I liked this setting, it started sincere, narrated, introducing the protagonist and his peculiarities, tried to keep a mystery/suspense about the brother, but it didn't work very well, we know a little about the Bernidorm culture, however nothing very attractive besides, the story becomes dragged and long...

Some reviews said too slow. I found it reasonabke as Tim Spall wanders through different paths in search if his missing brother and surprising discoveries as well as himself. The finality as it all does not matter as much as comfy sunsets at the beach. I like the way so much is revealed at the end. Enjoy my friends..consulted adds to the interest.

The film seems to think puking out poor symbolism one after the other will automatically grant a commendable film. Just because you have symbolism doesn't mean the story should be forgotten. The ending is possibly one the worst Ive come across, nothing gets resolved, the characters don't undergo any development but rather stay how they were from the beginning and the film just abruptly ends. I will admit, the first 20 or so minutes seemed enticing enough to continue but after that I began reevaluating why I was sitting in the cinema theatre in the first place. It's a shame because both Timothy Spall and Sarita Choudhury are very talented actors and this was just a wasted opportunity.

Coixet tríes bravely a new poetic film with some good points (Sylvia Plath in the old fishermen' s Benidorm), but losing rhythm and falling inadvertedly in some image and lyric topics

This is what , in Spain, we call 'toston'. Although the start is promising, at the first third of the movie you start wondering if it is worth watch. Then around the second third, when they kidnap Tim, you know you have made a mistake. At the end of the movie you want to fill a complain form to get back the time you have lost.

Looks good but very slow paced and the ending was terrible. I love Tim spall and would watch him in anything. A real shame as the film starts well and story line ws pretty good but nothing really happens and then it ends !

Peter (Timothy Spall ) is forced into early retirement and decides to visit his brother in Benidorm after not seeing him for about a dozen years. He goes there and he can't find him. Discovers his brother owned a club and a butcher business. The film is grossly boring. It pretends to be art by comparing people to weather. The story needs more than symbolism to carry it. It needs a story that doesn't cause me to doze off.

Bon film !
