Trastorno (2006) User Reviews

A Collection of Clichés Awfully Dubbed in English

[claudio_carvalho · 4/10 · 19 April 2009]

The seven month pregnant Natalia (Najwa Nimri) and her wealthy husband Jaime (Pep Munné) welcome Natalie's sister Elena (Ingrid Rubio) and her boyfriend Mario (Juan Sanz) to spend the weekend in their manor. After a miscarriage, Elena proves that is an unbalanced and disturbed woman obsessed to have a baby even if she needs to kill.

The terrible "Trastorno" is a collection of clichés awfully dubbed in English. The story is absurdly unreasonable, and the attitudes of Natalia are simply ridiculous; Ingrid Rubio uses grimaces to express an insane woman; actually a caricatured character. Why should Natalia invite Elena to stay at her home if she feels scared with her deranged sister? The corny conclusion is silly. My vote is four.

Title (Brazil): "Jogo de Obsessão" ("Game of Obsession")

This movie is so bad...Best I can say is that is not too long, being less than 90 minutes. Acting: I have only appreciated some acting from Munné, which clearly can be a good actor. He's the only one remarkable in this movie and fatally, has not enough part to be appreciated. The other man, Elena's friend, is not too bad. Personally, I think that Nimri and Rubio must seriously reconsider theirs roles before say yes to the directors... Script: Awful, full of clichés and non-sense situations! Relationship between the sisters is not credible. First, they don't kiss themselves in the first meeting...there is not any warmness between them...there is a rejection to dance from Natalia...then, why to propose to share a weekend together? Everything is easy to know before it happen: madness and motivations, the different killings, everything...it's awful.It's non-sense. If, for example, you can not get your husband directly by phone, you let a message!!! but Natalia, in danger, doesn't do..it's ridiculous! The sentences are so typical..."tú me ponías toallas y me reventaste por dentro", "lo criaremos juntos"..Just before the "climax" scene, you know how it will finish. In addition, is necessary to copy "The Omen" for a defenestration scene??? Even the final scene is mediocre! How many times the recurse of confusing a person with the psycho of turn?
