El menor de los males

"El menor de los males" is a mix of Spanish/black humor comedy, familial drama, thriller, and social and political commentary, and it is very fitting for the current political situation that is sadly common in Spain and, I believe, in all the Western world. It clearly shows the view that the common people have of politicians and people of power, and to do so, the director chooses a genre that is very dear and typical of the Spanish spirit and way-of-being: the realistic satire, with lots of dark humor, irony, sarcasm, and comedy that goes sour just like that, but all with a clear purpose in mind.

... but set in modern times, the story was just too creepy and confusingI normally do not review movies, but since I watched this based solely on its high IMDb rating, and the few reviews listed here, I felt it was necessary to give a different perspective.
