detective.

Olivia announced that she has a surprise for all of them. Shortly afterward she falls to her death.

Since the yacht is between two jurisdictions, Sonia works on the case - who killed her sister, and why have all these people been gathered here?

This is a convoluted story - the people are connected by a tragedy that took place in Olivia's and then-husband Carlos' life. The ex is also on the yacht, along with Olivia's nemesis, a yoga instructor, a housekeeper, a workman, and later on, a detective.

We aren't given much to go on. At the end, Sonia, with everyone gathered together in true mystery style, reveals the elaborate plot.

This plot was complicated, and I'm not really sure how Sonia figured it out.

It's not horrible, but it has no intensity or interesting atmosphere. We don't get to know the people very well.
