| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 29, 2024

Perhaps Terrence Malick should continue working among the trees and the mountains rather than skyscrapers.

There's a lot to say yet so very little... [Full review in Spanish]

Malick gives us a three-dimensional portrait of a rare type of hero, told through a true story of faith, family, and the unquenchable human spirit in the face of tremendous persecution.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Aug 17, 2022

Ultimately, Malick asks the viewer to commit to the process of searching oneself and to have faith in our innermost beliefs, accepting that the unknowable quality of faith strengthens, not weakens.

| Original Score: 4/4 | Feb 22, 2022

Not quite a perfect film, but an emotionally transcendent one that will linger for years to come.

| Original Score: 96/100 | Jan 14, 2022

[A] powerful drama.

The subjugation of an entire community to the fascination of authoritarianism remains - without a doubt - a disturbing current issue. [Full review in Spanish]

One of Malick's more human efforts in recent years. It feels deeply involved in what's going on with its leads.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 15, 2021

Malick is one of history's great artists.

August Diehl is the dying ember, a spark of light, contained within the very core of Terence Malick's A Hidden Life.

It's a beautiful film that tells a truly compelling story, one that feels just as vital today as it did 70 years ago.

Malick takes us on another deeply spiritual journey, this time exploring the idea of resistance.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 23, 2020

It is deeply human. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 27, 2020

Simple or simplistic? Malick has chosen to aim for the hard clarity of a fairy tale - or a moral tale - here. For the spectator, it's a case of: take it or leave it.

Franz was unquestionably a hero, but his characterization here is curiously flat.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Jun 17, 2020

Watching A Hidden Life feels like both going to church and performing penance, like Terrence Malick wants us to submit to the same ideological journey as his protagonist.
