Time Out says
So when it’s suggested that an extra pair of hands around the house might be useful, Raquel’s self-preservation instincts kick in. Deadpan, handheld technique allows director Sebastián Silva to mine mundane situations for subtle hazard but also to take his story in unexpected directions, initial reticence preserving the potential for surprise. There’s a similar quality to Saavedra’s performance, whose Raquel is now downtrodden, wily and vulnerable. The result offers a fruitful ambivalence far richer than any butler-did-it cliché.
