Jonathan Romney Screen International 09/23/2020
The film is executed with an odd combination of low-budget severity - with much of the action shot in close-ups in the girls' cell and the inquisitorial chamber - and unintentional kitsch. Go to Full Review
Fernanda Solórzano Letras Libres 10/21/2021
It's very well written and acted. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Settled in the field of sensory cinema, the film conquers a territory of interest, despite certain extremism when it comes to finding guilty and innocent people in history. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Roger Salvans Fotogramas 03/25/2021
3/5
A delirious horror tale, aesthetically connected to the latest contributions to the genre, in which the most disturbing thing is always the daily horror. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Luis Martínez El Mundo (Spain) 03/25/2021
The precious tension of each frame is surprising, it enthuses the grave and deep gloom, and discourages the pedestrian ritual of an interpretive verismo as pompous and affected as it is sadly melodramatic. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

3/5
The sense you get watching Coven is that its creators intended very much to shock. Go to Full Review

Kirsty P Mar 8 Excellent portrail of the oppression of women during the 1600s. Highlighting the ridiculous accusations by men (and some women), specifically those who belong to catholic church and their desire for ultimate power over unmarried women. See more T T 03/05/2023 The Spanish inquisition was a horrible and barbaric time in human history where many innocent victims were needlessly murdered. That said, this movie was very boring and unnecessarily long. It could have easily been 30 minutes shorter without affecting the plot. After about 40 minutes, I was fed up and was ready to turn it off, but I decided to continue watching it till the end. Don't make the same mistake. See more Louis S 02/06/2023 Bewitching, and wonderfully acted, the movie goes crescendo to a magnificent and mad climax. See more Marta F 08/16/2022 Me encantó, no entiendo la crítica que dice que la trama era predecible. Obvio era predecible, todos sabíamos que la chicas no tenían ninguna oportunidad contra la santa inquisición pero ese no es el punto. El punto es cómo disfrutan de su última noche de libertad, el contraste entre la "pecaminosa" acusación y la pureza de su amistad. La pelicula muestra niñas, niñas a las que querían matar por que se fueron una noche a beber al bosque. Su acto de rebeldía no es un escape grandioso con giros inesperados, sino el no ponerse el gorro con forma de pene, no acusarse mutuamente como el juez pretendia, jugar, divertirse, usar las tradiciones de su pueblo que la autoridad considera "paganas" para tomar decisiones propias. See more 03/06/2022 Worst movie in the world ever See more 10/31/2021 An interesting story, with some threads of history making it feel more authentic and believable. The deception they build on to keep alive ends up killing them… It's odd, as you watch it, expecting it to be a Fantasy, but it never happens. The storytelling and overall feel of the movie are brilliant, and build well as it develops See more Read all reviews
