the letterboxd 2.9 on this is genuinely insane to me. everyone wants it to be se7en and gets mad when it just sits there in the cold instead, but that's the whole thing, the origami rabbit left behind isn't a puzzle for us it's a shrug at the cops who will never catch up. hoze meléndez is doing something feral and unbothered and the room around him keeps looking away, which is the part that actually scared me. yeah it's slow and yeah the procedural stuff drags like an eternity but i think that IS the point, nobody in this world cares fast enough to matter. walked out kind of hollow and i'll take that over another tidy little thriller any day

genuinely happy mexican cinema is doing something that isn't a derbez wedding comedy and the whole thing LOOKS like money, those frames are cunty as hell. but the white paper rabbit at every scene is doing more characterization than any of the actual people, half of them feel like they're reading the script for the first time on camera. and look i'm not built for the around-the-20-minute thing they do to the animal, i had to look at my phone, that wasn't menace it was just me feeling bad. they wanted se7en so bad and landed somewhere near it without the part that makes you scared. still kinda rooting for it though
