3/10
A great start spoiled entirely
5 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
It started out good. It was interesting, the characters were mysterious, the motivation for both mains was there.

Then Sofia moves to Beatriz and the madness begins. You cannot understand what her problem is. She never says she wants out, and even when offered an opportunity to leave, she stays. She acts as if she was forced, hurt or enslaved by Beatriz, while none of that is true.

At the end, she ends up a robber and murderer. I nearly lost it when she actually yelled out "I don't know what I want!" - do you really want your main character be that dumb and evil?

The summary of the movie says 'it's too late to get out' . Not true. It never gets to that point where she is abused in any way. Beatriz offers her to leave with no consequences more than once. Get out of what? She doesn't even try, she just f...s up everyone and leaves.

By the way, at the end, she does not seem to give a s... of her boyfriend anymore, she just packs the cash and jewellery. The movie makes her a common criminal.

And all this from a woman who we see pray to God multiple times in the movie.

Also, one thought: how the hell did she think this would work? Was she hoping her boyfriend would never find out anything? Not find the marks of a full-term pregnancy and a birth or cesarian on her body? How stupid is she?!

The second half is just a mess, too bad, after a good start.

If the point was to turn the protagonist into the villain, Beatriz's story should have been told and made victim. But the last moment of her attacking Sofia kind of states her position as a villan too.

Such a mess.

All I really care about at this point is if Max is okay. Woof.
