Marty Supreme (2025) 93% EDIT “If at times Safdie's direction may seem a bit emotionally detached, and one might think it lacks soul, there's no doubt it has heart to spare—a passionate heart, pumping at full power, in a constant state of pressure and urgency.[Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jan 23, 2026 Full Review Dreams (2024) 90% EDIT “In the end, Dreams fails to fully unravel the intense mystery of its protagonists, but it does convince us of the power of storytelling as the only means of doing so. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Sep 26, 2025 Full Review Hard Truths (2024) 95% EDIT “If a Pansy exists in real life, let's hope she's surrounded by characters like these, and if her story is to be adapted for film, it'd better be with the warmth and moral conviction that Mike Leigh suggests in his films. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Sep 19, 2025 Full Review It Was Just an Accident (2025) 97% EDIT “Despite the horror of what Panahi depicts, his filmography is not at all pessimistic, but quite the opposite: it is a wake-up call, empathetic and, at times, inspiring. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Sep 10, 2025 Full Review The Girl With the Needle (2024) 92% EDIT “Unlike other European art-house films, this is a film with agile editing, tight sequences, a certain paranoid tone reminiscent of German Expressionism, mid-century Gothic, and some echoes of Eastern European cinema of the 1960s...[Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro May 28, 2025 Full Review Mickey 17 (2025) 78% EDIT “...the script occasionally spirals out of control and the tone can seem too light for its own good. But none of that negates the immediate importance of having a film like this...[Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro May 28, 2025 Full Review I'm Still Here (2024) 97% EDIT “I'm Still Here is exactly what its title suggests: a film about being and staying, the relevance of the act of memory and perpetual evocation, the relevance of staying, both in memory and as a subject of affection... [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Mar 3, 2025 Full Review A Complete Unknown (2024) 82% EDIT “What saves A Complete Unknown from being too formulaic and conventional a biopic (and about Dylan, at that) is Mangold's direction, surprisingly refined and intelligent, perhaps his best work behind the camera to date. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Feb 28, 2025 Full Review Emilia Pérez (2024) 71% EDIT “...[Emilia Perez] is a partly uneven, chaotic, conflict-ridden result. But it has a huge heart, and I think its protagonists demonstrate this in spades. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jan 31, 2025 Full Review A Real Pain (2024) 96% EDIT “It is difficult for a film like this to handle so many emotions in such a short time, but then, not all of them have Kieran Culkin in the best role of his career...[Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jan 29, 2025 Full Review The Room Next Door (2024) 80% EDIT “Swinton and Almodóvar create an unfinished and demanding story, but at the same time certainly profound and necessary. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jan 17, 2025 Full Review Babygirl (2024) 76% EDIT “[Babygirl] is a film of references, one that incites conversations, that blends films and genres to generate its own jarring force, in a kind of post-feminist turn towards the wild, an erotic thriller without middle ground [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jan 16, 2025 Full Review Queer (2024) 77% EDIT “And yet, with all its mysticism and confusion, Queer, like Burroughs’s prose, exhibits tremendous sensitivity, a very particular kind of beauty, a beauty that is addictive and violent, surreal and effervescent. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jan 3, 2025 Full Review Heretic (2024) 90% EDIT “What is clear is that, within its potential symbolism, the film suggests a critical look at the anti-religious discourse, and, in general, a fairly reasonable criticism of the world of academia. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Dec 31, 2024 Full Review Wicked (2024) 88% EDIT “Overall, Wicked stands out as a great lesson in how to handle the titanic adaptation of an almost unadaptable story. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Dec 11, 2024 Full Review By the Stream (2024) 100% EDIT “The director's presence, contrary to what one might assume, is intense: by fixing the camera and leaving it stationary, Hong Sang-soo tells us exactly where we have to look and for how long... [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Oct 29, 2024 Full Review Dahomey (2024) 97% EDIT “Using an attentive and unintrusive camera, Diop insists that the protagonists take agency and charge of the ups and downs of the narrative. There is no better connective tissue than the protagonists' voices. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Oct 22, 2024 Full Review The Substance (2024) 89% EDIT “An intuition bomb and thought experiment that lasts much longer than the average audience can handle. Those who are sensitive may choose to watch an episode of Botched instead. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Oct 8, 2024 Full Review Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga (2024) 90% EDIT “While Furiosa doesn't end up being suggestive with what it wants to say, it says it in the coolest way. It is stylish, roars with abandonment, and imposes its presence. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Jun 13, 2024 Full Review Challengers (2024) 88% EDIT “It's a film about tennis and desire, and how both can be one even when the characters are oblivious to it. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro May 9, 2024 Full Review Civil War (2024) 81% EDIT “Humanitarian disaster, far-right fever, crisis of journalism, and the fall of American hyper-imperialism. This may be a necessary blockbuster. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Apr 26, 2024 Full Review Muerto de Risa (2023) EDIT “Though an imperfect movie in need of touch-ups, Muerto de Risa delivers sufficient memorable material. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Feb 1, 2024 Full Review Strange Way of Life (2023) 78% EDIT “Though imperfect and not so memorable, as expected from Almodóvar, the story is marked by a raw exploration of feelings and contradictions. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Nov 3, 2023 Full Review Sound of Freedom (2023) 58% EDIT “... if we're honest, the movie is particularly mediocre or perhaps even bad, or very bad, depending on your mood (and beliefs). [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Sep 25, 2023 Full Review Annette (2021) 72% EDIT “At times, it seems that Annette gets confused amongst its own numerous allegories and narrative games. [Full review in Spanish]” – Cinencuentro Aug 24, 2023 Full Review
