The Maid (2009)
over valued, slow and poor photography
25 November 2009
I signed up to IMDb just to leave my word here, and try to warn the other users. IMDb is great community and i relay a lot on it to chose what movies watch, so i just want to do my bit here.

The story is slow and plain, no big conflict, twist or what ever. Witch joint with the poor photography made it painful watch to the end. Also the story treat the maid/bosses dynamic in a very cliché way, as the characters are also a cliché representation of social stereotypes in Chilean culture.

The image is extreme low contrast, no bokeh, hand-held-make-you-dizzy camera. I think that was recorded in a real house and not studio, because the camera moments you can feel that cameraman need space to move and is not available.

Some unnecessary no-erotic nudes (erotic nude are always welcome) and sex jokes/issues.

Is really a shame for the Chilean movies industry, if you want to watch some nice Chilean movies go for Machuca, El Chacotero Sentimental maybe Kiltro or even Che Copete.
