7/10
Maybe I watched it 20 years too late...
10 December 2020
I'd heard this was a masterpiece, so I thought I'd catch up on it. Although I enjoyed it (some interesting themes and eccentric characters), I found the twists and turns of the plot more suited to a soap opera. Maybe the issues were more hard- hitting in 1999 and hadn't been covered as much in movies, but watching it in 2020, I've seen better films deal with the subject matter much more effectively and, moreover, realistically.

Still, it was watchable and had an interesting plot if you could suspend your disbelief. Definitely worth seeing for anyone who has an interest in Spanish cinema like a do, especially if you're a fan of Almodóvar.
