I'm Spaniard, so I was excited about this movie. I grew up in the 80's in a town close to Barcelona.
So, apparently the movie looks interesting and pedagogical to learn about the political transition in my country, from a dictatorship to Democracy.
To add, the view comes from one of the most famous prisons in Barcelona, La Modelo. But, sadly the result is just a formulaic, stereotypical movie. Overall, a wasted opportunity.
First, acting is correct. A bunch of usual great actors with a bland script.
Second, settings are great but repetitive. It looks like the budget was not enough.
Last, it does not add anything remarkable or new to a story that you can read in 30 minutes.
So, overall, not a great movie. Just 120 minutes of formulaic and sometimes boring story.
