Review of Volver (2006) by Esteban G — 28 Dec 2011
The movie starts out slow as we get to know each character but the wait is worth the while as we see the character development and how the secrets unravel before us. Almodovar does a great job intertwining comedy and drama as the plot thickens.
I really liked the suprise twist near the end of the film. This film is a Spanish version of The Sixth Sense in reverse and without all the psychological scares since this movie was more about character development than chills.
Penelope Cruz is excellent in this film and her oscar nomination was well deserved. I enjoyed watching this film and how the story unfolds. Great Spanish film.
