Guy Lodge Variety May rep a sincere spillage of its creator's soul, but it's also a work of stony, audience-opposed self-indulgence ... A major disappointment from a major filmmaker." Jun 28, 2016 Full Review Oggs Cruz Rappler Diaz's 8-hour opus could be a meditation on love, on its permutations and defining role in the eventual formation of the nation. Jul 18, 2019 Full Review Eddie Falvey One Room With A View Lullaby boasts Diaz's typically impressive visuals, deep sense of time and place, and enigmatic approach to storytelling, but it feels loose, unfocused in places, and, again, too long. Rated: 4/5 Apr 12, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
