Oro's reviews
Media reviews
El Mundo
'Oro' is a counter-western with more violence than epic, an anthology of executions, one of the most bloody stories I've ever seen.
Cinemanía
Agustin Diaz Yanes' presentation works fine; left to their fate, the large dozen of harrowing characters of 'Oro', well equipped with a convincing initial revertial discharge, have a difficult narrative evolution: they repeat the same movement and the peripeteia becomes routine by the moment.
ABC
['Oro'] buries you in that progressive decomposition of the human side of the men when uncertainty, fear, cruelty and distortion of principles and purposes corner them[...]. But it also causes a reflection: what we were, what we are.
Fotogramas
'Oro' is a worthy portrait of America's conquest... Seen from disenchantment and mysery.
El Periódico
The conquerors' adventure reduced to a chimera, a collective delirium. Better on the ways than the heart.
El País
Facing its obvious virtues, which aren't few, there's also something in 'Oro' that makes it go off the track: its inconsistency.
