Reception

[edit]

Jonathan Holland of The Hollywood Reporter underscored as a bottom line: "intriguing but underachieved", Inside Love's "stab at profundity ironically leaves it looking superficial".[5]

Mirito Torreiro of Fotogramas rated the "aesthetically very well cared for, well narrated" film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting Etura's performance as the best thing about it while citing as a negative point that the two levels in which the film moves do not always match well.[1]

Sergio F. Pinilla of Cinemanía rated the film 3½ out of 5 stars, considering that by fusing the psychological thriller with the couple crisis, on top of a resort hotel setting, the proposal is imbued of "a certain degree of exoticism and originality".[6]
