Reviews
Pluskylang Great Film overall
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Agent Unprejudiced This is a story of real evil that takes form of a sick guy but the story of him is never fully told here and thats is a good thing really Julia is a beautiful women that has a big heart and know that something is not right in this place where her sister died The dark walls and sound let you know that some evil person is near and wanna take a bite of her but you never know how untill the very end This movie has a good script and fantastic cast Giulia y los Tellarini's version of "the look of love" sets the tone of the movie and is one of the keys here Everyone should see this movie before life is over
Parker Lewis Belén Rueda is beautiful in this intriguing and fascinating movie, and the scenery is haunting. It's mysteriously atmospheric and I wonder if there will be a Hollywood remake on the cards. There should be numerous stars lining up for this, perhaps Paltrow in the lead, and also someone from the cast of Friends to round it off.
spencergrande6 Julia's Eyes has some pleasures but is content to remain a confused and unfulfilling thriller; only its slowly descending blindness gimmick its one true saving grace. The premise has tinges of a giallo feel: the woman suffering from some disability and/or her lack of understanding/seeing being a central fulcrum of the mystery, and the killer cloaked in shadow and darkness like an other-worldly creature until its all too benign reveal.The plot lacks the ludicrous twists and panache of the best of the giallos and it lacks the strains of credibility to ground the better of the more straight-forward domestic thrillers. It languishes somewhere in between, neither a surreal horror dream nor a taut exercise in genre.
DogFilmCritic The Spanish horror cinema is one of the big surprises of recent years. The orphanage, and less-in measure-REC REC 2 showed signs of the vitality of a genre that scares when it comes forward with a Spanish accent.Julia's Eyes is a psychological thriller where a woman who is going blind in the middle of her job has the sensation that she is being strangled after that she shortly receives news that her sister who is already blind due to both having a genetic illness they both share, committed suicide (the myth that twins,can feel when something happens to his/her sibling at the same time)which is never brought again in the film,Julia who knew her sister pretty well knows that it wasn't a suicide but murder instead.This is an excellent hook for a thriller that, relatively speaking, could be related more with old mysteries of Alfred Hitchcock or the early films of Dario Argento.In fact it would not be unusual for Alone in the Dark (1967), Terrence Young film with Audrey Hepburn would have represented some influence in this story, as they have some points in common.The tension in the film is produced by great acting specially from Belen Rueda, the strong band and effectiveness of the sound effects,angle shots framing( there's a brilliant technique in the middle of the film that gives an idea on how a blind person interacts with someone that they can not see), photography, and the locations. it has some minor flaws in the plot but above all its a terrific film to enjoy
