Movie reviews of Victor Fraga

A very effective tale of urban life malaise, plus a lighthearted study of a mental breakdown, with excellent acting and a sturdy hand at the helm. Review

Impeccable in style and profoundly subversive in its subject... Review

Urgent in its simplicity. Review

This extremely violent Korean thriller tries it very hard, but it's not going to hit you in the face... Review

This is very human cinema, arresting for its simplicity. Review

A very straightforward eulogy to a living legend. Still a very pleasant, didactic and commendable one. Review

A combination of extreme violence and realism are not a surefire recipe for a good movie... Review

You won't die laughing with this extremely long, caustic and strange Scandinavian comedy, but the movie does have some arresting and clever moments... Review

Reveals the immense importance of Leon Vitali's work both before and after Stanley Kubrick's death. Review

Sadly these promises do not materialise. The film slowly morphs into a action thriller dotted with a few poetical devices. Review

Excels in ingeniousness and technical wizardry, but the story gets a little diluted in own complexity. Review

A gripping and disturbing film... Review

This charming British indie takes a peek inside the colourful imagination of an adolescent, and the outcome is delicate and dainty. Review

This Austrian drama about two gay men and a cat is almost certain to move animal lovers, but others may find it a little petty. Review

Spectacularly inventive and original in its technical wizardry and ludicrous self-satire, but it's not without shortcomings. Review

This lighthearted and unpretentious blend of romcom and career drama set in London lends a whole new meaning to the expression "boy next door". Review

This quintessentially British comedy will elicit laughter if you grew up in the British Isles... Review

Heartwrenching tale of organ donation is extremely profound and graphic in its depiction of a transplant... Review

Succeeds to expose both problems and the destructive consequences for the afflicted with a very gentle and effective approach. Review

A poorly crafted piece of American propaganda... Review

Their smooth anger is contagious. It’s cathartic. It’s a call to action. Review

This is a didactic and effective doc, if somewhat esoteric. Review

Andrew Tiernan's indie-neo-noir-flirts-with-occultism has a delectable photography throughout and a very nice surprise in store at the end. Review

This claustrophobic and intense fiction lends a whole new meaning to the phrase "insider's view". Review
