Reception
Casimiro Torreiro of El País wrote that Vivas demonstrates "manners of a filmmaker's with a keen eye", but is eroded by no other than himself "in his facet as a screenwriter".[7]
Jonathan Holland of Variety wrote that the film "succeeds in imitating the visuals of David Fincher but, despite a strong cast, fails to generate either suspense or characterization", with the script being "absurd".[2]
Fernando Méndez-Leite of Fotogramas rated the film 3 out of 5 stars, highlighting "Vivas' making and visual atmosphere" as a positive point while citing Corraface's accent as a negative point.[1]
