Suicide Room 2011
Indeed, this movie had some unpleasant and depressing moments. But most of them only due to terrible acting and a story consisting exclusively out of stereotypes. Thus many scenes appeared unintentionally funny and in addition I never got the impression that the director had a clear idea what this movie should be. The result is either a good Coming-Of-Age film nor a really touching suicide drama.

Our Time 2018
Our Time is about the realisation of a failing relationship and particularly about the failing of oneself. In the dialogue-heavy and confrontational film many things are left unspoken. However, the constantly discussed jealousy and expectations inherit so much sincerity and words, that everyone on some point tried to express, but failed. Reygadas protagonists happens the opposite: they communicate and reflect about their feelings and their relationship to each other, but still can't escape their own struggles. They are aware of them, but unleash thereby disruptiveness, that always has lurked in their affection. The story doesn't come to a tragedy, but to something beautiful and deeply humane.
