Anna Smith Deadline Hollywood Daily 05/26/2022
The pace of Domingo And The Mist feels almost too leisurely at times, but it gives ample time for reflection and it looks gorgeous -- credit to cinematographer Nicolás Wong Díaz here. Performances are subtle but strong: Ureña has a quiet, humble dignity. Go to Full Review Ryan Coleman Little White Lies 05/26/2022

3/5

While [the film] offers few concrete resolutions across its runtime, it nevertheless achieves a difficult balancing act of reality and allegory, thanks in no small part to Meza’s careful and confident handling of his own, admittedly somewhat light script.

Well shot, and well acted, but nothing shines in a way to make it special, or leave us with the air of novelty. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews
