Reflections (es|'''Reflejos'''|links=no) is a 2002 Spanish neo-noir crime thriller film written and directed by Miguel Ángel Vivas starring Georges Corraface.
Beleaguered police inspector Jaime Narbona takes over a serial baby killer case with the help of coroner Virginia and colleague Iván, with suspicions initially falling upon Lázaro, who Narbona had already tried to put behind bars in the past.
The film was produced by Vía Interactiva, Ensueño Films, and Calle Cruzada with the backing of Antena 3 and Vía Digital. It boasted a budget of 450 million Pts.[1]
Distributed by Columbia TriStar, the film was released theatrically on 25 January 2002.[2]
Casimiro Torreiro of El País wrote that Vivas demonstrates "manners of a filmmaker's with a keen eye", but is eroded by no other than himself "in his facet as a screenwriter".[3]
Jonathan Holland of Variety wrote that the film "succeeds in imitating the visuals of David Fincher but, despite a strong cast, fails to generate either suspense or characterization", with the script being "absurd".[4]
Fernando Méndez-Leite of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting "Vivas' making and visual atmosphere" as a positive point while citing Corraface's accent as a negative point.[5]
