Dubbed and subtitled in worldwide studios!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/05/25 Full Review Eye C Me impresiona la forma en que esta película me hipnotiza y no puedo dejar de verla, cada vez que la veo me gusta más y más. El Borras es un cagón de primera. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/24/25 Full Review Leprechaun K Rewatched it for the second time and liked it a whole lot more than how I remembered it when it first came out. This is the most visually stunning black and white film I have ever seen. The cinematography was top notch. It is a semi-biopic which makes it much more authentic and genuine. Some scenes are just bizarre but in a good comedic sort of way, which helps balance the unfortunate events surrounding the main protagonist Cleo. Fantastic movie and the Oscars are well deserved.
