Critic Reviews

The result is blessed with great performances; director Israel Adrián Caetano lets events speak -- and plead and weep -- for themselves.Full Review

Clark Collis
Entertainment Weekly

Turns the chilling story of Argentina's military regime and its large scale political murders into a tense, exciting escape thriller. Though functional on its own terms, this fourth feature by Israel Adrian Caetano feels hollow at the core, leaving a feeling of lingering disappointment over a missed opportunity to probe recent history.Full Review

Because Chronicle of an Escape doesn’t seriously scrutinize Argentine history during the years of the so-called dirty war, when the ruling military junta sought to eliminate anyone deemed hostile, it lacks a stinging moral authority.Full Review
