Paula Arantzazu Ruiz Cinemanía (Spain) Santiago Fillol addresses the fantasmatic and violent nature of this cinematographic event... with the postulates of Jacques Tourneur's staging pulsating in every fold of the film. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Dec 5, 2022 Full Review Paula Vázquez Prieto La Nación (Argentina) Never does the Matadero universe become a real manifestation of what's intended, and its characters peek out like declamatory marionettes spouting out slogans and other people's reflections. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2/5 Dec 2, 2022 Full Review Violeta Kovacsics Otroscines.com Matadero questions how cinema can capture the truth. [Full review in Spanish] Nov 30, 2022 Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine The narrative is nourished by a kind of metafiction that helps Fillol transfer the past contradictions of a country in a political parable into the present. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 7/10 Nov 29, 2022 Full Review Jonathan Holland Screen International Though infused with a calculating, cerebral air which sometimes prevents it from driving home its dramatic punches, enough gothic intrigue remains for Matadero to work well as a slow-burning political thriller with shades of Costa-Gavras.
