Review of The Method

The Method (2005)
8/10
very good one
29 August 2007
in "El metodo" we can see seven person inside one room. THey are the seven candidates to a perfect businessman job, with few work and great salaries. The seven candidates feel proud of their options and they will do as much as they can to take the job; but they will suffer a new method of selection. The Grönholm Method. There, they will suffer from different psychological test where one to one, the candidates will have to choose who has to leave the room. Then, we will be able to see how man becomes wolf to man, how, shyly at first, angrily at the end they let their most fiery temper rise and great arguments begin. In these claustrophobic environment of absolutely trust-less men, secrets, fears and traitors; the most desperate fight for survival will begin. What would you to do get a job? How deep can you descent in order to triumph in life? The story is enormously catching, with great doses of thrilling, it is like these Agatha Christie's books, where everyone meets and then, the guilty is discovered. You follow all the arguments with your favourites, asking your self who is going to be rejected. In addition, the actors are enormously good. They all are inside their parts and are able to make probable their best acting (it is astonishing to watch to Nimri being able to transmit feelings, and wow, she does it!). i say it is so good, but, why not 9-10?? It is because it is based in a theatre play of Jordi Galceran, and, comparing to the film, the theatre is much better. I'm not saying that the film is bad, it is very very good, but I must admit than the theatre is better and I cannot feel comfortable in giving the movie the best marks. If you could, go to Barcelona, and go to the theatre. It is there until the end of 2007.
