I have never seen an American military film with this level of political clarity and few with its artistic merit.

A final breathtaking shot that establishes Zonana’s “Heroic” as the boldest swing against an institution that we’ve seen in quite some time.

David Zonana’s stark and accomplished second feature shines a light on the normalisation of violence in Mexico, and on the cyclical nature which perpetuates it.

RTCaimán Cuadernos de CineOct 3, 2023

The film is revealed as an essay that warns about the dangerous instrumentalization and power of misunderstood masculinity, along with a society with fewer resources. [Full review in Spanish]
