The film is ultimately frustrating for the unending opacity of Paulina's psychology. Go to Full Review
Simon Abrams RogerEbert.com Jun 23, 2017
2.5/4
Worth seeing, even if its basic plot repeatedly stalls. It is a thoughtful movie, but not necessarily a fulfilling one. Go to Full Review
Ken Jaworowski New York Times Jun 22, 2017
As stinging as a slap in the face, "Paulina" feels as if it's waking you from a stupor, then shaking you, demanding that you ask yourself some impossible questions about idealism and justice. Go to Full Review

Paulina, the character of Dolores Fonzi, deserves the attention and not the judgment of the viewer. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

4/5
Fonzi's performance is perfectly judged; she knows when to hold back, convincing us of her character's sanity, and yet we never lose sight of her strength, of her power. Go to Full Review

Luke R Jan 19, 2019 Depressing, Disturbing. I'm Argentinian and love to watch Argentina's movies.. but Dolores Fonzi in my point of view was irritating, stupid. She tried to be a hero and it wasn't helpful with anyone. She was the victim.. but I couldn't feel sad for her, because her pride. Unrealistic and depressing... she hurts everybody who loves her.
