    Good movie... but I had a very cold feeling when it ended.

    Luis Tosar is a great actor!!! Fantastico Luis!!I I found the film very tense and exciting, it's for sure worth watching!! Certainly the best Spanish film I have seen in a long time.

    I just don't understand how this narco criminals, had so much power, weapons.... etc... really anoying!! That's why I think the film loses some power towards the end!!! , a real freezing cold end.

    The price of revenge

    A very strong movie on Netflix. What is the price you would pay for revenge? To me, it seems pretty much accurate...

    Wasn't Exactly What I Was Expecting, But Okay.

    I think most people would probably agree with me that, if this film was remade Hollywood style, the ending would be vastly different than this Spanish version. Generally, the acting was fine. No complaints about the cinematography, story and music, either. Pacing also wasn't that bad. What was missing? A satisfying conclusion, but your mileage may very.

    Good film with great acting and script.

    Nicely done dark, suspense filled Spanish revenge thriller. The writing is excellent, tension keeps building throughout to some effective twists at the climax. Luis Tosar is excellent as always. I enjoyed it, a couple of hours well spent.

    Glued till the end.

    Spanish people can really make great films! This sick twisting drama is so well done that you would not blink for a second. The performance of all actors are extremely well done and the story left a bitter/sweet taste on your mouth.

    The editing, the Music, the script and of course the Direction ... i mean ... its hard to find a film that is so complete.

    If you are looking for something else to watch but you don't know what... this is your movie... but be aware... it is nothing but crude.
