At nearly two hours, the film is probably about 15 minutes too long...But the final half hour is an incredible ride, full of surprising twists and the best use of flash photography in a climax since 'Rear Window.' Full Review

Rating: 2.5/5 -- An admirably innovative approach, it does indeed create a sense of helpless frustration, but as Julia's Eyes continues, the technique feels less creepy than contrived. Full Review

Several plot twists keep us guessing, however this device is overused and the final of these is bizarre, undoing much of the work accomplished. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Julia's Eyes becomes a little incoherent as it plunges towards resolution, but it's unerringly stylish and whole-heartedly suspenseful along the way. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- When a few of the more ludicrous twists arrive in the second half, there's enough goodwill generated by the thoughtful, creepy and effective setup to carry things through to the end. Full Review

Product Description:

A woman is trying to unravel a mystery that she literally can no longer see in this thriller from Spanish filmmaker Guillem Morales. Julia (Belén Rueda) and her sister, Sara, have both inherited a medical condition that is slowly robbing them of their eyesight, with stress severely aggravating the condition. When Julia gets the news that Sara has died, she has a hard time believing the police report that she committed suicide, and she and her husband, Isaac (Lluís Homar), begin looking into the matter. As Julia examines the particulars of Sara's death, she begins to suspect the actions of Sara's neighbor Blasco (Boris Ruiz), his daughter, Lia (Andrea Hermosa), and an aged woman named Soledad (Julia Gutiérrez Caba). As Julia becomes more convinced that Sara's neighbors were involved in her death, unpleasant events begin happening all around her, and as she comes closer to unraveling the knots that have tied up Sara's death, Julia inches closer to total blindness. Produced in part by Guillermo del Toro, LOS OJOS DE JULIA (aka JULIA'S EYES) was an official selection at the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival.
