The invisible danger

Rating: 10/10 (26 June 2008)

Most of us don't want to admit it and don't want to be defeated by such an invisible, powerful and gentle threat. Our puffy egos claim to control what's bigger than us, fail and mess all around... Who is making us think that we have threats, that we must get guns, fight, and erect barriers and camps. Who? We are trained, by film industry, to see actors with 19 century theatrical faces, to expect the devil with bloody rotten teeth, or a psychotic dirty beast or 10 Muslims with beards and turbans, as major threats to western nightmare, sorry democracy. Not the case here, no adrenalin shoot, junkies; That's why this movie has strong IMDb rates at 10 and 1 levels. I enjoyed it because I followed the characters as if I was there with them. It's very human, simple, natural, realistic. A form of docu-movie. It has a slow-fast pace, as the threat itself. A bit of satyajit Ray and Hitchcock in it. The little girl, though a latina child looks more like and Indian child, with her necklaces. Some questions: why large groups are killed, why boys are killed, why angry people die, why major cities are touched. I let you find the answer in the movie. Great movie.
