      Simran Hans Observer (UK) Though Brühl is an affable and witty screen presence, there's no getting round the fact that the film is a vanity project. Rated: 2/5 Oct 2, 2021 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) For arthouse enthusiasts keen to bypass the James Bond bombast, this social satire, set mostly in a grotty Berlin pub, should certainly do the trick. Rated: 3/5 Oct 1, 2021 Full Review Linda Marric The Jewish Chronicle The film feels almost like a mea-culpa from an actor who suspects he's outgrown his own local public, but is still keen to have their admiration, no matter how phoney it may be Rated: 4/5 Oct 1, 2021 Full Review Javier Ocaña El Pais (Spain) Agile and entertaining, a psychological torment, somewhat half-realized, particularly where it could've delved deeper into the two faces of a man who could have it all, [the film] still accomplishes a resoundingly sincere debut. [Full review in Spanish] Jun 22, 2022 Full Review Pablo Vázquez Espinof An interesting debut that any fan of good independent cinema should not miss. [Full review in Spanish] Dec 10, 2021 Full Review Ricardo Rosado Fotogramas The new director... takes advantage of [the script's] drama and black humor. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Dec 3, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews
