Jay Weissberg Variety 3d
“Viva” is constrained by just how predictable so many of the characterizations are. The final shot, meant to feel liberating and, yes, Alive!, is so easy and pat that it intensifies certain niggling dissatisfactions popping up throughout the running time. Go to Full Review Marya E.
