Story

El ministro y yo Audience Reviews

Steinesongo Too many fans seem to be blown away
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Ariella Broughton It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
