On the whole... the film is well executed.

Critically Acclaimed Podcast

Not content to have one thing to say, 'The Wall of Mexico' settles for rambling about bits of everything before collapsing in post-party exhaustion.

One Guy's Opinion

There's a clever satirical conceit at the center of 'The Wall of Mexico,' but it's treated in so ponderous, pretentious and-especially at the end-preachy a fashion that the movie collapses under its own super-indulgent weight.

Rated: C

Shadows on the Wall

The plot's pace is a bit slack, but the imagery and ideas maintain the interest and leave us thinking.

Rated: 3/5

Jeffrey M. Anderson

Common Sense Media

This unusual political allegory comes off a little heavy-handed and obvious, but the lush, honeyed cinematography balances the mood, and it emerges as an interesting, somewhat timely curiosity.

Rated: 3/5

Joel Fisher

Battle Royale With Cheese

The Wall of Mexico manages to subtly discuss political issues without having to resort to over explaining its points which also raises the question as to how easily the events of the film could happen to anyone.
