This melodramatic message film gets a little too didactic, but its heart is in the right place and the cast lifts it up. Go to Full Review

It's a failed attempt that shows promise but doesn't fully realize its potential, though it does manage to be a feel-good movie that brings a smile to your face. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

...My Dearest Señorita...forces us, as spectators, to recognize our ignorance and that the world is something much bigger and more complex than we already think. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

It doesn't always dazzle, but in its best moments, it achieves something more difficult: holding the viewer's gaze without judgment and, in that gesture, finding a discreet yet sincere way to persist. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Marion M @RT62595453 6h If you like a good, thoughtful, movie and this one unveils the hearts, minds and core complexities of todays non-heterosexually lives - this is a good movie. There are surprisingly reassuring, adept levels of communication. Who is on our side? The movie brims with vital and vibrant characters. Personally, I appreciated the protagonists perpective storyline. Handsomly directed and cinematographically agile, it takes a look at a seamy underworld where neither traditional Catholic society or alternative sexual lifestyles are glorified. Alongside each other we see a 'position' and 'choices'. The mechanisms by which we might all understand and care about each other straddle the frustrations of differing realities. The quintessential pulse of ordinary peoples lives, rolled off the screen for me. The more sensual scenes were handled well and I failed to see how anyone could be offended by any scene. It might have been better but it was certainly very good! The acting was very good. See more Kalissa H. @kali_416 1d Has great feel good moments with found family. I’m not sure how accurate the representation was, but either way it brings awareness. See more Read all reviews
