Obra 67

About This Movie

Obra 67 is a curious little gem that dives into the intricacies of family and crime wrapped in a comedic tone. Directed by David Sainz, the film walks a fine line between lightheartedness and the weight of past choices. Juan 'el Candela' returning to a world that’s changed, while his son 'el Chispa' dreams of musical success, creates a dynamic that's both poignant and humorous. The pacing is pretty relaxed, allowing for character moments to breathe. The performances have a raw authenticity, especially from the leads, who bring a mix of charm and desperation. It’s this blend of comedy and crime, with a touch of mystery, that gives it a distinct flavor among others in the genre. And those practical effects with some of the heists? Charming in their own right, adding to the oddball atmosphere.
