Trueba is determined to give every actor, cameraman and grip a few scenes in which to shine, resulting in an overstuffed story that staggers from subplot to subplot.August 15, 2017
Like the tortoise and the hare, it takes so long to get going that the end is one mad, unsuccessful dash.August 16, 2017
Set in Franco's Spain, this self-referential film-within-a-film is painfully dated and unfunny, and its mishmash of genres is even more off-putting.September 16, 2017
A well-acted, but overlong, clunky, and underwhelming satire.August 22, 2017
This bittersweet political satire uncovers the shameful collusion of Hollywood with Franco back then - the roots of fascism in this country today. And Penelope as a new kind of anti-fascist female action hero - move over Wonder Woman and Atomic Blonde.August 17, 2017
Though "The Queen of Spain" looks terrific and features a warm, glamorous performance by Penélope Cruz, that promise is fulfilled only fitfully in this valentine to moviemaking.September 07, 2017
Tonally, the movie can never quite find its footing.October 06, 2017
Watching here feels akin to peeking at a private love letter from an artist to his art, an experience that will fascinate some and off-put many.August 15, 2017
Queen is the sort of project which marketing teams like to talk about as "classic" while secretly knowing that it's just old-fashioned.August 15, 2017
The Queen may be a treat for those familiar with Dreams, but this uneven film glosses over too much - and runs too long.August 18, 2017
The Queen of Spain can only offer scant entertainment for movie buffs and non-movie buffs alike.August 25, 2017
It's fun, involving off-set sexual escapades and a scheme to rescue a back-from-the-dead film director from a work camp.
