There's more than a few reasons to love 'Skizo'; the main reason would be that the film single-handedly resurrected the B-movie spirit genre. It's not usual in the Spanish films this kind of movie. Jaenada's plays a role surprise after his Academiy winner biopic's "Camaron", but this is really excellent.The plot of 'Skizo' is very simple: A trunked plain... but the (italian expression defines better) "mise en scene" is a risk not usual taking classics samples and opting for the heart but not for the heart-attack. An exercise of love to the classical movies for the latest hand-made films of the 50's. A really strange film into the actual Spanish cinema. Director's Jesus Ponce makes a second film one of most undefinable but interesting start of the latest Spanish movies own history.
When I first heard of this movie, I supposed it would be some cheap thriller like 'Ouija' (2003), but it wasn't. The story's about Gorka, who's the average teenager: he has a quite calm life, he works at the university cafeteria, and he has a crush on Susana, a spoiled, rich girl. To impress her, he asks "El Ivan", the punk in the neighborhood for help. What starts with a normal teenage story (although it's not THAT common, either - how many of you have ever asked someone to simulate a fight?), ends in a sensational thriller where everyone seems to be crazy. The acting is very good, especially Oscar Jaenada, Patxi Santamaria and Asier Oruesagasti's. Eloy Azorin and Bea Segura were okay, they did a good job, seeing how their characters were quite difficult to play (especially Bea Segura's character, who changes a lot throughout the movie). The movie was very good, especially considering that there weren't more than what? 10 actors? in it. I would definitely recommend it to everyone.
