Reseñas (5)
Una película con apariencia estudiantil, pero bien escrita y actuada, un buen trabajo de género. Gracias a su interpretación auténtica, sorprendentemente te acostumbrarás a los tres personajes no tan simpáticos del barco. La combinación de mentiras y relaciones amistosas dudosas o relaciones amorosas secretas funciona bien. La sorpresa final está forzada, pero en línea con la poca profundidad de la película. La sangre y las atrocidades en medida razonable potencian la atracción del público hacia el conflicto "íntimo".

Harpoon es una comedia de suspense bastante brutal, perfectamente sincronizada con El Faro, ya que ambas películas actúan como una guía para marineros sobre lo que hay que evitar cuando se está fuera de tierra, para no atraer la mala suerte. Que los tres protagonistas hayan hecho todo para que el destino les dé la espalda por completo prepara el terreno para una comedia muy oscura. [Sitges 2019]

Imagine Polanski's Knife in the Water on acid with a dash of cannibalism. This intense tale follows three characters, all with their own skeletons in the closet. Harpoon is a fun, fast-paced romp that can be both brutally rough and darkly hilarious. It expertly walks the line between black comedy and gripping survival thriller — never taking itself too seriously but still delivering some heavy moments and striking violence that will jolt any viewer.

A very pleasant surprise from Canada that came out of nowhere. The film may sound simple at first glance, but at its core it's a fairly intelligent and properly black-humored spectacle. A trio of friends are stranded on a yacht in the middle of the ocean, and aside from the classic struggle for survival, there's also sexual tension, rivalries and dark secrets that subtly surface. The actors are likeable and it is very entertaining to watch the hell they experience on the yacht. The film is also pleasantly gritty in the finale and there is one surprising twist. The narrator's monologues are also perfect, giving a guide to how to survive in such a situation, and it's unexpectedly funny and smartly delivered. 75%

Simple but fun. Three people pretending to be friends (or partners), a boat, jealousy, hypocrisy, lies… and a harpoon, that unfortunately doesn’t get as much screen time as one would expect given it made it to film’s title. But even then, three cunning friends manage to turn a trip in the open seas into hell. And when you believe you are in safe waters, with unpretentious, unambitious, a million-times seen tricks of the genre… well, I’d be lying if I said I was expecting the final twist. For that surprise, I’m rounding up the bill. 7/10
