Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
Faye K I have already watched it 4 times and i am sure i will watch it another many... After watching Sergi Lopez in numerous movies, i personally think he is truly gifted and persuasive... and many times the bad guy !!! For Paz Vega not much to say... i have already watched 7 to 8 of her movies and i am very impressed... the movie points out a lot of meanings and strong, powerful feelings. It is not another female abuse movie... a powerful movie with suspense, and great performances by Paz Vega, Sergi Lopez, Elvira Minguez and Alberto Jimenez. great work!!! PLus amazing songs by Clara Montes. It is definitely worth seeing despite the comments that do not suggest so.
Henry Fields If Javier Balaguer wanted to make a denunciation of ill-treatment against women he should've filmed a documentary instead of this movie full of clichés, stereotypes, unreal dialogs and the awful performances of Paz Vega and Sergi Lopez. I didn't expect much of Vega, she's so bad -although no one seems to notice- but I've always liked Sergi Lopez and I must admit that his work in "Sólo Mía" leaves a lot to be desire. Maybe he was influenced -in a bad Way- by Paz, or maybe Javier Balaguer has not the faintest idea about actors direction.So if you wanna see a decent movie about ill-treatment you'd better go and see Icíar Bollaín's "Te Doy Mis Ojos". That's a serious movie, and with top quality actors.*My rate: 3/10
bjorkpluto Paz Vega is just as famous as Penelope Cruz in Spain. Vega was excellent in the film Sex with Lucia and now she shines in Solo Mia. Solo Mia is excellent it shows the humiliation and the torture women experience due to domestic violence.Also, Solo Mia is very different from many Spainish films I have seen this movie is not about love or no latin lover this movie is about a cruel evil man Joquain played by Sergi Lopez that is insecure and hates his wife. Unlike typical North American movies on domestic violence Solo Mia goes BEYOND just showing Joquain beat his wife Angela once or twice this movie goes beneath your skin and SHOWS HOW HORRIBLE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS. Also, when Angela goes to court to get Joquain charged she learns Spainsh women have NO RIGHTS IN TERMS OF PROTECTING THEMSELVES FROM THEIR HUSBANDS. The movie also is a social commentary on Spainsh attitudes towards domestic violence but also about Spain's brtual sexism and misogyny against women. Paz Vega can now be seen in the Adam Sandler flick Spanglish but Vega is a true star already. I wish Vega great success in the future. I admire European cinema that doesn't sugar coat violence against women like North American films tend to do.
jotix100 Domestic violence is perhaps more prevalent than one realizes. People caught in this situation often don't have the guts to confront reality and never leave the relationship soon enough to gain their sanity.This film, directed by Javier Balaguer, was shown recently on cable and since it paired Sergi Lopez, perhaps Spain's best movie actor, and Paz Vega, got my attention.The situation presented here is a study on how Joaquin, an up and coming advertising executive meets and falls in love with the lovely Angela. One can see from the beginning this relationship is doomed. Joaquin takes out all his frustrations on Angela and beats her up on many occasions until Angela walks out. The best part of the film is the surprising twist we witness at the end. We realize that justice works in mysterious ways, but it finally arrives and Angela is a winner.Sergi Lopez is excellent as Joaquin. This actor has an intelligence that keeps amazing his fans from one film to next. Paz Vega is a beautiful, but resolute Angela. Elvira Minguez plays the pivotal role of Andrea, Angela's best friend, with conviction.
