It is a great story, there are great actors in scene, the soundtrack is impressive, but something is missing. Elements are just not glued well together, the movie feels like it doesn't know what it wants to be. It is still good entertainment and worth it. The Puccio case is memorable by itself, and Trapero makes it visually enjoyable with a main character that will hypnotize you with a cold-deep-blue-eyes. But what makes El Clan less interesting than previous works from Trapero is how superficial characters are and the low tension observed overall (which was remarkably good in previous Trapero's works). With weak character motivation it is harder to get the audience to feel what they feel. Suddenly you can't really empathize with the story you watch. I am hoping Trapero did this one for money and will come up with a more interesting personal project soon!
