Peter Debruge Variety The “Neon Bull” director has always had an incredible visual sense, though his plots tend to lack focus. Not this one. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Jonathan Romney Screen International Centred on a winning performance from Brazilian stage and screen veteran Denise Weinberg, with support including international star Rodrigo Santoro, The Blue Trail is entrancingly unpredictable in its picaresque unravelling. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter What’s remarkable about The Blue Trail and makes it such a delight is that despite all the oppression in the air, it’s a movie filled with hope and faith in human resilience at any age. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Alex Billington FirstShowing.net Similar to the other recent beloved minimalistic story about an older person, Perfect Days, the film is an enchanting tale of rediscovering the magic and joy of the simple things in life no matter how old you are. Rated: 8.5/10 Jul 20, 2025 Full Review Samantha Schuster Cinéfilo Serial A harsh critique, but far from descending into drama, they see it as an opportunity to talk about unfinished dreams and the vitality and drive that transcend age. Excellent performances, choice of locations, and ingenuity. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 16, 2025 Full Review Stephen A.
