User Reviews

A big secret...

"Black Snow" is a thriller drama movie in which we watch a man who after was accused of killing his brother lives alone in Patagonia. Many years later his brother with his wife pays him a visit in order to convince him to sell the land he lives for all of his life in order for all the siblings to share their part from the inheritance of their father. Everything will change after that visit, from their relationship to the lives of everyone.

I liked this movie very much because it's a mystery thriller movie which has plenty of twists and turns that I believe makes this movie very interesting. In addition to this, I have to say that it's a highly mysterious and cerebral thriller, filled with plot twists that will keep you intense for the whole duration of the movie. I also liked the interpretations of Ricardo Darín who played as Salvador / Brother and he nailed his role for one more time, Leonardo Sbaraglia who played as Marcos / Brother and Laia Costa who played as Laura / Marcos's wife. The direction which was made by Martin Hodara was simply amazing and I believe his contribution it can be observed in the whole movie.

Finally, I believe that "Black Snow" is a very good movie and I strongly recommend for everyone to see it because I am sure that you are going to have a great time watching it and you are going to love it. Even if you have high hopes or high expectations for this movie I think that you won't be disappointed by it.
