The Bar's reviews
Media reviews
Fotogramas
The film is a dissection of microcosm: selfishness, instinct of preservation, mortal danger and prejudices go hand in hand in an infernal tour, always entertaining and better performed.
Cinemanía
De la Iglesia proposes a pill of social criticism to prepare a tense and concise account as it has rarely been tense and concise before. It is not lost by rare turns.
ABC
Both the situations and the characters, are form in the outline, the two-dimensional and the funny events within the tragedy.
El Mundo
Is a shame that after the first third of the film, as energetic as provocative, the chaos absorb almost everything. And it does it in such way that any dramatic progression is just thrown into the sewers.
El País
If the initial charm of 'El Bar' does not lasts much, the final part is unbearable. Everything obeys the delirium.
El Periódico
'El bar', for better or for worst, is an unmistakable Álex De La Iglesia's movie.
