The Secrets (2007)
1/10
So...

I was really enjoying this movie.I was loving the characters and how brave the story was, I mean, discussing the way women are treated under the patriarchal system and homosexuality in the same film, an Israeli film no less? That's pretty brave. But it seems to me that in the last 10 minutes the movie just changes out of nowhere.I don't know if this actually count as a spoiler but... -SPOILER ALERT- Those great characters are now completely unrecognizable and the story just takes a turn to accommodate a "safe" ending that wouldn't offend anyone and it felt like absolutely nothing was accomplished through the whole film.It may sound silly but this ending actually made me feel betrayed.It's as if the director got scared of making an ending that was coherent with the story, so instead he made one that said basically "no matter how hard you try to change the 'system', you will always fail",maybe that was what he was aiming for, if so congratulations.
