Netflix release of Colisión thriller

Netflix has announced the upcoming release of ‘Colisión’, a Spanish thriller directed by Daniel Sánchez Arévalo. The film is scheduled to premiere on the platform on October 30.

Set in Madrid during the 2013 economic crisis, the story follows a group of robbers during a bank heist that evolves into a dangerous situation involving deception, betrayal, and survival. The production is managed by Bambú Producciones and features a cast of prominent Spanish actors, including six Goya Award winners: Laia Costa, Karra Elejalde, Luis Zahera, Tamar Novas, Álvaro Cervantes, and Lluís Homar.

Following its release on October 30, details regarding the film’s structure have emerged. The narrative utilizes a non-linear approach, presenting five different perspectives of the same events, which include a bank heist and a subsequent car accident. This multi-perspective method is intended to reveal secrets and alter the viewer’s understanding of the plot as each viewpoint unfolds. While the film has drawn interest for its ensemble cast and its exploration of characters pressured by economic hardship, some viewers have noted that the shifting perspectives can lead to narrative confusion.

Within 24 hours of its release, ‘Colisión’ reached the number one spot on Netflix Spain. Following this, the film achieved global success, reaching the number one spot on Netflix global film charts. According to FlixPatrol data, the film outperformed several horror titles during the Halloween period and saw significant viewership in markets including Belgium, Canada, Switzerland, Ukraine, and the Netherlands. The film has sparked further discussion regarding its non-linear narrative, which explores different outcomes based on which member of the group dies during the heist's chaotic aftermath.
