La Cocina (2024) 72% EDIT “Ruizpalacios captures the precarious existence of these workers – the dreams they nurture and the pressures of the toxic work environment – through an almost musical cinematic rhythm that’s matched by Tomás Barreiro’s pulsating score. ” – Sight & Sound Nov 5, 2025 Full Review Monos (2019) 93% EDIT “Monos is one of the year's most extraordinary films. Its feverish visuals rupture any sense of surface realism, creating a disarming, almost surrealist universe where anarchy takes hold.” – Sight & Sound Oct 24, 2019 Full Review Rojo (2018) 96% EDIT “A disarming allegory about middle-class society turning a blind eye to the excesses committed in the name of so-called peace and stability.” – Sight & Sound Sep 6, 2019 Full Review Pain and Glory (2019) 96% EDIT “Pain and Glory is anchored in a terrific performance by Banderas: minimal gestures and economical conversations give little away. As such, the mysteries of the past unfold delicately over the course of the film.” – Sight & Sound Aug 24, 2019 Full Review The Heiresses (2018) 97% EDIT “Through stillness, the smallest arch of an eyebrow and shift of an eye, Brun brilliantly conveys the disorientation of a woman who has always relied on others to service her needs and whims.” – Sight & Sound Aug 10, 2018 Full Review Zama (2017) 96% EDIT “A beguiling cinematic journey through identity formation in Latin America.” – Sight & Sound May 27, 2018 Full Review A Fantastic Woman (2017) 94% EDIT “An accomplished and deeply moving film, gloriously rendered with shifting harmonies, gusto, poise and heartfelt emotion.” – Sight & Sound Mar 6, 2018 Full Review The Clan (2015) 85% EDIT “The inclusion of archival footage of Alfonsn and General Galtieri is not only part of Trapero's attention to period detail but also serves to contextualise the film within a wider culture of memory politics.” – Sight & Sound Sep 23, 2016 Full Review The Pearl Button (2015) 93% EDIT “If, as the poet Raúl Zurita testifies, the process of returning the dead is about allowing the living to grieve, The Pearl Button is ultimately about cinema's unique way of retelling the past.” – Sight & Sound Mar 17, 2016 Full Review Gloria (2013) 100% EDIT “The film's pulse comes in many ways from Garca's brave and beautiful central performance.” – Sight & Sound Jan 5, 2015 Full Review The Secret in Their Eyes (2009) 89% EDIT “Darín's central performance is a consummate lesson in minimalist acting, deftly bypassing the tropes of the clichéd romantic lead and the crusading good guy.” – Sight & Sound Aug 17, 2010 Full Review The Orphanage (2007) 87% EDIT “This is a movie whose power and emotional pitch lie in the understated: the discreet performances, the lack of special effects, the laconic script.” – Sight & Sound Jul 6, 2010 Full Review Born and Bred (2006) 80% EDIT “Not everyone will find Trapero's uncompromising storytelling and quiet camerawork to their liking, but once more with Born and Bred he demonstrates a masterful ability to unite the physical and the metaphorical, the social and the sensual.” – Sight & Sound Jul 6, 2010 Full Review
