Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Palaest recommended
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Michael Ledo The film opens with a dead mom and a girl in shock. The next thing we know Beatriz (Cristina Brondo) shows up at a sanitarium that contains said girl. She is a doctor who takes pills and sees events that don't happen. My mind quickly turned to "Shutter Island" as I try to figure out the events which are not fully explained (or well clued) until the end.The characters in the film were all confusing and not very likable, plus reading subtitles didn't help. Once you know the end, everything comes together making it a film you would need to watch a second time to catch things you missed the first time. Well structured, but not really a horror as much as a psychological thriller.Guide: sex and FF nudity (Cristina Brondo, Marisol Membrillo)
mario_c This film is a Spanish thriller about madness and denial of reality… When you live a shocking event which deeply affect your emotional stability, your brain has the tendency to reject it, deny it, and sometimes to forget it, either you want it or not… It's a natural instinct. This is the main topic of this movie.The entire film is greatly shot and has a fantastic cinematography, which combines the surreal with the artsy, in great scenarios and camera shots. The plot is involved in mystery since the beginning and the effect of the flashbacks, the white and minimal scenarios, and the whispering voices repeating what was said, like echoes, give it the surreal and sometimes almost lunatic ambiance… The plot is confusing, complex, and not easy to understand; at least until the last five minutes, where the explanations are given, and then all makes sense…There's one sentence in the movie which I appreciated and I think that resumes it very well: "Madness is the eruption of dreams in reality. The bad thing is that you can't distinguish them…"
daniel Carbajo López A dark night, the police receives a mysterious message. A dead woman is found and next to her lays a girl in shock. Beatriz is a famous doctor that starts to work in a mental hospital specialized in hypnosis. While she studies the case of the girl, the little commits suicide, which will cause Beatriz to enter into a world where it is difficult to distinguish between reality and dream. The plot is interesting and at the beginning, the movie is quite catching, but, as the movie develops, it becomes clear that it has anything worthy. It becomes not terrifying nor thrilling, just weird and boring. As an opera prima it is, it's clear to realize that many scenes could be better filmed and the plot is maybe too complex for a newbie. Perhaps with more experience and clearer ideas, the movie could be better. The acting does not helps, too. As at any moment the actors feel comfortable in their papers, perhaps is the inexperienced director that makes this, as he is not able to transmit everything he wants to transmit. the directing its promising, but the experience makes the grade, perhaps in the future, he will make a good film. Let's wait for it.
HumanoidOfFlesh "Hipnos" tell the story of a young and beautiful doctor Beatriz,who starts working with patients in a mental hospital.Soon she realizes that the place hides some dark secrets..."Hipnos" is quite similar to Mathieu Kassovitz's incredibly boring "Gothica".The plot seems rushed and is unoriginal,the pace is slow and some scenes are downright confusing.The acting is decent and Cristina Brondo provides some nice full-frontal nudity.The film looks pretty damn impressive,though.It's truly a shame that the plot is so dull and lifeless.Still like I said the nudity is always welcomed,so I was at least mildly interested.6 out of 10.
