Mexican jumanji. Play or die. It all begins with the events of the distant past, when the grandmother of one of the main characters used the playing board of wish fulfillment, and in the end the devil locked everyone in the house. Getting out of the room was possible only by completing the game to the end, and it meant like a creepy creepy, which ... was shown quite ridiculous and fake, and I thought that we had a very thrashing Mexican film, which only turn off on the half and forget ... however, it is not.
“Wishes, desires” is a pretty high-quality movie about wish fulfillment, even strangely considering the country of production. What's worth noting is that the movie came out quite frankly not fun. That is, throughout the film there is a rather gloomy oppressive atmosphere. The desires of the guys are simple, the punishments for non-performance are also not ingenious, for the most part it is someone's death, like a sacred sacrifice, energy feeding to make the dream come true. In principle, the standard course of all films about magic boards and wish fulfillment.
The desires and punishments for non-performance for all actors are layered one on the other, as a result, the playing board sets the characters against each other with desires, prudently locking them in the house so that they could not escape. In general, the film is quite interesting to watch, if you make a discount that the movie is completely shot in Mexico. The devil himself is shown in the frame, executed in principle well, rather creepy I would even say... although it would be possible to do without it. A one-time movie, the ending is quite unexpected.
