With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for anyone who remembers how big everything felt at sixteen and history and war-film fans. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young. Shelve it next to Mean Girls. It puts you in the middle of the fighting, and doesn't let you forget the cost.
- The mood
- Exciting.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 42 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
Thirteen-year-old Ramon is on the verge of many adolescent discoveries -- and the confusion that goes along with them. Shy and awkward, he's moved from town to town throughout his childhood and believes that life is about winning and losing. But he soon learns it's all about survival. Like Ramon, Spain is in transition (President Francisco Franco is about to die); it's a time of social upheaval marked by change, illusion and struggle.
