	T-Meter	Title \| Year	Review
4.5/5	85%	Once Upon a Time In Hollywood (2019)	Violence in the form of vengeance emerges abruptly at the end, but with a clarity befitting a director capable of capturing with love, nostalgia, and passion all his obsessions, games, and influences. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 26, 2019
3.5/5	100%	The Sower (Le semeur) (2019)	A surprisingly effective love story that underlines how people can change depending on their circumstances. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 23, 2019
3.5/5	79%	Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (2019)	Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark exploits multiple ways of shocking the public... The variety of stories and creatures add intrigue, rhythm, and tension to the film. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 16, 2019
3.5/5	77%	A Faithful Man (L'homme fidèle) (2019)	The film retains the festive levity, the subtle mocking elegance, and the rhythmic texture of a vaudeville from another time. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 16, 2019
3/5	60%	The Secret Life of Pets 2 (2019)	The film has an energetic rhythm and the animation is equally brilliant and playful. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 9, 2019
4/5	89%	Lemonade (2018)	Lemonade is a meticulous examination of the political and social mechanisms [in the US], which end up being more upsetting than a thriller. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 9, 2019
3.5/5	73%	Teen Spirit (2019)	The film often looks and feels like a music video -- in a good way. The energetic montages, neon lights, and sober choreographies express the passion and joy Violet experiences when she sings. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 2, 2019
2.5/5	67%	Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019)	The CGI technology at times works to the detriment of the general objective, making the missions and fights feel still and with very little soul. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Aug 2, 2019
3/5	55%	Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil and Vile (2019)	[Zac Efron] is capable of giving credibility to [Ted] Bundy's public persona on screen, exploiting his charm to deny the evidence of his crimes. Bundy is the classic and most disturbing example of how appearances can be deceiving. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 26, 2019
3.5/5	93%	Kusama: Infinity (2018)	[Director Heather] Lenz is careful to not sugar-coat the admiration she feels for Kusama to achieve a documentary that works in two ways: it's inspiring and at the same time informative. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 26, 2019
3/5	No Score Yet	Love Me Not (2019)	Love Me Not is a bleak story about human ambition that... pretends to work like an allegory of a nation going through an economic and moral crisis. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 26, 2019
2.5/5	42%	Stuber (2019)	The film has the seeds of an action comedy that wants to use modern sensibilities to analyze the tropes of the past decades, but too often perpetuates the stereotypes that it seemingly deconstructs. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 25, 2019
3/5	88%	The Golem (2019)	Hanna's growing maternal instincts... feel realistic and [Hani] Furstenberg performs her role in a convincing way. Even the relationship between creator and monster is unexpectedly nuanced. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 25, 2019
4/5	77%	Leto (2019)	Shot splendidly in black and white, which underlines the somber atmosphere of the time, the movie lives in captivating images. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 19, 2019
4/5	89%	The Image Book (Le livre d'image) (2019)	The Image Book is an intellectual "game," a broken puzzle, a confusing labyrinth made up of over 100 years of movement... which doesn't search for any type of linearity or equilibrium... but has a fun charm to it. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 19, 2019
2.5/5	53%	The Lion King (2019)	Eliminating the qualities of traditional animation results in disappointing musical numbers and silenced emotional reactions. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 19, 2019
3/5	64%	Child's Play (2019)	The film avoids being a display of technophobia and instead fulfills its promise of a killer doll and truly entertaining. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 17, 2019
2/5	34%	Poms (2019)	Despite its good intentions, Poms cannot sustain its predictable narrative. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 17, 2019
3.5/5	82%	Sorry Angel (Plaire, aimer et courir vite) (2019)	A piece of history and memory and a beautiful film about nostalgia. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 17, 2019

4/5	94%	Pain and Glory (Dolor y gloria) (2019)	The film is an obligation and necessity for all those viewers who throughout the years have learned to know and love Almodóvar. [Full Review in Spanish - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 5, 2019
4.5/5	98%	3 Faces (2019)	Panahi uses the conversations with the inhabitants to explore tradition and the way in which gender and violence are linked in patriarchal societies. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 1, 2019
2.5/5	33%	Chicuarotes (2019)	Some of the more serious themes in the film are shown in an imprecise and impatient manner that gives the impression that the observer is uncomfortable looking at these issues directly. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 1, 2019
3/5	65%	Annabelle Comes Home (2019)	It does not offer a new perspective on the genre, but it has an instantaneous emotional impact because it is the first movie of the franchise that takes place over the course of a single night, and its pace is much more stable. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 1, 2019
3/5	75%	Indian Horse (2018)	Abuse and trauma can be masked, but they persist and follow families through generations, and Campanelli understands the importance of hearing their stories that have been buried. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 1, 2019
1.5/5	14%	The Hustle (2019)	The various twists and turns of The Hustle only end up confusing the genre themes that the film aims to address. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jul 1, 2019
4/5	97%	Toy Story 4 (2019)	The new film is a revelation because it does not pretend to imitate its predecessor, but manages to recover the spirit of the first film of 1995 to offer a new round of light comedy and vivid adventures. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 23, 2019
4/5	86%	What You Gonna Do When the World's on Fire? (2019)	From the first minutes, the director's gaze focuses on faces and words. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 23, 2019
2.5/5	17%	I Still See You (2018)	An imprecise script that is continually disconnected from its fundamental purpose and makes the way forward tortuous. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 23, 2019
3.5/5	No Score Yet	El peluquero romántico (2016)	Ultimately 'El peluquero romántico' pays a worthy tribute to one of those spaces that are in danger of extinction, and rescues the figure of one of those "old-fashioned lovers" of those who no longer abound. [Full review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 23, 2019
3.5/5	91%	Gloria Bell (2019)	Thanks to the strength of the cast and the intense and refined leadership of Lelio, who adapts to the new times with renewed energy and an attentive look at the feelings of this woman, is not less than its predecessor. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 23, 2019
3/5	51%	Tolkien (2019)	Tolkien might not be as exciting as adventures in Middle Earth, but the film is more interested in the process that created that world. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 17, 2019

2.5/5	22%	Men in Black International (2019)	The story really doesn't take advantage of the "International" in its title. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 17, 2019
2.5/5	No Score Yet	Lupe Under the Sun (Lupe bajo el sol) (2016)	Although Lupe Under the Sun is an intimate film, it lacks emotions and has an unconvincing outcome that does not offer any kind of catharsis. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 10, 2019
2/5	23%	Dark Phoenix (2019)	Dark Phoenix is a reinterpretation of The Black Phoenix Saga that is superficial and simplified. [Full Review in Spanish] - En Filme EDIT Read More \| Posted Jun 10, 2019
