The Virgin of the Quarry Lake (2025) 84% 4/5 EDIT “[Laura Casabé's] meticulous approach makes the dark progression of 'The Virgin of the Quarry Lake' remarkable, continuing a new wave of Argentine horror willing to delve into murky, even violent and disturbing, territory. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Jan 29, 2026 Full Review Late Shift (2025) 97% 4/5 EDIT “The film is barely an hour and a half long, yet it conveys a sense of a real-time accumulation of problems and urgent situations thanks to its solid direction...[Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Jan 27, 2026 Full Review Rental Family (2025) 87% 2/5 EDIT “The dramatic progression of 'Rental Family' seems cobbled together from scenes designed for the trailer, and this leaves a rather bland and cheap feeling for its ambitions of being an emotionally uplifting experience for viewers. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Jan 14, 2026 Full Review Baahubali: The Epic (2025) 100% 4/5 EDIT “It's brutal, thrilling in its revolutionary conviction, and clever in reinterpreting myths through cinematic language. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Mad Love (1985) 4/5 EDIT “'Mad Love' is frenetic and intense, both in its story and in how the restless camera follows the actors' unpredictable movements as best it can...[Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Jan 8, 2026 Full Review Death of a Unicorn (2025) 52% 2/5 EDIT “It's not exactly a feel-good movie , but it is terribly unsuccessful in offering anything beyond the gimmicky premise. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 30, 2025 Full Review Spinal Tap II: The End Continues (2025) 65% 2/5 EDIT “The jokes land poorly, and it's a stark contrast to the original film, which didn't let half a minute go by without delivering something hilarious. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 26, 2025 Full Review Kontinental '25 (2025) 95% 3/5 EDIT “'Kontinental '25' is another example of how the Romanian filmmaker's spontaneous sketches and ideas end up being as uneven as they are undeniably relevant. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 18, 2025 Full Review Roofman (2025) 87% 4/5 EDIT “Derek Cianfrance, a fixture of the American independent scene, delivers his most accessible and unexpectedly lighthearted film yet, weaving a quirky true story with a charming and stellar Channing Tatum. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 17, 2025 Full Review Good One (2024) 98% 4/5 EDIT “Its coming-of-age story is careful, yet also appropriately sharp. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 15, 2025 Full Review Golpes (2025) 3/5 EDIT “Cobos ultimately holds back his own punches, leaving the film somewhat unfinished despite his excellent references and his intelligence in relying on two superb actors. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Blue Moon (2025) 91% 4/5 EDIT “'Blue Moon' is a pleasant experience of just over an hour and a half, though at times it doesn't quite rise above its own limitations...[Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Dec 1, 2025 Full Review Jay Kelly (2025) 75% 2/5 EDIT “Baumbach becomes so enamored with ideals that he again displays a poor grasp of tone and his own pedantry, leaving scattered fragments that are meant to resemble characters. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 29, 2025 Full Review Alpha (2025) 56% 4/5 EDIT “...'Alpha' is a direct product of a generation that witnessed the handling of an epidemic like AIDS. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 29, 2025 Full Review One Shot (2021) 61% 4/5 EDIT “A steamroller that ends up being a kind of Call of Duty exploitation film, but one that is nonetheless enjoyable from beginning to end. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 24, 2025 Full Review Urchin (2025) 96% 4/5 EDIT “'Urchin' is exquisite in its approach, also incorporating welcome touches of humor and some ambitious, if occasionally whimsical, symbolism. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 19, 2025 Full Review Train Dreams (2025) 95% 2/5 EDIT “...[Train Dreams] resorts to a voice-over that is one of the worst uses of this device in recent cinema. One that explains everything...because Bentley doesn't believe he can tell the story through images and dramatic conflict. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 14, 2025 Full Review Ballad of a Small Player (2025) 49% 2/5 EDIT “Ballad of a Small Player ends up being unsatisfying because it fails to achieve the entertainment value of the director's two previous film...[Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 14, 2025 Full Review The Mastermind (2025) 90% 4/5 EDIT “It's another superb exploration of the male psyche that uses the period setting to speak to a timeless attitude, with Reichardt once again proving herself to be one of the most unique and underrated voices in American cinema. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 7, 2025 Full Review Los Tigres (2025) 3/5 EDIT “It all seems like the perfect recipe for another powerful, signature thriller, but something appears to have been lost during the immersion process, leaving a less enthusiastic overall impression than usual. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Frankenstein (2025) 85% 4/5 EDIT “It's not that 'Frankenstein' succeeds in attempting a lofty and complex conception of Shelley's story, but it does manage, amidst its stumbles,...to be an entertaining and even stimulating retelling. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Oct 24, 2025 Full Review After the Hunt (2025) 37% 2/5 EDIT “Too harmless for the burning issue it considers , and too stilted to be entertaining. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Oct 24, 2025 Full Review The Woman in the Yard (2025) 41% 2/5 EDIT “Collet-Serra's style has impact and pace, but the story demands a stillness and restraint that aren't prioritized here. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Play Dirty (2025) 42% 3/5 EDIT “It has the expected bite of a Black film, though it can't shake the feeling of a lesser film...[Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Oct 6, 2025 Full Review A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (2025) 37% 2/5 EDIT “A Big Bold Beautiful Journey ultimately fails in its ambitions and also in delivering the various things its title promises. [Full review in Spanish]” – Espinof Sep 26, 2025 Full Review
