Divia (2025) 7/10 EDIT “For some reason, human beings have felt the need to prove to themselves that we can destroy as effectively as we can create, or better. Divia is a powerful visual archive of a war that feels like a mirage of the past. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Jan 23, 2026 Full Review Hamnet (2025) 86% 10/10 EDIT “Art not only saves us, it has the ability, unrepeatable by any other expression or invention of humankind, to immortalize us. An absolute, heartbreaking, masterpiece. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Dec 4, 2025 Full Review One Battle After Another (2025) 94% 10/10 EDIT “This movie comes to revitalize American cinema. How PTA came to craft it in this precise moment in history will forever be a mystery. A hysterical, frenetic, political, action-packed masterpiece with a flawless rhythm. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Dec 3, 2025 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 36% 8/10 EDIT “You know that urge, when you meet your person, to pour your entire life into them because you're afraid of being the only one who truly knows who you are. This is it. A romantic Christmas Carol if that makes any sense. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Sep 22, 2025 Full Review Moses (2025) 8/10 EDIT “"Moses" is the definition of "sonder", how everyone we see has their own story, background, joys and sorrows. But beyond that, it's a testament to the power of filmmaking to make you move yourself, even if in search of a story. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Jul 30, 2025 Full Review Sinners (2025) 97% 8/10 EDIT “Sinners' best moments shine when Coogler is able to weave his true intentions into this fucked up vampire fever dream. The music is incredible and Miles Caton gives one hell of a debut performance. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 7, 2025 Full Review A Weird Kind of Beautiful (2025) 8/10 EDIT “In one claustrophobic patio, the movie traps a group of old friends after a funeral. Secrets, envy, and mediocre adulthood spark toxic showdowns. A sharp script and fierce performances light this one‑location drama on fire. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 7, 2025 Full Review ¡Quba! (2025) 7/10 EDIT ““¡Quba!” captures Cuba’s LGBTQI+ fight amid socialist-religious tension. Voices from Santa Clara and Havana fuel the new Family Code, blending art, activism, and hope. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Apr 30, 2025 Full Review The Problem of the Hero (2023) 93% 8/10 EDIT “A sharp, intimate drama about creative control and racial identity. Set in one night at a theater, it explores privilege, authorship, and respect through gripping dialogue and stellar performances. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Mar 24, 2025 Full Review Confesiones Chin Chin (2024) 7/10 EDIT “The film plays around with the idea of listening to stories at a bar casually and realizing it's pretty serious stuff. It jumps through characters with little to no context but it is warm and welcoming too. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Feb 25, 2025 Full Review Pink Belt (2024) 8/10 EDIT “There's a sense of vulnerability when presenting yourself emotionally naked in front of the camera that speaks the truth in ways words could never. Aparna's work is beyond important. Magnificent and cathartic documentary. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Oct 29, 2024 Full Review The Birds Who Fear Death (2024) 80% 5/10 EDIT “Adam Breach, Carmen Moore and Graham Greene are a delight to see, but the film lacks of an emotional standpoint. We care very little about these characters moving through real problems with unreal resolutions. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Oct 25, 2024 Full Review The Green Knight (2021) 89% 8/10 EDIT “Lowery's ability to represent dark and medieval fantasy in an original visual way, while adding to the deconstruction of the hero's journey, gives a sense of power to the film. Patel was the perfect choice. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Oct 23, 2024 Full Review Rhino Man (2024) 8/10 EDIT “Violence motivated by greed will forever be humanity's lowest form of showing its animal side. These men live a war like all others, filled with uncertainty. The only difference is that they fight for the preservation of life. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Oct 22, 2024 Full Review The Low End Theory (2024) 7/10 EDIT “Sofia Yepes gives a powerful performance in a directorial debut that tries to pull the aesthetic of the Safdie brothers to a more Latinx experience. Doesn't add up much to the genre but deserves the watch. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Oct 5, 2024 Full Review Scrap (2022) 98% 6/10 EDIT “Vivian Kerr wrote, produced, directed and starred in her directorial debut. Ultimately this gave the film an authentic feeling, but made the audiovisual experience quite flat. Some good moments of silence amidst dubious acting. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Last Man Standing: The Chronicles of Myron Sugerman (2024) 80% 5/10 EDIT “"I want to make a movie about my life!" said to the wrong filmmakers. It's part documentary, part TV special, part "true crime" show. The editing feels like homework, in an almost extinct format of TV divided by ad-breaks. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Sep 6, 2024 Full Review Inside Out 2 (2024) 91% 8/10 EDIT “The beauty of "Inside Out 2" is that, different from all other Pixar sequels, it forces its creators to look inward to tell a story of character emotions that manages to resonate with every single audience member. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Jul 10, 2024 Full Review Simón (2023) 92% 9/10 EDIT “The most powerful thing about this film is its collectiveness. Simon's life is that of millions of Venezuelans right now, making its impactful story, soul and sentiment, inseparable from reality, and incredibly brave. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio Jun 15, 2024 Full Review Gunfighter Paradise (2024) 83% 7/10 EDIT “Pulling from Paul Schrader's characters in "Taxi Driver" and "First Reformed", "Gunfighter Paradise" allows itself in its best moments to include some dark comedy to its exploration of solitude. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 31, 2024 Full Review War and Justice (2023) 83% 9/10 EDIT “All in all, the film is about the people that are asking the right questions to turn humanity to its more just, humane and peaceful path. It doesn't stay in theory though, becoming quite visually brutal sometimes. Incredible film. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 21, 2024 Full Review Nathan-ism (2023) 88% 7/10 EDIT “"Nathan-ism" is a work about memory, about the fear of disappearing and an artist's superhuman effort to get himself inserted in the collective memory of human history. For moments it lacks stakes, but Hilu ends up seducing you. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 14, 2024 Full Review Earth Protectors (2023) 75% 7/10 EDIT “For moments "Earth Protectors" is a visually stunning piece that delves us into an artist's incredible creative process while leveling up our environmental consciousness. In others it feels like a TV special, good nonetheless. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 13, 2024 Full Review Challengers (2024) 88% 9/10 EDIT “We watch movies in search of something. "Challengers" gives us the answers we're looking for by making us feel exactly how an erotic sports thriller should. It hits all the boxes, as it becomes Guadagnino's best since movie CMBYN. [Full review in Spanish]” – Seventh Art Studio May 1, 2024 Full Review Mexican Dream (2023) 100% 8/10 EDIT “It's easy to disappear in the fine line of who we are before and after having kids. This documentary treats its universal story as if it were fiction, about a mom navigating through life for the first time. As all of us.
