Defies genre to create one of the most unique films in the past few years. There is an imperfect sloppiness to the structure, but that’s also part of its charm.

Nacho Vigalondo's latest is original to say the least. And while that makes it worth taking the time, I am not sure it really knows what to do with that original idea.

Nacho Vigalondo tells a smartly imaginative story through characters that demonstrate human nature to the fullest.

The whole affair feels as though Vigalondo is more concerned with scoring feminist ally points than in spinning a plausible narrative, and even the staunchest misandrist will struggle to get on board with the film's final act. Read more
