I know the type of movie that SECRET IN THEIR EYES wants to be. It wants to be an emotional, character-driven thriller whose twists and turns keep the audience guessing. It wants to be a film that is as compelling because of its unique storytelling as it is for its damaged and fragile characters. It wants to be THE SECRET IN THEIR EYES. Unfortunately, while the ingredients are there; a phenomenal cast, outstanding performances, a captivating narrative, a consistently impactful (if not actually consistent) tone; it just never reaches the lofty expectations that the original Argentinian version set.
