2.5/4

The movie doesn't trust that an illuminating comedy of pathetic people can be entertaining for long, so it sprinkles some hormones on the proceedings.

The film loses some of its sting once the race narrows, but its outcome and the politically, emotionally astute fade-out are suitably devastating.

4/5

The Method is a funny film that touches on a corporation's responsibility to society, the price of ambition and the persistence of workplace sexism.

6/10

Based on a stage play by Jordi Galcern, The Method delivers a darkly comic take on corporate competitiveness.

Too pretentious that is impossible to not feeling disappointment after the outcome. It reminds also the penchant of film makers from Mexico and Spain to fill storytelling gaps with unnecessary sex scenes.

An intriguing and thoughtful thriller of the best kind. Basically taking place in just one room, the dialogue and layered characters keep the viewers on edge for the entirity of the running time.

una buena historia de la mediocridad humana, de la hipocrecia y la falsedad con tal de conseguir algo sobre los demas. Lo bueno es que esta bien actuada, lo malo es que se estira demasiado y se nota que es una obra de teatro llevada a la pantalla grande
