Why watch this film?
If Guillermo del Toro (The Labyrinth of the Faun) and David Cronenberg (The Fly) had joined forces to direct a fable like Pixar's "Inside Out", the result would be a movie like "A Cria Sombria" (also known as "Hatching", its international title). The story is about Tinja, a girl under pressure from her mother to maintain the image of a perfect and successful family. One night, Tinja finds a strange egg that she decides to incubate, but what comes out of it is only the beginning of a sinuous spiral of terror. "A Cria Sombria" is a movie directed efficiently, perhaps not extraordinarily, which, through fantasy and terror, presents us with an interesting fable about growing up and exercising our autonomy.
