Movie was not at ALL what I expected but then again I didn't really know what TO expect. I am on this foreign/independent film kick utilizing netflix to the best of it's Foreign and Independent Film Library ability. :) that being said on to my review. I will say this movie is a "ode" to independent film makers as well as just how far "reality TV" can go. The first few frames of the movie is all telling you may think that they are just showing random interesting locations but it is very well done how they pull it all together at the end. The clever use of cameras and camcorders in this movie is as much a part of the plot as the words and actions of the actors. The story/plot itself seems familiar enough.... love triangle, girl gets engaged to rich boy, girl meets someone more passionate, girl keeps running into the more passionate boy, fiancé's finds out yada yada yada.... at times this movie hints at some underlying thriller {tones} Carmen has a past boyfriend that was psycho to whom she believes is perhaps in London stalking her. I gave the movie 4 stars because it surprised me, there were times (towards the end) where I sat in front of my TV angry at the actions of one of the actors and then I was clapping my hands when something was pulled off with such ingenuity, yet less than 10 minutes later. In this day and age where you are HARDLY ever surprised or that a movie will make you feel such varying emotions in the span of your hour and 30 minutes I can't recommend this one enough. Also the young actress that played Carmen (totally reminds me of a spanish/latina Brittany Murphy) did a OUTSTANDING job relaying her emotions as well as the gentleman that played Barnaby her fiancé. Gael García Bernal was okay but I wasn't as impressed in his potrayal as I was when he was in {{Y Tu Mama Tambien}}. Respectfully reviewedRead full review
I loved this movie! I'm a stickler for a new concept and am only highly impressed by movies that aren't carbon copies of a thousand other movies. If I can figure out the ending in 10 minutes I don't like it, but this one I found to be outstanding, since the twists and turns kept coming up until the last second. It started out normal enough, but as it progressed I got further and further out on the edge of my seat. Like I said, I only rented it because I like to look at Gael Garcia Bernal (and that was still extremely enjoyable as always), but I bought it because it was REALLY GOOD!
Priced reasonably for a new DVD. Been looking for it for years! Good watch.

I origionally bought this movie because I am a huge Tom Hardy admirer but as I watched the movie I found that the story line was quite interesting and I loved the way it held my attention. Tom is great in his part, we don't see a whole lot of Tom and that was a huge disappointment, never the less this was a great movie to see.
The vidoe store guy recommended this to me and I was just blown away! My husband who falls asleep during most movies was awake to the very end. I have told numerous people about it and made everyone who comes for an overnight visit watch it! Terrific movie that didn't get alot of press or theatre time. Very well made. Very dark and very thought provoking.
