      Rosana B Peculiar, louco e insano como alguns internos do hospício, não tão grandioso quanto a sinfonia macabra e amaldiçoada, roteiro simples, intercalando passado e presente de forma bem sucedida, muito sangue, belas imagens com as cenas sanguinária, destaque para a fotografia e as locações, visualmente belas… Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member We can se, diffused in the film's ambition, the clues that tell us the great director Pablo Larraín would be in a future, but its wildly uneven and disorganised material, makes difficult for the viewer to connect with the story, a story that, by the way, seems to lack of a clear purpose. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Pablo Larraín's first effort shows promise when the Chilean auteur lets loose his bleak and outrageous sensibilities (mainly portrayed through Alfredo Castro's character, who will later cement himself as Larraín's muse), but its bugged down when it aims for the conventional and doesn't know how to handle a convoluted sub-plot. Still is worth it for the moments that show the artist behind Toni Manero and El Club. Picture Whiplash by way of Darren Aronofsky.
