Reviews

While sometimes the film seems to give in to its own rhetoric, some others it tends to be rather pedantic without being sufficiently clear in the way it presents facts. Capriciously leaping to and fro the past and the present of the story, BLACK IS BELTZA often seems to lose its focus, caring much more to add as many iconic names of the 60s as possible to the mix than to deliver a coherent narrative. The character design may appeal for its sharp and almost stark style but the devil-may-care, tough attitude of the hero who is going to save the day is honestly too much to handle in the long run.

As a result, BLACK IS BELTZA is so filled with events, historical figures, names, and locations your head is going to spin fast in the attempt to follow its erratic pace.
