      sam I No ..don't do it, move on. It's one of those movies where you're waiting for something to happen that will make the movie take off.. and it just never comes. It's certainly full of people who are darkly troubled, and try to get more troubled. Just find something else to do, like read a book. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 09/07/23 Full Review b T More realistic than most. Well acted! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Pablo Trapero always had a different point of view of ther world, and their characters and situations are definitely amazing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Unique, unusual Spanish-language film. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review pasha a Not a complete storyline. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Pablo Trapero nos trae este suspenso basado en la figura de Sosa (Ricardo Darín) es un abogado que se dedica a sacar provecho de los accidentes que sufren las personas, con demandas jugosas, en representación de una fundación inexisente. Todo con el fin de quedarse con parte de la posible indemnización. Sosa conocerá a la doctora Luján (Martina Gusmán) con quien nacerá un romance basado en una relación amor odio. Muy bien lograda, y dura como caracteriza a Trapero. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Peter Bradshaw Guardian Some movies are described as explosive: this is positively eardrum-perforating. Rated: 4/5 Mar 1, 2012 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) The statistic that 8,000 Argentinians die in traffic accidents every year gives his film a context, but Trapero didn't need to work quite so hard to prove it. Rated: 3/5 Mar 1, 2012 Full Review Nigel Andrews Financial Times The film's bitterness of vision may owe as much to style as to content: this is not King Lear, it does not go deep. But a vision of sorts it is, harsh and haunting. Rated: 4/5 Mar 1, 2012 Full Review Diego Batlle Otroscines.com Carancho is a bold, risky, extreme, difficult film, made without fear, without marketing calculations and, above all, without concessions of any kind. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Aug 18, 2023 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine Carancho has what movies need: a compelling story, a lot of suspense, a great director, and two actors that devour the screen. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 8/10 Jul 31, 2023 Full Review PJ Nabarro Patrick Nabarro Comparisons between Martin Scorsese's crackling brand of fraught, moralistic cinema and that of Trapero's doesn't feel at all far-fetched.
