I read the plot and it made me watch this movie. World learning that it's going to end in 72h? Sounds like a good Armageddon movie - see people's reaction, masses going panic, overall decay and destruction. Unfortunately - this movie is nothing about it. It's a story about child serial killer who wants to finish what he has started before imprisoned mixed up with the end of the world.Why would someone mix these two events - I really don't understand??? Maybe the idea in the beginning was to make an Armageddon movie, but then the budget did not allow the creators of the movie to realize all the ideas, so they came up with the child serial killer idea.I'm really disappointed with this movie and I would not recommend anyone to watch it. The two ideas that fuel the script could be very good if separated, but watching them in one movie is really confusing.

I seriously relied on Tres días, but it left me blank, completely blank
Well on the one hand, the idea is great. Three days before apocalypse left and it's very curious to see how people from small town spend their last days considering that they know about oncoming end. On another hand, this great idea wasn't implemented exactly like I expected. Undoubtedly it doesn't mean that if something didn't justify my hopes its bad thing. But in this case we got really weird picture. Weird due to the strange thriller elements, they were quite superfluous I think. And the punch line was entirely unrelated with idea of apocalypse.I've no clue what creators tried to tell by this picture it looks like they tried to pursue two aims simultaneously but didn't reached any of them. Both parts of the film (sci-fi and thriller) are washed-up; everything seems to be so confused that it's almost impossible to understand what this movie is about. I don't understand what's the point to make revenge or try to escape when u know that only 3 days left! Probably it tries to show us that it's very important how to die? Well, theoretically it's possible but I cannot get a necessity of revealing such concept by that way, particularly when u know that in real situation nobody won't care about revenge.Rest of all is OK, amazing operator's work, good actor performance, great landscapes, tricky suspense moves, but as I mentioned before, no clue in the plot. The psychological behavior of people on the threshold of apocalypse is much more significant stuff in such movies in my opinion. And the script doesn't provide it. It doesn't have what it takes. This film should offer much more then just contradictory story without any meaning.

Good camera and excellent acting - these are the pros of this dark - end of the world - film. Camera assists on obtaining perfect darkness to be served. Cones: film is dark without any composition contrast. Escaped child killer and avenger are the great threats but can these keep your attention when in the background the end of the world is going on? No, because the background strangles the power of the movie. Where are your emotions focused? Can you decide? No, because you need a plot balance to maintain the dynamics. If there is dark only it put you asleep. It has excellent actors and very scary camera, people who do their job very well, everyone except director who makes the movie looking like a film experiment.

I saw this movie in Espoo Cine (Helsinki). I'm still in shock. I really love it. I have never seen something like this. It's truly different, risky and original. A strange and hypnotic mix of genres (Sci-fi, thriller, horror, fantasy, drama), so well done, so powerful, so visual, so artistic, so straight, so special. Hard and tender at the same time. Yes, hard because of some intense sequences (there are some really controversial, violent, realistic and uncomfortable moments) but also moving and touching (this movie touches you something deep inside). Yes, this strange film is really hard on the surface but warm and tender under it (as the main character of the story). It's a rare, original and unusual tale of fears, love, pain and humanity. Since the moment it finished (with brave, brilliant and artistic shot full of sadness and beauty) I knew it: It's different, it's special, it's "unique".
