Stranger Eyes (2024) 83% 6/10 EDIT “The film seems more interested in maintaining its conceptual ambiguity than in delving emotionally into its conflicts. This constant search for answers ultimately leaves a sense of distance that weakens its final impact. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine May 7, 2026 Full Review Annabelle (2014) 28% 5/10 EDIT “Annabelle serves as a minor, low-budget prequel to The Conjuring. It doesn't pretend to be much more than that. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine May 6, 2026 Full Review 12 Years a Slave (2013) 95% 7/10 EDIT “...McQueen's film stands out as one of the most stark approaches to that period of American history, both for its focus and for the formal choices that structure its narrative. [Review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine May 4, 2026 Full Review Synecdoche, New York (2008) 69% 4/10 EDIT “The truth is that Charlie Kaufman achieves catharsis in his directorial debut. It's a catharsis we've often enjoyed in his previous films as a screenwriter, but here we suffer through Synecdoche, New York's inconsistent execution. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine May 4, 2026 Full Review Honey Don't! (2025) 45% 6/10 EDIT “With a film noir structure, we can say that the only "noir" element in this attempt at a crime thriller is its humor. The rest unfolds as a succession of ideas and situations treated with grace and a certain postmodern charm. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 27, 2026 Full Review Apex (2026) 67% 7/10 EDIT “It's a well-executed film, even better shot, but also predictable and, at times, implausible in its plot development. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 27, 2026 Full Review Outcome (2026) 28% 5/10 EDIT “The accumulation of ideas—many of them interesting—never quite coalesces into a cohesive narrative. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 27, 2026 Full Review Dead Man's Wire (2025) 91% 7/10 EDIT “Without abandoning his sharp social commentary, [Gus Van Sant] delivers a dynamic and accessible film. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 24, 2026 Full Review The Jester 2 (2025) 6/10 EDIT “It doesn't reinvent the [horror] genre's rules, but it proves that it's still possible to reshuffle the deck and deal again. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 23, 2026 Full Review Yiya Murano: Death at Tea Time (2026) 8/10 EDIT “[The film] is a documentary that meets the expectations of the true crime genre, but also expands into a reflection on the contexts...that not only allow crime, but in some cases turn its protagonists into celebrities. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 22, 2026 Full Review The Stranger (2025) 90% 8/10 EDIT “Far from softening or updating the original material, Ozon respects its harshness. The result is a dense, rigorous film...sustained by a precise command of cinematic language that also engages with the tensions of the present. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 20, 2026 Full Review Monument (2026) 7/10 EDIT “Monument is a powerful thriller with a clear and accessible narrative that focuses on its characters and their ethical dilemmas. From there, it constructs a message of peace for a world in constant conflict. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 20, 2026 Full Review By His Hand (2025) 6/10 EDIT “By His Hand takes the tropes of folk horror as a starting point and then shifts towards a narrative about identity reconstruction. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 20, 2026 Full Review Rough Night (2017) 45% 8/10 EDIT “Rough Night is a welcome surprise amidst so much forgettable, crude comedy. Here, excess is the means of transgressing the system, and at the same time, that very transgression is what grants them entry into it. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 17, 2026 Full Review Thrash (2026) 43% 5/10 EDIT “Thrash is ridiculous, but it's not a comedy—at least not intentionally—and this makes it difficult to connect with either the realism of the catastrophe or the absurdity of the premise. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 13, 2026 Full Review Trouble With the Curve (2012) 51% 6/10 EDIT “Trouble With the Curve remains a sentimental melodrama, with extensive dialogue scenes and the development of good and bad characters, one of the film's weak points. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 13, 2026 Full Review Torrente Presidente (2026) 8/10 EDIT “The film relies on some effective plot twists—including cameos from foreign celebrities—and a barrage of well-executed jokes that accurately target the vices and contradictions of contemporary politics. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 9, 2026 Full Review Sweetheart (2025) 8/10 EDIT “[Sweetheart is] one of those stories capable of connecting with the viewer through simplicity and lived experience. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 8, 2026 Full Review Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die (2025) 81% 7/10 EDIT “The ideas are better than their execution, and the story falls somewhere between conceptual provocation and conventional spectacle. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 8, 2026 Full Review Pretty Lethal (2026) 57% 4/10 EDIT “It fails to build either a powerful visual identity or a narrative that dramatically advances its characters. The dancers are reduced to interchangeable figures within a mechanical cycle of chases and murders.[Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 7, 2026 Full Review Torrente 4: Lethal Crisis (2011) 6/10 EDIT “Torrente 4: Lethal Crisis fails to deliver two or three truly hilarious sequences like the previous films in the saga, its only redeeming quality being the 3D effect. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 7, 2026 Full Review Torrente 3: The Protector (2005) 6/10 EDIT “While Torrente 3: The Protector doesn't quite live up to the second installment of the saga, Santiago Segura's irreverent style pushes the boundaries of the genre in this third part. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 7, 2026 Full Review Torrente 2: Mission in Marbella (2001) 8/10 EDIT “...Torrente 2: Mission in Marbella is better than its predecessor simply because it doesn't try to follow a genre and parody it, but rather to fully exploit its comedic potential. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 7, 2026 Full Review 40 Acres (2024) 90% 7/10 EDIT “With a budget of just eight million dollars, the film manages to capture attention with an immersive and overwhelming narrative pulse. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 7, 2026 Full Review It Follows (2014) 95% 9/10 EDIT “It Follows is a small gem of the genre that...invokes the deepest terror, without special effects or big budgets, with a great idea and a maximum capitalization of cinematic resources to instill fear scene by scene. [Full review in Spanish]” – EscribiendoCine Apr 7, 2026 Full Review
