ClearMind (2024) 100% EDIT “At the very least, ClearMind has more on its mind than being disposable, and it remains interesting by virtue of trying to do so much.” – ScreenAnarchy Jan 16, 2024 Full Review A Life on the Farm (2022) 96% EDIT “"Goes from a budding backwoods horror picture to an uplifting story of an unlikely DIY guerrilla filmmaker."” – ScreenAnarchy Apr 18, 2023 Full Review Irreversible: Straight Cut (2020) 90% EDIT “Love it or (most likely) hate it, this is a movie that causes an impact and isn’t easily forgotten.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 17, 2023 Full Review Güeros (2014) 93% EDIT “A stylish and trippy film which at times has a sort of Trainspotting vibe, minus the heavy drug use and thick Scottish accents.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Refugee (2014) EDIT “By avoiding cheap melodrama and over-the-top histrionics, Diego Lerman has made a mature movie that at no point makes the viewer feel as if the movie is preaching to them.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review To Kill a Man (2014) EDIT “For those willing to give it a chance, they'll find that Almendras has given a fresh spin to an often-trod genre.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Good Old Boys (2014) EDIT “Villarán's intentions are sincere, and that goes a long way towards smoothing out the rough edges.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Guard Dog (2014) EDIT “A slow-burn psychological study of a difficult character, making for an interesting premise for a Peruvian film.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review The Fire (2015) EDIT “It has nothing to do with ghosts or monsters, but it's just as hair-raising and uncomfortable, suggesting horrors of a different, everyday sort. ” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review La luz en el cerro (2016) EDIT “Heavily indebted to local folklore and urban legends, La Luz en el Cerro is a solid and well-made genre exercise with a clear Peruvian flavor.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Epitaph (Epitafio) (2015) 78% EDIT “Stripping the film down to the essentials allows Olaizola and Imaz to focus on its most compelling aspect: a raw, almost primal story of man versus nature.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review One Last Afternoon (2016) EDIT “La Última Tarde is a film that gives a more humane and grounded view of Peru’s turbulent past, aided by some excellent acting.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review I.T. (2016) 9% EDIT “I.T. is really nothing original, adding a few high-tech bells and whistles to an age-old tale you’ve seen many times before.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review The Entity (2015) EDIT “Peruvian directors are just starting to try their hand at a genre which has been around for a long while. As more of them attempt to scare audiences, they'll hopefully improve on what came before.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Vanish (2015) EDIT “Thrillers are rare in Peruvian cinema; this one doesn't always succeed at building tension, but it's a respectable effort.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Two Kisses: Troika (2015) EDIT “Despite its generic title, which has little to do with what transpires, Two Kisses throws out enough twists to be worthwhile.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Wexford Plaza (2016) 100% EDIT “There’s some subtle humor to offset what could have been a pretty sad tragedy, and really, just like in real life, sometimes all you can do is laugh.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Neighborhood Food Drive (2017) EDIT “Jerzy Rose fully commits to his absurdist, black comedy tone and it works wonders; he wants you to point and laugh at these morons just as much as he is.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Birds Without Feathers (2018) EDIT “Birds Without Feathers is very perceptive about modern human interaction; there’s a universal truth behind its eccentricities that makes it a compelling watch.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Ruben Blades is Not My Name (2018) 60% EDIT “More than anything, this documentary is a celebration of Blades the Musician. His talent and contribution to the genre of salsa cannot be underestimated.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Temporada de Caza (2017) 100% EDIT “Avoiding even a whiff of schmaltz, Garagiola builds towards a climax that deftly skips the feel-good sentiment your typical Hollywood film would take for granted.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Rey's Education (2017) EDIT “Argentine cinema is particularly effective when it comes to urban-set crime yarns, and this one is no exception.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review Invisible Life (2019) 94% EDIT “There’s not a single second wasted in a story which is not just about the strength of family bonds, but also doubles as an indictment of old-fashioned gender stereotypes.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review The Womb (2014) EDIT “Forgoing cheap shocks and gore, the director is leisurely in his approach, letting the story play out at its own pace.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review The Price of Success (2014) EDIT “The most important part of any martial arts flick is whether the fight scenes are any good, and there's nothing to complain about in this regard.” – ScreenAnarchy Feb 3, 2023 Full Review
