The first 30 minutes of this film feel very boring, and the story is uninteresting and uncompelling. Most of the whole scene used a long shot static camera, giving it the effect of the filming seem lazy. But it's still understandable given that the subject matter raised was bullying and it is feared that it will scare young audiences.
As the story progressed, I was impressed by the intimidation and harassment that the protagonist gets, at first she still tried to counterattack without being passive, although in the end she will lose due to being outnumbered.
I don't know why most stories of bullying are always done in groups, at least two people against one person. When I was a child when I myself was a victim, were they afraid to attack one-on-one? For what? Makes them feel superior? No, to me, they are cowards.
If only the reveal of Alejandra was still alive which she was spotted on the beach after roughly 1:17:00 was deleted. Because it's ridiculous to think that Roberto will go to jail and his daughter will be alone. If I could fix one thing in this film, I would keep Alejandra missing and her body not be found, I think this film would be much more interesting.
Overall, Después de Lucía is still a good film to show kids and parents in homes or schools about bullying and sex education.
