Variety

The subtlety of the film's elegant craft, the restraint of ulk's characterful screenplay, and the superb chemistry between the two lead actors ... gives "The Interpreter" a respectful, quiet resonance.

A trip worth taking - except for that one twist.

Los Interrogantes

A film that directly impacts the viewer's heart, speaking of forgiveness and recognition of the victims through a road movie. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 7/10

Rubén Romero Santos

Cinemanía (Spain)

Nothing funny remains in an outcome that strangely denies the need for forgiveness that it has defended before. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 3.5/5

EscribiendoCine

Without looking for greatness or great epic pretexts, it ends with the same naturalness with which it begins. [Full Review in Spanish]

Rated: 7/10

Eye for Film

For the most part this is a lyrical and lightly handled odd couple road movie that achieves a subtle resonance, although it is almost scuppered by a sudden major tonal shift in the film's final act.

Rated: 3.5/5
