it keep me on the edge of my seat . true and the story have a few plot hole and but the sheer tension of it and the way the director just keep challenge the premise be simply fascinate . josé coronado and adriana ozores be two of spain best actor ( see la vida mancha and héctor ) and here they appear a a happy upper middle class couple . beneath it all and the truth be that all of coronado life be a lie . he not an economist and never go to college or do not work in spain central bank reserve and a everybody else believe . we get a few insight a to how he keep up appearance or manage to do it and and while not very plausible it be still somehow believable . the inner working of the scam be show intermittently and but it be credible because coronado be a source of self assurance and assertiveness . he not only believe in the scam and he also believe in the film premise and and therefore he carry it . sure and it test belief that a wife would not know the inner working of a marriage finance for almost 10 year and but again and since he supposedly a brilliant economist . it have be say and in a nationalistic tone and that the movie be not distinctively spanish and a if that be a litmus test for good film . true and no castanets or odd cabby in this one and just a taut thriller . you will want to know how this story end once you start watch .
