The Playlist
In a film steeped in loss and grief, Leonor Will Never Die, as the title implies, is ultimately a beautiful, life-affirming celebration of the power of film and art to heal. Yes, even ‘80s action films. - 75
Paste Magazine
As wacky as it all sounds (and there are certainly punchlines to appreciate), Escobar’s creation can be shockingly moving. - 70
Variety
Escobar is after something deeper than parody. She wants audiences to question how fictional strongmen have been idealized as real-world saviors. - 65
Film Threat
The film builds everything up just to smash it and laugh, like a kid playing with LEGO.
