The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch (2020– )

Much ado about nothing.

[3/10 · 14 July 2022]

I'm all for documentaries about the unexplained. But this is an embarrassment. It doesn't even fare as a reality show. Reminded me of "This is Spinal Tap", problem is it's not a satire. Chaotic, pretentious, shallow.

Antes que cante el gallo (2016)

Hands down one of the best contemporary movies coming from Puerto Rico

[8/10 · 5 December 2021]

Hands down one of the best contemporary movies coming from Puerto Rico. Impecable script, very good acting, steady directorial hand.

A coming of age story with a cold look into modern Puerto Rico.

El cuartito (2021)

Like a bad bar joke

[3/10 · 5 December 2021]

Like a bad bar joke ("a Spaniard, Argentinian and Dominican met at an airport...") this project is completely disappointing. Erratic script, mediocre acting and, surprisingly, bad direction.

An advice to scriptwriters, if you are going to write a story about another country's legal/immigration policies, do your research first. Nothing burst the cinematic illusion like realizing the story's "real" circumstances are fake.
