The Te$t[1] (Spanish: El test) is a 2022 Spanish comedy film directed by Dani de la Orden and written by Jordi Vallejo which stars Alberto San Juan, Miren Ibarguren, Carlos Santos, and Blanca Suárez.
The fiction follows a financially-strained married couple (Héctor and Paula) who are offered a bargain by Toni, a rich friend of theirs: €100,000 upfront or €1,000,000 ten years from now. Héctor favours the former option whilst Paula prefers to wait, but they need to reach a common stance.
Based on the stage play of the same name written by Jordi Vallejo, the screenplay was adapted by Vallejo himself.[4][5] The film is an Atresmedia Cine, Warner Bros. Pictures España and Álamo Producciones Audiovisuales production.[5]
The film was presented on 19 March 2022 at the 25th Málaga Film Festival, included in the festival's official selection.[6][7] Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures España, it was theatrically released in Spain on 2 September 2022.[5]
Juan Pando of Fotogramas rated the film 4 out of 5 stars, highlighting "the wonderful ironic tone that it maintains" as the best thing about it.[8]
Javier Escribano of HobbyConsolas rated the film 70 out of 100 points ("good"), deeming it to be "very entertaining and easy to watch movie, light but also interesting and thought-provoking at the same time", while pointing out that the story becomes predictable towards the end, and that Resines' character has no place as a comic relief as negative points.[9]
Santiago Alverú [es] of Cinemanía rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, regretting that by the time the viewer gets attached to the three lead characters "magnificently" played by San Juan, Ibarguren and Santos, Suárez's character bursts in with a different tone, unbalancing the whole.[10]
