      Guy Lodge Variety Lightly fictionalizing a real-life state corruption scandal, Thierry de Peretti's well-acted, businesslike thriller reinvents no wheels, but sternly makes its point. Sep 27, 2021 Full Review Carey-Ann Pawsey Orca Sound There are many a film that has brought drug/corrupt police officers dramas to the screen. What separates this film from that rather large pile is the manner it is presented. Different from the rest. It is truly a cat-and-mouse game we get here. Rated: 3/5 Dec 13, 2022 Full Review Roger Salvans Fotogramas Articulated with long and suffocating takes, the film unfurls uncontrollably and hints at the impossible idea of fighting against drug trafficking... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4/5 Jul 21, 2022 Full Review David Pardillos Cinemanía (Spain) The magic of this anti-thriller... lies precisely in handing all the responsibility to its actors, but above all to its magnificently interwoven script that so well develops and demystifies authentic journalistic investigation. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 20, 2022 Full Review Carlos F. Heredero Caimán Cuadernos de Cine A praiseworthy but slight attempt.
