Awful. Al Pacino what were you thinking? Oh ..right...money.

Put aside your feelings about black and white subtitled foreign films and give it a look. It's hardly Infinity War but the simple story of a Mexican servant girl and the family she works for (and is very fond of) set against the background of restless times in 1970s Mexico may just pull you in.

Phenomenal. Humorous. Tense. Ultimately very chilling.

As usual Denzel Washington's charismatic presence carries an ok film. Pedro Pascal is pretty good too but the film's desire to show Denzel's character as an all round caring good guy means that too many story lines reduce the other characters' impact. Worth a look though.

So So Sci Fi. Not Michael Peňa's best. Even though the wooden acting kind of gets explained later (spoiler alert...Not really..you should have worked it out before). It is still cliché ridden with two of the most annoying children possible and a final shot of an obviously toy train. Sorry.
