CGiii Comment
Basically, this is a two-hander - a very verbose two-hander!
Interest tends to wax and wane throughout...due to the agonising, self-inflicted emotional masochism that Victor allows himself to withstand - how much more can people take of the greedy bisexual who wants all of the cake, all to himself without a guilty blink of his cheaters' eye?
This cliché is as threadbare as an antiquated doormat - which exactly describes Victor - a sexual doormat [although not so antiquated - and, he's not too displeasing on the eye - in fact, he could probably get anyone he so desires...yet, he plumbs for a cheating, self-absorbed scumbag]! Aaah, affairs of the heart...more difficult to understand than Fermat's Last Theorem!
Matías De Leis Correa prefers to tell rather than show - which is odd - because, as an experienced music video director...it's all about the visuals! Show, baby, show. Way, way too many words...but, in all fairness, the actors do a remarkable job - there's the one you'll root for [bless] and there's the one you'll rally against [spew]...but, who will come out on top? That intrigue does keep you watching until the bless-or-spew end!
