Most of reviews will say this is boring. I agree.
Even though the beginning feels intriguing, the slow pace and the incoherent structure quickly turns into an absolute pain to watch.
Even being a very short run of 70 minutes, it felt it was dragging and I was begging it to end, only to see if there was anything worth the wait, but there wasn't.
The cinematography is interesting at points, hence the few points I gave to the movie, but it's definitely not anything new or mind-blowing.
Calling this artsy is a bit of an overstatement, that's where I disagree with a lot of people in the reviews. It abuses this late trend of going "retro", using film to show grain automatically setting people's minds into the feeling of "wow, how cool is this", but it's been a while for me that's become old (again), it's overdone and it's even starting to annoy me when there isn't a real point to film in this way besides self-indulgence. Some times there's a point, and it adds up to the whole content of the movie, here it seems to be the only thing, along with the "retro" score, which was quite good at the beginning, given intensity to the atmosphere of the first scenes, but going quite bland after the first act.
The story is simplistic and broken in a way to make it seem to be complex, but it isn't. It's also very disjointed and confusing, not in a way that's enjoyable and requires thinking, but in a way that's incoherent, clumsy and boring.
The acting isn't great at all, and even if it creates some atmosphere at the beginning, it turns into a lack of connection with all the characters.
It feels quite pretentious to me, there's a lack of focus and a solid script and it abuses the "retro" trend to look cool.
There're some people complaining about the low budget showing, I don't think this script would have done better with a higher budget, the lack here was in creativity and skills.
The language diversity thing didn't make a point as far as I can think of, and it was really hard to understand when they spoke Spanish, which is my mother language. Another pointless aspect of the movie.
Can't think of much good on this one, I liked the very first 10-15 minutes and the poster. That's it.
Wouldn't recommend watching it.
