- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Though the film would benefit from further cuts, Machuca still manages to convey the frailty of convictions and the difficulties of growing up -- be it a child or a nation."
-
"A fine, exciting film that makes a bloody historical event live all over again by showing it through the eyes of children on the edges of the conflict."
-
"Thanks to a pristine eye for period detail and strong acting skills by the entire cast, there's no need for the script to press any points."
-
"That rare film that merges the personal and political without sacrificing restraint or intellectual honesty."
-
"[The film has] an unerring eye for time and place that's counterbalanced by an overly passive, if sympathetic, central character."
-
"One of those special films that broadens and deepens as it goes on"
