More than anything, this documentary is a celebration of Blades the Musician. His talent and contribution to the genre of salsa cannot be underestimated. Go to Full Review Diego Batlle La Nación (Argentina) 03/21/2019
3/5
Blades's brilliant trajectory doesn't need this type of pat on the back. [Full Review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Gaspar Zimerman Clarín 03/21/2019
[An authorized documentary] with all the advantages and disadvantages that this implies: access to the intimacy of the character but with implicit limits on what is shown or said. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine 03/19/2019
7/10
A film that points to classicism in the way of narrating a biographical documentary, without taking too many aesthetic risks down the altar to the "god" to portray the man, without makeup and with complete naturalness.

2.5/5
It frustrates me to have such an important, fascinating and intriguing figure as Blades, used for such a flat documentary. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Read all reviews

09/20/2018 Grandioso documental sobre el gran Blades, quien, siendo muy consciente, decide narrar su vida ahora, que esta completo física y mentalmente, para que después no se inventen cosas sobre su vida y obra, tal cual lo dice en el documental. Todo un fenómeno. See more Read all reviews
