Review of Ogro

Ogro (1979)
8/10
masterpiece on the last episode of the Franco dictatorship
28 January 2002
Warning: Spoilers
This is an outstanding movie of historical value. The movie outlines how ETA prepared and successfully carried out the murder on general Franco's right hand Carrero Blanco on 20 December 1973. This act may have contributed to the end of the period of dictatorship in Spain in 1975. Therefore the movie has historical value.

The movie is fabulously directed. The cast is OK. Gradually the suspence is becoming killing and erupts on the event of the super explosion. This explosion lifts the protected car of Blanco some 20 metres up, smashing it on top of a building.
