Carlos Bonfil La Jornada 05/24/2017
A film worthy of being taken into account about the responsibility that adults assume, bluntly, in generational recycling, prolongation and predominance of all endemic corruption. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Jorge (JJ) Negrete Butaca Ancha 05/16/2017
In a nonexistent and narrative style that is scarcely fulfilling, Hernandez's film is only fortunate for a few moments, but its opacity and eagerness to dedramatize damages its moralizing effort. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Javier Perez Cine Premiere 05/16/2017
2.5/5
An interesting moral account of actions and their consequences, teenagers without boundaries and a decadent and corrupt society. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Erick Estrada Cinegarage 05/16/2017
A film about a very rough (real) problem and places it in a country where it will always be preferable to use influences rather than pay the consequences. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Luis Fernando Galván En Filme 05/09/2016
A severe social commentary about the irresponsabilities of the sons of the upper class spociety of Mexico and the way their parents shield them from everything. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Hugo Lara Correcámara 05/09/2016
A film about an interesting subject with many lose ends that neither the script nor the movie itself try to tie up, the characters feel cold and far. All of this affects the end result. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

12/13/2020 Una película corta, con una trama muy mediocre y actuaciones decentes; está bien para pasar el rato. See more 08/16/2017 A pesar de su dirección propositiva, su clara influencia de Buñuel, Van Sant y los Dardenne, "Los herederos" no logró escapar de la maldición de uno de los peores años de la historia del cine: el 2015. Lejos de la actual tendencia de "querer innovar en todo", este filme que pretendía ser novedoso se queda en los límites de lo ya establecido. Con lugares comunes visuales, y un arco narrativo con cabos sueltos, este filme hubiera podido ser mucho mejor. See more Read all reviews
