Probably better than anything out of Hollywood

What an actor. Ricardo Darin is not only Argentinian royalty when it comes to acting. In my humble opinion (as they say) he might be the best actor the Spanish speaking world has ever produced. From Nine Queens to Truman – Darin is always unbearably good.

And this time he is better than ever. The plot: A team of lawyers take on the heads of Argentina’s bloody military dictatorship during the 1980s in a battle against odds and a race against time. This is beautifully shot and acted. Director Santiago Mitre does an amazing job.

There is not one second in this movie that is wasted. Everything is right where it’s supposed to be. Don’t be fooled by the fact that this movie is a court drama from Argentina. This is high caliber cinema. Argentina, 1985 should be nominated for an Oscar and Ricardo Darin should win Best Actor.
