The 'A' is missing

Rating: 8/10 (26 November 2013)

The secret of your eyes is certainly a good film. The plot really can involves the viewer, but what i appreciated even more than the thriller was the subtle meanings and a couple of philosophical questions brought.
For example, the drunken friend of the protagonist couldn't have used cleverest words when he made analogies and metaphors to explain that what really moves the persons is the will, the passion, the love, don't matters what you do love. The protagonist apparently loved the woman, and all his actions about his past just happens because he was moved by the love. The allegory of the 'A' is missing is really, though it is perhaps more understandable for those who have Spanish as first language. I mean, i was kinda lost about the meaning of the word 'Temo' but it was quickly solved by a research on a dictionary.
The acting is indeed very good, Ricardo Darín is perhaps a good actor, and the entire cast did a good job. About the villains, they did very well their jobs and reached their objectives, that were being hated by the viewer.The antagonist was a very unlikable and arrogant character, and the murderer is really nasty. And not mentioning the fact that this film has perhaps one of the weirdest and most ambiguous twists in film that i've ever seen. Anyways, it's obviously worth a watch. 8.5/ 10
