Robin Holabird Robin Holabird The director follows the tradition of reducing dialogue and letting images speak—though often the visuals say little in story telling terms. Feb 24, 2025 Full Review Andrew Stover Film Threat Magoado is measuredly paced, emphasizing the things the characters don’t say to each other. Sainz takes his time establishing the setting and Peio’s self-imposed isolation before introducing Markel. Rated: 8/10 Aug 9, 2023 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills There is something beguiling about its combination of storytelling simplicity and retro travelogue-like pictorial appeal, recalling neorealist films of yore. Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Thankfully, regardless of my mind drifting throughout, the cinematography always brought me back. Shot with a vertical aspect ratio, Sainz captures some unforgettable images. Rated: 6/10 Feb 24, 2023 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Magoado is everything I want a film to be.
