It's a comedy that intends to be funny, and whose lack of spontaneity creates an antipathy feeling towards the story and the characters. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson Feb 5, 2019

dave d @RT34924333 Feb 6, 2021 This is a Mexican adaptation of the 2016 Italian film and it's fine. For being confined, the gimmick mostly works. It is odd only one call or text happens at a time, but if you can get over that it's funny, horrifying and probably more accurate than we'd ever care to admit.
