La leyenda negra Ratings & Reviews
Common Sense Media
Melissa Camacho
Mature immigrant-themed indie has strong female lead.
Film Threat
Norman Gidney
A starkly shot, black and white drama that carries a ragged sincerity...
That Shelf
Manuel Betancourt
La Leyenda Negra is a searing twist on the coming of age (and coming out) tale that feels like a new classic of U.S. Latino cinema.
Los Angeles Times
Carlos Aguilar
In "La Leyenda Negra," a Latino-centric project with queer notes and major topical value, her fight (and that of those she represents) is communicated thunderously.
AIPT
Nathaniel Muir
An important film that tries to tackle too many subjects. Definitely not a case of style over substance as the strong narrative is sometimes drowned out by technical issues.
Orca Sound
Carey-Ann Pawsey
Beautifully shot and staged despite its small budget, this black and white film wears its intentions on its sleeve.
RogerEbert.com
Monica Castillo
There's a shaggy energy throughout that gives the movie a sense of urgency.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
[I]t's juggling so much outrage and portent that it doesn't have room to follow any single thread through to its end. Frustrating, because you want it to be better.
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
La Leyenda Negra is the black-and-white narrative feature selected for Sundance that the current presidential administration doesn't want you to see.
The Hollywood Reporter
Justin Lowe
Full of heart, but wide of the mark.
