Peter Debruge Variety The “Neon Bull” director has always had an incredible visual sense, though his plots tend to lack focus. Not this one. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Jonathan Romney Screen International Centred on a winning performance from Brazilian stage and screen veteran Denise Weinberg, with support including international star Rodrigo Santoro, The Blue Trail is entrancingly unpredictable in its picaresque unravelling. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter What’s remarkable about The Blue Trail and makes it such a delight is that despite all the oppression in the air, it’s a movie filled with hope and faith in human resilience at any age. Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews About respect for senior citizens and their resolve to survive. Rated: B Mar 28, 2025 Full Review Rene Sanchez Cine Sin Fronteras Blending emotional depth and social critique, O Último Azul is an inspiring tale of freedom. Denise Weinberg delivers a heartfelt performance. [Full Review in Spanish] Rated: 4/4 Mar 18, 2025 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Pleasurably mordant in its critique of governmental propaganda disguising violence and inhumanity, Mascaro showcases lead Daniela Weinberg as a witty, resourceful woman who is far from ready to walk gentle into that good night. Rated: 4/5 Mar 17, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews
