Carmen (Natalia Verbeke) , a gorgeous Spanish girl with a dark past , is about to be married to Barnaby Caspian (James D'Arcy), a good-looking but slightly boring Englishman . While out with other women on her 'hen night' she meets a Brazilian young called Kit (Gael Garcia Bernal) holding his handy camera along with his two friends (Tom Hardy , Charlie Cox) and then following a French tradition she warmly kisses him ; later on , Carmen falls in love for him . As young lovers in London are wrapped up in a love triangle that may not be exactly what it seems . As her wedding date approaches, she finds herself struggling to put this newcomer out of her mind, full of secrets as well as mysteries , but his effect on her keeps growing stronger and danger is in the details.
Drama/Romance/intrigue movie ; the picture begins as a triangular drama and finishes as a thrilling story about a strange trio and their twisted relationship among them , filled with lasting images , delightful interpretations , style , slow moving and plot twists . It is an exciting film displaying suspense , intrigue , plot points , a touching love story , nudism and interesting drama well written by the same filmmaker Matthew Parkhill . In ¨Dot the I¨ , we see a surprisingly thoughtful approach to an otherwise tiring premise, one we're confident audiences will be well gripped into a peculiar romance and a twisted intrigue . Likable acting by Natalia Verbeke as a beautiful woman with a tendency to lose her temper at the drop of a hat , James D'Arcy as a caring, wealthy young and Gael Garcia Bernal as a stranger who suddenly sparks a passion that has been sleeping within her and they have a deep crush on each other . Nice support cast such as two formerly unknown actors : Tom Hardy and Charlie Cox .
Colorful and evocative cinematography by Alfonso Beato , being completely shot in London . Atmospherical musical score by Javier Navarrete , including a spectacular 'Andalucia dance' carried out by Natalia Verbeke at a Flamenco Tablao . This passionate motion picture was well directed by Matthew Parkhill who even appears a cameo as doctor giving bad news in the hospital and the name of the hospital at the ending is "Parkhill Hospital". Matthew Parkhill is a writer and producer, known for (2003), Rogue (2013) and Romeo Thinks Again (1998) and especially this ¨El Punto Sobre la I¨ or ¨Dot the I¨ . Rating : Better than average , worthwhile watching .

The cast is sexy, the writing is brilliant, and the plot twists are unbelievable!
This is the "Must See" movie of the year! "MOMENTO" fans, who are chomping at the bit for another clever movie, will love the twists and turns of "DOT THE I".
To share the plot would be an injustice. SEE THIS MOVIE! You will laugh, you will cry, you will be dumbfounded, but never disappointed!

In London, in a French restaurant, the Spanish Carmen Colazzo (Natalia Verbeke) is celebrating with her girlfriends her next wedding with the wealthy British Barnaby R. Caspian (James D'Arcy). On her table, sit the Brazilian Kit Winter (Gael García Bernal) with his handy camera and two friends, and following a French tradition, Carmen warmly kisses Kit, and they have a crush on each other. This is the beginning of a delightful movie, full of secrets, mysteries and plot points.
Yesterday I saw "Dot the I" with the recommendation of a friend of mine. I was expecting to see a usual triangle of love romance, but I found a surprisingly great-unknown movie, full of twists. Inclusive there is a silly last scene in the middle of the credits. Although Gael García Bernal has no biotype of Brazilian, he shows a fantastic chemistry with the delicious and sexy Natalia Verbeke. James D'Arcy is amazing in the role of the cynical Barnaby. The intriguing, passionate and provocative story was the wonderful surprise of my weekend. My vote is nine.

This movie has lots of twists and turns and some have said an improbable storyline. Yet who wants to watch a move which is predictable? Another comment is 'couldn't it have been left as a good romance?' NO, there are lots of romance films around such as 'The Notebook'. This movie is basically a good thriller with a mega finale.
It has suspense, a good plot, great acting, believable characters and is different from the bog standard thriller.
I was glued to this movie from beginning to end. A definite must see for all who love a great story.
Enjoy

The direction and writing of this film are superb. Matthew Parkhill has a wonderful and original talent of storytelling and the acting justifies every step the film takes. The dialog is interesting yet realistic and the characters are believable and extremely interesting. Natalia Verbeke has an acting style that is both likable and mysterious. I feel like the acting of the piece can potentially make or break the complicated story and I found that all three lead characters had a strong and specific enough performance that made the the plot fly.
I've been waiting for a film like this for a long time.
Truly excellent.

Theo: Yeah it is. Come on, whatever you say, whatever you do, movies always got there first. Even that line you just said comes from a movie, um - Kevin Spacey in the end of, uh, Swimming With Sharks.
