Boring slow cutting, poor acting
1 December 2012 | by (London, England) – See all my reviews

To be honest I found El Limpiador (the Cleaner) boring. Supposedly dramatic, the basic idea drags on and the cleaning men in their white suits are tiring after half an hour. And it is filmed as if it were full of tension, but there's no great plot or story to be told (seen it all, been there). and the long scenes and slow cutting can't make up for that. Generally the movie drags on.The acting is at times adequate, at times terribly poor. The director is fresh from school, inexperienced in making movies and obviously not mature enough to make a movie on his own. He should have first learned the trade before embarking on such an undertaking. Sadly this one is a waste of time and money.
