Jourdain Searles RogerEbert.com It’s difficult to say more about 'Barrio Triste,' a film that makes its statements early and often, leaving us to wallow in the brutal truth of these young men’s lives. Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Ryan Lattanzio IndieWire There is beauty in the ugliness of “Barrio Triste,” but the film feels like a half-started sentence, a germ of an idea that doesn’t bloom. More to come, I’m sure, but Stillz’s movie doesn’t justify waiting it out. Rated: C Sep 11, 2025 Full Review Zach Lewis In Review Online Here’s a neorealist portrait of troubled Colombian youth that’s nevertheless routinely punctured by Korinian antics and the supernatural. It’s a mess, sure... but it’s so self-assured in its motley attitudes that it can’t help but impress.
