Reviews

Bardem is one of the few actors who could really carry off this role: Blanco needs to be at once loathsome, reassuring, cosy and yet plausibly seductive -- and the Spanish star fleshes him out with brio and a nicely deceptive middle-age joviality.

Jonathan Romney, Uncut Magazine [UK]

This is Bardem's most fun role to date, a real chance for the actor to put in some great, detailed character work.
