“(BLU) One ot the simplest but richest Woody Allen´s. Great and expansive plot, narrated in fast pace (it contains the "I soliti ignoti" plot but then deviates), great lines and acting by Tracey Ullman (she beats Woody as only Keaton knew)...and Elaine May” read more

“(MU) If you thought "Dogville" was enough, ant the naked style of minimalist theatrical sets was ok for another film with another theme, there you have Grace involving in other shithoe, where confussions and fatalims ruins everything.

“(MU) Sorpresa boliviana de Diego Moncada, historia casi minimalista como el paisaje con arena y arbustos secos del chaco, sin maravillas, con gente que no se entiende pero muere junta, un líder extranjero que jamás departe con su gente, un terrible casi de sumisión e injusticia (la muerte de Jaci” read more

“(MU) Too long ; but not too reiterative because that's the idea that life also transcurs in the cotidianeity of personal transport, half of it with a young friend with other aspirations, talking big themes -life, a stranged mother, life- and one only alternative point of view, a drone over the plain” read more

“(OK) El "Wiñaypacha" boliviano; pero no es la obra extrema, minimalista por naturaleza, del trágico puneño Catacora que no persigue comentarios sociales sino humanos o espirituales si quieren; aquí Alejandro Loayza sí despliega, en gran paisaje, con balanceada economía estética de medios, en ” read more

“(OK) As a warning, in the credits says this a product of femminist imagination, and that doesn't mean the obvious (that it's fiction); but that characters are product of academic thought more than the situation narrated.
