Goodrich (2024) 82% EDIT “t’s a fun, accessible, and well-acted film, with genuine moments and a cast that holds up even the weaker passages. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Nov 23, 2025 Full Review Die My Love (2025) 74% EDIT “Despite its excesses, the film offers a valuable starting point for reflecting on depression, particularly the kind that follows childbirth—a territory still full of silences and prejudices. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Nov 23, 2025 Full Review Belén (2025) 95% EDIT “Belén not only revisits a recent social wound but also illuminates it with sensitivity, courage, and a cinematic vision that leaves a mark. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Nov 23, 2025 Full Review The Mastermind (2025) 90% EDIT “True to her style, the director relies on silences, minimal gestures, and the viewer’s gaze to complete the psychological portrait of a man who steals not out of ambition, but from an impulse as inexplicable as it is human. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Nov 23, 2025 Full Review Romería (2025) 86% EDIT “It’s not a film for all audiences, nor does it try to be.

[Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Nov 23, 2025 Full Review The Smashing Machine (2025) 70% EDIT “Safdie brings his signature realism into a more intimate universe, where physical violence merges with the emotional; the raw light and tight framing capture both the sweat of the body and the trembling of the soul. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Nov 23, 2025 Full Review Splitsville (2025) 84% EDIT “The film questions whether fidelity and loyalty ensure stability, or if, conversely, emotional freedom entails challenges of comparable complexity. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Oct 11, 2025 Full Review Cover-Up (2025) 98% EDIT “Cover Up offers an honest portrayal of the ethical and personal dilemmas that arise when challenging power through words. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Oct 11, 2025 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 36% EDIT “As time goes on, the story slips into familiar territory and ultimately gives in to sentimentality, losing some of the emotional strength it initially seemed to promise. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Oct 11, 2025 Full Review & Sons (2025) EDIT “This is a work that weaves together dramatic tension, existential inquiry, and a subtle gesture toward science fiction, all while maintaining the human anchor that lends coherence and depth to the narrative. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Oct 11, 2025 Full Review Nouvelle Vague (2025) 91% EDIT “The film takes us back to 1960s Paris, when improvisation—both in dialogue and in formal choices—became a driving creative force. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Oct 11, 2025 Full Review The Life of Chuck (2024) 80% EDIT “That focus on lightness might resonate with a lot of people, but it takes away from the deeper apocalyptic vibe, and the constant highlighting of everyday moments starts to feel a bit too sweet [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Oct 11, 2025 Full Review Beloved Tropic (2024) EDIT “Favoring reflection and contemplation over melodrama, the film discovers in intimacy a space of resistance and unexpected bonds. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Sep 8, 2025 Full Review Materialists (2025) 77% EDIT “While Materialists may not delve as deeply into emotion as Past Lives, the film still manages to capture, with wit and sharpness, the tensions of love in the age of digital dating.

At times, the film turns into a thriller; at others, it becomes a satire portraying the idiosyncrasies of a small town [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jul 30, 2025 Full Review The Penguin Lessons (2024) 78% EDIT “It’s a story that highlights compassion and moral commitment, although it falls short of exploring the political and ethical tensions of one of the darkest periods in Argentina’s history [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jul 30, 2025 Full Review One to One: John & Yoko (2024) 90% EDIT “One to One revives a legendary concert, elegantly balancing music with the historical context, crafting a narrative that will resonate both: those who lived through that era, and the new generations. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jul 30, 2025 Full Review All We Imagine as Light (2024) 100% EDIT “In times when reality asserts itself harshly, Kapadia reminds us that dreaming is also a form of resistance [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jul 30, 2025 Full Review The Phoenician Scheme (2025) 77% EDIT “Despite its impeccable settings and the relevance of its subject matter, the film becomes heavy-handed and lacks a solid narrative to support its elaborate visual display [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jul 30, 2025 Full Review The Mysterious Gaze of the Flamingo (2025) 95% EDIT “The handling of emotions is one of Céspedes' greatest strengths, as he manages to balance the drama with moments of satire and music, easing the tension without losing the emotional impact.

[Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jun 12, 2025 Full Review The Secret Agent (2025) 98% EDIT “The film explores with nostalgia and satire those difficult years when the political climate was suffocating and corruption permeated even the most intimate corners of everyday life. [Full review in Spanish]” – El Heraldo Jun 12, 2025 Full Review Sirāt (2025) 92% EDIT “From the beginning, the film presents an underlying political critique, a backdrop that remains present throughout the story, suggested through the characters’ bodies, glances, and gestures.
