Interesting movie about a complicated relationship between mother and daughter.
So good. I had an emotional roller coaster. For all mothers and daughters wherever they are
Very beautiful dramatic and typical story from Almodovar’s production. Presenting complexity with a shocking surprises.
watched on the flight to spain i liked the mother daughter story
A modern tragedy. Comolex story about a woman with a hard destiny
A bit schmaltzy in parts, with a few too many unlikely coincidences, but overall a well-told and performed film about grief & relationships.
a flop. my problem with recent day almodovar is the disconnect i have with his plots. everything seems so grandiose, and artsy but for what?
Strange structure, pacing and plot. Takes a straight forward narrative and unnecessarily complicated it. Still worth a watch
Unexpected joy, small escale Almodóvar but very emotional.
Made me cry at the cinema. Almodóvar is a f. master.
