Confessions

Wasted premise! Bad dialogue and predictable plot.

The movie starts interesting enough but after the first half hour it turns into the soap opera version of the main premise just like the writers wrote a spec script with vague ideas to start working and delivere that instead of the finished product.

Where the characters do the most stupid decisions and delivere the most cringe worthy dialogue you can think of into a very predictable plot.

Even before the twist ending you know is coming You already checked out and couldn't care about it cause you are confident that it won't surpass the level of writing you have seen so far.

"Confesiones" is a film with an excellently written script, full of intrigue and surprises. As the name of the film indicates, the confessions are tense and intense and are accompanied by a couple of uncomfortable scenes. Carlos Carrera's direction is effective and masterful. The cast is first class, starring the wonderful Claudia Ramírez who gives one of her best performances of her career, Luis Gnecco gives a wonderful performance and says one of the most impressive monologues in the history of cinema, Juan Manuel Bernal plays his character masterfully and comes to be liked and Emilio Treviño demonstrates talent and that he is one of the best young actors of the moment in Mexico. The cinematography is well done, offering an atmosphere that intensifies the suspense scenes and the production design is top-notch. "Confesiones" is easily described as a masterpiece, a current classic and the best Mexican film of 2023.
