Synopsis: dot the i, a romantic thriller with a dark comedic twist, stars Gael García Bernal, who shot to fame in AMORES PERROS (Best Actor, Cannes Semaine de la Critique), Natalia Verbeke and James D'Arcy.... dot the i, a romantic thriller with a dark comedic twist, stars Gael García Bernal, who shot to fame in AMORES PERROS (Best Actor, Cannes Semaine de la Critique), Natalia Verbeke and James D'Arcy. García Bernal, also known for his role in Y TU MAMÁ TAMBIÉN, can currently be seen in THE MOTORCYCLE DIAIRES, Golden Globe nominee for Best Foreign Film. Natalia Verbeke has recently starred in the Oscar®-nominated SON OF THE BRIDE (EL HIJO DE LA NOVIA) and the BAFTA® awardwinning JUMP TOMORROW. Rounding out the cast is James D'Arcy, known for his role in Peter Weir's MASTER AND COMMANDER. dot the i is the debut feature from director Matthew Parkhill, an award-winning novelist and screenwriter. A sexy love triangle forms on the eve of her wedding when Carmen (Verbeke) recklessly kisses an attractive stranger named Kit (García Bernal). Having recently fled a violent and volatile relationship in Spain, Carmen has found comfort and safety with her adoring fiancé Barnaby (D'Arcy); but her passions are aroused by one kiss from Kit and she is immediately torn between her emotions and her loyalty to the man she is to marry. Carmen's journey teaches her that things, and people, are never quite what they seem. This thrilling tale toys with illusion and reality, passion and artifice, and takes audiences on a suspenseful race through the streets of London. dot the i, an Arcane Pictures / Summit Entertainment Production filmed entirely on location in London, is produced by Meg Thomson and George Duffield. Summit Entertainment financed the picture and handles worldwide sales and distribution, with the exception of Spain. Alquimia Cinema is the Spanish co-producing partner. -- © Summit Entertainment [More]

Barnaby's game -- or, rather, director Parkhill's -- is, at best, a draw.

Dot the I is no different than the “emotional snuff film” it pretends to condemn, wiping out human emotion in favor of soulless twists.

While the plot whirls around with a number of deft twists and deepens into darker layers, the story is emotionally uninvolving.

'Un filme inteligente y perfectamente bien estructurado en el que nada es lo que parece'

The result is funny in its way, and in line with the movie references throughout, but ultimately the viewer is not left with the necessary pathos.
