Look Away

"Look Away" mostly fails as a "killer teen" movie. The pace is too slow, and the mood too somber.

Director Assaf Bernstein's version of this in Look Away turns into a slow-paced horror film that aims for depth but delivers cheap thrills.

It might not be the savviest horror ever made due to its juvenile messaging, but its clean and cold aesthetics and villainous characters just about manage to pull it through.

This is an interesting film whose serious problems shouldn't be allowed to eclipse the good work on display. Nevertheless, you may find it uncomfortable to watch, and not always in a good way.

A risky and ambitious film that unfortunately loses its way and ends up turning into a forgettable film. [Full Review in Spanish]

The mirror on the wall doesn't reveal the fairest of them all in this lackluster psychological thriller that never gains much narrative traction despite a decent premise.
