Ernesto Diezmartinez Cine Vértigo A solid social thriller. [Full review in Spanish] Apr 1, 2016 Full Review Carlos Bonfil La Jornada This promising thriller opens painfully in a manipulative picture that denies villainy and extreme kindness. [Full Review in Spanish] Mar 31, 2016 Full Review Alonso Díaz de la Vega El Universal Even if it's not an extraordinary film, it does shed some light about the current state of affairs in Latin America today.

Luis M. D ‘El Patrón' no es propiamente un thriller. Es es un drama social bien actuado, con una excelente caracterización, un buen ritmo narrativo y todo sin exagerar en la dramatización. A diferencia del cine sociológico o cine comprometido —que es tan común en America latina —, esta película es mucho más sobria y profesional. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/24/23 Full Review Audience Member muy buena peli muy recomendable 9/10 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member La interpretación es inmejorable. super recomendable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Análisis estructuralista de un individuo de clase obrera. Excelente! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Triste realidad de algunos pueblos de sudamerica. Esta pelicula fue basada en una historia real. Una pena. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Understated crime drama which is all about the psychology leading up to the event. This is superbly filmed and acted and a real sense of the situation the economic migrants are in. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
