3/5
Clearly, [Wladyka] has a knack for filming crime stories, especially where they overlap with tales of exploitation and the dispossessed underclass. Go to Full Review

This is good. This is very, very good. Go to Full Review
Sarah-Tai Black Los Angeles Times 02/11/2022
“Catch the Fair One” ultimately disappoints more than it enlightens. It fails to ask not what are the means of its violence, but the effects, or even its transformative potential. Go to Full Review
Robert W. Butler Butler's Cinema Scene 03/22/2024
B+
The depth of the characterizations, the aura of tragic inevitability, the way in which horrible acts are made even more unsettling because they’re presented in such a matter-of-fact, non-exploitative manner…all these add up to a truly gripping [film]. Go to Full Review
Lee Zumpe Tampa Bay Newspapers 10/31/2023
Shot in upstate New York, the film’s cinematography evokes a tangible hopelessness through bleak landscapes, grey skies, dense forests, and remote dwellings. Go to Full Review

7/10
From the start, audiences will find themselves hooked by Kaylee's journey and the fight that she's about to embark on. She's definitely tough, based on her once profession and physical appearance, but we also see so many other sides of her. Go to Full Review

Lilly L 07/03/2024 Gritty, raw yet powerful. Sheds a light on issue that’s not talked about. See more Todd L 06/06/2024 I was an extra in the movie. Being a pro fighter anything violent kali portrayed naturally. Her acting was serious and on point great flick. I just found out today she's in true detective 4. I'm litterally going to get HBO max today to watch. See more Bruce H 07/23/2023 The story of redemption by sacrifice, the ultimate stoic warrior. See more graciela o 07/15/2023 ...lástima el final.... See more Claire M 06/15/2023 Gripping viewing but it's quite short and ends abruptly, which makes for a feeling of having been robbed of a proper ending. Obviously there can't always be a 'happy ending' but the ending didn't fit the build up. See more Donny P 04/24/2023 Undoubtedly , this is one of the best movies of the year. It keeps it real and doesn't tie everything up in a nice bow tied Hollywood happy ending. The missing women in the US, Mexico, and the Indigenous population don't want to hear the whiners who complained during their reviews about the disappointing ending. GET OVER IT! That is the reality for the thousands of girls who go missing every year in this world. As was stated in the movie, "no one's looking for them, because no on cares". We know who runs this world and they were prominently displayed as the antagonists in the film. I guess that's why no Oscars and other awards this film is richly deserving. See more Read all reviews
