Ben Sachs Chicago Reader The rhetoric is less compelling and the characters are less interesting. Apr 8, 2020 Full Review Boyd van Hoeij The Hollywood Reporter Never manages to articulate a more nuanced idea than the fact that politicians are people, too. May 28, 2017 Full Review Tim Grierson Screen International Although Ricardo Darn supplies the necessary world-weary gravitas as Argentina's untested leader, director Santiago Mitre fails to bring this ambitious endeavour to life. May 26, 2017 Full Review Jorge Ignacio Castillo The Canadian Crew There are two plots in this film: Political intrigue among Latin American countries, and the daughter of a president acting crazy. The former is far better than the later, but the movie focuses on the wrong one. Jan 27, 2020 Full Review Alexa Dalby Dog and Wolf Mitre's political thriller is at times gripping as it unfolds, though also at times confusing, but very well worth a watch. Rated: 3/5 Oct 18, 2018 Full Review Sergio Huidobro Cine Premiere Deserves to be seen on a large screen, with attention focused on its powerful supporting cast. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Dec 9, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Entretenida peli,pero no deja de ser una pelicula politica un tema que no tiene final 6/10 Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member It creates a intriguing atmosphere and captivating enigmas, but leaves not answers to the viewers. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Huele a Polanski y Hitch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Esta película empieza lenta y le cuesta arrancar, pero se nota la belleza y la sobriedad con la que está rodada. A partir de la primera hora, las dos principales ramas argumentales empiezan su excelente desarrollo, aunque muchos de los pequeños hilos que han ido proponiendo se van desvaneciendo hasta llegar a un final precipitado que deja muchas dudas en el espectador. Debo suponer que esa era la intención, mi nota es un 7. Versión completa en: Vaderexpress.blogspot.com Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member 3.3/5 The film presents a ton of interesting conflicts and plenty of political commentary, but at the end, and specially with THE end, really doesnt develop anything and feels quite shockingly, incomplete. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member El perfecto ejemplo de cómo abrir muchos cabos y no saber cómo cerrarlos. El guión viene bien hasta el final, totalmente decepcionante. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
