    IS THERE A PART TWO?

    This is the first tittle I watch in Netflix that made me want to know if there are more parts coming up, this is genius, accurate and dummy prove explicatory of the biggest of the realities, being literal.

    The perfect approach that can help anyone understand the generality to arrive to the understanding of our human particularities.

    The movie is originally in Castellano and English what appeared to me as an incredible design of the film because there is not better way to speak about science than in English and about passion than in Spanish.

    Another prove that Spanish Cinema never will let you down, they keep up the flag of mastery in the education of all their actors, directors and cinematographers.

    Amazing

    I don't know how the script was written but man, it is absolutely genial!!! 10/10 Not to mention if you watch it with 420 on board, amazing!

    part two?

    It is quite a good and educative way to explain what we call love and affection. It was demonstrated with charming characters in a way that anybody can relate. I also loved the animations and documentariesque scenes.

    Annoying

    It's annoying how they over use the comments of the scientist for every single scene of the movie

    Original Take

    The movie certainly has an original concept, namely explaining human relationships through physics, and the way it's shot is different and fresh.

    The story is also not bad. Although not very original, it shows us the beauty as a relatively sympathetic person, sorely misunderstood by our protagonist. This is a welcome departure from the standard of nerds being portrayed as the perpetual good guys, always misused by vapid beauties..

    But what seems to be the movies strengths, are ultimately also the causes of it's problems Namely the big problem of pacing is partially owed to constructing the story in this extremely nonlinear mock documentary, which simply kills the tempo of the film. Secondly, with the pacing so uneven, the protagonist's neuroses become almost insufferable.

    All in all a good fresh movie worth a watch, but unfortunately far from great.
