Paul Rotha Cinema Quarterly Can nothing be done to prevent the advertisement of a director's name in connection with a picture when he has withdrawn his hand? Feb 4, 2021 Full Review Samuel Brody The New Masses Thunder Over Mexico is, politically speaking, a distortion of content. The causes for its formal perversion can only be understood if they are regarded as flowing directly from the conscious inversion of Eisenstein's original intentions.

Desiree V Good movie represent what a true mexican family it is Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/02/23 Full Review Saulo muy buena película mexicana. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/27/23 Full Review Marcie B It ‘s terrible, don’t waste your time and money in a movie that depicts the wrong image of the Mexican culture and values. It’s tasteless, insulting, irreverent, offensive, and vulgar. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/04/23 Full Review Gustavus insultingly bad and too long! AVOID Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/10/23 Full Review Read all reviews
